That is, to say, these exciting RAMBO action figures! I was discussing matters toy-related with one Mister Shieh the other day; marveling at the halcyon days when R-rated properties and the cartoons thereof were marketed to children. It was truly some wondrous, forgotten utopia!
“Well, if it isn’t my old friend Rambo”
“You don’t have any friends!”
I’d like to direct you all to the left sidebar, where you will find a handy countdown timer to the theatrical release of RAMBO. Why mark your calendars when you can come to the JLR daily and find out how much closer you are to Stallone turning a bunch of foreign dudes into Ragu!?
And thus it begins: RAMBO WEEK!
This is why I would never make it as a comic artist.
I love to draw, but even if I got paid to do it I still think I’d be terrible at perspective and anatomy. Part of my problem might actually be that this era (early to mid-90s Marvel and early Image, specifically) had a huge impact on my middle school mind. Maybe that’s why I’m borderline retarded, I don’t know. What I do know is that I drew a lot of shitty superhero comics in 7th and 8th grade, some of which I’d love to scan and upload for everyone’s amusement.
Now, I’ll agree that Rob Liefeld is pretty awful behind the pencil; abysmal, even. That’s not exactly a “bold” statement, is it? But this article, besides having a few funny pictures on it, is the perfect example of my least favorite style of Internet Writing. I like to call it Maddox Disease (and trust me, I fancy myself an expert on how unfunny Maddox is), and the very first sign of it is attention to detail in the most obnoxious of ways.
I don’t want to get into it too much, though, because then I will become it!

This game’s going to be ridiculous. In case you were wondering, I really liked the first one.
More updates coming soon, sorry for the slow-down lately. I guess I was just too mesmerized by D-Wars!
