Dale is the most inspiring.

 

Mr. Bedrock is the most dashing.

 

Harley is the most regal.

 

Those three characteristics are the triforce of comic dealing attributes.

ROB LIEFELD IS AWESOMEly bad at drawing comics

[comicwiz]

He could have had a go drawing Leprechauns. The only lifeform able to properly walk upright with his anatomically impossible feet.

 

Maybe Smurfs too. Cut toe shoes could have been his trademark.

 

Instead:

For the record, I respect Rob Liefeld - I dislike is style and I don't think he's a good artist, but he's been able to make a living for himself since the 90's - I've got zero problems with that.

A good living at that.

 

Rob has a strange mix of qualities. For all his technical shortcomings, his work is very dynamic, and he does distinguish foreground from background well, a skill many artists seem to lack. (although that may be more the lack of backgrounds Rob draws )

An oldie but goodie

But i still kinda like his art. I like his clean and detailed pencils. If he had taken some classes on drawing feet and human anatomy he would have been so much better.

He drew the distorted fan-boy power fantasy that we all had as nine year olds. We grew up. His art style didn't. Successful dude, but no Neal Adams.

I liked his art at the time as it looked like something new, but I think my opinions have changed now and I think it is flawed on far too many levels.

It never loses it's punch to the gut feeling.

DC love him.

If they need to cancel a popular title, they just give him the art chores

 

If they need to end it within 2 issues they let him write it too

[Doohickamabob]

Rob Liefeld is groovy, but Rob Granito is groovier!

[Dark Knight]

Ugh I'm still kicking myself for not being able to get an autograph for him and a free deadpool head sketch when he made a special appearance at a local comic book shop in southern CA. I found out about it when I went to the store and missed it by about 2 weeks...

Liefeld's characters just eat more spinach.

classic

 

that's just so

[Mr.Illmannered]

I applaud him for being able to make a great living...I am saddened however that true artists like Michael Golden or Bernie Wrightson are not as well compensated.

 

It's the same in music...real musicians who influence millions scrape by while junk pop rakes in millions.

Who gave Liefeld his big break anyway?

[monsterbento]

This article is always fun to read.

 

I read an issue with his art recently. Could not finish the issue.
