The image is titled &#8220;Big City, Little Spider&#8221; and credited to concept artist Scott McInnes. <!-- -->At a glance it is an ordinary New York street, all yellow cabs and walk-up buildings. Zoom in and it falls apart. Two taxis heading in opposite directions fuse into each other mid-frame.<!-- --> A fire escape on the left twists into stairs that go nowhere.

The complaint is specific rather than abstract. A film clearing $2 billion apparently could not pay a human to draw a taxi correctly. Readers who went through the rest of the book say the other pages look clean, which suggests one image slipped past quality control rather than a pattern running through the collection.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2><b>Marvel&#8217;s AI problem did not start with this artbook<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>McInnes has a serious blockbuster r\u00e9sum\u00e9, including Morbius, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Guardians of the Galaxy, Andor, Barbie and Wonka. <!-- -->That history is part of why the reaction has been so sharp.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>The timing helps nobody. Marvel cut a large chunk of its visual development team months ago, the people who build a film&#8217;s look before cameras roll. Fans drew their own conclusions then. Secret Invasion&#8217;s AI-assisted title sequence from 2023 still gets brought up. DC recently pulled a Supergirl behind-the-scenes video after viewers spotted AI concept art of Jason Momoa&#8217;s Lobo.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>Marvel has not commented.
