I hate to say it but no, your best work was the gl rebirth covers. Especially #1 with spectre. I dunno if it's the times but you lost a step.

That wasn't any good. Nice gimmick with the hidden Parallax face. But not a well drawn cover.

CYBERFROG BLOODHONEY crushes everything I've ever done combined.

Anyhow, here's the colored JAWBREAKERS GOD KING:

That's beautiful, I bet Zack looked at that and shed a single tear <3

I bet when he was a mere comicbook fan, he had no idea that he'd be in a lawsuit with an admittedly great writer and in cahoots with a great artist!

Go mainstream guise! But we're also gonna go after you every time you do like we've already proven.

Yes, CG Creators (or anyone in the comic book industry, tbh) are widely known for having tons of cash on hand to a point where they should cut someone else into the profit for no real discernable reason.

I liked the Green and Blue monsters more from the previous version, but other than that everything else looks good.

YBZ did a video on how it came about / Rich Johnson's article saying EVS traced some GL cover for the god king. Despite it being a stock bad guy pose.

Zack does have a eye for this sort of thing. I'm impressed how fast he has become a competent indie publisher.

Video also starts off with his next Iron Sights project being nearly complete, he's definitely working hard.

It's about perception of colors in regards to where our brain puts them in 3D space. Warmer colors are perceived to be closer than cooler (think aerial perspective bluish tint). In the first version the Bad Guy was in the background more and in the second he is leveling plane- wise with the guys in the foreground. Whole image lost it's depth perception and brain scrambles to put Bad Guy in the foreground with foreground being placed in the background as the guys are cooler tone now in comparison. Add actual size diffrence between the figures and it even gets more scrambled. For whole color composition to read well it either should have been the cyan bg and violetish foreground (1st version), or red/yellowish foreground with magenta-ish bg.


Other than that, it seems that getting demoted given Joe Q some creative kick in the ass and freed his time to actually work on, you know, comics. Which I'm glad for, because he is talented motherfucker. (Even tho he is actually insufferable otherwise.)

I think the red and orange helps the cover "pop" more.

lol I just prefer lovecraftian monsters with pale/darker/cold colors. Bright orange and red (accentuated by an orange mist) just seem overly flashy for them imo. Middle monster is perfect as is, btw:

Orange mist is also a miss for me, I think a dark pale blue or gray would've worked better atmosphere wise:

The cover looks amazing, it's just a nitpick for me.

Late as fuck, but since I don't see any mention of it here I'll post it.
Last week George 'they dragged me to a tribunal!' Alexopoulos did a 90min interview with Adam Friended.
If you want a definitive portrait of the kind of bitter and twisted looser, chimping from the Comicsgate sidelines, give it a look.
Alexopoulos was the reddit comic guy who's humorous strips were dog-piled into oblivion when somebody found out he liked Jordan Peterson, which is kind of amusing because he badly needs to clean his room, but it seems he'd rather spend his time stewing in envy and bitterness then put his house in order.


Alexopoulos comes across as an hilariously slimy, pseudo-intellectual, B-tier Bond villain as he twists and turns at every request for a shred of evidence to support his narrative. Then he goes full tin-foil hat conspiracy theorist (spoiler EVS is directing all the harassment in Comicgate) and ends with some pathetic sucking up to Friended in the hopes that he's got a new ally to listen to him, despite the fact that it couldn't be more clear that Friended has nothing but contempt for the sad sack.

Just like on the Killstream, Thomas (gas chamber dude) and Rumble came off as autistic spergs so does this Pussyopoulos.

TBH I do wonder how much power Sana Amanat actually holds at Marvel, CG youtubers tend to blame her exclusively for Marvel's decent into SJWdom.

For what it's worth, she's related (IIRC a cousin of) Huma Abedin (Hillary Clinton's battle butler and wife of disgraced pedophile Anthony Weiner). So that is most likely how she got her job (IE friends in high places and BFFS with Disney folks who could force her onto Marvel).

It's rumored that Sana Amanat got her gig at Marvel EXPLICITLY to turn it into an SJW propaganda mill due to the fact that SJW elites recognize the reach of comics and the growing money printing machine that was comic movies at the time. This plus the fact that Marvel in the 00s was quite conservative with Mark Millar's Ultimates and Civil War being conservative themed, the fact that Marvel (unlike DC) treated George W Bush very respectfully and even shilled the WMD myth about Iraq in various stories of that era, and Tom Brevoort's infamous gaff where he said he was glad to see National Guardsman all over the streets of New York after 9-11 (in terms of the left shitting on Brevoort for saying he felt comfortable living in a police state).
