Platt Appreciation 0

[thecollector881]

Don't know if there is one already going but if not here it is. Just saw this book on posted on IG and what an awesome cover imo.

He's one of the reasons I first read Moon Knight, and probably the only reason I read the original volume of Prophet. I'll always have a soft spot for him.

I like Joker, but Batman looks really odd.

Like a muscular version of Heidi Klum.

Giant overly muscled heroes is sort of one of his things.

[UltraMaximus]

Wolverine Cable

[Doktor]

Batman's head looks like it's in the wrong place there.

 

I generally love "SPLATT"s work, but this one doesn't do it for me.

 

Some of my favorites (outside of his Moon Knight run) are:

 

 

(I really liked this series and was bummed that it died before getting finished)

That Batman cover is just odd. Batman's head is in an odd place.

 

The Wolverine cover is just awesome !!!

[Waylander]

I have the Wolverine 310 - stunning art.

 

Another fav is Vampi 12 variant

I believe his head is to his left to indicate he'd been tugging back on the rope in his right hand, but the rope being slack makes this non-intuitive.

 

But yeah, not one of my favorite SPlatt's either.

That Soul Saga cover always cracked me up because of the lower half of the female's body...not sure what's going on there

[Doktor]

Lots of tripping hazards & a strong breeze will eliminate the small amount of coverage that's there.

It all looks like Krap to me . . . but what do I know about art

Second favorite Splatt cover I own, next to my original copy of MK #55.

[UltraMaximus]

More broken back then Liefeld right there.

[SquareChaos]

Many of the comments in this thread are why I have a soft spot for Splatt. It isn't exactly in the realm of what I'd call a 'guilty pleasure' along the lines of enjoying Liefeld , it's more of a time and place sort of appreciation.

 

Thought, as shown in this thread, he has done some stuff that doesn't quite overwhelmingly scream "90s!!!!".

SPLATT is hit or miss judging from some of these posts. I liked his Moon Knight and Prophet covers back in the day though. His female crotchial regions are weird looking, he's not quite sure what to do there. I guess these guys all have their weaknesses, like Liefield with faces and bodies and limbs and guns and swords and backgrounds.

Yea, but if you put that aside it's only chests and feet that he has trouble with.
