Poll Frank Quitely's Art Work: Love it or Hate It? (44 votes)

LOVE IT! 39%
HATE IT! 23%
Meh. Don't feel strongly one way or the other 39%

I love Frank's art in everything from All Star Superman to New X-Men. I love the fact that one of my favorite writers (Grant Morrison) chooses to team up with him so often. However, he seems to be a very polarizing artist with some comic book readers forgoing entire series' simply because he's working on them. How do you feel?

His art is not the worst, but it's not the best either.

At first I hated his work but after reading more of his work I've come to partly liking him. He's a good storyteller, though he still occasionally irks me.

It really depends on the title, I think.

Like any artist, his work has it's ups and downs. I usually do like his art, though.

Like it, not love it.

On All-Star Superman, it's superb.

On New X-Men, it was...ok. Kinda weird at times.

I know some people are for it and I'm happy they like Quitely.. But I don't. In fact I hate him, not as much as I hate Humberto Ramos but close. I really liked the "New X-Men" series so that proved to me that bad artwork doesnt prevent me from liking comic series but wow, it was aggravating. It makes me wonder what Marvel sees in these guys to keep them around, I mean you can't possibly tell me you like Humberto Ramos' Wolverine. I could have drawn that lol but I guess everyone is different, I was introduced to my favorite artist (Steve Dillon) back in 2007 when I read Wolverine Origins vol.1.. That is good artwork to me.

His X-men is god awful...though backgrounds and extras (as in non-xmen people) ranged from okay to good.

There are some AMAZING panels in All star Superman, and there are a few mediocre panels that remind me of Dr. Katz, or generic paint by number colors with overt details in sparse areas. in general Id say I like it a lot. There is one thing that bugs me, his inconsistency with drawing Superman.. Seriously go back through and just look at superman's face , it keeps changing between a few different models. You have Flat faced superman, where it seems his face was polished down to remove distinguishing features. You have Square jaw superman which reminds me a lot of Frank Millers Batman. You have Bulbous chin Superman which seems like a dimpleless Jay Leno, and finally look at the cover of issue six... TURKEY_NECK SUPERMAN!!!.

its like He couldn't decide whether Superman should look more like Powdered Toast man, The Tick, Jay Leno or Gorbachaff. Not a deal breaker. I still like it, BUT MAN DOES THAT BUG ME.

I dislike it. It's not bad and it's not good. It just does nothing for me.

Love it. All Star Superman, Batman and Robin, he's been behind my most beloved comics of all time. How could I not be a fan of his art?

It works for some stories but really doesn't for others, so whether I hate it or love it would depend on which story it is for.

It definitely isn't for everyone. I personally like it but I can understand if someone doesn't.

It's an acquired taste. Personally, I really like how expressive yet subtle his art is during small character moments at times.
