Worst Artisit

Liefield is worst, hands-down, just for reputation as well as being unable to draw any decent proportion.

I don't like Steve Dillon's either, it completely put me off Wolverine Origins, and I'm getting tired of Frank Miller's Sin-City style art which is all he's capable of drawing these days. His old art was very good.

And I have to be in the right mood for Tim Sale's work (although in small doses it's fantastic).

Liefeld isn't the worst artist in the comic industry. That's pushing it. He's bad, but not that bad.

Well, I can't think of anybody who I dislike more.

I don't think I've ever seen Wonder Woman looking ugly.

Punisher: War Journal... the art (especially Civil War stuff) made me drop the series.

Which is saying something, considering all I did was read the issues posted in the Civil War Scans thread.

Alex Ross is a great artist, but he can't draw women for shit.

Ross' artwork reminds me of Norman Rockwell's.

True. Wonder Woman and Black Canary look much better there.

Yeah, now they look post op transsexuals ✅

Lulz. He's never going to be Adam Hughes or anything but it's still an improvement.

Overall, I think Ross is the more talented "artist," but Hughes is a better comic book artist.

And he draws women better.

It should be noted that Ross deliberately went for a less pretty, more manly WW in Kingdom Come. Read it in the annotations (they're floating around the web somewhere), where its described how he disagrees with the notion of a beautiful, supermodelesque WW, prefering the more muscular version as a thematically better fit.

Again, I'll have to look at 'em, but thats the reasoning he used to explain the design choice.

That said, I'll agree that there are plenty of inferior artists to Ross who are just plain better comic book artists.

I never noticed how dominatrix-y Wonder Woman looked in that photo perched atop Flash like that.

is it me or do most of Alex Ross's characters have basically the same face?

Alex Ross gets a bit too much flak for his women. I think Wonder Woman in Kingdom Come looked great (modeled after Rita Hayworth), and Gwen Stacy in Marvels looked wonderful. But, I'll grant you he goes for a look that appears too butch, or tough sometimes.

You can say that about anybody in the comic industry.

I find that to be a pretty common weak point in comic book art. Jim Lee is the worst at it.

Michael Turner is pretty bad too. 🙁

In fact, I'd even say he's worse.

Yea he's bad but on the other he did create deadpool i suppose the good and bad both weigh out the same....
