And whilst he does indeed look goofy in each picture, he also looks like a completely different person in each picture. How many goofy looking people are there impersonating Parker in McFawful land?

most artists draw the same faces over and over-he wasnt even capable of that, like a child with crayons.

Perhaps influenced Rob Liefeld's numerous shouty expressions in his artwork, although, of course, I prefer Buscema.

One problem I have with McFarlane and Liefeld's art is that the eyes very often look misplaced or the faces too flattened, almost as if they didn't learn how to draw human heads competently.  I did like McFarlane's art initially, but eventually this stylistic tendency started to annoy me.

yeah, I see that I guess. (teasing now...here it comes) And Kirby's fingers are square. But Todd brought the energy just like Jack.

 

(It was tough for Jack to draw all that awesome stuff with square fingers but somehow he managed quite well.)

The difference is Kirby was being stylized-McFarlame was actually trying his best to draw good-

No one can deny that Jazzy John created the image of the Peter Parker we all know and love, yes Ditko had drawn him as the awkward teenager but it was Romita who matured the character. He will always be the number 1 Spider-man artist even though Ditko rules supreme.
