I came close to pissing myself a few times in Frank face threads. Anyone have the Frank that shoots Franks one?

Look, he's no Alex Ross, I'll give you that, but there is no other man capable of truly depicting Frank Castle. Absolutely fucking no one. The man could Frank a Frank like no other motherfranker could.

I'm a massive Punisher fanboy. There are numerous high quality renditions of the Punisher, ranging from Marco Checchetto's more grim and realistic designs to Gil Kane's more supervillainous design for him back in the 80s with the fucking jumpsuit to John Romita's Gorilla-Frank, but as I said, they're just renditions of the Punisher. They are not the Punisher as is, they are not the ultimate end-all depiction. Steve Dillon's scowling, lording motherfucker will always be the one true Frank to anyone who's actually given a shit about the character.

>I’ve known Steve for decades but this is a more recent one. Of late, there had been a meme regarding what was described as “Frank Face”, based on Steve Dillon’s inclination to draw this psychopathic murderer with the exact same expression from panel to panel, and to find it on other characters as well.

>I remember chatting with Steve at the MCM London Comic Con bar last year (lemonades all round) to find that a) not only was he very familiar with the meme but that b) was putting in examples of the expression on purpose into everything he did, just to feed it further.


Dillon was /ourguy/

But if you want him doing top-notch art, check out his work back in the day for 2000 AD. Amazing shit.

Absolutely. I've been slowly going through Dredd from Prog 2 and forwards and Dillon is instantly recognizable and much better than the parody of himself he became in the recent years.

>>95202326
holy shit

Fuck you dude, his early, non Marvel (I mean Marvel US)/DC stuff is great. It was only when the big two started chucking cash at him that he became lazy as fuck, still, you cannot criticise his storytelling, breakdowns (or "panelling" as you like to call it, for some reason) and overall composition at all. He knew his anatomy pretty well too. Sameface I can forgive.

But yes, let's continue this awesome maymay

>>95202312
Alex Ross is no storyteller, he's just an illustrator. Great technique but for "flow" and that Greenbergian idea of "medium specificity" he's not very good at all. That overtly-detectable photo-reffing really takes me out of the comic-reading experience.
Btw I have never read a Dillon Punisher comic, ever.

You're doing a disservice to yourself. He's one of the main artists for Ennis' Punisher stuff. The two flow together very well. Hell, one of the scenes in I think it was Marvel Knights was so iconic it was used in the Daredevil show.

>>95209180
Recommendations? I don't mind Ennis too much but I hardly read any capeshit these days...it'd be appreciated if they're available as cheap softcover volumes, too. Please and thank you

>>95202162
>shitty art

You're an idiot. Dillon's art, like many others', simply looks like complete shit with modern coloring. That and he was justifiably lazy when drawing capes. His earlier stuff is great.

There's numerous entries for Ennis Punisher, but a lot of them tend to just be labeled "The Punisher."

>The Punisher (2000-2001) (Also known as The Punisher: Welcome Back Frank and Marvel Knights Punisher)
>The Punisher (2001-2004)
>The Punisher/Punisher MAX (2004-2008) (Also known as Frank Castle: The Punisher from issues 66-75)
>Punisher MAX (2009-2012)

Pretty much all your Dillon and Ennis Frankage is going to be in these issues.

His lineart is absolutely spectacular, it's coloring that fucks him.

>>95202162

His art was sometimes extremely good (for me, it was best in Hellblazer), sometimes not so much. He had an extraordinary workload sometimes and AFAIK was never late, so it's clear that he "standardized" his style quite a bit over the years.

Still, franking is quite amazing and I hear Steve Dillon liked the meme as well.

>>95209625
Is this real?! It should be!!!

>>95209736
Bad coloring, and the same face is real.

I think the most atrocious one, that HAD to be Steve just being a troll, was when he drew Peter and Aunt May. Holy fuck, its so bad. You'll laugh your ass off, he pretty much made his own Frank Face meme comic and got paid for it.

And I think the worst coloring was every time he draws the Hulk. The one ongoing where Hulk is bald, and the famous Ultimate Avengers 3 where we get one of our most beloved 4chan banners from.

Outside of these things, yes his artwork was exemplary.

>>95209910
You do know he didn't do the coloring himself, right?

>>95202162
>I'm so glad I'll never be subjected to his shitty art again

you are one of those guys that watches justin bieber videos just to shit on the fans in the comments, right?

Why

>>95209934
Oh of course. I'm just saying those moments ruined his work and made it look much worse. Sorry I wasn't clear on that.

Its crazy that his one face is soooo damn bad... You could see it back in the day's of Preacher, take of Cassidy's glasses and him, Jessie and Tulip look like triplets on every panel. Just damn it is bad... but his anatomy is fantastic, and his gore is spot on disgusting.
