    "That decade"?

    What about the more recent one?
  • Rob Liefeld is still getting commissioned to do work for both major comics publishers.  He is one of the most successful, recognizable, well-known and popular comic book artists in history despite being difficult to work with, egotistical, contrary and missing deadlines on a consistent basis.  He has made more money than most of us will ever see in our lifetimes.  He still cannot draw a foot.

    Liefeld was the result of a lot of things. First, he was elevated to superstardom at a very young age very quickly -- he was so famous that he broke outside of comics into the mainstream for a bit, even getting his own levi's commercial. His name plastered on a comic meant the comic sold, so he ran unchecked an unedited. He was also the first person on the Image train, and his name alone was enough to to jumpstart that label which for a good part of the 90's became a serious rival to DC and Marvel. 

    With all those things under his belt, it's no wonder he rolled his eyes when someone called his art crap -- but,  one of the major factors behind the 90's comic boom was speculation. For instance, millions of baby boomers bought and trashed copies of Amazing Fantasy #15 when they were kids and they weren't going to make that mistake again. People bought these comics as an investment, not something to read (a good thing too, all of them were just about crap.)


    and that's how the manga boom in america came about
