No more pouches?

We're not going to have Rob Liefeld to kick around anymore.

The comics world mourns the loss of baroque anatomy, porn traces, floating or otherwise invisible feet, and seriously, what was in all those pouches?

I can't help but imagine various DC heroines untwisting their spines and sighing in relief as their internal organs re-settle into their proper places and their tiny little feet are finally able to touch the ground.

Also, who tweets during a movie? That's just rude.

Is she going "nooooo" because her spine has snapped, or has she been sucked into a zone of non-Euclidean anatomy?

Alas, it seems Rob will continue be published somewhere because he can fart momey - some movie studio actually optioned Bloodstrike. Doesn't matter if it gets made, someone paid for it. If anything proves that the comics industry is a boys club which is impervious to taste and quality, it's Liefeld.

Oh but his influence will live on.

Did you ever read the Bloom County storyline when Berke Breathed ended it the first time and had all the characters trying to find new jobs. Steve Dallas went for the comic book world because all the women look like "Dolly Parton in zero gravity" (man, Dolly Parton has large breast jokes - I almost miss them)

I dont know how familiar you are with George Perez, but hes pretty much the opposite of Liefield.

His art is amazing, and totally technically correct, and hes a complete professional with no rock star attitude. And very few people have contributed as much to DC as him. Hes been there like 25 years.

If HE just gets up and quits, that means DC has become FUCKED UP.

When I first read this post, I thought you meant he had died.
