His style works for certain characters. It doesn't suit conventional capes, but put him on a book with Cable or Bishop, and he was great. Yeah, his anatomy is fricked, but it you forget about that pretty fast when you're actually reading the comic. >Fear the wrath of OVERFORCE.
This, if Liefeld had a bit self-awareness and the right people behind him to contextualize his creations his stuff would be absolute 90s edgekino
Thus proclaims Painseige
Crowstrike.
I can't even wrap my head around that one. A birdman dressed like an early nineties Image character? That sounds more like Savage Dragon than Youngblood.
Besides the man himself, his art is absolute 90s kino. You can't understand what it was like seeing his comics back in the day. Shit just LEAPED off the page, it was so exciting and made you feel frickin pumped.
I read all 11 issues of Youngblood and it feels like every single issue ends on a cliffhanger and the next issue starts a completely new plot without even acknowledging what happened last issue. What a clusterfrick
>Does Rob Liefeld deserve his reputation?
Yes. Most of his failures were lost to time, but boy did he throw a lot of shit at the wall to see what stuck.
Dumb characters, bizarre designs, the same things over and over and over. But he succeeded enough that we remember him (and he's a millionaire).
He is a millionaire but at most he is only the fourth most successful Image founder financially (after McFarlane, Lee, and Silvestri) and is the only one of the six founders who lost control of his most famous Image creations in bad business deals. (of course this doesn't count Portacio who did sell his interest in his creation Wetworks to Jim Lee but he doesn't seem particularly attached those characters considering he let Scott Williams keep all the original art for the first issue in exchange for all the Iron Man v2 #1 art)

Yes, Rob Liefeld deserves his reputation.
>Blood runs cold whether Iceshard is around!
I mean Christ you can already imagine the blue costume with a leather jacket and a million knives strapped everywhere. Which I suppose is the magic of Liefeld.
I never much cared for his art even when it was popular . He’s probably a nice enough fellow though
he got worse over time
Wild ... Blow?
isnt that a webnovel author
Bladeblade. FOR TWICE THE EDGE
Other possible combinations include Flameflame, Doomdoom, and Shadeshade
Also Steelsteel
I'm a fan of Black Hunter
>tfw I get Blaydeblade, spelled with a Y for extra double mega edge
Shatter-shot.
Sounds pretty cool ngl
Shattershot is more of a Jim Lee thing
Blastrazor
Overrun
Well that's boring.
Bloodflame

Gun-flame
Over-Jack is either someone who is really fit or someone who jerk offs too much.
Flame blaze , oh boy I wonder what powerset I’d have ?
Shadeclaw, could be worse
Bladeblade, fricking ingenious

Cableblaze
That looks like deadpool.
Shadowrun amusingly enough
>Shadeshade
Frick you Rob Liefeld
Coldstroke, rolling for number of pouches
Painwave
I have a dental drill that can be heard from space
Shatter-whip. There's no way that no one ever used that name before.
Crowstrike.
I can't even wrap my head around that one. A birdman dressed like an early nineties Image character? That sounds more like Savage Dragon than Youngblood.
>Shadow Blaze
My favorite Sonic characters!
>Black Force
suddenly my dick is 10 inches wide and I'm getting a movie deal.
...Blackrun? Just sounds a little racist.
Black Slash
blastforce
pretty generic sounding
>Nightshard
Sweet, I get a 6 issue mini series in the 90s then fade into obscurity
>Shadow strike
>Blackforce
Why do I have to get the Black personest name possible?
No, that would be Blackwhip, who gets cancelled after one issue.
Nah that's the whitest name for a black character possible
It's Black Bomber tier
but that isn't Jazz Kang Mocha Shaka the Third
Besides the man himself, his art is absolute 90s kino. You can't understand what it was like seeing his comics back in the day. Shit just LEAPED off the page, it was so exciting and made you feel frickin pumped.
>Nightstroke
I AM THE SHADOW THAT FAPS IN THE DARK
>BladeShade
I'd be a corny dualist joke character
Makes for a good donut steel namer.
Call me X-strike.
Are you a Frog
I read all 11 issues of Youngblood and it feels like every single issue ends on a cliffhanger and the next issue starts a completely new plot without even acknowledging what happened last issue. What a clusterfrick
>Darkhawk
This one's gonna need a lawyer i think.
Bladerun here, you can't escape.
>Cable Switch
What are my powers?
>Night Claw
Pretty good in all honesty
>Doomhunter
Could be worse I suppose
Overclaw. Claws for days.
people with midle name should roll the first column twice imo.
So I can be Blade BladeFlame

>Bladerun
YOU CAN RUN BUT YOU CAN'T RUN FASTER THAN BLADERUN!
Deathclaw.
I could do this all day…
>Cybershade
Honestly, I kind of like it, it rolls well off the tongue
Cyber-run, sound cool
Crow-Force, I control all the crows
>Blaydesteel
The joke is that I only use firearms to fight with.
>Deathblade
As opposed to what, a lifeblade?
Blayde-Blade reporting in. Why the y? Shut up that's Y
>Beast has two identical feet
>Cyke doesn't have a neck

>Cablesteel
Ah
>bladewhip
Sweet, I get one of those crazy swords that can turn into whips.
>bladewhip
Wrong board
>Bloodshade
Killrazor sounds neat, like a dude with a Kill la Kill tier razor
Isn't Killrazor an actual 90s Image character? One of the Stryke Force guys from Top Cow?
Kinda disappointed "Bloodblood" isn't possible
>All you had to do was follow the DAMN TRAIN, Blackshade
>Blackshot
Either I'm a Decepticon or I shoot black holes.
>Blood runs cold whether Iceshard is around!
I mean Christ you can already imagine the blue costume with a leather jacket and a million knives strapped everywhere. Which I suppose is the magic of Liefeld.
>Cable-Hunter
I dont pay cable, only internet.
His art is shit but it has a lot of personality, which is something that most shitty cape artists don't have going for them.
