they have taken the liberty to letter his panel since he apparently 'fogot' to do so. :p

I have the feeling that Major X is a big joke that they are making to everyone, including Rob.
....I keep thinking that this can't be real.
I thought I had just dreamed those speech bubbles.

Right? I'm a little suspicious. I mean are we really so low that you can just put the "X" moniker on anything and make a character...
Oh way. Stacy X... Adam X... Mr/Mrs X. I'm ... super disappointed.
I read that dialogue and for a moment I thought that it was truly written by Liefeld himself, it's an style similar to his awful work at DC lol.
Please tell me those aren't Liefeld's panels. Someone else drew those, right? I don't think I've ever seen a longsword or katana brandished like a baseball bat is all. Not by someone truly skilled in its use. And certainly not when you're facing someone with either claws or daggers who also happens to be dangerously INSIDE of your defensive stance. Raise a sword like that, to someone as fast as Wolverine no less, and you're eviscerated before you bring the arc of the sword back into position to hit him or parry his blows. The logic of the sequence of panels moving from 3 to 4 doesn't hold up.
Those panels are insane. The logistics of that sequence make absolutely zero sense.

Stacy X I'm willing to give a pass since I'm pretty sure it's meant to be a play on ecstacy. Since her real name's Miranda, it's not like she just slapped an X onto her birth name, either.

Oh yeah, classic Liefeld

Yeah, I see that he STILL hasn't figured out how to avoid the disappearing second hand issue. All he has to do is take a broomstick, hold it in that same pose and go look at himself in the mirror. Look at the positioning of both hands. Then draw that. Take a picture and trace it a thousand times for all I care until he gets some idea of what hands holding a sword should look like. It's not rocket science.
I'll never criticize Liefeld's art due to the fact that I'm no better. What I do want say is that I wish he'd stop using Wolverine in his projects though. Dude claims to be a big fan of Logan, but all I've seen him do over the years is use him to get some of his creations to get one over on Logan. He started it with Cable, did it with Deadpool, continued the trend with Shatterstar, and now this new lame looking character.
I struggle to understand how he finds work, his art is utterly appalling. That isn't even his worst! You would think by now he would at least have tried to get some sort of understanding of human anatomy, but no.
I mean, it isn't actually going to matter what the story is like, it is going to be ruined by the ridiculous "art".

It is all about Nostalgia
I guess so. It's all a bit disappointing to me though. I often wonder how people can be nostalgic about such rubbish. Then I see The Spice Girls are touring again, and compared with that rubbish Liefield art looks impressive.
