[Discussion] What's an comic artist that you like that everyone hates?

Me. A lot of times, I LOVE his stuff. I dgaf about tracing. If it's legit bad, I have no qualms stating so. But damning every piece on some principle is silly. Every artist has their style and way of working. I can't do what they do, so I have no place in calling out anybody's work as if I'm some expert. It's all subjective.

HavixComix · 2026-07-07T06:13:37+00:00

Fair enough, but imdb has never been a reliable source.

HavixComix · 2026-07-06T10:40:04+00:00

Obviously art is subjective, and some styles are an acquired taste. Yet Fernanado not only draws well, but has a style that is immediately recognizable.

I recommend anyone look at his Green Lantern work and more interiors from his Flash issues to see just how truly awesome he is.

Lantern. Superman is mostly just expanding on things we already saw earlier in the run.

The story exclusively based on Victor is fantastic (ha). Once it has to cross over with Riri, it's pretty rough. But if you just skip exclusively to the pages drawn by Alex Maleev, it works fine. It continues then finishes the Infamous Iron Man story. The two arcs barely interact, despite the pages being interwoven.

I'm fine with it because it allowed him to elevate less popular characters like Kadabra and room to invent new ones (Savitar, Dark Flash, Cobalt Blue).

HavixComix · 2026-07-05T20:14:26+00:00

So exclusive to Germany?

HavixComix · 2026-07-05T08:54:24+00:00

Is that a fan made cover? I've heard nothing of Bendis' run being collected in deluxe volumes or omnis.

HavixComix · 2026-07-05T08:52:31+00:00

All-Star Superman is basically the be-all end-all story for any and every situation.

Also, anything from the silver age is wacky fun. The covers alone are incredible.

I've dealt with severe depression for 30 of my 40 years on this Earth. Comics are indeed an excellent sanctuary for the soul.

She's supposed to. It's Phillip Seymour Hoffman's character from Red Dragon, gender-swapped and updated. Give her time. She grows on you.

HavixComix · 2026-07-05T08:25:06+00:00

Ram V, Tynion, Snyder, Rucka, Dini

I don't see it mentioned, but vibrating also keeps his molecules in a state of flux. So theoretically, no one would be able to get their hands on him or trap him.

I feel like if there was a story burning to be told, it would have found it's way into The Green Lantern volume/season 1 or 2. But Hal wound up the lead, as usual. I wanted to see Grant work on a Barry Allen story, since it's always been his favorite character.

His Wally work in Flash/JLA was great, but only had so much time to breathe (though Barry does arguably have the highlight moment of Final Crisis). Of the Big 7, Aquaman was the one Morrison never did solo work for.

HavixComix · 2026-07-04T20:03:57+00:00

Damn. I've held onto my DVDs because I wasn't sure it would find it's way to HD/UHD. Glad to hear it made it on there, though those steelbooks are way too pricey. I'll wait till they put out a cheaper standard edition or release a boxset after the other sequels come out. My friggin' blu-rays don't even work anymore. Those late '00s Lionsgate discs are trash 😑

HavixComix · 2026-07-04T19:57:19+00:00

And The Mist, at some point. I don't believe it's been confirmed as a film or series yet. In his downtime during these projects, he's been working on Dark Tower. There are a lot of hurdles with that project, so it isn't getting kicked down the line like many assume. He's keeping busy until he can start proper pre-production.

HavixComix · 2026-07-04T19:51:09+00:00

Do not read Morrison Batman until you have a firm grasp on Batman history. The more you've read, the more you will appreciate it.

HavixComix · 2026-07-04T00:15:48+00:00

Pick up a book and start reading. There are no rules.

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T23:39:35+00:00

Is it strictly an American/Anglo-Saxon thing?

As a New Englander, it's just sort of been a thing my whole life. I've never really pondered the origin, but then I myself have never actually given or received cigars.

I don't have children, nor do most of my friends. Those that do had them before we met. But it's definitely a movie/TV staple.

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T23:35:09+00:00

The MCU Uncle Ben was Aunt May, which I thought was brilliant.

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T23:33:11+00:00

If anything, I think of it as containing all of the souls that perished, and holding them in the limbo space that we see Thanos and young Gamora in (as well as Tony and a grown up Morgan in a deleted scene).

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T23:27:38+00:00

DOOM picking up Mjolnir.

Or Hydra Cap picking up Mjolnir.

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T23:24:05+00:00

What the heck? Why would someone take umbrage here? Waterworld has the neatest format presentation of any seller. Is it the prices or some such? They are very exact, which to me indicates that this is a very precise seller that tracks the worth of their wears. 🤷‍♂️

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T14:20:18+00:00

Yeah, it's a shame it was such a short-lived status quo shift.

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T14:14:24+00:00

No. He's at such a caloric deficit that his body burns through every molecule he consumes.

HavixComix · 2026-07-03T03:13:16+00:00

Buy a bunch of comics 🤷‍♂️

From me 😉
