troll/10 for making me reply

its just different. western comic art and eastern comic art are different art styles that developed independently of one another. western art tries to be a bit more realistic, while eastern art focuses more on the fantastic. you really cannot compare the two. so, the best your question can mean is "why is manga art less realistic than comic art?" in which the answer would be, because manga art tells its story using more fantastic imaginary to paint a picture of an imaginary world.

none of those bullets are heading towards Cap's face. the next burst might but he'll probably just adjust his shield.

Is there anything in manga that even has this level of detail?
>>
>>728558085
Because just about every artistic decision made by a fucking Asian has sucked, throughout history, and it always will.

They're just artistically fucking broken, and I find it fucking hilarious that so many American idiots love it. It's a damn embarrassment.

>art in a different league
you mean you personally respond to the aesthetic? There's more to art than that.

Because it's certainly not the content that makes it past the censors. How can you call something art when it's so clearly edited to be commercial?

Manga artists have more integrity than anyone in Western comics, and no one is more aware of this fact than Western comic artists.

I've read enough to realize it wasn't going to make it to my top 10 American comics. Try some Allen Moore, Neil Gaiman, Grant Morrison, and Warren Ellis and then tell me Punisher is interesting.

And as long as we're taking requests, I've got some good manga suggestions too.

Don't comment on art if you don't understand it. The ability to describe in detail doesn't equate talent. Maybe skill. But if form is all you care about, go with digital photography.
American/Western art is stylized, too. Heavy into realistic detail and hyper-sexualized. One stylized form isn't better than the other. They're just different. It's like saying a tennis player is a better athlete than a pitcher. Eh, maybe, but it's different.
