That cover looks nice. How badly does the interior art disappoint?
Noah Richardson
Yea Forums is dead
Brayden Rivera
I enjoyed this a lot more than Jodorowshy's other comics. But I've only read The Incal and Before the Incal, I don't know how The Technopriests or After the Incal compares.
Charles Howard
This is a European comic you retarded fucking mutt.
Matthew Hernandez
well for starters the technopriests has WAAAAY worse art, and secondly the intrigue is a lot harder to follow
Julian Rogers
Awright newfag, I'm gonna tell you a story...
Actually I'm not; I'm just gonna post an actually-random page from the middle of the series.
Christopher Garcia
I said what I needed to say to see the interior art.
Hunter Hill
...so I guess the actual answer is "not at all, but the word bubbles are way larger than they need to be, which is annoying because it covers the art."
Sebastian Miller
not gonna lie, i'd probably trade my dick n balls for some ass-kickin cybernetics, metabaronic weaponry and a badass horse any day of the week
Logan Johnson

Nolan Peterson
No, that's not what you're guessing, it's what you're pretending to think in order to try and save face after wrongfully assuming that the interior art doesn't match the cover (even though it does) because you're a retarded amerimutt whose local comic book industry has abysmal standards.
That's what your statement is.
Xavier Ramirez
I keep wanting to get into Metabarons but always forget it even exists. One day Ill buy one of those big collected volumes.
The small bits of it Ive read in some rare metabaron storytime threads are always awesome.
Camden Thomas
Wrong.
Lincoln Adams
Dude naw; I'm actually the same guy that posted
replying to myself because it ACTUALLY IS annoying that the word bubbles are way oversized. What I meant was the bubbles 1, 3, and 4 are taking up too much page space.
A lot of the time they NEED to be that big because Metabarons is a fucking novel, but in a good way. See: next page.
Luke King
Hey faggot, guess what, turns out there can be more than one retarded amerimutt who assumes every comic book is as terrible as US comics.
Jeremiah Torres
>What I meant was the bubbles 1, 3, and 4 are taking up too much page space.
bull fucking shit
Joshua Walker
The fuck is this thread? Good art thread or for this specific book or the creator or what/
Samuel Torres
It probably has something to do with the fact that the comic was originally in French.
It's published by Humanoids. That's reason enough to assume it looks like shit if you don't know better.
Luis Cruz
The parts inside pink squares are taking up valuable page-space that could be full of scrumptious pictures.
Jason James
Agree: I started thinking that while I was drawing pink squares. This shit's WAY harder to redraw than manga word-bubbles.
Angel Long
There are plenty of eurocomics with subpar art which gets a pass solely from being euro. Mostly cookie cutter and western shit that is barely removed from cape and yet it gets a pass.
That being said, at least the first Metabarons volumes all have fantastic art, I haven't read the last ones and I wouldn't put my han on the fire because ridiculous digital gradientpuke colloring and awful looking sub-manga stuff that fails as both comics and manga are things in european books as well.
Luis Murphy
go ahead and insult me but Ledroit lost a lot of what made his art actually exciting as he became more technically proficient. Dark Moon vols 1 and 2 are just absurd, where the guy can go from Moebius to Rubens to Joe Vigil in an almost accidental way, while also delivering a wonky but powerful art which truly benefits the (honestly, nothing-to-write-about) story.
By the 3rd volume, it feels like he conquered technique, but the price he paid for that was becoming a baroque charicature of his actually exciting work.
Nathan Sanchez
>Juan Giminez is the only thing that makes me feel good for being argentinan
>tfw no idea wherw the fuck he is now
Eli Morales
alberto varanda is great too
Jacob Price
Stupid fucking zoomer Americans
Andrew Garcia
Hue here, don't feel bad, Jorge Zaffino is one of the GOATs, El Eternauta is fantastic, I really like Quiño, Jorge Zaffino's kid whose name I forgot is also great, Argentina is probably the South-American country with the highest good cartoonist per capita ratio, not to mention your fantastic literature. Alfajor is the shit as well.
William Reed
that's the comic where the main protagonist get's his legs crushed by a machine as a boy right?
Nicholas Barnes
yup and due to a condition he levitate naturally so he replace his newly crushed legs with weighed down augmetics
Brandon Carter
That's simply because the original is in french...THE BIG WORDS, FANCY WRITING FRENCH, TO BE EXACT. When translated to other languages, english in particular, you get a lot of unused space, especially when you use the same font.That's the problem with having speech bubbles in the original art.
Jonathan Campbell
also his ancestor gets their hands chopped off using an ARTIFACT FROM ANCIENT EARTH TIMES (which is actually just a ham slicer from a deli)
