![]() The superstar artist bashes DC and praises Marvel in his 2012 year in review. Rob Liefeld is like the tides. He ebbs and he flows, and nothing short of destroying the moon can stop him. Yesss... Destroy the moon... Wait, what we mean to say is that the estimable Mr. Liefeld has a certain pattern he's exhibited in recent years. He works for one of the big two comics companies, often writing or drawing several books, during which time he talks about how awesome the one he's working for is doing while the competition is stinking up the shelves. Then he exits the company in a glorious display of internet chicanery, goes into hiding and relaunches Youngblood for the 57th time, and then, after a year or so, goes to work for the other big two company and repeats the cycle all over again. It looks like we can count on ol' Rob to start doing some work for Marvel again soon, because he recently posted a review of the year 2012 on his website and this is what he had to say about the two companies:
Fair enough. A lot of people have complained about the Nu52, though DC sales are still up above pre-reboot levels overall. Here's what Liefeld had to say about Marvel:
Wait a minute. No backlash whatsoever?! What about the ruination of Cyclops in the abysmal Avengers vs. X-Men event? What about the new, rapey Doctor Spiderpuss? We get that Rob may be a little bit biased here, but "no backlash whatsoever" may be taking things a bit too far. In any case, Rob does make a great point about the depth of creative talent at the two companies, pointing out that DC's talent consists mainly of Scott Snyder while Marvel's runs much deeper with Bendis, Aaron, Hickman, Remender, Waid, and others. Check out the full post here, and stay tuned to The Outhouse for the announcement of Rob's new X-Force book which will, ironically, probably set back Marvel's continuity to approximately 1996.

He's still working for DC off the books. He's been dispatched to take down Marvel from the inside. |

That is certainly the impression that I got from reading this. ![]() ![]() I do love the fact that it apparently never crosses his mind that the "bottom falling out" might have more to do with the fact that the books simply weren't that good. |

Actually he's a triple agent sent by both Marvel and DC to destroy each other. |
||
|
||
|

He's a quadruple agent: he never actually left Image at all. He's made every other company look stupid, and Image alone stands immune to his Jeans-Commercial-based charms? No, they're working together, certainly. I should have known. Why should I have believed Todd when he said he hated Rob? Why would that be the ONE thing Todd says that's true? Damn you, McFarlane!!! |

And it doesn't bode well for Vertigo! |

Took the words right out of my mouth. |

It could be worst. Rob could announce that he's Karen Berger's replacement for the imprint. |
