and then come back to start regurgitating your lunch.
:shock:

Really?!?!?!

Who in the hell thought any of this was a good idea?
Why is Deathstroke wearing Cable's costume???
Since when does Deathstroke go "galactic" and why is his book being used to introduce Lobo and the Omegas (who I would assume are the new iteration of the Omega Men)???

How much "blackmail" does he have on Lee that this is all getting greenlit?

I guess we now know the next 3 titles to be canned when "wave 3" starts in Dec...

And the fans of those three titles all begin to weep.

I'm with you bnjmnrlyr. I just don't get the pull of this guy. Every comic he's touched has fallen apart. He had one decent run - not good just decent - on X-Force back in the 90s. And really, alot of that wasn't even his doing. He's a hack, and desperately needs to take an anatomy class. Or a drawing class. Or a frycook class to get him out of the industry. SOMETHING.

I don't know anything about this guy but no one seems to like his work so I'm glad he didn't join any books I'm reading.

I've never understood this dislike. RL created Cable, one of my favorite Marvel characters, and got me to read the XMen. I went from zero to 4 books a month because RL's XForce book was so good.

My personal dislike comes from his lack of basic human anatomy, outright copying the work of others, and personally ushering in the shameful pouches/massive guns/Xtremeblood era of the 90s.

What Fly said. I fully give him credit for X-Force, Cable and Deadpool. And he turned Cannonball into one of my favorite X characters ever. Story wise, he wasn't bad. Not the greatest, but certainly not the worst.

But his art just makes me cringe. I just can't stand it. And I'm no anatomy expert. But I do know elbows exist even on a comic book character, and that the gun should NOT be taller than the character every single time.

HALF CREDIT for Deadpool.

Deadpool is mostly a ripoff of Deathstroke. Slade Wilson vs. Wade Wilson.

Come on. :roll:

And WHEW, he's not on any of the titles I read, either.

Yeah I'm glad I don't read any of those titles.

Honestly, much ado about nothing. Something that is unfortunate with him is he hasn't really evolved as a artist. Where as Jim Lee's style keeps getting better and better. I still like his stuff, but don't read month to month's anymore.
