I can verify that this is 💯 true. Also-we can’t teach outside because of bad air quality due to fires/heat

As comics get more “widescreen” I’ve really come to appreciate the sweet, skinny, vertical panels of Miller’s DD

Yo man-I know this is coming from a good place-but it wreaks of privilege. Some parents/adults can only afford the inexpensive Walmart gift set and it means the world to the kid to have that encouragement. They’re learning-it doesn’t need to be precious now

But it serves no purpose. You aren’t creating anything or adding to the story. It’s like adding cool whip to a well planned pizza. You could, but why? Silly. Make something original

Toth famously said " Strip it down to the essentials and Draw the hell out of what's left".
Calling something "simple" because of a lack of (over)rendering implies that less lines = less work.
Here's Toth keeping it Simple

Joe Rosen did a masterclass on lettering/composition/pacing on BORN AGAIN. This book doesn't hit as a hard without his perfect placement and choices. Wonder how much of this was planned by Mazz during layouts? This is a perfect panel

Let’s spend Monday gushing over Barry Windsor-Smith, shall we? This is the closest we will get to seeing how Michelangelo would’ve drawn comics. Classic draftsmanship and beautiful storytelling

So if I were to offer commissions (on real paper!) like the ones below-
Is 150$ for 9x12
And 250$ for 11x17 ridiculous?
Too much? Not enough?

The panel with Lucy messing up Ricky’s hair!!! So good

This comes to mind
@philhester
talking about rhythm in his layouts
Comics people:
What are some comics/graphic novels that you would consider structurally or formally MUSICAL? Think of the way a comic uses rhythm, or has very deliberate pacing towards a climax, or recurring motifs and ideas. Not necessarily comics about music/musicians.

But this particular thing is meant to be seen/experienced horizontally. You shouldn’t change an artists vision just cuz. Not to mention that nothing in this is “created” again-no reason other than you can. I’ve yet to see why AI should be used

This whole thread reads like a bunch of folks who see themselves as these villains-which speaks to their lack of self reflection? These guys are the power fantasies they wish they were-the charming manifestations of their worst thoughts-but instead of learning they are empowered

Love that he drew the structure of the leg and then didn’t need it because contour defined the form so well…so good
Think more, draw less
The final cover of David Mazzucchelli's Batman: Year One. This will be available in July. Yes, it is a wraparound cover. Designed by the great Chip Kidd. I know so many of you are excited about this one, but not as stoked as me—I've been hoping for this for more than a decade.

One of the best examples of TOTH’s " Strip it down to the essentials and Draw the hell out of what's left". Is Michael Lark’s work on TERMINAL CITY.
