Frank Cho talks "Mighty Avengers"

[jaydawg]

Well, there are relatively few gay comic book readers.

 

[Kevin]

You know you say few like 3, right?

 

[Artistsean]

Wait, he said that he doesn't make his men attractive or something? Wait, what did he say?

 

[Kevin]

I have no qualms about drawing men. They're actually easier to draw since I don't have to worry about making them attractive. The only bump in the road in drawing a team book is getting the costumes right.

...

post 3000... yay

 

[Kotagg]

You know you say few like 3, right?

I'd say that's about right. 4, if you count Darthphere.

 

[Kevin]

...Bastard. But really, there's like whole communities of gays who read comics.

 

[Kotagg]

Yeah, I'm just joshin ya. But honestly, it isn't that big a deal. It's just one man's opinion, and he's obviously going to be biased since he's straight. Don't worry, you'll get your men in tights still.

 

[Kevin]

Cho's kool. And I'm not really upset as I find his men already attractive. I'm just saying, he should at least try to make them better looking if he can, but he doesn't need to.

 

[hippie_hunter]

You guys are right, Cho's work is amazing. Personally I hope Wolverine stays out of the Avengers, still just doesnt feel right. Pretty cool lineup on Mighty, any clue what the other lineup will be on Cap's team?

Captain America, Spider-Man, and Wolverine have been confirmed to be on the New Avengers.

My guess is that the team will also include Bendis favorites Spider-Woman and Luke Cage.

So that leaves about two or three slots left on the team. I'm guessing Falcon, Bendis favorite Daredevil, and if he joins the Avengers Thor, if not Iron Fist.

 

[Artistsean]

I like that New Avenger line up: Captain America, Spider-Man, Wolverine, Daredevil, Spider-Woman, Luke Cage, and Thor. Although I think Herculese might be one of the team members since he seems to be a big member of Cap's CW team. What if Punisher joined the team?

I was just think, looking at some of Cho's art, he draws real manly men. They are big and strong with square jaws, even his Peter.

I think men are easier for him to draw since he is a man, I mean thats how it is with me. And I think thats how it is with most artists, mena and women.

 

[Kevin]

No one else think it's kinda, I don't know, OVERKILL to have Ares, Ms. Marvel, Wonderman, Ironman, and Sentry on one team? I'm more than sure each of them have superstrength, and you really only need, like, 2 of them to be in their own powerteam.

 

[Kevin]

^^I'm new to drawing( all I can do is faces at the moment) it's easier for me to draw women's faces.

 

[Artistsean]

yeah, but they are suppossed to be Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Why not have overkill.

 

[Kevin]

How do I even reaspond to that? What's the point of having a team when you really only need 2 of them? It kinda made sense with New Avengers, but All they really needed was Ironman.

 

[hippie_hunter]

All they needed was Sentry, but Bendis has no idea how to use him.

 

[Kevin]

Oh, Sentry's just poo.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Oh, Sentry's just poo.

Who uses poo these days as a insult

 

[Kevin]

Aunt may?

So I take it you are a guy.
I was reffering to bodies though, not that women's faces are easy. But trying to draw a female figure is hard, at first. At least for me and, I have heard, lots of other artists.

 

[Kevin]

I know what you meant. I find ANY body hard to do. But since I'm a guy, I know what to put what where... you know what I mean,

 

[Artistsean]

I think so, wait maybe not. Are you talking about knowing how to drawing a male figure?

 

[Darthphere]

I'd say that's about right. 4, if you count Darthphere.

We're queer, we're here.

 

[Darthphere]

I think he's a fantastic artist, but what the **** does he mean he doesn't have to worry about his men being attractive?!? **** you, cho!!

Yeah, that line didnt make much sense. I doubt he even actually reads comics, because he'd know every male superhero is drawn like a Calvin Klein model or something.

 

[IronMan_2005]

Frank Cho's drawings are great, I love his Iron Man and Ares, along with all the other characters.

I would love to see the New Avengers too, I know Cap is on the team, and probably Spider-Man since he is now in real need of some super back up. But the rest?
Maybe Iron Fist, or whoever is in the Daredevil costume, maybe Herculese, maybe Captain Marvel (once he is brought back to life), Maybe Punisher, maybe a few of the major players from Cap's team in Civil War.

I have a question though, if Iron Man is the leader of his side on Civil War then why isn't he leading the Mighty Avengers? It looks like the team leader is Ms. Marvel.

He's never lead any Avengers team, in the regular Avengers, Cap lead the team(obiously) and in Avengers West Coast and Force Works, Wanda the Scarlett Witch lead the teams, which he formed.

But yeah, I think the Marvel writers are going to do something VERY stupid like take Tony Stark out of the armor or kill him off like Joe Q hinted.

Ironman isn't Ironman without Tony in the armor!!

 

[Darthphere]

Sure he is. Like hes the only person in the world to have put on the armor and call himself Iron Man. LOL!
