February 3, 2012 4:39 pm I think the photo referencing is a whole other thing but what can be said about land is that the photos he is referencing are not his. He didn't take them and you could view it at using some one else's art whether you consider the original art or not. I have had a mixed view of graffitie artists for years now due to this reason.
February 3, 2012 3:22 pm When I said may just appeal to a younger audience I did not mean only appeal I meant maybe it will get some younger people to read his stuff.
February 3, 2012 3:20 pm Well said Ron, I happen to love Rob's work and think that just maybe his guts and glory approach to stories may just appeal to a younger audience. I think you have to take art for what it is and not just compare it to other art. I mean I love Robs work but I also love Chris Ware and Seth... Yet I cant tell you who is better because while Seth and Chris are far more talented in a technical way they don't come close to Rob in passion on the page. Really what I'm trying to say is talk up what you love and just don't read the rest.

December 28, 2011 7:13 am Who is ODFWGKTA? I would love to be able to go to kapow but I think it's a pipe dream this year.
December 28, 2011 7:10 am Is the image run in that book? I'd love to read that again
December 27, 2011 12:24 pm I did really well, incal hc, new Seth book and a the bat manga book
December 13, 2011 12:07 pm I agree with everything you just said. I have the issues of big numbers somewhere in this house and every time I see them I think of what could have been and sigh. I think his later image titles (pre ABC) are really entertaining and some are borderline brilliant such as supreme and the one shot he did with the superman guy from wildcats set at the end of time. it showed a Moorethat had not been seen since his superman issues, a Moore who loved the madness of comics and could write them for adults without the need for "tits and inerds".
