That's what happens when his costume and corset get burned off in a fight. Thanos - get out of that damn flying chair and starting walking places.

Batman and Impulse:

Extant, Parallax, and a few others (from the same issue):

Bar none some of the worst art I've seen in a canon comic. 😘

An example of 1990's; art, kinda why I sat out that decade.

^ Even for the 90's, that artwork is horrid.

Fisk's depiction in Daredevil - Love and War (1986):

Possibly the worst depiction of any character that I've ever seen. 👆

Holy shit. That makes artists like Chris Bachalo seem tolerable.

That just made me laugh out loud. I know its somebody's artistic expression, but its incorrect.

That's the work of Bill Sienkiewicz, you idiots - one of the greatest and most imaginative artists to ever work in the comics field. Yes, his painted style is Gustav Klimt-like and impressionistic, but it's making a story point by making Fisk a boulder of a man who seems impervious to anything outsiders try to throw at him...except when it comes to his wife.

People here think all comics should be drawn like Phil Jimemez, Jim Lee etc. (and they are great), we're going to have a short discussion.

I don't care who drew Fisk that way, "you idiot". It is an absolutely terrible rendition of the character--among the worst I have personally seen. Looks like a toddler with Down Syndrome drew it, tbh.

...Looks like absolute shit, is what I'm saying. 👆

Still looks like shit 😬 . Its comic books, he can keep his arthouse experimental BS lol

I don't find it to be all that bad really... just stylized

^I agree with Mike.

I know what your getting at, but it makes him look more like one of those guys who ate so much they have to take a wall down to get him out of his bedroom - it makes him look like a pathetic figure.

The impressionistic style is fine for some things, and experimental art can sometimes work. But IMO this comic was absolutely the wrong place for it. Not all styles work in all settings.

We can understand its purpose and still think it looks bad/good/great/average. Art is funny like that. It's almost like it's...*gasp* subjective! 😱

No, we don't. The only thing limiting discussion is the distance between us and your seat on that high, high horse. Come off it dude.

This whole rendition (sample page):

Stylized? Sure. Impressive? Meps. Everyone looks lumpy and distorted.

Tumors where the biceps should be.

That looks like someone going for something like Mike Magnolia style and not pulling it off.
