best idea ever
The sad thing is that many people aren’t able to recognize the glaring faults of Rob’s art due to plain ignorance. They would realize once someone else points them out. And that is why he continues to get work.
There’s another thing that’s sad.
He just “designed” them, he didn’t give them personality. It was the writers that really made the characters. Scott Lobdell and Fabian Nicieza don’t get enough credits. Just look at any Liefeld drawing of Deadpool and you’ll see that it shows none of his personality (even with the mask off, Rob can only draw clenched-teeth Jack Palance look anyway)
that is why fabian is one of the best writers ever. he took dp and gave him personality, while liefeld gave him pouches
Deadpool >>>>> Deathstroke. Act Like You Fucking Know.
…and damaged knives.

I’m not a snob like most of the posters in this thread so I’ll admit that I liked his artwork in New Mutants and X-Force. I thought it was cool and so did a lot of other people back then. It’s when the Youngblood characters looked almost exactly the same is when he ran into problems.He shouldn’t write though. His Captain America and Avengers comics in Heroes Reborn were probably the nail in the coffin. Both of those were terrible.
Wow this is some really bad art. A good article though, it had me lolling at times. There’s no reason this guy should be getting paid for being that lazy, it’s people like him that give people like me the impression that they can coast through life without any responsibilities/repercussions.
lol, just got the time to fully check that site at the front page-

^I don’t need to read the comment to know what’s wrong here. BTW this is Shatterstar right?

^To me she looks like she’s standing from that thing in the background
Sorta how I feel. comics are an escape from reality, so I’m not huing up on it being z0mg accurate. do I love great art? Yes…I can look at Liam sharp drawings all day, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy those old X-Force comics and wanted to get Youngbloods.

Does Rob Liefeld even apply anymore? I’m surprised some people are still being exposed to him.
that’s cause he is still being hired to draw comics
That should’ve been No.1
new liefeld art. you can tell he drew it by the sticks he put in cable’s backpack thing, and of course the feet

Cable’s arm is an organic mass taken from the Phalanx and adapting to what his arm should be like.
SO WHY THE HELL DOES EVERYONE DRAW IT LIKE THEY TOOK A GIANT ACTION FIGURE AND JUST STUCK IT ON THERE?!?!?!?!?
How is it even possible for him to reach the trigger?
Did any of you read Rags Morales dissing Liefeld on Newsarama back in '07? Rags said, “And as far as being me? I’m sure you’d lop off your right hand at the wrist to be me. If you knew what a wrist looks like.”
Source, the entire thread is full of win. When comic book artists attack!
When I first saw that I thought that the baby was seated at the BACK part of his gun XD, plus Cable looks like he’s taking a hard shit:looney:
Ah, good to see the Liefeld hate is still festering in here. That puts a smile on my face.
Sano: that thread looks awesome. I bookmarked it and plan to read it most of day tomorrow.
What are you talking about? Cable does not have anything from the Phalanx. It’s a techno-organic virus but not Phalanx.
