Darwyn Cooke's art suffers from sameface in terms of general outline and structure of his faces, but one thing I noticed while re-reading New Frontier is that NO ONE in any of his group scenes will have the same expression. He sketches an impressive amount of emotion and implied reaction in his characters in every panel and it makes it really fascinating to take your time reading through it and looking at everyone.

Grant Morrison had some crazy surrealist ideas for Doom Patrol, but it was mainly Richard Case who actually decided to try to make art for this stuff.

>>83398530
I was going to original post this since it was the first thing that came to my mind.

>>83398773
Ross' style isn't something that will work in every type of comic book story that's for sure. But for Kingdom Come, his "everything looks 'iconic' and epic" art works perfectly considering the context of the story. Otherwise I would agree that Alex Ross' art looks better when everyone's just posing rather than in action.

Ross reminds me of the Image founders. His comic work seems more dedicated to making impressive splash pages and spreads than decent storytelling. I know he's a big fan of George Perez, but Perez isn't just about cluttering pages with as many characters and detail as he can
>>
>>83403034
1.) Ross has more talent in his pinky then Liefeld, Lee, Booth & Mcfarlane have collectively.
2.) There is nothing lacking in Ross's storytelling
3.) Perez did a fuck ton of his own cluttering and detail, have you seen Avengers/JLA?
4.) Nothing wrong with fuck tons of detail. Some of us buy comics for it.

>>83403200
I think Rob Liefled is a better comic artist than Ross, technical skills aside

>>83403262
Is there a comic where Liefeld demonstrates some kind of genius paneling or brilliant storytelling? The handful of issues I've read with him on art featured neither.

>>83403262

You are possibly the single most delusional person in history.
Any singe Ross image in this thread is better then the collective panels, spreads & covers that Liefeld has ever touched a utensil too.

I like Ross covers, generally. I'd agree his style isn't good for everything, for covers, for example, he often has the Trinity as very old people and it would never have cut it for other than say an anniversary variant for any new 52 trinity related book.

I just re-read this as well, and it does have a lot of inventiveness and gutter/imagination involvement that I can't remember in any other recent trade I've read in the last six months, just off the top of my head. Yes, some of the guys and girls can have similar facial structure. Lois was somewhat hard to tell from Carol or Iris, excepting different hairstyles, and likewise, his guys had a sameness for the g-men, etc. The fight scenes before Barry gets there, it would have been hard to tell some of the guys apart or who they were in relation to the rest of the book even if they had already appeared (e.g. Hal or Ace).
