anybody else LOVE his artwork besides me???
who else loves Frank Quitely???
I'm a fan, though I don't like that he takes so long to get his work out (if he gets it out at all).
Regardless of his style, he's very good at "telling a story", and his work is always clear.
I've seen some of his stuff that I love, and some not so much... I picked up Jupiter Legacy today, and it looked great...
@bumpyboo: You should commission Frank Queitely to draw you up a sketch of Brody Dalle's bum.....
Hehe, great idea! ;) Although I am not sure he could do it justice... :P
His art is fantastic.

It's...mediocre.
I'm sure you could do better.
Like Gary Frank, there are things he does excellent and things he does awfully. He drew a great Lois Lane and a great Dick Grayson Batman, but his Superman was pretty grungy at times. Like, Frank Miller grungy.
Recently finished reading 'All-Star Superman' and I loved his artwork. It complimented the story perfectly and he brought something new and different to Superman. I have just started to read 'Batman & Robin: Batman Reborn' and his art is once again very complimentary to the tone of the story. He captures the fun of the dynamic duo and also the creepiness of the villain. My favourite artist at the moment however is Kenneth Rocafort. Simply outstanding.

I don't know. I just felt like his artwork was a little... cluttered in We3.
@jedixman: I still have to read it :P

You're basically the #1 Grant Morrison fan on this site, and you still haven't read We3? Tsk, tsk.
I think I'm starting to become #2 in the "Morrison Fan club" here, though :P
Personally, my problem is that We3 should have been longer - at least five issues. Morrison does his best work in the long run.
@jedixman: Morrison needs at least 5 issues to get into the groove, you're right (nods)
And my love for Morrison is occasionally outbalanced by lack of money and hate for (the guys in charge of)DC :P
We3 is about 3 animals who were turned into cyborg soldiers for the military.

Indeed. I love his sagas, like the Batman and New X-Men runs. I even like Final Crisis; I just think that it would have been better as a 10 issues series. Again, Morrison works his magic on the long run. The last two issues of that series is when I had problems - it was good before that.
@jedixman: Final Crisis really was 9 issues. Superman Beyond was totally essential to the story, and reading the whole thing in order (with FC: Submit) really makes it work so much more. I love Final Crisis.

I loved Final Crisis after I read Superman Beyond; it made absolutely no sense before. But I still think that the last two issues felt incredibly rushed. It should have been longer than it was, but I agree: Superman Beyond is indeed essential.
So am I.
