Episode 18: Tell Me Liefelds, Tell Me Sweet Little Liefelds

Welcome to The 90s Never Happened, your one-stop podcast for everything you wanted to know about 90s comics but are too afraid to ask!  Amazingly, we've gotten to episode 18 without having to talk about 90s "icon" Rob Liefeld. Before diving into his run on New Mutants and X-Force, we get into the man behind the feet, pockets, and question-mark-shaped women. Who was Rob Liefeld, and can this podcast do his legend justice?  Take a journey to the 90s and discover how Rob got himself discovered, forced himself down all of our throats, and created Deadpool. The trash-mouthed comic artist everyone loves to hate has made his mark being a dick, infringing on IP, and causing a shitstorm that almost destroyed Marvel itself. Did we mention he created Deadpool? Because if you ask Rob, he'll tell you himself how he created Deadpool.  So get ready to ride the wave of mediocrity disguised as greatness before Rob Liefeld sends us a cease-and-desist to pull this episode. And remember, if anyone wants to know what comics to read, tell them the 90s never happened and Rob Liefeld created Deadpool. Like, subscribe, and do all that good stuff to support the show.
