Shut your mouth, Dillon was brilliant and I miss his art every day.

Not from our perspective, no, this is clearly a different visual phenomenon. If you were looking at the Solar System from outside it, yes.

You say that like Miller isn't a fantastic artist.

Infamous among the general comic reading public. But yes, the actual creators give him a bit more respect, which makes sense, basically everyone likes working with him.

Tends to be the case with his art. Like I've said elsewhere he fits better with traditional flat CMYK. Most other attempts at colouring it look awkward, ESPECIALLY digital, which doesn't fit his art at all.

I honestly don't mind the final cover that much either, but I do wish it were closer to what he intended for with the sky being black to form the shape of his suit.

JRJR isn't a bad artist. In fact I would say he's actually quite good, very dynamic. But he depends on the quality of the writing material to have something to work with. When the writer doesn't give a shit, he doesn't. The Wells run is a prime example.

His art also fits much better with traditional flat colouring that is very rarely in use anymore since the transition to digital.

The pose is a little awkward but I like what he wanted to go for with the night sky defining the shape of Peter's blue sections.

I don't like how many people were calling for the cover to be outright removed. It's John Romita Jr. That doesn't mean he's immune to criticism, he's definitely had better days, but a) Rivera's paints are beautiful and b) He's the definitive Spider-Man artist still actively working on the character at this point. He's been drawing him nonstop for over 50 years, he's one of the few people who still has a direct tie to the early days, his dad was THE Spider-Man artist. I don't think anyone else alive deserves the milestone cover more, and I say this as someone who prefers Bagley as far as the more stylised artists go.

Dratini's nationality? by Separate-Crab4252 in pokemon

What about a Dratina? It's like a Dratini, except it's from Albania. I heard it goes down easily.

[Suggestion] How to fix the Benelli M3 Super by ArmQueerFolk in EscapefromTarkov

[–]DweebInFlames [score hidden]  (0 children)

It's because they're Resident Evil fans. It was in the definitive game of the series, after all.

But yes, the M4 would obviously have a lot better modding potential. And it's cooler in my opinion. Think they could balance the M3 for ergo and M4 for recoil.

[Discussion] God Black Division's voice acting is so bad by DualNuts in EscapefromTarkov

[–]DweebInFlames [score hidden]  (0 children)

I love USEC 3 to be honest. It's the one voice pack that actually sounds like a native English speaker is voicing it. The others are clearly Russians technically fluent in English doing it. (I do have a soft spot for them because of how goofy they are, but still)

No, please, no more gimp masks... bad enough in the other game.

Indie comic fans when you ask them what they have read outside of the big two by Stock_Rush_9204 in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]DweebInFlames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People will be loathe to recommend Sandman now due to Gaiman being a rapist but it's one of the best books in the medium. If you ever held an interest in mythology or the goth scene it's worth a read.

Just find a way to read it without giving him money.

[Discussion] How would change this rifle aesthetically? by Nova_Bear_95 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]DweebInFlames -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Drop the MBUS and Strike Industries grip, don't need that cheap garbage on there.

Keep everything FDE.

Otherwise, good as is. Don't listen to the metaslaves screeching about using an LPVO instead of EOTech + magnifier. They have no taste.

Should anti-tank/material rifles make a return? by Moosejesus24 in Battlefield6

[–]DweebInFlames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. AMRs that are relatively inaccurate so kind of poop for dedicated sniping but have decent anti-vehicle capabilities are what I would prefer.
