^^nice.I will be actively looking for one in the near future for my man cave.

 

Anything of significant value goes in a toploader or is in a cgc slab. My spinner holds slabs.

 

 

 

 

a spinner rack that holds slabs sounds like a really awesome idea!kudos!

^^awesome stuff guys thanks for the responses and yes bagging and boarding seems like a better obvious way to protect books on comic spinner racks.

such an awesome thread.I always remember going to the supermarket as a kid and getting comics off a spinner rack!wonder how much they go for now i'd love to have one.awesome dell racks too.but I do have a question:Do Spinner Racks bend or lower the grade of a comic over time being displayed in one?

@Kav agreed friend.

Underrated: Sunspot, Pete Wisdom, Agent Venom, Scarlet Spider, Wally West, Kyle Rayner, Spider-Man 2099, Richard Rider, Hank Pym, Gambit (for now...)

I thought he was spot on and it looks like an awesome show,ain fact it looked like a movie and I'm huge Hellblazer fan so I can't wait for this!!

I bought a raw YB 1 in 9.8 in the dollar bin

 

 

You paid one dollar too much.

When will this madness of Liefeld end??

 

I wonder if you started this thread because you knew what the outcome was going to be.

hehe hmm I wonder ?in all reality I didn't think this would happen at all and imo this argument about liefeld is giving me a headache just to read now !and to make one thing I liked Liefelds work at one point and even tryed to mimic his art when I was a kid in some ways i think my art was forever effected by this,the anatomy was off !should have went to Joe Kuberts art school !sheesh!also Mcfarlane was and still is awesome IMO (thumbs u

When will this madness of Liefeld end??

what ASM Issue was that from?One thing I can say is that Mcfarlane's art got better as time went on IMO,and he still draws the covers for Spawn every month.

so how about that Art Adams?huh?

You do make a point here with McCay, and even Mobius to an extent - but they are masters at using the same line quality but within different spacing to suggest depth and distance. I would not consider Liefeld's work to be in the same school of inking, and while he does get some sweeping lines in his work, his short strokes is what makes his style 'his'.

 

His work is "chicken scratchy" like McFarlane's work - much of the fluidity that you talk about with inking is lost in that style, because you cut short the motion to make long, flowing lines. I won't place the entire blame of this style on Liefeld, but it's very prevalent in 90's artists. It was part of that hyper-detailed style that took off during that era. The only person who I think mastered this technique that comes to mind is Art Adams.

 

 

 

 

Art Adams has done some amazing work.

 

But I don't hear many people whining about his long legs and questionable anatomy:)

 

 

And he sure does a lot of clenched fists, eh?

 

You should start a thread about Art Adams then. This one is about Rob Liefeld.

 

 

 

 

-slym

I would view the hell out of a Art Adams thread!

Art Adams is so frickin awesome wish he was doing more work besides covers here and there these days.

Rabid, Can you draw me a Black Cat wearing like 50 pouches but nothing else. Oh, and don't show her feet please. Thanks!

yes this is a great way to find out if Rabid is indeed liefeld or not!

I am starting to think that perhaps Rabid Ferret IS Rob Liefeld!

I'm thinking he's sitting on a load of Liefeld OA

 

I've posted 2 different pages I own, so yeah, I quite enjoy his OA.

 

If anyone's selling I'm certainly buying:)

 

Based on this thread, it sounds like anyone stuck with any would love to unload it. Just send me a PM:)

I called it!Its Leifeld man! RF is Liefeld!!

I love how the lamps have become part of this thread lofl!

I think Rob liefeld and humberto ramos should do a book together written by Frank miller in his crazy stage supervised by Current alan Moore such win would happen

Back to the original point of the thread, I have to say that this is the winner for me. I've got nothing against this cover.

 

 

 

what is up with Rustys pants in this pic how are they even staying on haha

 

Immediately my mind went to: Here we have this silly American Comic Book industry, dominated by Superheroes for the last 60 years, regurgitating the same old stories, having to turn to someone like Liefeld, who can't draw,

because he's one of the few people enthusiastically interested in telling these same old stories that his aging fan base may pick up out of some perverted nostalgia.

 

Sad.

 

Just because Jim Lee can draw a comic and make it sell based upon his name alone, doesn't mean he can run a Comic Book Company. Todd McFarlane's Image (and let's face it, he's the only one who really stuck it out) only succeeded because of toys and then a new regime that brought in the Walking Dead and a better way to do comics.

 

Is it any wonder the stagnation of this hobby?

 

 

 

and I'll never look at comics the same way again..
