Rob Liefeld is one of the worst comics artists ever. He doesn’t distort anatomy. He draws like he’s never even heard of the concept of anatomy. And his layouts are even worse.
The guy should be sealed in a barrel of kimchee and shot into the sun.

I prefer the Milligan Allred version of X-force.. now known as X-Statix… HILARIOUS read!!! I’ve meet Liefield (who claims to know a bit of kungfu by-the-way) unimpressed.
Grant Morrison’s New X-Men was rocking and is available in an assortment of trade paperback or hardcovers.
Also you should check out his book THE FILTH.
Just picked up AGE OF BRONZE with is a very thorough adaptation of the trojan war.
Other interesting reads include PLANETARY, and of course anything by JOE SACCO.
Isn’t Alan Moore the creator of those ‘Americas greatest comics’ or something like that? Those look great.. I’ll do a search on him later
I’ll have to agree with some of u about Liefeld. I was never a fan either. I remember wondering why everyone was so psyched about him doing X-men way back before.
I’ve desided to not pick up any monthly’s, I’ll just stick to getting the trade paperbacks/ hardcover / collected volumes..
I tend to enjoy reading a whole storyline rather than short short comics.
Alan Moore created and maintains the ABC line, yes ![]()
what blew my mind was jim lee doing batman.
i suppose that move was done to draw the attention of people like me who are prejudiced against the d.c. line
oddly enough my first comic ever was batman, i remember the day i bought it , just cause. i was maybe 5 or 6… ok my mom bought it …but i asked her to…
it changed my life
one of those pivotal moments…
thank you batman, i guess i’ll always have a soft spot for you.
then i realized what marvel was.
Jim Lee’s art on Batman was some of his greatest stuff to date. And it really did the entire lot of characters, heroes and villains, justice.
But the fukking end was just so fugging anticlimactic.
I have to admit though, the sparring session with Batman and Robin II/Clayface is one of my favorite scenes in comics.
Just finished up reading the New X-Men. Went really well, I though. Don’t think I’ll be picking up the title anymore, though. It feels like a decent place to stop worrying about it.
I wanna finish my Preacher collection (if a Christian tells you this kinda thing is good, believe it), the rest of the Teknophage’s tie-in books, and I’m just gonna stick to the TPBs after that.
hmm first comic…
I learned how to read by reading Bamse and Gnutten
I was brought up on Donald Duck, but the first hero book I read was probably a Batman too. First Marvel was The Hulk, then Spiderman.
My first comic was a Batman or Superman. Can’t remember.
I know I taught myself how to read from Hulk.
I learned english by readin the american Spider-Man ![]()
b4 I was taught in school
I wish kids in america would learn some English.
Hey, MK, for reelz, let me know what you’ve got in those Conan mags. I’m definetely interested.

I’ll pull them out this weekend and take a couple of pics. 80 might have been an over-estimation, but I have a lot of them. They came out once a month, if I remember correctly, and I bought them for a few years straight, only missing one issue somewhere in there.
Sounds good.
My first comic was so long ago I have no idea. Probably Richie Rich or Archie or something.
I’m not counting Peanuts, of course, because that goes right to the veryiest beginningest and anyway newspapers are totally diffferent.
yea strips don’t count ![]()
..altough Dilbert is pretty good
Adam is a good comic [evil laugh]
this is a great site

comics one!
i love this company!
don’t get me wrong i still want my marvel!(and batman)
but know one in the industry can touch the art i see in these books specifically the one drawn by a man named: Andy Seto. his art is some what untouchable, the stuff he did with crouching tiger and story of the tao is amazing. then theres the grand daddy of all kung fu comic book writers/artist tony wong, his four constables is one of the best books i’ve ever read if you haven’t read anything from comics one trust me you should!!!
I liked this one better than deadend
