Bronty Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Nice. Colouring has improved so much the last 20 years. You can’t even tell that’s the same art right away. So much shading (like the shadows on his eyes or arms is just done digitally now at the colouring stage).

I had blindly 'undervalued' the ongoing technological advances in this medium's creative process for too long...from the penciler to the colorist, their 'modern' skills & techniques have since (re-)gained my appreciation. While the DPS by JR JR & Janson was created 13 years ago, Janson's mastery of the line work was & is still strikingly beautiful. The details of the Apache & support helicopter squadron are mesmerising to review... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Yeah but at the same time it comes at the cost of the originals sometimes not looking as good because a greater percentage of the art is done digitally. Yours has good contrast with the dark choppers overhead so it doesn't suffer but many pieces have more outline and less rendering than before, because the penciller and inker are literally leaving blank space for the colorist to work (the shading on the main figure for example). On the other hand, the more modern art is clean - no messy hand cut and glued pieces and such - and a lot of artists are doing very nice work. Your page looks great.

Popular Post camd Posted February 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2020 One of my favorite DPS from the collection The first appearance of Uncanny X-force at the conclusion of the Xmen Second coming arc. One of my favorite rosters that got me back into comics in 2010 after a long hiatus. I thought the Remender run with this team from 2010 to 2013 was one of the best x runs.

Clearly the doubling up on leg days have done wonders for Spectre... Sweet Jeezus I loved this story and this was probably one of the first comics I read.

Popular Post dichotomy Posted February 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2020 (edited) Great thread! Oddly, a DPS is not something I ever look for, but it turns out I've ended up with a few. All on the modern side. I've also included 2 wraparound covers. Two from the Adam Hughes story in FF 650 - both are loads of fun to look at and rendered as only AH! can. 2 boards each. Three from Silver Surfer Black #3, single boards. Tradd the Madman Moore Absolute Carnage / Immortal Hulk on 2 boards by Filipe Andrade Shazam! #9 on 2 boards by Marco Santucci - Shazam facing down Black Adam and the 7 Sins The wraparound covers are coincidentally both by Hitch, one is recreation/modification of The Authority #1 cover (with Neary), and one is an unused JLA cover.

Those were ALL tremendous pieces but these in particular stole my heart. The humor of the AH! strip poker scene in this DPS has stayed with me. Tradd Moore's Surfer is going to be one of those perfect storm moments in comics that's looked back on as something really magical. Sorry I didn't get any of it.

And that Santucci.....Como Sei Bella..... Thanks! The strip poker DPS is a particular favorite - I knew I wanted it when I read the story. Thor’s expression slays me every single time. Plus he works big so lots of goodness. And don’t miss his cameo as bartender in the other piece. Edited February 9, 2020 by dichotomy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the same chap that Mr. GlendGold doesn't recall his name (that was my morning chuckle...thanks Glen) Now, THATS a DPS. & Glen's one is decent as well. Kirby wasn't the first to do one, but he perfected the form. davidtere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
