I was going by memory. But more importantly, it's not "art" in my book anyway. Or at least it's rare when it is. It's illustration. At best it's fine craft. There's a staggering amount of difference between comic book illustration and fine art. But yeah, I know what you meant, at least I guess I do. Comic books, tattoos, what have you...there's just very little difference between it and something like Thomas Kinkade...really. Good graphic design and commercial art, "good" concert posters and good photographs and the like are usually made by someone with a fine art background and can be said to be somewhat artistic, I suppose. Same goes for the greats like, I don't know, Jack Kirby or something. The craft is so fine it deserves real respect as art in that case. Anyway, just an axe I'm grinding.
