ITT: Books you couldn't get into because the art was garbage

>>85090867
that art is good though

>>85090867
Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider. Not that the art is garbage, it's just not for me. I can't look at it without feeling funny.

Arkham Asylum has great artwork!
You'd hate a few of the volumes of Sandman if you dislike this!

My only gripe with Asylum is that some of the text is hard to read but other than that I think the artwork is fantastic

This. Just because it's not Jim Lee's house style doesn't mean it's bad.

Rebirth Titans

Booth's art is just so gross

>>85091394

We need more of Superman telling Batman to stfu.

>>85094518
Calling it garbage is going too far, but I can understand how confusing McKean's storytelling would be for someone new to comics or someone who is only used to the modern cinematic look

>>85094786
I generally agree on Booth but I feel like he's at his best right now and it's not unreadable yet for me. Would still prefer someone else though.

>>85090867
The art is the only part I liked about this book.

What's more important : bad art or bad writing ?

>>85092530
He's a good artist just a bad story teller

>>85095210
I'd say bad art. I'll never give a comic a chance if I think it looks like trash

>>85095210
A good artist can save a bad book.

Not so with a good writer, unless they're very well established and have a strong base.

>>85090867
Almost anything involving post 80s Liefeld and Land.

this is now the unpopular opinions thread

>>85090867

Yeah I feel you there OP. That art is just too shitting to look at, fuck that, it's assault on your senses. It's like listening to music that just screams random loud noises.

>>85091074

I'm reading Sandman right now, on Volume 8 and there is nothing near as shitty as that.

>>85091394
Its shit but not because of the art

Rereading Long Halloween I realized how much I didn't want to reread Dark Victory.

Plus the story was much worse than I remembered.

I don't date ugly girls, why would I date an ugly comic?

Man, I hate it when artists give the Joker a smile that's, like. Bigger than his face.

Tim Sale, whoever started that Bronze Age style of drawing the Joker with a two foot chin, the Arkham Asylum comic guy...

Good art can't save bad writing

Tim Hunter is the coolest magic DC character

>>85097402
> Good writing can save bad art
100% disagree

>>85095210
Depends on the degree. Average bad art vs average bad writing then the bad writing is worse for me because it feels like the artist is being wasted. I've never really seen art so bad that the story is impossible to follow though.

>>85097451
Depends on how bad the art is, I guess

The example that springs most immediately to mind is Gillen/Land UXM

>>85090867
I dunno, OP


I always thought this book's art was its strongest and weakest point.

Like it really set the tone perfectly, but it made it impossible to understand what was going on without Morrison's script at the back of later printings

>>85095210
Good art, I believe. Long Halloween is my favorite example.

>>85091222
I slogged through it and it wasn't worth it at all.

>>85095210
Bad writing. I can forgive bad art to degree if the writing is strong enough to carry it. But I won't bother reading something when the writing sucks. I might flip through the pages to look at the pretty pictures but that's about it.

>>85095246
Usually I'd agree, but this particular page flows pretty damn well.
