left or right?
>>
What if you don't prefer either?

>>79728756
Left since the guys who graviate towards the right usually suck big time at basic stuff like perspective, anatomy, composition, emotion, body language and general logic behind the action as well as the choreography of it.

I'm sure that wasn't their intent though.

animation-inspired art vs ugly house style

Right
>>
left
>>
>>79728756
Honestly? I good balance between the two.

I like the left for more expression,animated approach, but I like the right for variety and attention to detail.

A good artist I can only think of at the moment who can do it well is Immonen. He takes a simplistic approach but makes it feel realistic as the right but still energetic as the left. Plus he's extremely versatile.

Nextwave is a good example of his versatility.

Left. But it's not about prefering only "minimalistic" styles. I love stylized realistic art, or even non-stylized in some cases. I just don't like house style.

House style is not there to be admired, just to serve the story, which is fine, but underwhelming when it comes to appreciating the art.

Both can be whimsical and cartoonish but also extremely detailed at the same time.

I feel the other way around. Darwyn Cooke is enjoyable if simplistic. Allred is plain annoying in trying to be the next Roy Lichtenstein.

Not to mention he never learned how to draw faces that don't look stupid or downright creepy.

Mignola is pretty top tier for creating distinctive silhouettes and striking usage of negative space. One of my favourites for sure.

But that's Guy Davis. Don't know him very well, but seems a'ight.

I've also always been incredibly found of Otomo, Herge, and Moebius. Beautiful linework, all.

That's such a non-statement you sound like you have a fucking porridge for brain. How's the amount of fun artist's having translates into the quality of comic? Who said it's the ultimate measure of comic's quality? How do you know it's easier to draw? How do you know Cooke has less fun drawing than Fabok?

Left.

The right gives out detail like it's candy -- the end result is that you can't put small nuggets into a given panel/splash because the eye is already being heavily drawn to a hundred different places.

With the left (or things leaning towards the left), you can play with detail as needed.

Either.

Cooke is better for style, but if you're not trying to tell a gold/silver age kind of story, he's not as appropriate,

I don't get how anyone can prefer the right. The stereotypical DC house style of Fabok, Syaf, EVS, Reis, and various Jim Lee clones is so fucking boring. It adds nothing to the comic. The art of a comic should convey the tone, direct the eye, dictate the pacing, etc. The style on the right offers none of that.

Thankfully, DC has been turning away from that style more and more. I can only think of a handful of books in their line that could be considered in that same vein.

I don't like the transition between the first three panels. Facing forward -> back turned -> facing forward again. It's like they're stopping on the dime changing direction, it feels so abrupt, yet they're supposed to be running in a straight line. The last three panels are better.

I usually like Manapul, but I think that isn't the best example.

Except for the KEY fact that Fabok has absolutely none of Finch's flaws you fucking lair, he has surpassed him I'm every way.

While Fabok's WW right now is getting Universal praise outfit and body wise.
> Finch's faces are 80% pissed off looking grimaces.
Fabok has a good range of faces not a great one but a good range.
> Finch is EXTREMELY inconsistent between each and every project and during his JLA work was obviously using poser strongly (ironically his use of poser actually helped with his female characters as his Catwoman looked great in JLA)
Minus a few issues of the weekly Batman Eternal, I have never seen any work by Fabok that differs in quality on any genuinely notable level. And not a single page comes to mind that looked poser traced.

Except Alex Ross has been popular for over 20 years now and is still highly sought after. /co/ is the only place that has a problem with him.

Except something grand, dark and epic like Darkseid War begs for detail and shadow work something which a bare minimum simplicity fag hack like Cooke never even tries to use.

He's still doing a lot of Marvel covers and he's working in music too. Getting him as an interior artist is next to impossible to get him for.

But their work isn't emotionless at all you lying little shit.
You just can't understand subtlety because your delusional mind can't read anything that isn't cartoony and exaggerated.

He did all Secret Wars covers and is still doing tons of covers for Marvel. He's actively avoiding DC because he's still butthurt over New 52, it's not like they don't want him.

Astro City might be a Vertigo book now but that's only a recent change.

Also wow, are Wonder Woman's tits supposed to be gigantic?

>>79735237
Astro City is something he's been doing with Busiek since its inception, he's still doing it because it's one of his own projects. He hates the current DC universe, though I'm sure if DC asked him if he'd do another Justice type story set in the old unvierse he'd probably consider it.

> Because the eye is already being heavily drawn to a hundred different places.
That is a extremely good thing.
I want to bask in a comic's depth and detail everytime I open one, Cooke Is so bare minimum and simple their is nothing to pull me into the page once much less on repeat viewings.
This ideal that you can't have a focal point if the entire page Is realistically detailed is fucking bullshit.

Everything modern I have seen from Neal Adams is violently erratic and unfinished looking in the extreme while Reis inked By Prado is consistently finished looking to the point of absolute prefection.

What is in bad taste or shameful about enjoying stories about Gods and apocalyptic world changing events instead of soap opera day to day life events of generic ordinary people like the Acclaimed Hawkeye stuff (I'm not saying that it wasn't good, I'm saying having preferences towards ether story type is not wrong)

In terms of facial expression yes they do have such.

I'd prefer the right if everything didn't look so goddamn metallic all the time. I'd prefer the left more if the poses and perspective were more consistent.

I'd toss a coin in this case.

It's not that it's bland, it's just... they're running everywhere. Batman goes towards us, Aquaman goes right, Dinah and Ollie run to quickie in broom closet...
>>
>>79728928
hmm good point.

I was thinking right looks better but i always hate the consistency of the art in the actual panels. Where as left always makes the characters feel alive but the aesthetic isn't as nice.

But you totally pinpointed why left better as a narrative medium.
>>
Did anyone else's taste substantially change?

I know in my teens i would have preferred right and i still do like it. But right now i like left better.
>>
I used to love Alex Maleev as a teen.
Now rereading the books he's on he feels kind of bland to me. That's the most significant change in opinion on art I can think of.

The other looks like a sort of Justice League Go, so I'm not convinced ..
