Bracelet Picard?

Ishmael MarxIshmael Marx ✭✭✭✭✭
What’s up with the gold bracelet on Mirror Picard in the Tank Tops / Right to Bare Arms packs? Are we updating art again? If so... in this case, why? “Gunshow” is already good - leave him be.

    It looks like it is just for the offer art, I will bring it up :)
  • ShanShan ✭✭✭✭✭
    As it turns out, the art in the offer is the correct one.
    I am not sure why this is not reflected in the game but it will be amended in the future.

    That's an interesting art update. Subtle. I'm curious if anyone knows if it has any significance from the comic.

    I was thinking the same. IDW can be very inconsistent. I collect comics and some artists are, shall we say, loose in their hold on detail. I've actually stopped and checked that I was reading the right title or issue before. They have some really good ones, but some look like early additions to the portfolio as a reminder of how far they came.

    I seem to recall G.I. Joe and Micronauts having continuity issues with the artwork. But, that might have involved changes in artists or even publishers. Been a while.

    Also, that guy that created Deadpool CANNOT do feet......

    Mirror Picard must have got that bracelet from Wonder Woman.

    I miss the santa hat.
  • If I remember the episode correctly, it's from Riker as a thanks for always supporting him and is engraved with "To my best bud."
  • Sneaky sneaky, I just noticed my Mirror JLP now has the bracelet!

    That really does kind of bother me. There are hundreds of examples of character art that need more attention than this one.

    Especially after the whole fiasco with them giving us a fifth free copy after we'd cited him, and then making him the monthly special in a campaign soon after that.

    I rarely start a thread, but when I do... I drink Dos Equis. Oops, sorry, got off track. When I do, I keep an eye on it, and I have to say that while the comic info has been informative, I ultimately need to reiterate my original point (to WRG). There was no reason to update the art for Mirror JLP. He was fine. Honestly there’s nothing bad about the update either (to my eyes) so I won’t care about that in the long-term, but this was simply not necessary. Was anyone asking for this? Was anyone calling you out for misrepresenting his depiction? When you have a dud, I get why you’d fix it. This one was a non-issue.

    Rant over. 🖖

    But how will it affect his sex life?

    Well, I think he's right handed, so... not much? B)

    That's the version that should have been in-game all along :)

    I literally came to point out to the ones questioning that there are often legal and such considerations when artwork is used in a game. Such as it having to be the specified, approved artwork!

    It might slow down at first, but once he's used to the extra weight, he'll make it so.

    To be fair, I don't think Liefeld can draw most parts of the body...

    Ahhh, a Rob Liefeld reference. I wonder what the world looks like through his eyes. Do the people he sees have hands or feet?

    He avoids drawing feet. Even he says he "cannot do feet". I mean, he can't do a normal looking torso, so I believe him.......

    So like, we're talking about a 3 year oversight on the incorrect art being added?

    But we are not talking about an Adira situation where the art was completely different here - a gold bracelet on his left wrist is a small enough detail that could easily be missed...
