That dude is better at being Liefeld than Liefeld. The background is all wrong though. It's actually a background. lol

Yeah, and from the very first picture he already had too good anatomy.

If you compare Liefeld's recent work to his stuff from 20 years ago, the only noticeable difference is that the coloring techniques are more advanced. His pencilling skills haven't advanced at all since 1991. He still relies on the same cheats and shortcuts, he still doesn't know how human hands hold things, and he certainly never figured out how to properly frame an image for a cover or give a page layout a logical narrative flow.
Anyone engaged in the same profession for that many years will eventually show some amount of progression in their skills, some way to track the evolution of their craft, but not Rob. His awfulness is almost beautiful, like a perfectly coiled turd.

This from last year. There is so much wrong with this picture, and so much typically horrible Liefeld. When he released this and the other 2 covers he did he was quoted as saying “The hipsters don’t know what to do when I draw feet. It confuses them.” That sums up his total ignorance and arrogance and oblivious view of his place in comics. What a fucking retard he is. It's a shame people continually pay him for this shit. His lips must be raw all the time from giving blowjobs to convince them to let him drawl his little pitchers. Hipsters don't even read comics. They all walk around with a copy of 'Catcher in the Rye' tucked in their back pocket, ironically, of course.

I've been called a hipster, and I read comics.
And seeing that... thing at the end of Lobo's shin isn't so much confusing as it is mystifying. Basic knowledge of human anatomy tells me it's most likely meant to be a foot, but why does it look like that? It doesn't appear to be making contact with either the ground or Deathstroke's shoulder, so why is it in that weird shape? Is it sinking into the ground? Why isn't casting a shadow? But enough about that "foot". Where is Lobo's other foot? Why are Deathstroke's legs two different lengths (check it out, his right knee and left ankle are parallel with each other, and both appear to be 14 feet away from his head). And speaking of heads, how come every time Liefeld draws a character wearing a mask their head shrinks into the shape of a peanut M&M? Why does Lobo have all that blood on his fists when Deathstroke only has a tiny little bit on his tiny little head? Where did the rest of it go?
No, what's confusing is that Rob Liefeld, Professional Comic Book Artist, drew that picture, looked it over, and saw nothing wrong with it. It had two characters and at least one alleged foot, so off to the DC offices it went.

Yup, all of that and more was why I picked that image, every single thing about it is WRONG. Also, rocks exist in groups, no rock can be alone.
How has he never learned to make faces look different? Everyone has a sphincter face full of lines that lead to an asshole mouth of 700 cringing teeth. And Lobo has the same face and hair as every other character LOLfeld draws going back to the beginning of his undeserving career.
And, yeah, his masked faces are incredible. He must believe everyone who wears a mask does so because their head is a featureless, perfectly smooth oval and they want to hide it. No mouth, no nose, no ears, no eyes, just a grape for a skull.

No mouth, no nose, no ears, no eyes, just a grape for a skull. I was thinking the heads look more almond-like.

I know I've seen the first, probably the second as well, but it's always fun to bag on this piece of shit and be reminded how undeserving he is. Yup, now I remember the second. Fucking Warchild...

Is it just me, or did this guy forget to mention the worst Liefeld art ever: that horrific Captain America art that makes Cap look like a dough boy. Horrible. Ugh.

What the HELL happened to Lobo's foot?? Did his toes get kicked in? LOL at Deathstroke's freakshow stilt legs.
Just when I'm starting to feel almost guilty for making fun of him so much, I read something like the above quote from him and I feel justified. I think the guy Is totally arrogant and probably refuses to work on improving just to rub his success in everyone's face - which Is pretty insulting to all tge aspiring artists who actually put in hours of work studying anatomy and perspective and page layout, but don't land jobs.

He deserves every horrible thing said about him. Just that one picture alone, you can't look at one thing on it and say that it was done right. Lobo's chest doesn't exist, he folds like a sheet of paper at the waist. His legs are different lengths. No matter how you look at it, every line he drew there is wrong and nothing works out correctly. He has no sense of proportion, no comprehension of perspective and depth, no ability to properly convey how objects with mass take up space or interact. He can't conceive of things in 3 dimensions.
And still, 25 years later, alive or dead, awake or passed out, if a character is not screaming with an EXTREME screamy face or pouting with a tiny frowny mouth and hooded brow, they are cringing so hard and squinting...all with exact same goddamn face.

There are so many times when I can't tell something is wrong with a Liefeld drawing until I see someone point it out.
But, yeah...fuck that guy.

It's usually more challenging to find what's right about a Liefeld scribble. Fuckin' putz.

Y'know, that Cap picture wouldn't be so bad if you shaved off some of his back and a whole lot of his front.
I love how he made the bizarre decision to stretch his left pec out and around the right one so we could see them both from this angle. And it looks like the effort made it melt and now it's sliding off his body. I would love to see how that figure would look from other angles, especially the front. Marvel should make a statue of it.

Two worthless D-bags for the price of one... Haha, that's great. Sigh, the nineties - when comics were getting the recognition they deserve today. I'm impressed the host knows his comics shit. He even schools Liefeld on it. I love how he keeps roughhousing the comic. It's so funny to see them talk about all that stuff with what we now know today.

You know when you're playing a game and you start moving your arms with the controller in your hands because the car or angle isn't going the direction you want it to? I'm doing that with my head because Rob done fucked up another one.
