A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.

Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.

There is only one rule:*

Comic Books is a no judgement zone.

You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.

If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.

* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(

I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

Ñ is how I've heard him pronounce it. Such an iconic artist...

great! thank you, I really appreciate it. I only know him from Hellboy, what else should I be looking into?

His "Batman: Gotham by Gaslight" was the first full story I remember illustrated by him. Still holds up, IMO.

Before that I remember buying comics that he'd done the cover art for and being disappointed that he'd not drawn the interior :) Alpha Flight, X-Men, and so on.

I currently follow his Instagram and got a copy of his Quarantine Sketchbook--so many nice images to pour over!

cool, thanks for the recommendations.

yeah, that quarantine sketchbook certainly sounds intriguing
