Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld is on the warpath against Marvel Comics and he’s not lifting off the gas anytime soon describing the current crop of publishing coming out of the company as the worst it’s ever been.
I just finished part 3 of the Crisis On Infinite Earths cartoon. It was such a sobering reminder of how noble these characters used to be, particularly with Kara's sacrifice to stop the Anti-Monitor. And now we get a drunk slob with a Jay Leno chin whose dog pees on pics of her cousin. They hate traditional values, they hate decency, and they hate us. Stop watching all of this garbage and don't read the comics.
It's one thing to take a creator's work for granted. I think it's another entirely to be openly hostile. Anyone who ever mattered to Marvel over the years has either been pushed out (like Ike Perlmutter) or died (like Stan Lee).
As his rhetoric goes mainstream, a pivotal moment will materialize: will he cave to a pay-off when studios offer a gig? Or will he remain steadfast against the corruption of art & entertainment?
Many MANY of my colleagues in the industry have preferred to take the money, sacrificing honesty for fortune and a chance at fame.
To be fair, Hickman's Ultimate Spider-Man, where Peter is happily married with children, is wholesome, well written, and well drawn. I don't think Rob ever picked up an issue.

Marvel and DC are now in the fusing silicon stage with iron soon to follow. And then it’s all over.

"Marvel publishing is rock bottom."
No lies detected
Good for him.

We need to find alternatives.
