Post art that is legitimately god-awful that you wonder who greenlit itBatman Confidential, so repulsive I wish it stayed confidential
>>152466169Other than alfred looking like a hyena man due to liverspots and shadows its alrightMix of realistic and grotesque,wouldnt work anywhere elseI find artstyles like that one squirrel girl run worseIts good at what it aims to be which is tumblr snark/millenialcore but that makes its just the nastiest shit in the dogpark
One of the most unappealing art styles DC allowed on a book. Art looks shittier than something in a political toon.
how does JRJR keep getting work
None of the art ITT is egregious. Weird thread.
>>152466169You are like baby. Let me show you real bad art.
>>152466426loooooooolAnd plebbitors will argue to their blue in the face that the JRJR run has GREAT artwork.
Almost an entire Cassandra Cain run ruined by ugly looking women.
>>152466169A Classic. They really did just hire some random wetback off from the street.
>>152466367A lot of art now looks like it has no place at all in a comic.
>>152466439JRJR has done 5 different asm runs
>>152466492Man, what happened? His girls used to be cute. SMLMJ Liz is basically the entire reason I like Liz Allan, she was my waifu when I was a teenager.
>>152466430That Arcade design is cute though.
>>152466426He never misses a deadline.
Can you guess which characters are actually being portrayed here in these panels?It might not be the most horrendous art, but it's one of the most insulting portrayals of Barbara ever put to page.
>>152466569Why does Dinah look like a homeless transexual?
>>152466553In that case, it would be the JMS run.
>>152466429It's all egregious. You're just used to eating shit because you read comics.
>>152466590kekI guess I forgot to mention that it's also an insulting portrayal of Dinah.
>In typical fashion it's mostly just mediocre art posted by guys with chips on their shoulders>Especially the She-Hulk fag posting that shit for the umpteeth timeGet on my level. X-men of Apocalypse has great pencils but some of the most god awful coloring I've ever seen. Every and I mean EVERY page has the brightness and saturation set to fucking max combined with backgrounds constantly being bright white space like it's a goddamn webtoon. Shit is eye rapingly bright
>>152466636> it's a goddamn webtoonBecause Marvel makes the X-Men cater to tumblr fags and troons.
>>152466636Just turn down the brightness of your phone you whiny bitch.
>Oi, chum!>'ow 'bout a riddle, eh?
This is straight-up the "art" the Nazis warned us about.
> Here's your premiere Star Wars art, bro
>>152466636>acting like a douche>complaining about brightness for a page where the entire environment is whiteImagine being so confident and being so wrong.
>>152466636Retard.
>>152466698>Skip read it.Holy fuck Jen is such a cunt in this!
Al Ewing's GotG just had troon shit tumblr art. Didn't help that every character, especially Starlord, was portrayed faggy as hell.
>>152466853Al Ewing is a fag. This may explain it.
Mainline Thor book, btw.
>>152466935It's like Cary Nord if he had a stroke.
>>152466698>>152466514They are even worst pages. I won't post them because people here are snowflakes.
Tilda Swinton Supergirl. I don't think Supergirl has had a good series artist since the New 52.
>>152467108kind of sounds like you’re the snowflake
>>152467177Hi Slott.
This is all IDW can afford for artists on their bestselling title.
>>152467182Slott isn’t an artist
More tumblr/troon shit art for Supergirl.
Absolute Wonder Woman looks like tumblr the comic
>>152466688Mirin that jaw
>>152467192Okay this is clearly just filler artwork that got left in and colored, the penciller must have either run out of time or they just used what they had without his permission.The vast majority of pages posted here are just average, IMO, and the really bad ones seem to mostly just be a bad ink/color job.
More webtoons Turtle art. Though, the pig girl and bat girl are kinda...uuuuuuhhhhh.Besides that, it's crazy how the Turtles were cool as fuck in the 90s, and now there are tumblr troons drawing and writing their comics.
>>152467693This page looks fine.
>>152467652>It's uuuh, just the coloring, bro! Y-y-yeah! The colorists make the panels lifeless, the characters stiff, and the girls ugly!
>>152467723These are buzzwords, you're not actually leveraging any real constructive criticism, just that it doesn't make your dick hard.
>>152467731I don't know, what is the infinity gauntlet?
/a/ stuff, but I wish people would get beheaded for using CGI for shit that can easily be drawn.
Picking on modern Carol Danvers comics is almost cheating. Pick almost any run where she features prominently, and the art will just be webtoon-tier shit.
>>152467750The screentone filter makes it look even worse, it'd look better if they didn't try and hide it.
>>152467750Holy fuck, that bike looks like a bad photoshop job by some guy taking the piss. It essentially is, but damn.
>>152467752What I'm seeing is that when people say webtoon what they mean is that there is a woman that isn't drawn like a japanese schoolgirl, that is the complaint. What the fuck even is webtoon?
>>152467772I don't know, what is the One Ring?
>>152467777Do you have low funtioning autism?
>>152467783I don't know, what is the Philosopher's Stone?
This is supposed to be from one of the two biggest comic book companies ever, btw.
>>152467750This is what happens when a 56 year old boomer artist learns how to use a computer. Shame because his older non digital works were good.
>>152467806CGI props should be as shunned as AI, desu. Back in the hey-day, everything was actually handdrawn.
>>152467802This looks good.
>>152467652>>152467723>>152467772>>152467783>autistic tranny is coping and being aggressive to defend his xisters' shitty artworks and poor work to... uh, own the chuds I guess>gets meme'd on>starts sperging out even hardedLove to see it.
More boring webtoon shit.
>>152466430>>152466565I find this comic to be an example of the schism between the comics and cartoons side of /co/The latter IIRC LIKED Bee and Puppycat when it first came out
>>152467835Keep in mind, they're charging you $6 each issue for this crap. At least webtoons are free (free to ignore too). If it's a character we actually like, you either have to put up with shit artwork or drop the book and wait maybe months or even years for someone talented to take over. That's basically me for Supergirl right now.
>>152467835>Shit talking Gurihiru Are you 40?
>You now remember Marvel's attempt at bringing back the New Warriors
>>152466327> that one squirrel girl runRivals has been such a godsend for this character, gotdamn. It's crazy they went with pic related when they had well drawn portrayals of her before.
>>152468016The only good thing about that run is that it made her thicker. Before that SG was a skinny girl. Marvel Rising was when she was at her thickest.
More shitty webtoon art of Cass, Barbera, and this time, Steph.
>>152467860Honestly, they kinda suck. They're admittedly good at drawing cute girls, but not much else. These rejects from Japan (also including Peach here) are that much worse than their manga-making counterparts.
I would take anything in this thread over the bland as fuck digitally colored flat """"realistic""" house style that 99 percent of books since the 2010s are. Most of this shit isn't even bad, you all just have awful fucking taste.
>>152468371I'll take good art over anything posted ITT. Get some standards, for fuck's sake.
>>152466169Wait, Is that? *googles* Yep, Whilce Portacio. Those jutting, shadowed jawlines are unmistakable. Jim Lee but INTENSE.>>152466429A lot of these would be ok in indy comics but have no place in regular mainstream runs except as a gag.>>152466430This isn't actually bad though...if the comic was intended for 7 year olds.
>>152466426JRJR really is hit and miss with digital inking
>>152466367This art doesnt look so bad, but it shouldn't be in a serious comic, should be for a comedy like that one Bizzaro and Jimmy Olsen comic
>>152467615Mad about her nose and the lack of cleavage, huh?
>>152467802Was this the writer or artist that turned out to be an obnoxious sex pest?
>>152467750That's nothing. Zeta Gundam Define is an abortion and a travesty compared to The Origin.
>>152466935How does this guy still get work? He had an entire run on Dr. Strange that was paired with Alex Ross cover art, and every time you opened one of the books it was like getting flashbanged with dogshit after a nice meal.
>>152466418this is just early 2000s art, this doesn't count.
>>152466169Going from Wagner to... this shit was such a massive downgrade that it took me a few years to consider finishing Grendel.
>>152466492I see nothing wrong with this
>>152466688I despise traced poser art with a passion
>>152467750It's a shame, I like Jiro and Beautiful Place but goddamn does that 3D asset shit take me out of it every time.
>>152469212>This isn't actually bad though...if the comic was intended for 7 year olds.It's extremely unpolished though, looks like she just colored a 2 minute sketch. The potential for good cartoony art is there though
Does someone remember the name of that guy who traced porn?
She looks like she dumps hot brown ones in her pants without even realizing it.
>>152470570Greg Land? How could you forget that
>>152470731this is just what /db/ threads think he looks like
>>152470731Absolute Batman before it was cool
>>152470688The porn tracer was also Land himself? I thought they were two different people all this time
>>152466418>the tilting table>sitting the table under leg? >weird army of pots and pans>drawers hidden behind a window pane?
>>152466569Fan comic or licensed?
>>152467752This looks pretty on par for comics
>>152467802This looks good and it's more dynamic than most comic art
>>152469822OOF
>>152470570I'm pretty sure Adam Hughes is the one you're thinking about. I can't comment on Greg Land, I'm not sure.
>>152467137Nice art, but yeah, she was a frump.
>>152471282It's fully licensed DC comics art. It's Batgirl from Burnside. It was the main Batgirl run after the New 52 which, comically, had some of the best art in the New 52, plus Ed Benes here and there, if I recall.
>>152470502I think the story was that the writer was super late with the script and the artist had to hash it all out in a week. She normally works in animation and basically did a colored storyboard.
>>152469675I'm not familiar with any of the creative team specifically on that book, so I'm not sure.
It's crazy how "Indie" art used to mean the likes of guys like Marc Silvestri, Todd Mcfarlane, Jim Lee, etc.Now you got this rotoscoped/traced shit that they try to pass for art.
>>152469212>This isn't actually bad though...if the comic was intended for 7 year olds.Yeah the art isn't bad if you're a dumb kid with no standards living during a time when information wasn't readily available for the masses.
>>152467750It's even worse in anime. Japan just doesn't understand 3D outside of the games industry.
>>152470731How was this approved
>>152470158Al Ewing either just likes or can't get top-tier artists. However, Carlos Gomez is working on his All New Venom run right now, and his stuff is literally some of the most gorgeous artwork from the big two right now. I think his colorist really helps out though. Pic related
>>152471726Because Frank Miller's run exists.
>>152471571in all fairness, Image was a complete outlier for indies at the time that completely disturbed the traditional model. It was not typical for some of the top DC/Marvel artists to work indie like that in the prime of their career.
>>152471625Have you seen kid's books or graphic novels? That's sort of the style they go for. There's long been an idea that kids gravitate to simpler/cruder art
>>152471837Those actually look finished in comparison. I was half expecting you to post Captain Underpants or something so I commend you for not doing that. The Hellcat comic doesn't look finished in the slightest, like it was an artist challenge to finish a page in a minute.
A lot of these aren't bad. At least not godawful like OP was asking for. Most of these seem like an excuse to exaggerate minor complaints and personal preferences. You may as well crop a random panel out of anything and deride the whole thing as shit. Like this. I can't believe this is what Absolute Batman looks like. I sure hope someone was fired for this blunder.
>>152471726I'll never get over the diabetes legs.
>This was Image's best-selling series at one pointIt's crazy how some no-name mangaka could put out something infinitely more appealing in a weekly series than Saga could in a monthly series.
>>152471792Sure, but Indies like Top Cow weren't shipping out lazy pencils like you see in indie nowadays.
>>152473734Most indies will always have shit art because they barely make money. Stuff like Top Cow was an outlier because it was an era where they were making a ton of money thanks to the comic boom and they could float it for a few years even after. that's long over now.
>>152473434Her covers were nice.
>>152472191OP started with something that wasn't godawful to begin with. It's their fault for not lowering the bar enough. And here's my "who greenlit THIS art" panel.
Tradd Moore
>>152475385His art is cool.
>>152475226Don’t discriminate against Lego people. It’s rude.
>>152476529kek.
>>152476525Looks like shit.
>>152476731
>>152467802At least it's not t-rexverine.
>>152476525I love this
>>152467706no
>>152474168It's not excusable when no-name sweatshop worker mangaka push out better pencils in even the most indie Japanese publisher than most of any western indie work. It could be the talent/interest just isn't there anymore, which it very well could be. Most young artists now are growing up practicing to draw manga and not really western comics. Even Dan Mora and Jorge Jimenez are obviously heavily inspired by anime.
>>152466787You are like little baby, watch this:
Alex Maleev's art on Bendis Daredevil is considered great to this day by comics enthusiasts everywhere.
>>152470405Grendel is easily one of my favorite comics and the styles changing throughout the various stories is one of my favorite parts about it but damn if this part didn't viscerally disgust me the whole time.>>152478593I can't believe Chewie killed Mike Stoklasa.
>>152478627>the styles changing throughout the various stories is one of my favorite partsI've never liked this when it's different artists. In fact, I fucking hate it. If it's all done by one artist changing his or her style, that's neat.
