Rob Liefelds Youngblood Badrock 1/12 Scale Comments

Yeah. For the most part, when I think of Image, I feel it's style over content. I liked Spawn, Wildcats, The Darkness and Pitt, but everything else was meh!<div>On a different note, at least Liefelds figures have proper feet 🤣</div>

The position of Editor in chief exist for a reason. Jim Lee and McFarlane are pretty competent story tellers, that's why Wildcats and Spawn are probably the two most successful IPs from Image (personally Cyber Force was my fav). But they could have been better if they had actual Editors pushing back on some of their crazy ideas. Everyone ran their own studios and it always felt like they filled those positions with "yes" men because they wanted no oversight at all.&nbsp;

Liefeld has come across as a complete asshole in recent weeks. Utterly delusional&nbsp;

I actually just bought the first 5 issues of YoungBlood to see if I could get into the actual story. Nope, he throws so many characters at you, with each one stronger than the other. There is no plot. I just read them about 2 months ago and I cant tell you what they were doing besides there were a bunch of splash pages and fighting. This was Images problem from the begining. They had the art but they lacked the simplness of story telling. Spiderman, moral code, trying to always do the right thing. Cpt America, Government job, Hulk Smash, Xmen, Trying to avoid being genocide, Fantastic Four, controlled by hedge funds. You know all the simple story lines that make Marvel characters great. Image reached way too big, way too soon and Todd said he wanted to do pay based on sales but when you hand a 19yo kid a 150k check in early 90s. You didnt see him again for 6 weeks while he was on some island partying.&nbsp;

I tried as a teen to get into Youngblood but the issues were never consistently released. Also I do picture him more with a green jumpsuit not red but that might just be one issue sticking out to me or something.<div>Supreme was introduced in that series though and I love that character. More so when Alen Moore took him over. Rob basically just created him as an angry Superman, Moore made him one of the best comics I've ever read.</div>

He does look good. I don't have a memory of him being so overwhelmingly red though - I still call him Bedrock in my own headcanon btw lol

Damn this looks good. To bad Youngblood was a disaster of a comic because Liefeld couldn't ever get his shit together&nbsp;
