I don't know much about new 52 stuff but I read the trades for Swamp thing and Wonder woman new 52 and they were both pretty fantastic.

Also I don't like the flash at all but I love jay garrick flash, he looks dope.

It's mostly just a good handful of redesigns were absolute trash. Like bird head Raven

Everything changes, Pit.
Even gods.

Vixen over Cheetah is cool. Jay Garrick is also a nice pick. Are those all the Premiere Skins? Or just the ones found so far? Kind of weird that Flash gets two.

I'm going to assume Jay Gerrick, Grid, Vixen and Freeze are in the base game and PG, Jon and Zoom are season pass people. Arbitrary but atleast people that don't have the season pass have nice things

I still think Zoom has the slickest design. Really hope Garrick uses nothing but old-timey PG pejoratives - I'm counting down to the first time he calls someone "buster."

I just realized the highlights on Power Girl's costume make her look like a 90s "sexy" comic book woman.

He had a stand at C2E2 this year. I've never been a huge fan of the guy's work so I didn't talk to him, but he was shaking hands and seemed friendly enough. Really pushing the "I INVENTED DEADPOOL" angle these days.

He meets deadlines, the nice guy part is pretty disputed.

that's debatable to a point since Liefeld created Deadpool but had almost nothing to do with the personality and presence of the Deadpool everyone loves

Someone should tell him that then, since he literally had a sign that said "I created Deadpool!" taped to his booth.

The fact that he finally got his dream job of Deathstroke during new 52 and ran it all the way into the ground and popped out in China is what loses a lot of brownie points with me.

I'm not sure anyone could draw feet in the 90s.

Also Rob Liefield did not meet deadlines when working with Marvel and when he started Image stuff like Youngblood was super delayed.

Last thing, he's a videoclip of Stan Lee making GBS threads on a young Rob Liefield

Stan Lee, bless his heart, is a raging rear end in a top hat extraordinaire who will never hesitate to put anyone down for the pettiest of reasons. I'm sure anyone with Marvel for any meaningful amount of time has felt his bite.

What a horrible thread to have a post.
A friend of mine got to work with Stan Lee professionally about 10 years ago, he said he was a really nice guy.

It wasn't strictly comic book-related though.

He has a reputation as a very charismatic, affable guy who has nonetheless founded his empire on the skulls of his enemies. He's probably super fun the be with so long as you're not at odds with him.

Meh, I'm mainly just doing it for the skins. Not sure how engaging the game itself will be for me.

I've only played it for a few minutes because I think it sucks, but you basically slide left and right to move your character around, and tap in specific areas to attack and do special moves.

So it's basically MvCI :smugbird:

Grid's the only one I'm explicitly aware of, but they seemed to suggest you had a chance of getting some of the others as rare drops, like in the main game. Who knows.

It's not bad so much as it's far more cathartic to just taze the everloving gently caress out of people. He understands this.
