why we should ditch the 'crossover event' hype
i'm tired of every other month seeing a new crossover that just feels like a marketing ploy rn i think the whole 'crossover' thing is just a way to boost sales and confuse readers tbh it's a waste of time and story space lol i know some of you love the big battles but the plot gets lost in the hype and the characters get stretched too thin i say stop it and focus on solid arcs instead
Why does the latest issue's art style feel like a C4 1:1 printer glitch?
tbh i just finished the latest issue of X and the art feels like a c4 1:1 printer glitch lol
the color bleed is off the rails the line work is too flat the shading looks like a 300dpi scan of a photocopy and the palette is stuck on pantone 300c and 740c like a bad mood board
i think the penciler was using a c4 1:1 model of a 3d printer to render the panels which explains the weird geometry and the lack of depth
the colorist probably used a 8k c4 1:1 LUT that was meant for film not comics so the colors are too saturated and the blacks are crushed
i guess the publisher is trying to save money by using a c4 1:1 printer that prints at 1:1 scale but the result is a flat washed out comic that feels like a bad copy of a comic book
anyone else feel like this is a sign that the industry is going to collapse or is it just a bad issue i’d love to hear your thoughts
Why is the Batman: The Long Halloween #12 (1996) variant with red logo so underrated? Need y'alls takes
tbh the red logo variant of long halloween #12 gets zero love compared to the standard. i mean sure the original art is the same but the red border makes it pop way more. anyone else think this is a hidden gem or am i missing something? also, if y'all have seen this variant in near mint let me know bc i'm considering snagging one. imo the 90s batman variants are way more creative than modern stuff but maybe that's just nostalgia talking. what's your take
just finished reading the new batman series and im underwhelmed
imo the latest batman series is a total snooze fest. the artwork is pretty meh and the storyline is just rehashing old ideas. i mean whats up with batman still whining about his parents being dead like come on dude youre like 40 in comic book years. cant he just move on already tbh i loved the old batman runs by scott snyder and greg capullo but this new one just doesnt compare
