Personally always really loved the art for BONE, something about it is really comfy, and I'm a bit biased since it makes me nostalgic

I really liked the first two books, but I felt that the zany nature was lost when it decided to become way more serious and 'epic' in order to appeal to the Lord of the Rings crowd. Or whatever the hell Jeff Smith was trying to accomplish. Either way, it's still a really good series, just falls into some tired tropes.

I'm not saying it was trying to be Lord of the Rings, I'm saying that was the audience they were hoping to gain from it. People who read Lord of the Rings.

Netflix has a weird track record with animated stuff. They have produced good stuff like Hilda and Kipo ,but on the other hand, we have stuff like Hoops and Disenchanted. I don't think we have to worry about it being CGI since it's an American property + not anime, BUT, we do have to worry about them inserting stuff like straying too far from the story, personal politics, lgbt+ OCs not in the original story, and canceling too early. Netflix seems to have a nasty track record with the list mentioned above.

If you miss the zany nature of the first books, you'd probably like Stupid Stupid Rat Tails, which is a rather funny spinoff about the Bones ancestor Big Johnson Bone getting into shenanigans in the Valley.

Cerebus Dave Sim & Gerhard is probably my favorite comic visually. The characters are SUPER expressive, it's got undeniably the most creative lettering I've ever seen, the hyper-detailed backgrounds just look gorgeous, and it's really cool to see a Fantasy setting with a somwhat-Victorian aesthetic.

Bone is also one of my favorites; preferably the black & white one, as it lets you appreciate the backgrounds and character design more
Also >>124382959 is consistently good
Other artyle/artists I love are
Mike Mignola (Hellboy)
Eroc Powell (The Goon)
Frank Miller (Sin City)
Sam Keith (The Maxx)
David Petersen (Mouse Guard)
Skottie Young (I Hate Fairyland)

I have a pretty short list because I’m not very deep into /co/ media. I’ll go from most tame to least.

>Amy Winfrey
Most of her works have somewhat stiff animation, but I think they’re still appealing and the animation adds to the old-school flash animation charm. Dark and colorful.
>The Chapman Brothers
The character design is more bizarre and is more colorful as well. Also old-school flash related.
>PsychicPebbles and OneyNG
Grotesque animation that falls on the more vulgar side of old school flash toons. Very entertaining, especially Leo and Satan and also Hellbenders.
>Gerald Scarfe
Extremely grotesque and very fluid as well, and it’s also traditional animation, so that’s a major bonus. I like abstract weird stuff. His work in The Wall is my favorite.

Josh Kollins is a good example, his art feels super kinetic and awesome, his art alone made my first read of blitz magical. For other artist id say

>Mike Wieringo
His art style was just comfy and unique but translated super well into action.

>Steve Ditko
His art style is somehow a time capsule of the golden age in the silver age, something about it always screamed very timeless about it.

>Mike Allred
His style just perfectly embodies what I love about comics, i.e the kinetic eccentric designs with the amazing colors that pop with every panel.

>John Paul Leon
I always loved how simplistic his style was but it also had a certain level of detail, the finale of earth x was just amazing to look at.

It was basically trying to be Cerebus for kids, first few volumes are lighthearted wacky adventures then midway, the scale of the story becomes epic, the lore is now important, and the stakes grow so high that major characters could actually die.

I especially love how they use a simplified, abstract style, usually meant for episodic sitcom cartoons, for epic, emotional Ghibli-style stories.

It makes them so much more impactful than if they had used a more "realistic" studio style.

Off the top of my head, I'm a fan of Geof Darrow, Jamie Hewlett, Tradd Moore, Jean Giraud (a.k.a Moebius), James Stokoe, Brett Parson and Josan Gonsalez, who technically isn't a /co/ artist but was definitely inspired by some of my favorites. My preference is a "grunge-y", over-the-top style where the artist puts an absurd amount of detail into the smallest things. The runner-up would be anything that combines 2D characters with 3D environments, like >>124384404. I think it's a totally underrated style that should be tried more often.

My favorite "style" from a general standpoint would have to be anything technically flawless, but with relative simplicity of line work and shapes. Think of like Alex Toth. But a lot of the artists that I like don't fit that. I also tend to get into anything with impressively extreme levels of detail, but without any kind of "ugly" aesthetic. Art Adams being probably the ultimate example.
