Due to a series of misfortunate incidents, NAMOR the fish testicle swallowing salt addict, will not be joining us on our quest for waterproof sunscreening butt lotion.
Ok......... So why are we on him anyway? The only story I care to recall is how he almost stole Sue Richards off the Fantastic Four. And they played it like he was freakin pimp  What's so cool about a tuna smellin bastard with seaweed for underwear? Oh, I forgot, show your speedos = make tons of money!!!!! Dorknobbin backyard hippie ninja fatbacked gigantor dusty eyed nazi cow execs 
And y'know, it's not like the art was all that great back then. I mean really, we went from cavemen's adulterous thoughts of ancient playboy scribbles on a freakin stone wall to.......... Rob Liefield.  Think about it. Such great art created by men like Leonardo Davinci, Vincent Van Goght, Salvadore Dali, and M.C. Escher were the precursor to punks who make their name by being the youngest comic book artist in the company. Who cares if he actually can free hand a speck of dirt on a monkey's nutsack, right? And hey, lets see if we can stir up some crap by giving him his own comic company and letting him throw his weight around. (I got surfing and Wizard magazine talked about a lawsuit, Liefield suing Silvestri cuz Silvestri sued him, cuz he sued Silvestri, cuz the rest of the guys at Image sued Sue in the parking lot of Sue's Sweet Suzy Q......... whatever. I lost interest pretty fast)
Years ago, I remember seeing Jim Lee's art and geeking out. He was the absolute GREATEST artist I'd ever seen! And Outlaw2k is right. Back then, we were all learning from Liefield on how to BE Jim Lee. So imagine how we all felt when they put an old GI Joe comic right next to a New Mutants comic, and the black guy and Cable both look EXACTLY THE SAME!! Cept one was bald and the other had a widows peak, one liked Sesame Street and the other liked Chimichangas, you get the picture. You start to look over everything you have that he's done, compare, contrast, turn up the brightness, call a few heffers and get drunk so you don't key his car, and possibly realize a severe hatred.
I don't have a problem with the characters, honestly I really liked Deadpool, Domino, Cable. Hell I've considered doing a run of YoungBlood fan art. I just don't think it's worth giving a hack some credit for robbing others work. And it's even more strange that he robbed his own work.
