Wizard No. 10 Cover by Rob Liefeld

September 15, 2019|In General

Rob Liefeld had started at DC, then moved on to Marvel where he co-created characters like Cable and became one of their most-popular artists. In ’92, he and other artists left Marvel to form Image Comics, and Liefeld’s book was Youngblood.

Wizard magazine was part of the era, and Liefeld contributed this cover with Shaft from Youngblood, and Cable from Marvel’s X-books. With slightly less glowy colouring, here is a new version.
