Hello, L.A. comic fans! If you’re near Golden Apple Comics tomorrow, what are you going to do?
Well, Armageddon over there to have Rob Liefeld sign stuff! (Forgive the pun.)
The artist behind the new series Armageddon Now will be hitting the comic shop from 7-9pm with his partner-in-crime, Phil Hotsenpiller. The series is a modern fictional tale dealing with the Biblical Revelations, spanning New York to Los Angeles to Israel as terror builds in the shadows.

REALLY original name. NOTHING like Apocalypse Now at all. I like how it DEFINATELY isn’t just using a synonym of that, or anything.

Maybe if he writes his autograph REALLY big no one will notice how crappy his artwork is. It also sounds like Rumsfeld wrote the plot for his book.

Actually, I’m sure it’s nothing like Apocalypse Now.
Apocalypse Now was good.
Now I’ll just sit back and wait for Liefeld to respond, as he always does. It amuses me.
I wonder if the jeans from that old commerical still fit him?

Bought the book a few weeks back and I really like. Given that it ties into biblical prophecy and THE APOCALYPSE i didn’t have a problem with the content or the title itself. As for the art, i usually like like Liefeld’s stuff, but this isn’t the nostalgic style of his regular comic work. It’s painted, which i think is a fitting departure, and seems appropriate for the subject matter.
