Frank Miller. Sin City onwards.

 

DKSA looked rushed to say the least

 

Not a fair statement as we would have absolutely no idea how much time the artist spent drawing the pages.

 

True, but regardless of the time spent it can still look rushed and that's exactly how I thought of it the first time I saw it. It's like his style (at the time) but like he just didn't put any effort or time into it. I get the impression he took the money thrown at him and just threw something out.

 

All mind reading on your part and no more valid an opinion than that other dude.

 

So only your opinion is valid? First off, it's an opinion, not a fact. I think it looks inconsistent with his usual work, even when compared to work done close to the same time.

 

There is no mind reading involved on my part. I used critical thinking, deductive reasoning and logic. I know this can make it look like a person has psychic abilities, especially to the intellectually inferior, but there is a difference. His usual depth of field is missing, the backgrounds are missing, and the perspective is off. If he didn't rush through it, he did an intentionally bad job. He may have spent a year per page but it's not his usual quality so by comparison it looks rushed. It's like comparing DKR art to a convention sketch, you know it's the same person but it's not the same quality.

 

Not only was it bad...it was bad...on purpose? Way to use "critical thinking, deductive reasoning and logic" instead of what I mistakingly called mind reading. This intellectually inferior person is grateful that you're willing to show him the difference.

 

 

:insane:

 

Well, you're certain it wasn't rushed, so what is your explanation for how bad it was? The man has a proven track record so we know he can do better work. So if it wasn't hurried and it wasn't done poorly on purpose, what other suggestions do you have?

Style experimentation.

 

Miller has a track record of this very thing, as evidenced in his dramatic style shanges from DD to DKR to Ronin.

 

Style experimentation? Here all this time I thought it was the booze.

I'm surprised no one's singled out Infantino yet. :shrug:

 

I like Infantino's work. :sumo:

Dude, he's my #1! But there are a lot of haters out there...

 

those haters are just plain :screwy:...i was born in the 86 but his art is what drew me in to comics and flash as well as many batman works

 

Really, Infantino and Romita (Sr.) should probably be exempt from this.

I think a lot of artists should be exempt from this, but people have their taste and taste is subjective....even if it appears to be crazy :)

I could, but I don't.

There's plenty of avenues for bad decision making without adding booze to the equation.

Why read a forum if you aren't interested in others opinions?

 

Oh, I like to read what most other people think. This one, though, has shown that his opinion is worthless. He's also shown that he has no interest in the opinions of others, so why bother with his?

He was 68 years old when he did that. Seriously.

 

To be fair, that cover looks a lot more Leialoha than Infantino.

To be fair you may be right, but it's a favorite so that's why I picked it.

Me too. I think it's amazing that he could do something like that at the age of 68!

Even with the incredibly under rated Leialoha inking him.

Maybe in 20 years people will give Neal Adams credit for his current work...which he's doing at 71 :)
