[Comics] Recommend me some Batman

Why is Batman's only leg coming out of his ribs instead of his hip?[DOUBLEPOST=1400706950,1400706827][/DOUBLEPOST]You would think that the large comics houses could afford two models on full time payroll...

At least some of those posing dolls from Ikea.

Yeah, and on top of that, the same character looks different every single time s/he's drawn. You have to rely on context to keep track of who's who. E.g. Tanya from the vampire trilogy. Or even the prostitute on the opening page. I also like to play Guess Which Face Was Photoreffed.

Here's some more fun Jones anatomy. Don't think I'm hating on this guy. He's lucky to have this job, which I'll never have. But regardless, I can't agree this is all stylizing:

Balls for knees:

Good thing he found that extra arm on the ground... Makes a handy club...

Or maybe he just bears down really hard and grows them out of his hips. Those are some impressively long upper arms.

BATMAN has TINY HANDS. Tiny JAZZ hands.

Joker also has extra long upper arms, and the left one has a few extra joints.

Oh come on.

Ok, terrible, terrible anatomy aside... those all look really cool. I dig it.
 
I don't mind the lack of anatomical correctness here because it's a unique, twisted art style that suits the story. Rob Liefeld, on the other hand, is just a terrible artist.
