Title: Say something nice about anyone in the comicbook industry who you don't care for
Post by: gunswordfist on May 19, 2013, 02:31:00 PM
By don't care for I mean you hate, dislike generally ignore, etc. etc. etc.

I'll give an example. Lots of people hate Rob Liefield but he did create/co-create a lot of good characters (Deadpool, Cable, Domino, Supreme, etc., etc.)

The Long Halloween and Dark Victory are really good.

Heh, I like both.

Phil Hester. You fucking suck at drawing a lot of things, apparently including hair too since you almost always give Mia and Black Canary long ponytails for no reason...but the way you draw Green Arrow is ok, I guess. After reading some more G reen Arrow books, Hester is becoming the closest thing to someone in the industry that I dislike. That's all I have though. I made this thread to see what everyone else has to say.

Rob Liefeld seems like a chill guy who's self-aware of his flaws in interviews.

Geoff Johns and Brian Bendis' ability to turn their love for their respective brands into a small mastery of them garners my respect.

Joe Quesada got Ennis onto Punisher, Gaiman onto 1602, and Ellis onto Nextwave.

Same with DiDio and gathering people like Gail Simone.

Alan Moore's first two and a half decades as a writer were extremely good.

Oh,  well then I got to thank Joe for the Ennis Punisher decision.

Quesada isn't a terrible artist, either.

Jeph Loeb has written some great stories, my favorite being Superman For All Seasons.
