Can't believe I forgot Ethan Van Sciver. The guy is basically the definitive GL artist right now.

I used to love his work, but i soon realised (at least imo), that he's a one trick pony... everything is too similar to my eyes...

When he's on his game, his work looks great.

Then there are those times when it seems like he just crapped on the page and called it a day.

Sadly he's more crap than not lately.

oh, i know he has talent, he can do some awesome stuff... its just that it seems when he has to do too many characters on a page he seems to go to hell...

Isn't that true for most artists? I think a real offender in that regard is Carlo Barberi (?). Just look at the faces (especially the girls) he draws for Young Justice in OWAW.

I mean, this is their style, and unless they work from models there are gonna be similarities in the people they draw. Not that it is inevitable; it takes a greater awareness, I would imagine, of one's work to strive to create subtle differences to prevent cookie-cutter characters.

True enough but some are worse than others. Jim Lee is a pretty big offender in this area too.
