How much do I hate thee, Alex Ross...?
You know, I don't care how talented Alex Ross might be theoretically. I don't care that every comic nerd and dork and geek has been brainwashed into thinking that Alex Ross and his artwork is the second coming.
Anyone who makes Superman and Batman look like someone's ugly ass, over the hill pops, and makes Wonder Woman and Powergirl look like MEN IN DRAG, should be banned from drawing comics.
I'm sorry. Can we all agree that franchise players should have a character book, and that some things should be inviolate?
Look at this:
Does this make you want to run out and buy a Superman comic? Do you cream when you think of waking up next to this guy? Does this rendition look like anyone's Superman? He looks like Bruce Willis. An old, fat, ugly Bruce Willis. What should next be thrown on the altar of "realism"? Should Superman be balding? Should he have a beer belly? Man, I'm for even more wrinkles. Wrinkles, yay!
Who the hell does your marketing, DC? You know, I'm available if you need some brainstorming. Can't be any worse than this ish.
