revi Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 OMFG!!! Liefield is still alive?!? Somebody please k*ll him now. Pero ok lang. Onslaught is a stupid character and Liefield is a terrible artist - so in a way bagay sila... About JLU... season 5 is reportedly the series finale... i hope not.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yup.. Yung puros ipin ang nakikita mo kapag ngumiti ang character.. Sucks big time!!! Never liked Liefield.. But Jeph Loeb does provide me some curiosity to buy the comic if he is the one writing it.. :thumbsupsmiley: --- I am more after a good storyline rather than the art.. Like paupawie said, Batman/Superman #26 was good.. Gives you shivers (as I have said in my previous post).. Quote Link to comment

After the stupendously stupid Heroes Reborn and X-force relaunch (not to mention the entire Captain America-Fighting American-Agent America brouhaha), they should have blacklisted him forever. It's interesting to note that the only good thing Rob Liefeld did for his comics was in hiring Alan Moore to totally revamp Supreme (Superman rip-off) and the Youngblood universe. Sad to say, he ran out of money just a few issues after Alan Moore relaunched Yongblood and right before Supreme was coming to its conclusion. Oh, I forgot, most of the artwork on Supreme isn't done by Leifeld. I think its Chris Sprouse...anyway (correct me if i'm wrong), when Liefeld did contribute a few pages here and few covers there, you could clearly see that Liefeld's work was extremely amateurish compared to Sprouse. It was like looking at a teenager's rushed 5-minute work! hahaha! Quote Link to comment

Considering that he's being mentioned in the same line as lee and mcfarlane means that back then their art was considered awesome... (hell, I thought it was amazing back then) unfortunately I guess, mcfarlane's and lee's art evolved... liefeld's didn't... Quote Link to comment
artvader Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Noi. it means the other 2's artwork were great. Good enough, in fact that liefield got a free ride with their popularity. Of course, thing doesn't last. As for Jim Lee... he's only good if he had ample time to rest up. His Hush artwork is good. His Superman run wasn't. halatang rushed... and the shocking thing for me was that scott williams was his inker in superman, and they're supposed to be the dynamic duo. Anybody remember Jim Lee's Punisher War Journal run? I think that was his best work... Quote Link to comment

revi Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 WARNING: shocking Civil War major spoiler <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All I can say is OMFG.. Spiderman unmasking himself for the whole world to see.. This is a major event for the Spiderster.. I wonder what storylines would Marvel come up with in Amazing, etc. after the Civil War.. This is a great turning point.. I am assuming that his Aunt May and Mary Jane's safety might be in jeopardy.. Dito siguro mag-re-revolve ang mga storylines ni Spidey.. Just a hunch.. Quote Link to comment

(hell, I thought it was amazing back then) unfortunately I guess, mcfarlane's and lee's art evolved... liefeld's didn't...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually, Jim Lee's style hasn't evolved one bit. Mas madumi nga siya mag inks ngayon, for some reason. It's really sad to see that some artists who used to emulate Jim Lee have actually surpassed him by leaps and bounds (compare Travis Charest's work on the early Wildcats to his jaw-dropping art on Wildcats/X-men). Todd Mcfarlane stopped drawing a long time ago. Probably spent too much time on his court case vs Neil Gaiman (which he lost, btw)! Didn't one of his companies declare bankruptcy awhile back? And Rob Liefeld....well, let's just say that not only does his art suck (was never a fan), but his professional reputation is very shady. The largest distributor of comics worldwide (Diamond) refuses to carry any of his titles! A few years ago, he tried to relaunch youngblood with Mark Millar (of Ultimates fame)as the writer. Diamond refused to even deal with him, so the only way to get it was to order online or at conventions. The relaunch lasted only ONE ISSUE---but in that issue he had about 6 variant covers. Of all the Image pioneers, Jim Lee was the wisest to sell his Wildstorm line to DC. Erik Larsen probably has the biggest b*lls because he still continues to publish, plot, and draw Savage Dragon. He also totally revamped the history so that none of the campy early 90's stuff ever happened. Quote Link to comment
artvader Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I love this Liefeld bashing threads... hehehe. I dunno what kind of delusions this guy have anyways. All characters he made in Image were pure crap. Believe it or not, he's the only artist I know whose artwork actually devolved. If you happen to see his artwork in Hawk & Dove and his present artwork... you'd swear it wasn't the same artist... case in point: and this is now: as for spidey and civil war. wow. i never expected that. i thought he'd have sided with captain america since he's got a lot to lose if his secret identity is revealed...

badongskie Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 hmmm...never heard of liefeld...di ko type style niya...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> he, together with louise simonson, created cable . i'm not very fond of his art either :thumbsdownsmiley: . OT: anyone interested in buying cable's first appearance(new mutants #87) :hypocritesmiley: ? Quote Link to comment
eibmor Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Well ok naman ang impression ko sa first appearance ni cable.pero overall --- di ko gusto ang artwork ni Liefield.. Hindi proportional yung mga drawing niya (though medyo maganda ang drawing niya kay spiderman at juggernaut during the x-force / spiderman cross-over). Pangit din yung original artwork niya sa image. Kasi pangit ng propaganda nila batman and superman dati.. Quote Link to comment
