He's also the owner of the vaunted Governor's Sword. That has to be worth something.

I can't believe we're talking about Liefeld and no one's posted the video he did with Stan Lee back in the day.
The best part is when they "create" a character "together" and Stan's natural predatory nature takes over.

All of his covers with multiple characters always look so haphazard, like he just starts drawing one guy and gives no thought to what any other characters are doing. It's really obvious he drew Cable before Fast Running Guy, for example.

Actually, no:



He was decapitated by the Iraqi supervillains while they were invisible.

In the same storyline, Crimson Commando is crippled by a mine (and is later turned into Cyborg X), rescued by Avalanche, who decides to abandon Blob and Pyro, who are captured by the Iraqis.

Stonewall was killed by the Reavers in a previous battle, electrocuted by Donald Pierce.
