@patio - there are other ways to express things. Less dickish ways.
@B - does it matter? I think the praises came as a backlash to a dickish gag, to show that it wasn't justified and that more respect for the man was needed. It doesn't mean liking the guy or his work.
@ActualButt - but is he accountable for that? He created work he liked, got payed by the companies to do that, and had his work bought by comic readers who some enjoyed. If people don't like things they don't need to read it - after the fifth Liefeld work someone should understand if he likes it or not. Also people's preceptions are to blame. I can't understand how anyone can seriously criticize him for offering an excuse to lazy preconceived people.
I'm no saint and I make fun of the guy's work and will continue to do so probably (and other people's works) but that's going too far. Also people started making fun of him for petty reasons. Every little anatomy choice or line he added is under scrutiny and I'm not a fan of that requirement. We got tracers and photoshoppers and collage makers because people wanted photo-realistic art.
@har13quin - I did read it. It wasn't meant to be taken too seriously. Also - I have no standards, so I can't have double ones. Also I'm not in the business of crusading for my standards.
As for murder - it depends how long ago I watched that Law & Order episode the convinced me that murder is never an option.
