Yes!! You have this video thank you so much!!! I just watched this today I was really inspired to make a comic book marvel style. I never thought I would ever see this Video again. Thanks once again!!
DC Take notes lol but this is really helping me out. I always had depth to my character, but to the entire scene it just didnt look right. and hopefull i can use this to do my brand new comic with my own character with some SOOUUUUUUULLL!!! lol
Jeezus the profound amount of learning in this lesson blows my mind. They're giving it away. I struggled for years to understand this principle and it's being given away here! You can't understand how lucky you are if you studying now that youtube makes things accessible all the time.
The upside of this book is that the information on dramatizing and composition (never up and down! NEVER!) are still true.
But the downside is that you can't teach storytelling and you can't teach the amount of ambition and work it takes to finish one issue of even one bad comic, let alone a great one.Also I find that the way they drew characters then is dated looking now. Now everything drowns under details added as people copy Jim Lee's style. I prefer old school power.
@droid740 I hate people that copy Jim Lee, I myself am very detailed in my comics, because that's how I am, I dra my shadows, casted shadows, ect, but it wasn't because of him, it was me using natural observation, and I add grit lines over people and objects, just to add a little grittiyness
@MegaHuddleston I used to copy Jim Lee, then study to get it right, until I'd rather use it my own style when I found out some recommended art books like "Drawing From Life" is what these copycats should had been using it, as long as they kept drawing, how do you think Jack Kirby made it for a living in the first place?
@LopezMelendez I just learned over the years of studying the human figure, I had anatomy books since I was 6, etc. But it was studying people in font of me, how the light plays with their body, how shadows are casted, how the wrinkles in cloths look, I do not use any reference or my figures, and they look like I drew from photos, but I'm not, it's all outta muscle memory :)
Someone tell me for other types of comics does the same cylindrical, square and circle rules apply - the other comics do not seem to be that 'squarish'. Sorry if this is a dumb question - i am new at this. so please anyone ?
It's funny to watch this again after so many years. It seems odd to me, Marvel - in my opinion- has always been the better of the two major comic book companies. DC has always seemed to play second fiddle to Marvel even with it's cadre of popular superheroes (Superman / Batman / Wonder Woman / etc...). I always felt that Marvel's lineups were more creative and varied than DC's.
Watching this though, how they keep emphasizing the "Marvel Way" of drawing versus other competitors. Funny :]
@mikepalomino no kidding, i have to give super man props for pretty much being the first action mainline comic book character to beat the test of time, but he was way to over powered to begin with, and only beat Marvels Golden human torch by a year, but no doubt that marvel was inspired by "action comics #1" but right after that Marvel was always greater then DC in everything from characters (wolverine and spider-man) to story-line (uncanny X-men, and The Dark Phoenix Saga) so yea, marvels great
@lahadc I must say that Superman had to be over powered for he helped set the standers of what to do and not do when making a super hero. I also think that Marvel and DC have both had about the same number of successes and failures. I find that DC cartoons to be better than Marvel one. This is just me talking.
@lahadc I think much of the credit has to go to Stan Lee for that. He really was the creative spark that set Marvel apart from DC. Don't get me wrong, nothing wrong with DC (for anyone who thinks I'm hating on them); Batman and the Green Lantern are arguably my favorites from DC. But I always find myself coming back to the likes of Spiderman, Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk :)

@AIMANALI they're just basic shapes. they don't have to be that 'squarish' once you draw the final lines.
