  • Steveinthecity: When Thor pulls the hammer back to throw, his momentum stops. He has always been able to float or hover once airborne, and he'll remain until the hammer comes back to him.  I guess the winds keep him aloft.

  • Biollante: ok so shouldn't Joe Quesada know that? lol  It made him look a bit stupid imo.
    May 21, 2012, 07:57:37 AM
  • Jabroniville: Yeah, that's odd- Thor usually has the Hammer out in front. Though I don't think it's ever explained how he can throw it while in mid-flight and not just plummet like a goof. I wish artists would stop having him do things like that :)
    May 21, 2012, 07:23:13 AM
  • Steveinthecity: @Biolante:  Thor uses the hammer to fly. He can throw his hammer during flight and float in one spot until the hammer returns to him. Don't know what Joe Q. was thinking there. I've never seen Thor fly on his own.

  • Biollante: Joe Quesada was drawing Thor on some Disney promo, and he drew him flying with his hammer on his side, now I'm not a Thor junkie, but isn't that actualy inaccurate, doesn't he fly by being dragged by his hammer???

  • Biollante: I'm just glad he's giving back to his fans by revisiting Blade Runner and Alien with Prometheus, I'm sure he's going to deliver too, his legacy as a film maker is on the line since those are his more iconic films

    May 20, 2012, 10:58:08 AM
  • Biollante: gonna be hard for anyting to catch up, Ridley Scott is pretty much the top of dark visual design imo, and he drew a lot from Moebius for that film, most fillm makers are not really connected to aestheticas of good fantasy film making in the same way

The Rising New Star Of Archie Comics?
« on: January 16, 2010, 11:47:55 PM »
Perhaps not another Dan DeCarlo, but in a whole different style?

After years of being bogged down by by a very mediocre inker, the Kennedy brothers (or father and son team or maybe even uncle and nephew or cousins?) are really putting out shining little gems lately. Just now, they are doing the covers and pretty funny ones, too.:) They make their characters VERY expressive especially in body language and also plant in many teasing little Easter eggs in tribune to older Archie stories, even body poses, too!

Perhaps good old Archie is finally coming back after all?:)

Tim Kennedy has always done solid work, and I think that he is definitely a great artist.

Though, I think Jeff Schulz has done more of an effort to make his interpretations more classic Archie.  It's very hard for me to tell a Schulz drawing from a DeCarlo...well, unless you look at the signature within it.

If anyone has the time, they should put some scans of Kennedy's artwork with and without a good inker. I remember seeing a story with him on pencils and I think Art Adams or another prominent artist as the inker. It looked a lot better.

I'm still more of a Rex Lindsey fan myself.
