I don't know what everybody's problem is here.

I suppose you and your friends have never stood in a row with your fists closed taking turns talking while not looking at each other.

Grow up.

This is the type of shit that make people hate Rob. For no reason whatsoever, he decided to shit on Francavilla’s cover of The Shield. Zero professionalism

Maybe he lost the rights to the word "EXTREME" when he lost Youngblood and Supreme? MACHO COMICS coming soon?

He's just upset that you can make out too many fingers in that cover.

Re: Rob Liefeld - Worst comic book artist ever?

I don't get it... What's to keep him from buying Captain Marvel before, and why buy it because Liefeld is doing it since Liefeld sucks?

I’m guessing that moran thinks she looks sexy the way Liefeld drew it.

Can we make fun of the cover drawing? Like, what's all that swelling on Deadpool's leg? And where's his other leg?

The funny thing is that Mark Brooks has been putting out better covers for Captain Marvel than whatever Liefeld has done in the past 40 years.

Re: Rob Liefeld - Worst comic book artist ever?

I asked that guy in the above tweet why he needed to buy that book and he actually responded with, something.


“Because I don’t like or read superhero comics normally and have not since probably 2000 or so but I have been a fan of Rob’s since Hawk and Dove so I have been picking up these covers. No judgement on the book itself, I literally know nothing about it.”

Re: Rob Liefeld - Worst comic book artist ever?

I liked Rob's Hawk and Dove too, but even if I were a hardcore fan I'm not sure I'd buy a book just for a cover artist (unless I had like every cover ever drawn by them or something).

Karl Kesel (Rob's inker on Hawk & Dove) finished like 75% of Rob's incomplete/half-assed work.
So if his early stuff looks good, it's because the inker did the heavy lifting.

Rob’s work is exciting and all but very half assed. The best art of his are the ones where the inkers (Kessel) or collaborators ( McFarlane) put the brunt of the work.
