Marvel has great consistent artists, but in the past year I feel that DC is kicking a lot of ass. I love Detective Comics, whatever happened to the caped crusader, Batman and Robin, Dance, Azrael, Cry for Justice, and Secret Six. My favorite has to be Batman and Robin because to me it does what comic book art should do, which is perfectly combine the art and story and use it to pull you into the book.
Marvel vs DC: Who has better artists?
" It's fifty/fifty but when it comes to th manga style marvel kills "DC doesn't do manga.....
" Don't artist work for both Marvel and DC? "Usually they're contracted to one company. Alex Ross is the only guy, that I can think of, who goes back and forth, but that's because he pretty much just does covers now.
"@War Killer said:I was just wondering, I thought more worked for both companys. But to answer the question, I don't know really, both Marvel and DC havegreat artist, but also have bad artist as well, so really I don't know...I guess it depends on what books from each company your reading" Don't artist work for both Marvel and DC?

Alex Ross is the only guy, that I can think of, who goes back and forth, but that's because he pretty much just does covers now. "They play Swingtown depending on which company offers the best paycheck, they may last a few years at Marvel, then do DC, then maybe even start their own comic company.
DC artists move to Marvel, then Marvel artists move to DC
Most of the artists have done this one time or another
I have to go with DC because they're comics are kickass! I still like marvel but not as much as before.
DC by far. Manapul, Ivan Reis, Jim Lee, Jae Lee, Rocafart, Gleason, Capullo, ect. They've even got Maleev now! Hardly even a contest in my opinion
Yeah i think DC wins Manapul and Lee are the bests in their works The Flas has one of the best arts in the new 52 the same for the Justice League
Marvel
Well, it's kind of hard to pick, but now that J H Williams and Bruce Timm won't be working for DC anymore, I'd say Marvel.
@squares: JH Williams is still working for DC. Technically Vertigo but I still count it. He's doing the new Sandman series. Plus I would hardly count Bruce Timm for anything. When was the last time he drew interiors for a comic? Last thing I saw him do was a variant cover for Superman Unchained a few months ago.

J H Williams, drawing Sandman? SO AWESOME!
Hey, the topic says artists, it doesn't specify comics. Bruce Timm still counts.
DC. Easily. Just read Marvel Now Iron Man. Most of the characters are always laughing. What's up with that?
Maybe they're all just really happy?
Just the current Batman Black and White alone series blows Marvel out of the water. DC has amazing artists: Adam Hughes, Brian Bolland, Neal Adams, Ivan Reis. Paul Pelletier, Alex Mallev, Jason Fabok, David Finch, Sean Murphy, Eddy Barrows, Rocafort, Jim Lee, Howard Porter, Rags Morales, Frank Quitely, Paquette, JG Jones, Dan Jurgens, and many others that are just amazing. No contest... DC owns!
Marvel
Mmmmmmmmm......... Naaaaaah, still DC.
Well DC has Jim Lee, Ivan Reis and Rocafort. Those guys are untouchable.

DC has a broader scope. they have very very good to very bad. Marvels all look more similar IMO and theyre not amazing but not terrible.
@wolverine08: come on man, everyone is saying DC.
Hahha, you stubborn prick! I just think Esad Ribic and Adi Granov are better than the entirety of DC artists right now.

Or would you like them to be shaken, not stirred!?
@wolverine08: but if everyone is say dc, theres a reason.

Maybe the reason is this site has a DC bias?
