NOW ACCEPTING GA CONTEST VOTES

136 posts in this topic

I'd rather wait until you post the results and post my commentary on Action 1. headbang.gif
I never saw what the big deal was. Not much Action if you ask me.

That's why I am surprised Action 1 got nominated.

 

27_laughing.gif Go ask tth2 why! ... and be prepared for a looooong answer.

 

Overall I do agree. I only nominated one DC SH GA cover and that was Adventure 40, a key with attitude if you ask me.

 

That was his number one vote? Boooooriiiiiing. sleeping.gif

Have I called you a know nothing newbie today yet?

 

Twice!

 

Wait til you read my commentary on my #1 pick. It's a beautiful piece! grin.gif

 

guaranteed it's not as short a commentary as mine...cloud9.gif

 

who the hell reads those things, anyway?

 

 

oh, and Mask 2

Even if Schomburg didn't try to cram 1,000 things into each cover (similar to a bored kid doodling in class who keeps adding more airplanes, and more explosions, and more soldiers bleeding while the teacher drones on and on), I find his drawing style to be aesthetically ugly.

 

and now I'll disagree with you mad.gif

 

Even the simpler compositions and prettier style of his airbrushed work? flowerred.gif

Okay, some of that stuff wasn`t bad, but I`ll never be a fan.

I especially love the way you changed the guy in the foreground.

On the non-superheroes anyway.

Not a LB Cole fan either. sumo.gif

I didn't realize that I was until I looked at the covers in the galleries.

He wan't a great artist -- he was just really good at designing comic book covers!

tth2 - not a fan of L.B. Cole or Alex Schomburg!!??!!

 

Heretic, blasphemer, what false idols do you worship!?

Cole`s "wood engraving" style is interesting, and I might find it interesting in other contexts, but I just don`t think it`s suitable for comic books.

 

news.gif I don`t like Basil Wolverton either. There you go, my triumvirate of overrated GA artists: Schomburg, Cole and Wolverton

I`m eagerly looking forward to the Top 10 of each of the contests.

 

I`m predicting that the non-superhero contest will be a Frazetta and Flessel fest.

Here's a similar version titled Mundane Comics.

I see that he washed out the rest of the cover with yellow tongue.gif but he did a great job on the name Mundane. thumbsup2.gif
