My, my. Robbie is getting dumber as years pass.
“We didn’t get the right artist for him until about ten issues in, then the second year, they put together a great run. That 24 issues was as well –received a comic as you’re gonna find, I still meet people who are like, wow, that was great, but we had no input. That was Alan. And to me, honestly, that was Alan’s last great stuff." [H: Sure, because LoeG, Top Ten and Lost Girls were just mediocre, right?]]
"“But then he took that formula and just kinda did that same thing, I mean, Tom Strong is Supreme, it’s flattering that he found his groove back with us and started winning awards back with us because people forget, he’d fallen off the map, you can’t really find a great Alan Moore book from ’90 to like ’96, when he did Supreme" [H: I know! From Hell just sucks!]
"“If you’ve done business with Alan, you have a different opinion of Alan. He markets himself as a poet, but he’s just a ruthless businessman, like everybody else, he kept wanting to more work because he just wanted to get paid. Jeph Loeb, he can tell you.” [H:Sure, Alan is all about the money. That's why he will no longer sell any property to film studios unless he co-own the rights]
"“He’s brilliant, but to me I think he’s been revealed as someone who’s spiraled wildly out of control. Like, he had a falling out with Wildstorm, you know, he’s having another falling out with DC, he won’t work for Marvel. At some point you put yourself on line and go, well, gee, Alan, is it everyone else, or is it you?” [H: Yep. That's Rob Liefeld talking about petty industry feuds. I haven't seen this kind of irony outside the Byrne Forums in years]
"“Alan just wants to get paid more money, that’s it. Sorry Alan. I got my body of work out of Alan Moore, he doesn’t intimidate me, I don’t put him on a pedestal like Jack Kirby and Frank Miller,. He’s just a guy who wants to get paid, and he cuts deals for himself that he doesn’t like down the line, and then he gets whiny and cries about it...Hey man, he worked for me for two years, I was quiet for like ten years. And then I watched him burn every other bridge, and I go “Hmm.” [H: "Burning bridges would imply that neither Marvel or DC would want to work with him again. Well, newsflash for Robs: Moore could go on international TV and say that Joe Quesada is a disgusting pig and that he slept with his mother, and he could still walk into Marvel, ask for 3 X-Men titles and they would give them to him.
