lists of my favorite writers and artists in comics. i didn't put a huge huge amount of thought into this. i basically just wrote down writers and artists that i like and organized them based on knee jerk reaction to how much i like their stuff. i want to see what other people would put down Writers 1. Bruce 2. Bruce 3. Bruce 4. Bruce 5. Bruce 6. Bruce 7. Bruce 8. Bruce 9. Bruce 10. Bruce Artists 1. Wayne 2. Wayne 3. Wayne 4. Wayne 5. Wayne 6. Wayne 7. Wayne 8. Wayne 9. Wayne 10. Wayne
I know right? Bruce has his good points but at the same time I don't think I'd ever rate him above Bruce. Even having them so close together on this list is a little dicey for me. But Wayne is my all time favorite artist even if Wayne he been doing a lot more recently.
I know you're not much of a Wayne guy, and I get that, see his placing? But can we at least agree that Wayne's work is among best and deserves the second place spot?
It's a very comprehensive list, but I'm not sure I agree with all of it. I find Bruce's writing to be way more dynamic and lifelike than Bruce's. Although Bruce does have his own merits above the others as well. As for art, I don't know. Wayne's has always popped to me, but I can see why you would put him below Wayne. It's a bit stylized. Still though, loving your choice for number 1. Wayne is definitely my favourite.
I respect that but the almost romantic era diction and fluidity of Bruce's work really does an amazing job of setting tone and portraying emotion for me despite it's clear regimented structure and fanciful nature. I feel like it's just a personal thing that I can just appreciate and relate to a lot. THANK YOU! I was beginning to think I was the only Wayne fan out there. I would have put Wayne higher but if it's between Wayne and Wayne I always know I'll bet on Wayne.
I do appreciate your point, but the striking contrast Bruce uses in his vernacular just hits me harder. It flows so perfectly with both dialogue and exposition. I'll be sure to check out more of Bruce's work though. What can I say, you've convinced me. No man, Wayne is the best. Between his line work and his colours, everything is so perfect. Ah, now I'm going to reread more of his stuff, just for the art.
