Out of the three X-Factor #6 homages, it becomes painfully how lazy/untalented Greg Land is. The poses of the characters are all trying to mimic the original cover except for Land's character's who seem to be doing entirely different posses. Archangel's expression barley looks like Apocalypses.

Why do they still allow this asshole to work at Marvel

He meets his deadlines.

>Praised for punctuality
I can draw stick figures faster then Land, does that mean I can draw for Marvel anon?
>>
that face is not even traced, it's ripped straight from a photograph
it looks like a pro athlete or a wrestler or something, John Cena, maybe?
>>
Which is really annoying because Uncanny is arguably the best current X book
>>
>>81499903
Ramos and Bagley are bad too.
>>
>>81500327
I don't think it's the best but it's definitely a great book and the art only serves to hurt it. I initially wasn't going to pick it up because of the artist but luckily picked it up when I heard who the writer was
>>
>>81500213

i think it might be his standard yelling face actually

Disagreement.

But I mean honestly what possible reason could Marvel have for keeping him around?

Rob Liefeld, anon. He meets his deadlines too.
>>
>>81501123
No he doesn't, his delays almost killed the industry for crying out loud. This is how you spot a casual.
>>
>>81501161
Then why the fuck does he still have a career, compromising pics of editors or some shit?
>>
>>81501202
He only works at Image nowadays. All he's got from the Big Two is an upcoming Deadpool story, that's it.
>>
>>81499903
Why DC still allow Brett Booth and David Finch to remain there?
>>
>>81501123
He caused Comic Crash in nineties, senpai.
>>
>>81501161
His Big 2 work was on time, it was his creator owned stuff that he was always late with. You never hear that New Mutants/X-Forcewas late, just Young Blood and that one issue of Death Mate
>>
>>81501123
>>81501161
Uninformed anons ahooo!
Liefield fucking learned after Deathmate crossover that screwed Image and Valiant, which BTW was something that happened over 20 years ago now.
Unless you live in some kind of special idiot's version of time, 20 years is a LONG time for thing to change.
He ALWAYS gets his deadlines on time these days, and he's posted youtube videos of him literally finishing the drawings in his car on the way to work to get deadlines done on time.

Of course his art hasn't improved at all so it's debatable how good a trait that is for him.

HAH so I was right the first time! I knew it didn't make sense that someone as shitty as him kept getting work unless it was due to never him being late. So who's the casual now, >>81501161?
>>
>>81500327
Luckily Land is cover only on all of the announced upcoming issues.
>>
>>81501496
Oh thank god

Examples.

This was for his nu52 comic in case it wasn't obvious.
>>
>>81501445
I want to see an alt universe where Liefled didn't become rich at 20 from comics. I wonder what his work would look like if he had actually tried and improved instead of reaching the peak almost instantly
>>
>>81501279
>and that one issue of Death Mate
Only issue that bitchslapped industry.

Not trying to defend Land, but isn't that the opposite of lazy?
>>
>>81502163
No because Land is just using some of his stock poses rather than doing the reference properly. It's like recording a cover with the wrong lyrics
>>
>>81502289
I love his smiling-blonde.jpg
>>
>>81501445
you are still the casual for having someone else do your research for you.

In my opinion, Liefeld keeps getting work because of his reputation in the 90's when his art style defined how a lot of cape comics were drawn.
>>
>>81503023
>his reputation in the 90's

He got work at DC because of who was in charge. Bob Harras ( former editor of the X-Line in the 90's and then Editor in Chief of Marvel) and Jim Lee

Scott Lobdell working at DC is also because his old X buddies from the 90's are running the show.
>>
>>81503023
>mah nerd dick iz bigger than yours
Whatever. Anyway, his art sucked then and it still still sucks now. How can a man not improve when he makes his living from drawing?
