Who's your favorite author???

I have a lot of favorite author but I didn't see a lot of american comic so I don't really have a American favorite author except Jim Davis(Author of Garfield)

I do have some Korean author I like.

1)Kangfull
Probably the starter of Korean Webcomic.He made about 8 comic so far.

Love comic's of him
Love comic:Love story of a high school girl and a normal office worker
(made as a movie later and got selected as "The best webcomic scence")
The scence
(It's in Korean but it won't be that hard to understand.It's about their love getting deeper and deeper and reminding each other by looking at something that they've done to each other.)

Special comic
26years:Assassination story to bring justice to a evil dictador
(currently I'm translating as 30 years)

2)Caramel
His drawing is so cute and different from japanese comic.

leftover
Story of normal Korean boy who is having a hard time after serving the military.Later it turn in to a romantic story.

Ms.Stationary store lady
Story of a girl bum looking for her Dad's gold pot which she lost it.It have pretty a good ending.


3)Yellow Gumi
It's an Korean Artist who lived in Japan when she was young and later came to Korea to study.She tried to enter Bandai,A japanese company famous for gundam.But she later find out this is not her way and start to draw comic.She made "Korean Japanese story" which talk about her childhood and experiences in Korea.She later make "Cutlet Job".She named it like that because Japanese eat Cutlet before taking the test.It's about her trying to get the job and bandai.She's currently Making "The Three time" Which is a fiction comic of different unique character.It talk about social problem of Korea and Japan.The reason why I wrote so much is because I personally know her by chatting.But I'm not traslating the comic because is too Korean to translate for me.

The Three Time(The Yellow girlwearing Mickey-mouse like hat is the Author)

I have thousand more like "Let's fight Ghost"Which is about a boy beating up the ghosts to earn money to get rid of his power to see ghost.Or "The Circle of compassion which is about crazy school life of 2 boy and girl.Or "2 dimentional Comic"Which is simple Gag comic famous for having only 2 panel a comic.Welcome to room 305 was pretty good even if it was a gay comic.It's a comedy comic that is not a BL but is about a boy who somehow have to use the same room with a gay who is really dirty.Very funny comic which try to say we should try to understand them,Not hate them.Unidentified Habiting Object was really cool comic which is about an alien have entered an peaceful village trying to take back the object it have lost.Some who have the Object is a blind grandmother.While that happen,Her son is a reporter and go to the peaceful town to report the truth of the missing pilot from a fighter Jet crash.

There's so more to say but it will be too many.What's your favorite comic???

Sam Kieth. And Jim Balent, before he went independent.
 
 
"You tell yourself to just
enjoy the process," he added. "That whether you succeed or fail, win or
lose, it will be fine. You pretend to be Zen. You adopt detachment, and
ironic humor, while secretly praying for a miracle."

I think the best comic book artist of all is Jack Kirby. Yeah, I know it's an unoriginal answer, but that's the way I feel. I like the dynamic and powerful nature of his figures. I like how he draws machines to look sorta Aztec. And, well, the unmatched scope of his imagination and the roster of enduring characters he's created or co-created certainly have an effect on me too.

I think the best comic book artist alive is Jaime Hernandez, with John Romita Jr. following close behind.

Oh hell yeah, I'm a big fan. However if I had to pick a single favorite it'd be Nate Powell: http://seemybrotherdance.org/
I've been getting more into Derek Kirk Kim lately too: http://derekkirkkim.blogspot.com/

Aurora Borealis makes a pretty good point. It's next to impossible to just pick one. My opinion on who's the greatest can change from moment to moment. A lot of it can depend on the mood I'm in.

I often want to read some Kirby stuff, but occasionally I also go for Wally Wood. Sometimes I feel like Neal Adams, and at other times I want to look at Eric Powell or Sergio Aragones.

I can name forty or fifty people without straining my mind at all. I'm guessing most of us can.

As was mentioned before me, it's hard to narrow it down to only a few, but I have a couple in particular I'm fond of.

Ben Templesmith


Skottie Young


Mike Mignola


And, manga wise, Hideshi Hino


I... Read a lot of horror.

If I have to pick one, it would have to be Fred Hembeck . In fact, this picture was commissioned by my father and given to me as a birthday present. It's hanging on my wall now.

currently Adam Warren, who writes and draws Empowered. I'll admit, it's pretty manga influenced, but it works and it's done excellently. Also, it's drawn in only pencil, so you can really see how far that medium can be pushed, suffice to say, it's not as far as anyone here pushes it, including me.

I don't know what the local climate is like, but I've caught some flak in other areas for my fave.
The art of Jim Lee was what got me into comics in the first place. I've picked up a few others over the years, but Mr. Lee's the mainstay of my list of faves.

I really like Ryan Ottley. http://www.ryanottley.com/

He did the majority of the art for Invincible and is now working on another Robert Kirkman book called "Haunt" The first issue just came out and it looks pretty interesting.
