Worst comic book artist or artwork

@havenless: :) good job

J Michael Straczynski. He makes Liefeld look like Jim Lee:

Is this supposed to be New York? It's just ridiculous.

And finally, possibly the worst pencil job in the history of modern comics. You literally can't even tell what it is, it's just a bunch of color blobs:

I can't tell if you're joking or not

This is the Grant Morrison variant cover for the final Batman Inc issue. Morrison is probably my favorite comic book writer, and I purchased a copy of this variant the day it came out, but DC should have kept this to a bonus page at the back of the book or something.

@hecktate: Ive seen way worse variant covers, case in point

@spidey 15

For the record, here's the one I was thinking of:

I honestly laugh everytime I see that...That is partly why I made this!

@stormbox: haha, who drew that? Why is Aquaman's face pressed up against an invisible glass door? And what's up with Superman's goofy smile as he prepares to kick Aquaman in the back of the head?

@hecktate: I have no idea who drew it but its one of the biggest pieces of s**t ive ever seen

The worst part is that i think this was supposed to be a serious cover not some parody cover

What's his face that is(or was, I'm not following it) drawing Thunderbolts. Honestly just the worst stuff.

Although Liefeld is still worse.

ok im older, I still don't get it, with so many clearly bad artists you are ragging on someone because you don't understand their art style, which I might add is not unique. heck if what I think you are suggesting is happening, the most popular representations of this art style outside of Comics can be seen in the background splashes of Ren & Stimpy, and the Works of artist Ralph Steadman. both of which are generally praised for the use of blobbing. so again what is there to get, can you explain it better feel free to use industry terms as I am not illused to them. If I still don't get it, how old am I supposed to be to get it? cause if its around 60 im afraid that the opposite would be more suited.

Straczynski is one of the single greatest comic book artists of alltime in my opinion. My sarcasm was obvious when I mistook Asgard for a badly drawn New York.

This guy got it. You and the 15 yr old didn't:

and Dondave didn't get it, so three people didn't get it, one did.... the joke was a flop. but really im just defending someone against your ageist attack.

Stop it, you're hurting my feelings.

@martianmanhunterisbetterthancy: sarcasm cough cough

@darkknightdetective: Yeah I got it after my rage subsided.

@havenless: It's Olivier Coipel on art. JMS wrote it.

I got it immediately. The sarcasm force is strong in this one!

Steve Dillon (But only when he's not on Punisher)

I thought his art was okay with Gen-13

but that guy is an amazing artist. He's possibly my favorite.

He makes thor look like a barbarian, but the outfit always 'pops'. Just looks incredible.

His latest is the newest X-Men #1-3

okay J. Michael Stacynski is an artist and that is meant to be Asgard and the artist is Oliver Copiel.

Frazier irving sucks!!!!!!

Rob Liefeld is still the king of terrible art:

and:

and:

Remember kids:

@crom_cruach: To further drive your point home. It's not just the character designs but Liefeld himself that is terrible

Here's Prophet as depicted by Liefeld:

Now here's a good artist, making the exact same character look great:

Rob is so bad that other artist do a much better job of drawing the character he created.

Frank Quitely

I dont read FF because of the terrible art. I get mad jsut thinking about how bad it is. There are so many people out there that can do so much better. FF looks like a 6 year old draws it

And other writers actually manage to write good stories with his abysmal creations!

Oh my god, these drawings are awful Lol. They are the worst comic artwork.

Yeah, Prophet is really good too. Shows what happens when a writer does something interesting with what seems like a boring premise.

That sonichu stuff gives liefield a run for his money.

John Romita Jr

His art does the ladies no justice

@power_nexus said:

Current Thunderbolts artist. Steve Dillon's art was bad as well. The only good artist on Thunderbolts was Phil Noto. Shame he was only doing it for 3 issues. The good , the bad and the ugly. Stick with number 1 Marvel.

@spidey_15 said:

Eric Canete is the worst there is IMO! He make Spidey look like a Looney Toon

That is probably the single most disgusting artwork I have seen. Who would hire that guy!?

Fridolfs & Nguyen IMO.

@geraldthesloth: wow that is horrendous

Mine would have to be Neil Edwards and Jamie Mckelvie. Both draw horribly stiff figures, boring facial expressions, and forced foreshortening that would make Jack Kirby look like Curt Swan.

Frank Miller on Dark Knight Strikes Again.

@terrybogard2014: This is a terrible shame, since Romita Jr.s father draws some of the most beautiful women in comics. I guess the apple fell far from the tree and grew sour on its journey.

Any comic book which has Rob Liefeld as artist.

Whoever did the art for AllStar Superman, I mean Jesus Christ!

I like Dave McKean. But Rob Liefeld, eww how is that guy still working.

I'm not saying I'm an artist with great ability but I can deffinately draw better than some of these I mean god damn half these pictures disturb my eyes. Although I can't colour for shit but none of the colouring is too bad in my opinion.

Tradd Moore.

The art in this thread is just BAD!

@wolverine08: Hence the title.

@rulerofthisuniverse: IT BURNS!
