ok. i will accept your challenge,sir.

i'm not that hyper-critical and i cant draw worth a fuck either. and although dillons style is simplistic and pretty unremarkable for the most part, i kinda like the guy. i guess i am kinda biased, cause preacher brought me back to comics when i was not reading them for a while.

i do think his facial expressions are better than a whole lot of people. and he can convey comedy into his drawings pretty damn well. i think he'll do a good job on max, just because preacher was so damn filthy.

i urge you to pick up the first preacher tpb and see if its your thing. i mean, if you just cant look at his art without throwing up in your mouth a little, then pass. but it really is some good storytelling.

and his stuff on wolverine origins wasnt spectacular by any means. but the deadpool/wolvie fight was the SHIT.

i'll give you that his storytelling is good, in that it is clean and conveys the progression of action well but his layouts and panel composition are just so unimaginative...he would be better at drawing something that's primarily dialogue driven. as far as his facial expressions, everyone looks either pissed off or frightened imo.

his wolverine origins work was just painful to look at...check the issues with cyclops and emma frost and wolverine...his superheroes look like some unfortunate schlubs doing cosplay...and his background and environments are generally lacking. i just feel like he can probably draw 5 pages a day or something, it looks like very little effort is put into his pencils.

lol yeah i was getting to that.

@main_man...
your defense for him was 8 mile style... you listed all his flaws then gave a few good points. if it wasnt for the inker he'd be 1 step above a coloring book artist.

lmao@5 pages a day

lol the toss my salad picture did make me laugh though

lol @ 8 mile style
