Maybe now, DC can hire an actual artist and Marvel won't ever hire him again.

@Mrcool210- Don't worry. As long as there's some moronic comic book company, Liefeld will never leave. Besides, if his career didn't die after the 90's, it's certainly not going to die in the present. Which is a misfortune to us all.

I wonder, when he cleared out his desk, instead of putting all his things in a box, did he stuff all his pencils in a massive bandolier with lots of pouches?.

I love that Cap. Amererica pic. It looks like his chest is hinged and somebody is opening him from the other side 😜

@BossWalsh- You should see Progressive Boink's collections of his drawings. That Cap picture is just the tip of the iceberg.
