The History of Crappy Art, Part 2
Thursday, October 2, 2008 at 12:33PM Remember the old Marvel Try-Out Book from the 80's? Yeah, that one. The one that launched the career of Marvel star and current Trinity feature artist, Mark Bagley? Well, I did those same samples too (much later of course). These pages predate the last batch I posted ( think this was somewhere around '92 or '93) so they're even more hideous. Why am I showing these? Hell if I know. Pity Mike Norton from 1993...

I know Mike Will never believe this but I think those pages are AWESOME! The action really jumps out at you. I like the composition and the motion in them is impressive.
I gotta say, these are better than the other old pages.
Sure, the first couple of pages have a pin-head and a dislocated neck and musculature right out of Bart Sears' handbook ("Brutes & Babes," anyone?), but the storytelling IS crisp (as Josh at iFanboy pointed out) and the work isn't bad at all. Then I got to the last page with all the bored looking people surrounding Spider-Man. . . Stiff. But clearly the seeds are there of something that would grow and evolve into something much better and entertaining today.
Mike, my name is Adam, and we met at WW Chicago over the summer, and again at the Baltimore Con a couple weeks ago, purely on a geek/creator basis. But you seemed like a cool dude. I am sure you get this all the time. I live in Chicago, and I have a book I am working on, and would like to send you the script. Crime with a bit of sci-fi. If you are at all interested please email me and I will send it to you. I couldn't find any contact info on your site.
I think those pages look pretty good, there are some obvious errors but i have seen worse art get published by Marvel and DC
Yep, there are going to be alot of people seeing this post and hating you Mike Norton. I agree with the post above, worse pages get published all the time.
