This has to be the biggest offender. I think it's incredibly overrated, but I'd love to get some of the prints as posters

anything with Alex Ross

You could just say Loeb comics in general. Including The Long Halloween.

Is that really a bad thing? Good art is pretty fucking important.

JHWIII could illustrate a Joker's Daughter comic and I'd still read it.

seriously, the other side of this is having to convince people to read something Liefeld illustrated with "no really guys, the story's totally worth all the Grimace McBloodpouch visuals!" That guy's art turned me off of a lot of older stuff. Fuck, based on current Deadpool I'd have hardly believed Liefeld created him.

Comics aren't just art, and they aren't just writing. It takes both to make a good comic book.

I can't remember the story at all, but the art is fucking etched in my memory.
I should reread it sometime.

Elegy was really good but that's it.

It's an inherently visual medium. Art is much more important.
>>
>>81641201
movies are also a visual medium, but you can still have a shitty movie that looks good. Hell, 8 Crazy Nights has absolutely gorgeous animation but is god awful.

More of a joke than bait.

I think Hush is popular because it starts off Jason Todd's return
Which is the jumping in point for Red Hood stuff and other Batman 00s continuity

This and Batman & Son
