I can understand what you mean , art is subjective and people like different things about it . I recently came across this video and now have some mixed feelings about Howard Chaykin , he has some good points about some things but to me they get a bit drowned out by the attitude he has toward Star Wars fans . I understand he is miffed about royalties he missed out on , but if I ever become an established creator , I hope I will never be like this guy is to his fans…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-cvoqg9wzg

I’ll check that video out later when I have some time. As for his attitude, as I’ve seen in other videos, all I can say is that people respond very differently to fans. It’s probably weird to him to have so many people ask him about this one series he did forty years ago while the rest of his work gets less attention.

However, do you know if there’s any videos like that with Walt Simonson or Chris Claremont? Like I mentioned earlier I’m very curious about SW #53-54 with the recycled John Carter art (and those weird giant stormtroopers).
