Onslaught Returns to Marvel

Of course they ruin it by hiring Rob Liefeld to do the artwork. Every single character he draws looks like their face is simply a rubber mask stretched tightly over a deformed skull. The eyes always squint in an unattractive fashion and I fucking hate all the extraneous penstrokes he leaves behind.

When it looks like Cable has catwhiskers because there are so many superfluous hatching lines in his face, even where the light source supposedly shines directly upon it, the artist needs to stop, reevaluate and be professional.

Liefeld's musculature is also overdone. I swear he makes up new muscles as he goes.

Also annoying is that Jim Lee is doing artwork too. On his own, Lee is satisfactory, but he borrows from Liefeld a lot. When the two team up, Lee loses some of his own style and assimilates Liefeld's ridiculous penstroking, and I find it distracting. Don't these people know anything about clean lines and borders?

As for Onslaught...meh. He was kind of boring, really. What fun is an omnipotent, nigh-indestructible villain? The good villains are the ones with glaring flaws.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
