Is it just me that thinks the artwork done by Antonio Fuso for the G.I. Joe Cobra Civil War: Cobra comics is just plain horrible. Don't get me wrong, the storyline is great but I think they should have all three comics combined (Cobra Civil War: Cobra, Cobra Civil War: G.I. Joe, Cobra Civil War: Snake Eyes) and have only dedicated true artists like Robert Atkins, David Williams, Javier Saltares, or even Jonboy Meyer do the artwork for the story. I vote for Robert Atkins

That's funny. I like it better than the other Joe comic books by IDW.

If annoyed means impressed, then yes.
I enjoy Fuso's work and think it fits the tone of the book perfectly. |

I am not a fan the artwork at all.

He's not my favorite artist, but I'm ok with him. There are some times where I have to study the panel to catch exactly what is happening, seemingly more than usual. That's my only practical gripe.
I'm enjoying all of the books for different reasons, although I would say Snake Eyes is my favorite of the three (artwork and story). |

IMO it rocks. it's a different book than Joe and snake-eyes, it really stands apart from them. it has a more real-world, gritty feel to it thanks to the look and is the one I enjoy the most of the 3 series (but Snake-eyes is a close 2nd)

I've mentioned a few times that Fuso's style works with slower paced stories. When the story gets into full on action (ie battle scenes) is when I feel that the art isn't working. It's like watching a sci-fi film with poorly done special effects.

Every panel is sort of hit and miss with me - inconsistent at best.

It is just horrible, flat out horrible, they could have just hired me to draw a bunch of stick figures and could have paid me less than they are probably paying them

When I look at an individual frame, I think that the art is lackluster. When I think of the overall storytelling of the Cobra books, I feel it is some of the best Joe material ever produced. In comics I feel that storytelling is impacted by the art. So he must be doing something right?
