I challenge anyone to name a comic with a greater inverse proportion of great writing to shit-tier art than Sandman.

Pic related is maybe the 5th worst artist who worked on that run.

>>90109485
God yes. What the hell. I was so happy when I got to the Wake and the art was by someone competent.

What is most mainstream American comics?

>>90109485
A lot of proto-Vertigo comics has fucking awful art, Doom Patrol and Animal Man especially

>>90109485
Sonichu.

I feel like, if DC hired Duncan Fredrego to redraw all of Sandman, they could pay for it with Kickstarter and that alone would raise 10 million dollars.

That's the arc when the guy eats the crow, right?

>>90109629
There's works with vastly worse art than Sandman, but nothing comparable in the Fantastic writing/Shit art category.

You have to get Chandler to draw Batman: Year one to equal it.

>>90108701
the opposite is worse imo

>>90109700
Ayep.

>>90109385
This. The art was so awful I was almost glad it was over (plus Sue was a bitch). Although the all new ultimates art was possibly even worse, but that story wasn't even good..

>>90109761
Nah. A truly great story can draw you in, and you'll eventually tune out most of the unfortunate art.

An awful story is easy to walk away from, stellar art will just encourage you to buy a poster and be done with it.

>>90109308
Holy shit yes.

>>90109761
>prioritizing writing over art
>in a visual medium

Ideally comics are a good balance in all departments, but if you'd prefer to have better writing over better art than you're a fucking pleb

A comic book with a garbage story is just an art-flip book.
I'll pay for a great story. I will not buy a cheaply printed floppy full of drivel, even if it's drawn pretty.

Let me guess. you pull at least 6 Bat-titles monthly right?

>>90109768
Fialkov will always be the only writer who fucking understood Ult. Reed after Ellis.

A comic book with garbage art might as well be a novel, if the art isn't guiding the storytelling and bringing it to life.

And thanks for asking but I haven't read a Batman comic for more than two issues in years

>>90109308
I've never finished The Invisibles because the transition from the glorious Weston/Jimmenez volume to god damn Phillip Bond completely destroyed my connection to the world. The aesthetic went from 2000AD style comic-realism to looking like a late 90's MTV cartoon.

>>90109485
Fuck man, I honestly didn't mind Dean Ormston when he did a couple issues of Lucifer, but his work on The Kindly Ones was fucking god awful. Apparently that arc had like 8 different artists, so who knows what the fuck happened to it

>>90109605
>Doom Patrol
Richard Case is a great artist

>>90110268
He gets better as he finds his groove in the book, but the early stuff is ropey as fuck. Proportions are crazy inconsistent at times, perspectives are illogical, some flat design choices to name a few problems

unbeatable squirrel girl. I'm sorry. I just really like Ryan North's writing.

>>90110457
So many authors improve with age. Early Peter Gross Lucifer is very bland compared to modern Unwritten Peter Gross

>>90109854
a bad writer can suck all the life out of a good artist

locke and key. I really dont like the art style

>>90108701
I was into literature long before I developed an interest in comics (and still prefer it), so I can easily tolerate a comic book with great writing and poor art. That said, I can quite understand if someone would not be willing to do so, especially if comics are their medium of choice.

I'm an artist so I can't really read a comic with terrible art no matter how good the story is. Make it a book if you can't get a decent artist. Jeez. Comicbooks are a visual medium

God, there's something about the art that irks me, even though I think Pia Guerra isn't a bad artist.

Shit taste, friend.

I don't care it's bait, I WILL DESTROY YOU

>>90108701
I like OOTS and really the basic stickfigure style is part of the fun,
but it'd still be cool to be legit drawn.

>>90112563
Books and Comic Books are vastly different forms of storytelling, you can do things with a comic you can't with a book and vice versa, regardless of shit art style.

Also some folk aren't great at descriptive or narrative writing but are great at plot writing and dialogue, making comics perfect for them.

>>90109605
Yo dude steve pugh and richard case are GOAT, the dude who did the art for morrison's animal man is not very good tho

Vote Loki.

>>90109605
Animal Man was Vertigo?

>>90111761
Case in point: immonen, he even went from bendis to slott, who's next? , hell he went from good bendis to current terrible bendis

>>90112598
>God, there's something about the art that irks me, even though I think Pia Guerra isn't a bad artist.

I enjoy the fact that it's a post-apocalyptic story which is colorful.

>>90112894
Morrison Animal man was before Vertigo was a thing, and then the Millgan/Delano run right after it got into a lot of Body Horror stuff. It got hit with a "For Mature Readers" tag, and moved to Vertigo when that imprint became a thing

>>90108701
I want a remastered edition of Sonichu with good art

Vote Loki is garbage. I got the first issue because I like Loki, but holy fuck. It looks like a three year old did the art.

>>90114029

I've tried more than once to read Sandman. I'll leave it at that.

>>90113047
exactly

compare immomen on a bendis comic to like, immomen on nextwave

>>90112032
The art in that series is embarrassing.

While it doesn't render it completely unreadable, the art in the first few issues of Joe Kelly's Deadpool run are so fucking annoyingly cartoonish and bulky it makes it hard to take the comic more seriously and enjoy it.

Arkham Asylum: Serious House on Serious Earth

>>90118682
I don't see anything wrong with that art.

>>90119332
Read the actual comic. It's just too fucking goofy.

Anything with Fernando Pasarin and Matt Ryan

>>90108701
The same people who think this probably hate old video games because of the graphics. AKA casuals.

>>90112608
>even the redraw isnt really great, just not shit.

>>90114872

This doesn't make any sense, are you honestly trying to say his Nextwave work is better than his Ult.Spiderman,Avengers and X-Men work?

Because of Bendis?

>>90108701
Transformers Lost Light. The new artist is horrible.

>>90108701
Gillen's Star Wars: Darth Vader

>>90121522
Not that guy, but to be completely fair, he was given an almost ludicrous amount of freedom while working on Nextwave.

>>90121543
>>90121587
The OP mentioned great writing.

>>90121587
Is that Dedato or Cassaday scanning and copypasting people?

>>90114444
I know you gotta spread your talent around and can't give your big guns the best stuff all the time but if there is one book that should always have top tier art and writing its Justice League.

>>90121635
Pretty sure it was Larocca on Vader. Deodato was Star Wars.

Anything Frank Dillon.

>but muh Preacher
No, he's always been bad.

>>90110495
Me too, bro. Me too.

>>90109682
Fegredo is the only good artist (other than Mignola) to draw Mignolaverse, in my opinion. All of them range from ok to bad.
I think I like Fegredo more than current Mignola, even.

>>90121662
Thanks, all the images i've seen kind of blend together. Are any of the Marvel Star Wars series good?

>>90121837
It's true.

>>90114339
You know it bby.

>>90114006
Somebody was making it. I think they got like twenty pages in before giving up.

Starbrand & Nightmask

>>90109723
Chris has said that he recently got into Marvel and DC....Do you think we could manage to get him to do this? That sounds like the greatest shit ever.

>>90122079
The original run from way back when Star Wars was new was fun. I don't care much for what's coming out now.

>>90108701
batgirl & the bop rebirth

>>90125129
Yeah that sucks. The authors are new to comics, but they seem to at least be familiar with how the old BoP worked, but man that art makes everyone look like pre-op trans people
