but his is an extreme case of it... 😖

Yeah, its love or hate. I used to hate his work back when he first started on Superman but compare it to his Superman/Batman stuff and he's evolved a lot while keeping the same style. Plus, it works well for certain characters. You can't tell me McGuiness wouldn't kick ass on a Hulk book. 😄

Ed McGuiness has a fun caricature style, like former X-Men artists Rick Leonardi & Arthur Adams. I like it. And he wants to do Thor, now. 👆

That is true... and from what i hear he's always wanted to draw the hulk...

There are so many, but narrowing it down...

Michael Turner

Though I didn't like him at first: Ed McGuinnes

My all-time favorite: doesn't have anywhere near the technical expertise as do today's artists, but the natural power of his work is yet to be matched: Jack Kirby.

Ooops, I left out Alan Davis...I think he does women best.

But anyone ever notice how many artists don't do feet well, especially toes?

I also like Geoff Darrow.

Steve Mcniven is god, anyone who doesnt think so is blind.....and their mothers a ****

i'd say he's an acquired taste...

Matt Wagner kicks ass! Really illustrates the spirit of Year One perfectly!

Ivan Reis does a great GL.

Indeed ✅

His covers bring tears to my eyes 🙂

Mcguinness's art depends on the character 😬

His work on guys like Thor, Hulk, Supes and whatnot is amazing ✅

I can't stand his Supes... 🙁

His art for Majestic was really good...
