Thanks. No one's ever complimented me on my posts before

Technically, he had two posts between the two you point out. So he really didn't post the same comment twice in a row. :baiting:

 

Shhhhhh! ;)

Yeah, I probably eliminated at least 3 good pages (worth) of entertaining posts from RF, huh? :( Sorry about that :tonofbricks:

Didn't read the whole thread but the Hawk and Dove mini-series is the only thing I ever saw that looked like he spent more than 15 minutes on each page. Other than that, pure junk IMHO.

 

He wasn't bad at first. His 1st Marvel work;

Really late to this one but my thoughts I guess:

 

I was 9 years old when I read my first New Mutants issue and it happened to be Cables first appearance in New Mutants 87. Something about this mysterious old man just seemed to draw me in. No one knew who he was, his powers, or anything about his metal arm. Favorite line of all time was:

 

“It's metal, doc. I can make another one.” - Cable

"With two paper clips and a screw driver right?" - Doc

 

After that I was hooked and became a huge fan of the New Mutants ending stories as well as a die-hard X-Force fan. The big thing to understand was my age and the fact that I believe he drew things for a specific target audience. This period of time was following the big body builders jumping into the mainstream. The focus of Arnold ensuring children were fit in school, and every character (Rambo, Terminator, Predator) needing some form of larger than life weapon to bring into combat. The outfits seemed to mimic something the Predator would wear and as a child who really cares about feet or body proportions. Boobs were over exaggerated and waist lines seemed to get smaller and smaller and for a kid around 10 - 11 this was all perfect when you throw in characters like the Juggernaut, Warpath, Shatterstar, Cable and Spider-man into the mix.

 

Big thing, he got kids interested in comics and for me that was the best part of his art. Older collectors will always have there favorite artists and for me I don't get them but again don't need to. I enjoy what I enjoy and am trying to get him to sign each of my books he worked on with my X-Force set as well as his New Mutants set.

When I was a kid, I remember quite clearly picking up this issue of What If

What's hilarious about this cover, is that if there were any question as to whether Wolverine's head coming out of his left shoulder was an illusion of perspective, Liefeld actually draws the neck hole of his shirt off center from his chest, making it look deliberate.

 

While the extra buckles and arm bandolier are typical Liefeld, I'm impressed that Wolverine's bicep isn't twice the size of his head, and that his barely larger than his forearm. This must be one of those "better" pieces I keep reading about.

 

I, too, was impressed by this when I first saw it. So much so, I bought multiple copies (all of which I still have.)

 

But....I was 17, and unschooled in the ways of illustration.

 

;)

 

 

Right, exactly. As I said, I was a kid (12 years old) so I didn't have much to compare it to, I just thought it looked "cool". And that was all that mattered when I was a kid. Of course, at that age I still thought Kirby's stuff looked weird. It wasn't until I was around 19 and got a job at a comic shop that I got into Kirby, Steranko, Toth, etc, and suddenly Liefeld and his ilk looked like garbage. It was like a switch flipped in my brain.

 

But knowing what I know now doesn't change the fact that when I was an adolescent, I thought that book looked cool, and I probably still have that copy floating around somewhere due to the nostalgia.

Page 1, panel 1: (Boom Boom is sitting on the counter, despite being told numerous times by Cable that they prepare food there. Yuck! Rictor is practicing his fierce Ninja Warrior poses in front of Bart Simpson poster)

 

Boom-Boom: "This counter is a little sticky, has someone been sitting on it...?"

 

Rictor: "Be quiet, you're breaking my concentration!"

 

Boom-Boom: "I need a sandwich."

 

Rictor: "Shut UP, I said!"

 

Panel 2: (Rictor has an epileptic seizure)

 

Rictor: "I'm....having...a....sei...zure....."

 

Panel 3: (Closeup of BB's face)

 

BB "Um, ew. Gross. Don't shart yourself."

 

Panel 4: (wide shot of Rictor and BB)

 

Rictor: "Don't...just...stand...there...give...me....some...help"

 

Panel 5: (BB grabs a pitcher on the counter)

 

BB: "Here, maybe if I throw this water all over you, that will help."

:applause: This just made my morning. :D Still catching up. :P
