There are certainly plenty of talented artists in the <i>ASM</i> creative pool (Martin and JRJR are my favorites), I'm just super, super-picky these days, and generally only pick it up when it's a writer I really like AND an artist I really like (and maybe a storyline or character interaction I'm interested in), and that only happens every once in a great while (well, "great while" being relative, given that it comes out so often now).Bella's ownerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06694141144259853852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-29796191303081523462010-02-11T15:03:44.633-08:002010-02-11T15:03:44.633-08:00I apologize for misrepresenting you.

What I meant was that you're only putting Martin up on that pedestal, when there are plenty of just-as-talented artists also regularly contributing to Amazing Spider-Man, who are just as worthy of being bought.Moryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811255096467614445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-31874239531140720492010-02-11T11:00:06.832-08:002010-02-11T11:00:06.832-08:00Only half of this Spider-Man issue was drawn by Ma...<i>Only half of this Spider-Man issue was drawn by Marcos Martin.</i> <br /><br />I did misread the credits of this issue, which were imposed upon a wire-rigging in the background art of a splash page, and so the sentence where I mention the creative team probably could be more clear. I'll take a look at fixing it.<br /><br /><i>That kind of hurts your argument that only Martin-drawn Spider-Man comics are worth reading.</i><br /><br />I didn't argue that. At least, not this week, and I don't remember doing so in the past. (There's a whole lot of Spider-Man comics reviewed on this site). I <i>did</i> say that I'd read <i>ASM</i> if it had this creative team and was a monthly.Calebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01391759187396994380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-29403446940606874742010-02-11T09:53:58.685-08:002010-02-11T09:53:58.685-08:00Only half of this Spider-Man issue was drawn by Ma...Only half of this Spider-Man issue was drawn by Marcos Martin.
