Worst modern covers ever 3 3

[ebtorres]

^ I did NOT make this up.

That's real? Jesus...

 

Da fcuk did i just see?

Guessing you dislike JRJR? haha

 

I would take Ramos over JRJR anyday.

 

JRJR had great potential. His Daredevil inked by Al Williamson is a little masterpiece. He just got lazy, and schematized his style to a "default".

Ramos may be "nice" in some poses, but he does not have a clue on how the human body is made, or works.

 

My vote goes to this one, but I am sure there are worse examples…

 

 

how can someone put this on a cover?!?! there are so many talented fellas/ gals and they let this be printed?!

 

it's an insult to this form of art!

Fun thread... and yes, every one in here is horri-awful.

 

Funny how it's mostly Marvel and DC.

 

Surely, Image has also had some poopy covers.

[Crimebuster]

I like that they gave her a classic butt shot pose even though you can't even see her butt due to that cloak. I guess it's just the only pose for a woman the artist knew how to draw?

 

Also, is someone holding that lightsaber? It sort of looks like it's just resting on an end table.

[Aweandlorder]

 

No. How do you hold an axe? Like this? Is this it?

 

Who the heck is the dude w the saber and why is he pregnant??

I see a saber in the foreground but no picture of a dude with a saber.

Those pesty deadlines! Not even enough time to finish the cover...yeah I guess less is more with that one.

[Batman]

Picking up on this from another thread, I'd like to nominate this as the worst cover in the history of modern comic books...

 

 

It doesn't feature the new Ms Marvel, therefore vastly reducing it's investment potential...

 

[Aweandlorder]

ok now what the heck is going on here

 

[Aweandlorder]

looks like the bromance is strong with this one

Just pick any Amanda Conner cover.

[Aweandlorder]

 

This cover gets my official STOMP of approval

 

[Batman]

I like this cover... it's a funny cover, as it was intended to be. Conner's work isn't everyone's cup of tea, however it can't be argued that it's badly drawn like some of the others posted here.

+1

 

It's laid out well, and tells a story consistent with the characters.

 

Not liking a style doesn't equal bad cover.

It absolutely can. She has more artistic talent than me, but I don't think she should be working for a big 2 and doing covers.

Ok... so where's the argument?

You said it can't be argued that it's badly drawn. I would say her style is badly drawn.

[Aweandlorder]

Why is there an argument about creative preference?

I think the cover is lame.. Do I need to explain why? I just think its lame..

But if you need an artistic explanation then fine..

Harley's face is just very poorly drawn.. it almost seems as if it was pasted on the cover. And from an artistic point of view, it is the focal attention of the entire cover; it's placed in the center and is (obviously) brighter than the entire cover.. which in case draws the center of attention of the viewer.

Sure, its my opinion, but if anyone else thinks that her face is badly drawn, then from a compositional stand point it would seem logical that he/she will dislike it as well
