[QUOTE="Sodalis, post: 179103, member: 1791"] hmmm- if there were cliff's notes fro a comic book, would it be any shorter? i mean a comic book is a medium that in and of itself is as little wording as possible and the pictures speak for itself. now if you condense the statements even more, you have a flip book... and I would be surprised if someone got a complex story like GG out of a flip book- But then again, most comic books rae just flip books- you walk into a store, flip through them- and walk out... :D edit: as for Todd McFarlane, i respect him as an artist. He did after all got me started in collectin Spidey comics. His manipulation and contortion of the classic spidey made it seem so much more interesting than just the flat swinging spidey of Stan lee. But when taken as a whole, he is no where near as talented as some of the other artist sout there- Jim Lee is an awesome artist that received little acclaim for his work. The cartoon completely hakked his WildCATS to shreds while the toys were about as good as the cartoon. McFarlane is just better at marketign and where he sells his name to- that is why his cartoons (spawn) is so much better and also his toys. eh- to each their own though. If you are saying he is your fav spidey artist, I agree. But if you say he is your fav artist, then I would have to respect tjhat but tell you that there are plenty of better ones out there...
