Re: Animated Series: "Spectacular Spider-Man"

Did you read the interview? Also Spider-Man is over 500 issues in the Marvel Universe. And that's just Amazing Spider-Man.

As the series producer put it, they'll always have stories. It's just about which ones they want to choose. There are many, many villians that haven't been introduced yet. It seems like they threw everything at us because they've pretty much introduced us to the most popular of Spider-Man's villians but there are more. And there are many sagas that include many of the characters that have already been introduced and don't have much importance right now.

Also, you need to find a way to catch the Season Finale with Venom. It's a good one.

Any clue as to where i can find the last 2-3 eps of the season?

Forget it, Youtube rocks

This is nuts. I'm looking at these images and it kinda angers me. If I had known that this sort of art would have been acceptable in Marvel I would have continued drawing. I only stopped because I never felt I was talented enough because I couldn't draw the typical comic book hero. But I can draw these characters.

I'd like to take a look at some of your stuff man.

I kinda stopped. I've concentrated mostly on writing now and that's where I'm looking to finish.

I do graphic design work for a company but nothing too amazing.

I have two cousins that used to draw with me when we were younger and we've all expressed an interest in working together again. If I can ever become successful enough as a writer then I'm hoping to maybe do some kind of graphic novel with them. Or a comic strip. I don't know. Something.

I remember Longhorn (was it Longhorn? I could be confusing the poster) showed us a graphic novel he was working on. I wonder where he's at with that. I'd love to get involved in a similar project with my cousins. It'll happen sometime in the near future and when it does, I'll show you some stuff.

Yup, that was me. I'm still working on the story, though it has slowed down quite a bit due to the fact that my would-be-artist dropped out of the plan, so I have plenty of time to keep working. I think, since the last time I updated you guys, I've only finished the first fight between the main characters. Granted, it was a very long "fight" (struggle, may be a better word), but I need to get my act together.

My man, I'm telling you flat out, Galloway is an excellent artist. His skillset isn't obvious to amateurs, but trust me, it's there. That's why they hired him. Sure, he's simple and exaggerated, but I assure you that unless you were throwing offers in the garbage, you have not yet gotten to the point where you could do what he's doing.

Re: Animated Series: "Spectacular Spider-Man"

I downloaded the whole series, except episode 3 (which is taking a lot longer than the rest did), based solely off the hype in here (I'm a pretty big Marvel fan). I watched the first two episodes, and so far so good. Though, Born thinks that the animator is god's gift to drawing, I thought it was a little wierd and took some getting used too (then again, I'm not an art head and am used to the 90's Spidey cartoon). However, the story is good enough so far to make me want to check out the rest. If that damn episode 3 would download, I'd be back on track and could fly through the season!

Whoa there, holmes. I'm saying that rank amateurs should check themselves before they say that they can pick up a pencil and outperform the man. Whether you like him or not is entirely up to you. It's art, it's subjective. You can hate it for all I care.

Hate is a strong word. I said it was a little weird to me and took some getting used to. Overall though, I like the show.

I never said you hated it, I just said it's your right to hate. I also never said Sean was God's gift to drawing. People can fall in love with a piece of art, and they can also have an equally opposite reaction. Often, the point of art is to provoke, and if it provokes hatred so be it. But disliking a piece and thinking you can do a better job are two different things, and that's my point.

I definitely came off wrong. What I was saying is that if I had continued to draw I would be at a similar level. I stopped drawing religiously when I was about 13.

I'm not saying my drawings would have been better than Galloway's but I am saying that my art form was similar. So if I had continued I could probably have improved dramatically. I mean, we're talking about 13 years since I've actually tried drawing on a regular basis.

I wasn't a wannabe artist. I could and can still draw. But I'm not at that level and I realize that. I'm only saying that I could have been had I worked on it.

Fair enough. That all makes sense.

Re: Animated Series: "Spectacular Spider-Man"

I've watched a good portion of the series. I think it's a solid Saturday morning cartoon. I'll watch it when I'm awake but I'm not always awake that early. I would like to catch the Venom episode though.
