Howard Chaykin Sucks Ballzz!

If you've read "Guy Gardner: Collateral Damage" you'll know what I'm talking about

馃槵

eh 馃槵

His art is a little to sketchy for me. I don't think his art sucks though

Liefield sucks

Chaykin is just past his prime and now is only so so

I've enjoyed his Classified arc. (Haven't read the conclusion yet).

His art is pretty solid on Blade 馃槵

His work on the Cap CW crossover in NA was horrible though 馃槝

But, he's like John Bryne, his best days are over

I think he is below average. I don't mind his art work but the way he draws Blades character is just f*cking horrible. I've saw some of this other stuff and was not impressed either.

His artwork is crap ... but he wrote that story as well and the writing sucked worse than the artwork.

How many people know, he was the first comic artist for STAR WARS, during the Marvel days?
He has drawn the same impressionistic way since the mid-80's. You can take or leave his style, but it's his.

Everyone in GG: CD looked deformed.

Damn, I've been meaning to checking this out, but keep forgetting about it, though this isn't the first time I've heard negative reviews about it.

Art aside, is the story of Collateral Damage any good?

I thought his work on the Wolverine/Nick Fury team-up in the one shot The Scorpio Connection was gorgeous... but I'm not a fan of his newest stuff. I think the blame lies on the colourist though.

Nah, it was rubbish .... the whole thing is just one running commentary on the fact that the writer thinks Guy is a d!ck.

The actual storyline is boring and irrelevent.

People should find his B&W, X-rated series from the 1980's - BLACK KISS. It'll make you get busy in the bathroom. 馃槈

Collateral Damage was awful. I felt like my soul died after reading it.

It really was drivel that made my mind numb.

After the first few pages, i just flipped without realizing it, and was looking at the back page before i knew it.

Probably would've looked alot better back then compared to now
