LEAST FAVORITE ARTWORK!

Ok, we got a thread going on the favorite artwork, so I figured it fitting to start one on the least favorite artwork.

By far my least favorite is Apocalypse, the Fittest. I mean seriously, can we make one of the baddest baddies in the universe look more like a baby? It took me forever to bring myself to even get that card because of the artwork.

What other "not-so-great" artwork for vs is at the top of your lists?

I was never a fan of anything by Phil Noto, but to pick a specific card with the least favorite art, I'd have to say Heat Vision from DSM. Just hideous. You mean to tell me they couldn't have created something else showing Superman shooting his heat vision?

I forgot about that one. It looks like an extremely blurry screen shot from one of the superman cartoons.

My least favorite is the Wolverine 3 drop. Very effective card, but man that art is hideous. Almost threw me off the game if all the art was going to be like that. Thank goodness for the promo that came in the tin.

When I first think of bad art, I think of the "mannish" She Hulk 3 drop from MOR.

Ugh... Hank might have taken this one. I'm having trouble thinking of a card I hate more. She Thing maybe?

Hulk Smash! (Normal art)

For something so nostalgic, they really screwed up on this one. It sucks that it's so expensive and awesome. But, I absolutely love the alternate art version. That's why you all should give me some. [grin]

I have to say Breakworld Prophecy just bites. Especially considering most of the artwork for MEV was good. I just couldn't believe it when I first saw it. Thought someone was playing a trick us.

Anything drawn by Matt Smith except X-Corporation. It's hard to make a plain building look bad.

I hated Hawkeye, Clinton Barton.

I went out of my way to get the amazing magazine promo 4x.

the original looked like it was copy pasted from an 80s cartoon. Awful

I've always hated any Doop card. Maybe it's just because he looks like a booger.
