I'll never forget when Bill Sienkiewicz took over the art chores on New Mutants back in the day. It seemed so jarring a change as compared to the artwork that preceded it, but I was curious enough to check it out. It read like a movie to me, I was surprised how well it worked.

For me, though, nothing was more jarring than Frank Miller's artwork for DAREDEVIL #181 (particularly the climax of Bullseye vs. Elektra).
Evidently, nobody else has even heard of Bill Sienkiewicz.
I have. His art is one of the main reasons why I *quit* reading many Marvel comics back in the mid 1980s. I hated it fervently. Imo he deserves to be forgotten. Minority opinion I am sure; but I don't care.
I hear you, brother. I felt the same way about the art work done by Franks Robbins and Springer for Batman stories in Detective Comics during the early 1970's!
I guess we all have artists we love and those we hate. My favorite one btw was Russ Manning, who drew for neither Marvel nor DC but for Gold Key (creating Magnus Robot Fighter for one thing) and drew various comic strips and comic books including Tarzan and Star Wars. Died at way too young an age in 1981 at age 52.
Dear Ross: how about a four-part fantasy adventure involving Conan the Barbarian? In part one, he teams up with Moon Knight* and the Elongated Man against Felix Faust. In part two, Ralph introduces him to Green Arrow and Black Canary. Perhaps with the three of them teaming up against Taskmaster and the Silver Banshee. The vocal battle between the latter and BC resulting in some mystic portal opening up and sending Conan to Skartaris for part three. A reunion with Travis Morgan! And, there, the two of them battle Kulan Gath who will use something called the Loc-Nar to send Conan to a planet on the other side of our galaxy ruled by someone called...Den.**
*He did become a cab driver (a la "Jake Lockley") while stranded in the 20th century during one of his "What If...?" stories back in the Eighties---Cary.
**Yes, John Candy's criminally under-rated episode from the animated s-f feature HEAVY METAL.
wow,what a difference an artist can make. Deathstroke ever take meds now??
Promethium-based ones, most likely. I mean, wasn't there some kind of Secret Six knock-off, founded by Steve "Mento" Dayton, where the team members had bionic limbs made of/powered by promethium?
Yeah; they were called "the Hybrids." But, they were more like super-villains than anti-heroes.
'Super-villains' because Mento was mind-controlling them...
You know something? That would make a great team-up, here. Mento's Hybrids versus Helmut Zemo's incarnation of the Thunderbolts!
