If you like that, Veronica -- you're gonna LOVE this costume!

^ Ugh, those lips,those cheeks --reasons why I don't like Parent's style.

Oh, how she loves him  :D

He draws all the women that way. At least it's better than what Erica scribbles.  :2funny:

It doesn't really bother me, he more than makes up for it in other ways.

I know he draws all of them that way. It bothers me. He's my least favorite artist of the Classic style artists. But yes, you are right, Erica is even worse, luckily I don't read the reboot series so I don't come across her awful scribbles all the time  ;)

It's a slight annoyance; an artistic quirk. There is NO WAY that that even begins to negate all the good work he's done for Archie Comics. If it were not for Dan Parent, I honestly do not believe that Archie Comics would have survived the last 5 years, maybe the last 10 years. They might still have gone on cranking out all-reprint digests, but that's about all. You can dislike his style all you want, but he's been more important to the company in the 21st century than anyone, and kept the company from eroding faster than it would have without him. I don't say that as a slight to any of the other artists that worked for ACP until now, it's just a fact. He's not just an artist who draws the scripts handed to him. He's a character creator, an ace graphic designer, and one of the best writers the company has had in the last 25 years. That's the reason (again, no slight intended to the others) that he's the sole surviving classic Archie creator.

Be that as it may, the guy draws an ugly face profile  :P

I found that story Jug and Veronica cause a scandal.  ;D


Ronnie believes that Archie and Betty are up to no good in the small hours. She plans to follow Archie's car.


<snip>


Mr Lodge is hilarious! ;D  "I'm not taking your love away from you!"


I love that story. The hilarious part is that no one seems bothered, Mr. Lodge least of all, but then again he is a Jughead/Veronica shipper

Despite that, I really love that his styling of the characters is often variable, giving the girls different hairstyles and trendy clothes befitting modern trends.

He's awesome but I would guess the main reason they kept him last was that he's so connected to Kevin.

Forget what I said in the other threads about Jughead always being sweet and nice.

;D Yeah, he'd much rather have Jughead as a son-in-law.
