Has anyone else caught this one yet? (Legion of Monsters: Satana cover by Greg Land from this month's Marvel Previews) |

| "but the arms are diferent" they'll say, "but he's got a degree in art" they'll say, "I don't see your work published anywhere" they'll say. I say the end result might look good, but it's because of colorist Justin Ponsor, not because of Gre Lands artistic talent, Night wing 1-4 anyone? |

| Maybe he is just really good at photo reference? The problem i have is that he has no original ideas for his characters poses and expressions. He steals it all from photographers and actors who do all the thinking for him. LAME! |

Until you can put pencil to paper and draw something that doesn't look like it was made by a blind kid, your opinion is about as relevant as that of a femme feigning Metal knowledge.
...and I also learned recently that Greg Land was the person who designed the modern Nightwing outfit. (But don't take my word for it: http://forums.comicbookresources.com/archive/index.php/t-46826.html)He wasn't handed a George Perez design... he 'light boxed' it according to your facile logic. Aside from that, a number of notable members of the industry have come to his defense, particularly collaborators.
I also like how Greg Land gets nailed to the wall, but others like Luke Ross get a free pass because there's a DC in the top right-hand corner of the comics that they draw. Double-standard.
Just because some tool on the internet can make animated fading .gifs doesn't mean Greg Land has no talent. |

The difference between Greg Land & Luke Ross, is certainly not the DC bullet, Luke Ross is currently covering the pencils on Samurai Heaven & Earth, Greg Land gets both barrels because he completley & unapologeticly rips off every single pose & background he's "drawn" since he's started this new style, & he started this new style because his previous style was crap, & as for this:
"Until you can put pencil to paper and draw something that doesn't look like it was made by a blind kid"
