    More About Image Comics: Image Comics is an American comic book publisher. It was founded in 1992 by several high-profile illustrators as a venue where comics creators could publish their material without giving up the copyrights to the characters they created, as creator-owned properties. It was immediately successful, and remains one of the largest comic book publishers in North America. Its output was originally dominated by superhero and fantasy series from the studios of the Image partners, but now includes comics in many genres by numerous independent creators. Its best-known series include Spawn, Savage Dragon, Witchblade, The Darkness, Invincible, The Walking Dead, Saga, and Chew.

    I distinctly get the sense that, even back then, Jim Lee was the most ADULT, adult in the room.

    Liefeld NAILS everybody's voice. I died when I heard Todd.

    Wish there was a follow up to this series with more artists from Image being interviewed like J. Scott Campbell, Brandon Peterson, Brett Booth, Matt Broome, and others. I'm glad I got to meet Michael Turner. That guy was so nice and humble. It's a shame he died so young.

    Hahaha! Rob’s recreation of his meeting with Tom Cruise is soo funny!!!!👏👏👏😃

    I loved comics back then. I bought Spawn and Shadowhawk. Actually my dad did. I was about nine so I didn't have my own money. Thanks, Dad

    Liefeld does a pretty good Cruise impression.

    anyone think Tom Cruise would be the best person to play Rob Liefeld in a movie? They seem to have very similar levels of enthusiasm when talking.

    Here's a positive review of Rob Liefeld. He got Alan Moore to do Supreme and now a throwaway comic like New Mutants#98 just made a lot of comic geeks $200 more rich. It was his idea to start Image Comics.

    Lets take a moment to appreciate Robs impression skill. That Todd was excellent

    I remember all this. The 1980s was about comics writers. The 1990s was about comics artists. That's when I started to get out of it. But hey - more power to em.

    Does Marc Silvestri have a podcast? Love hearing that dude talk

    I'm convinced that Liefeld is a 12 year old boy that got his wish granted by ZOLTAR.

    I'm uncomfortable with how much I'm starting to like Liefeld.

  • @MaulSlasher
    @MaulSlasher 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Rob's impression of Todd is spotless. Lol

    I started reading comic just at the time image came to be. It was amazing. What a time to be a comic fan.

  • @coreyshelp6463

    its amazing how the trends in comics evolved. Most early issues accept for DRAGON and Spawn were almost unreadable. that's the testament of how hype can make something is better than it is....
