Ack! Strata was never on the forefront, and is barely even a blip on the radar any more.

No, Todd McFarlane is a festering boil and an embarrassment on the ass of the industry, actually.

Well if you woke up you'd see that Byrne has done more for comics - as a postive - than the majority of the Quesada arse lickers that are working at Marvel these days.

And to be honest he's done more for the industry than you'll ever do.

Even if that's true, what's it got to do with his embarrassingly bad amaturish

But honestly, I am TRYING to create work as embarassing as his 3D crap-fest. Just let me finish breaking all my own fingers and you're going to see some sweet, sweet competition, Mr. Bryne.

And I thought I didn't like the guy. To be fair he has done some noteworthy stuff, been a part of Image is one of 'em.

<< > Even if that's true, what's it got to do with his embarrassingly bad amaturish

Not a lot - m post was more to the guy that said that Byrne had done nothing in the field of comics at all. >>

Ah, I missed the original then. Sorry about that.

You should definitely check out THE RED STAR. The series just relaunched from CGE. I haven't seen that issue, but their first collected edition is just stunning in combining computer graphics with traditional illustration. I think you can find their site at theredstar.com.

Thanks, I'll have a look.

A few months ago, Mike Allred, of MADMAN fame, published a very enjoyable one-shot called SPACEMAN. A rather Silver Age-y sci-fi adventure, it featured Allred's character work over another artist's computer-generated backgrounds. It had a very nice, slick look, rather like a classy animated film. Worth your while to seek out...
