Even back then i couldn't understand why people liked this art but it did bring in some of my college friends to start buying comics. I tried showing them Byrne, Smith, JRjr, and others, but somehow Liefeld is what drew them in.

cuz it was BAD ASS! when you were a kid at the time right before this marvel was sterile af. it wasnt just comics, pop culture in the early 90s was just bombastically edgy, ECW was the hot wrestling shit, death metal was the hot new metal music, gangsta rap, jerry springer, etc. as a child full of angst and hormones, this stuff was just where it was at. i love all those guys you mentioned (except jrjr) but thats stuff a you had to learn to appreciate. you said college so youre probably a bit older and had already started maturing out of your angsty teenage phase, but as a 8th grader...this was it. All those image guys are a cultural thing. you gotta be the right people hitting the right demo with the right product at the right time. If youre rob liefeld for instance you serve up something cvompletely and people are like holy shit we didnt know we needed this but we are ALL FKN IN and thats why people are still talking about it almost 40 years later

Did they ever do anything proactive? I seem to remember shit always happening to them but never them taking the initiative...

I remember Erik Larsen telling me that at early Image meetings, Rob would pass pages around and some of them would ink them for him. Not sure when this would have been exactly, but it might account for some of the differences in line weight and such.

Oh man - you guys HAVE to check out the 30th anniversary of X-force #1 podcast that Rob put out a few months ago. He talks about a ton of shenanigans he had to pull off to get this issue and x-force 1 out from Marvel. Loved this time period and his podcast on the behind the scenes was engrossing.

Sorry guys, but when it comes to LIEfeld as an artist I have to give it a hard NO! Hes been caught stealing panel art, never hitting deadlines without help, and ripping off popular characters to make his own. And that's not even the TIP of the burg. His art is nowhere NEAR anatomically correct, he cant draw filler/dialogue frames, he cant get perspective right, and after 30+ years in the business he STILL cant draw human anatomy properly like feet, hands, muscle vasculature, ect. Just look at how he hides the arias he cant draw with pouches and poorly composed costume wrinkles. And NOW a days hes sitting on his computer blocking anyone who has something to say to him good OR bad. Hell, you should have taken a hint when they kicked him out of i.age for his diva attitude, arguments with the REAL talent at image, and blown deadlines that it took him a year and a half to finally put out ONE issue of Youngblood. You give this manchild WAAAY too much credit who does every real artist a disservice by claiming to be one himself. Wanna kick your channel up to the next level, stop talking about this hack...
