Superman by Byrne

Superman by grant morris

These comics look unreadable. The panels are messed up, and the lack of colors makes things even worse. Is it only one story or different comics? It's kinda hard to follow. All comics should have colors by default; otherwise, it's difficult to distinguish the speech bubbles from the panel content.

>>149411151
/a/ is "anime and manga" you dipshit.

>>149411304
OP literally posted a bande dessinée, anon, this is 100% a western comic. Anime and manga are from Japan. You can't post western comics on /a/.

Radiant is much more readable than many manga. With a reduced amount of speed lines. The western origin of the jokes and designs mean they land better as well.
7/10 series. Buy the volume but reread sparingly.

As long as it isn't Russian or other nonWest countries

>>149410931 (OP)
Radiant is unique among western stuff. Nothing made outside Japan comes close, not even remotely.

>>149410931 (OP)
Remington comics in the Wakfu universe. Hell a lot of the Wakfu was great especially the earlier ones.

>>149411151
Honestly, this kind of sucks. It's as unreadable as current era One Piece, but with the panel sizes of peak One Piece. It's bizarre.
As others have mentioned, there are no other comics like this.

>>149411192
I think anon is saying that a comic heavily copying manga would have a lot of similar comics over in /a/ for obvious reasons.

I like Ocoho

>>149410931 (OP)
>>>/a/

>>149414273
dumbass

I know the people on /a/ throw a fit when it is posted, despite being published in Japanese first and having an anime adaption.

>>149411298
lmao that's some good b8, I r8 it an 8/8

>>149413001
>One Piece is unreadable
No. I can read it fine. Literally millions of people read it daily. I have no problem reading Radiant either.

>>149411192
Yeah this is /a/

>>149410931 (OP)
There's Dreamland but the art isn't as refined, sorry to say. More webcomic-level than print-level if that makes sense.

>nonstop bitching that "manga is just the japanese word for comics chud"

>NO THIS IS A MANGA THIS IS A MANGA IT'S NOT A COMIC AAAAAAAAA I'M GOING INSANE
It's okay anon, comics are not bound to any particular style. Have some cool art.

>>149415585
Literally millions are highly invested in the story that's been building for 27 years. They put up with the manga until the new anime episode comes out. The art used to be fine, but it's unreadable now.

Why can't other western artists draw like this?
Serious question.

I should not need to look through the thread to find the name of the comic in the OP.

>>149415943
Radiant by Tony Valente

>>149413028
I get the feeling OP is asking for more comics like that made by white european/american guys like himself, rather than more east asians.

>>149410931 (OP)
Just so I'm clear, I am suppose to be reading this left to right, right?

>>149416364
It's drawn right to left

I don’t know why radiantanon is so focused on the splash panels. So of the better story moments occur in the regular half-page ones where a character finally crosses an emotional threshold.

>>149416350
No, OP is just trying to rile people up. He's made this thread many times.

>>149416805
All right, I'll bite. What is it that riles you up exactly? Do you think a white guy should not be allowed to draw like this? Do you think a french comic is not a comic anymore if it looks like this? Do you think non-japanese comics should be restricted to looking only a certain way?

>>149416778
splash panels look cool

God I love this art so much.

>>149411298
I like b&w better desu.

>>149415879
>Why can't other western artists draw like this?
Like what? Like shit? Maybe it has something to do with American comic book fans having some standards. Now, though, we have artists like (modern) Ramos and Dragotta, whose art is almost as atrocious as this.
>>149417921
>God I love this art so much.
You have a very terrible taste, anon. Read some good comics, for fucks sake. Something drawn by Jim Lee, Bryan Hitch, David Finch, John Cassaday, Ivan Reis, Ethan Van Sciver, Gary Frank, Mike Deodato, Francis Manapul, Mark Bagley, Alex Maleev, and other good artists.

>>149418660
I don't enjoy capeshit art, thanks.

>>149418777
Yeah, I get it you hate good art and only enjoy Japanese slop.

>>149418792
*French

>>149419023
Looks like Jap slop = Jap slop
Normal French comics look like this, realistic and cool, and as a rule, they have colors.

>>149419078
>Normal French comics look like this
Not exactly, they have a pretty wide range, the more popular ones lean more into the cartoon side, after all the most popular french comic is Asterix after all which I will claim is the closest successor of the Popeye comics. Just a spectating anon, don mind me.

>>149419078
Wow how have things changed. Back in my day it was utter heresy to imply anything made by a dirty gaijin could be called manga

>>149419152
>americans deciding what is a french comics and what isn't

>>149416882
I'm not riled up, that's just what you want by making the exact same thread over and over despite knowing the answer.

>>149419841
...dude, are you even aware of the french scene

>>149420171
doubling down isn't going to work when everyone already knows what you're doing

>>149418660
>>149419078
>>149418792
American comics are pure garbage slop with garbage paneling. Watchmen is one of the few ones but comic fans are too retarded to appreciate it.

>>149418792
>having a meltdown because people don't enjoy Big 2 capeslop
At least mention good western comics you retard.

>>149410931 (OP)
Dreamland Is getting an animation

>>149420460
Jonah Hex (pre-New 52)
All-Star Western (New 52)
Scalped
Undone by Blood

I don't know why you asked me about westerns. There are so many other American comic genres that are often much better and more entertaining: sci-fi, fantasy, crime, slice of life, etc. But yeah, whatever.

>>149419194
What a ridiculous example. The speech bubbles on this page don't even make sense, how tf are you supposed to understand what's going on there? The reading order or translation are totally fucked up there.

>>149421414
I can read it fine.

>>149421414
Are you used to reading comics from right to left?

>>149421686
You mean from left to right? I'm white and I read from left to right, whether it's a comic or a book. I don't know Arabic or Hebrew.

>>149421344
Are you retarded or joking? Western comics as in comics made in the west that are not capeslop.

>>149421719
Radiant reads from right to left, top to bottom, like manga does. It's a deliberate choice by the author.

>>149421745
Ah, I see, I thought you meant genre rather than geopolitical term.
Well, then it's even easier to name a few.

Sandman
Saga
Y: The Last Man
Prophet
Monstress
Criminal
100 Bullets
Tintin
Fables
From Hell

I'd also mention LoEG, my favorite Moore's thing, but I guess you may consider them capes.

>>149421881
>Radiant reads from right to left
Hmmmm. Maybe it makes sense in France, where 60% of young people speak Arabic or other North African languages as their first language and are accustomed to reading from right to left. But for white Americans, it's definitely a chore.
This is one of the main reasons why manga will never be as good as American and European comic books.

>>149421881
now THAT is dedication

>>149421887
That's way better even though I dropped Saga since it got pretty shit.

>>149421933
>But for white Americans, it's definitely a chore.
Nta but Americans read way more manga than western comics.
>This is one of the main reasons why manga will never be as good as American and European comic books.
A lot of good american/eruopean comic creators love manga so that's bullshit.

>>149421985
>Nta but Americans read way more manga than western comics.
Asian Americans, maybe. White people in America still prefer American comics.
>A lot of good american/eruopean comic creators love manga so that's bullshit.
They have to read it in order to know what they're competing against in the East Asian markets

>>149422023
>White people in America still prefer American comics.
Post proof for that claim.
>They have to read it in order to know what they're competing against in the East Asian markets
I am talking about older guys that used to love manga before it even became popular. That are plenty of fantastic manga that rival the best of western comics.

>>149422068
Anon.. stop taking the bait

>>149421964
Saga is shit.

>>149410931 (OP)
Ah radiant, I really like this comic/manga I just wish it didn't take A FUCKING YEAR TO GET A NEW VOLUME. I can't believe that hack is making two other comic with such a slow release schedule.

>>149421933
France have been translating mangas that way long before arabs and blacks started reading mangas. Publishers originally mirrorred the pages because they though french wouldn't be able to adapt to an inverted reading and wouldn't buy. Adult weebs called bullshit and asked for publishers to stop de-naturing their mangos. They won. Simple as. It's not like it's hard to learn to read both way when you're brain is still young.

Thanks for the story time, OP. Wannabe jannies screeching is icing on the cake.

>>149424070
>Wannabe jannies
Where?

>>149423928
So the plural of manga is anime?

>>149410931 (OP)
Seems more like /a/ to me

>>149426499
It's just a crappy pseudomanga that OP is fawning over. Japan does this better.

While the art is good, even the panel layouts are fine. My problem with the art is the lack of screentones. Everything is either pure black or white with little to no in-between. While it is not difficult to discern what is going on in the page, it would make readability more clearer if it had better shading/visual effects.

>>149410931 (OP)
black and white?
