I'm glad he didn't catch the Gil Kane madness. in his later years Gil Kane was known for using a Sharpie to do the bulk of his work, his style was still visible but it really suffered.

Teenage Fansub posted:Art from 70 year old legend, José Luis García-López for the upcoming Action Comics #1000 It's the facial variation that really gets me. Every person is unique and expressive, with appropriate emotions clearly visible in their expressions. It's a subtle thing, but it's so damned impressive compared to the vast majority of other artists.

I actually prefer the minimalism of late period Gil Kane over his earlier work. Some of those Marvel covers he did in the Seventies are really good though.

There's a difference between minimalism and lack of care. His covers remained excellent but his pages were dire. Superman Distant Fires is I believe his final work on the character and it's just a sad, ugly book to look at.

You’re talking really late, not just when he got really stylized like around the Sword of the Atom era. Early Eighties is when I first was reading Infantino and Kane, and that style consequently actually looks better to me than the fine line Joe Giella stuff.

https://twitter.com/FedeItaliano76/status/986907299003453441 Was there never a comic adaption of Dune? Anyway that first picture was on the copy of Dune I read for the first time and didn't realize it was part of a series.

Brian Herbert was shopping it around right after the Dark Tower comics dropped and exploded. Nobody bit on it because if you're even vaguely familiar with Dune you know how batshit crazy it gets by book 3.

As a kid I read the first book, and then because it was the only other Dune book in my school's library I jumped into God Emperor. No one should read God Emperor in general... Edit: Holy poo poo, Marvel's adaptation of the Lynch film had art by Sienkiewicz. Why I have I not heard this before and read these comics?

That colorful ship in the thumbnail, I recognize that guy, I think I had a book of his stuff when I was a kid. Anyone know what his name was. There was a GBS thread maybe last year that was full of 70s and 80s sci fi drawings, I love that poo poo.

Hell yeah. He left a big impression on me because when I was growing up, sci fi design was either very dark or very sterile, it never occurred to me that starships could be colorful.

That's pretty sad. I grew up with my dad's library of 50s-70s sci-fi novels, lots of those had some drat gaudy looking spaceships on them. Some... "questionable" stories inside, but good spaceships.
