"I'm not a car guy, I'm into comic books." Dude, same.

Not the biggest fan of his art but goddamn if I'm not a huge fan of him as a person and a personality. What a great dude!

Same! I'd never seen an interview with him before, and he's got such great energy! Like he's great at talking super passionately at length, but also acknowledges that he's gotta stop to let Ed and Jim ask questions

This is great, Rob's enthusiasm is so infectious 😆😆

This interview is phenomenal. It moves you to tears and then makes you laugh out loud. Rob is a great impersonator by the way

The enthusiasm and energy Rob has for comics is amazing and I believe it transfers to his energetic art (especially his early work) and it's just amazing to hear/see

I use to not like Rob very much but after watching a few interviews I’ve realized he’s a god damn inspiration.

I love this man enthusiasm. Comics were getting boring, than Liefeld, McFarlane and Jim Lee came on the scene and kicked ass.

Just noticed the Captain America shield reflection in the door behind him. Love it!

Oh man, the story about Rob’s father losing an eye and Cable 😭♥️ This was so great!!!

Fact. Rob has a Charisma score of 18.

Rob's enthusiasm is contagious! Fantastic interview!

You couldn't have picked a better guy for a Father's Day interview. Rob's stories about his dad are just fantastic.

This channel is incredible and I am a big Liefeld fan. New Mutants #98 is the jewel of my collection and Rob is so enthusiastic and funny you can't help but like him.

I enjoyed the stories about his father. The reverence for his Dad is wonderful to see.

Steve Moore is a British comics legend.

I would have never thought I'd be this inspired by Rob Liefield! Respect to the guy for his passion and love for comics!

"What's an X-Force bud.." Hahahaha Rob is a hilarious guy. His Todd impressions kill me and I enjoyed hearing the stories about his dad.

"MOM, I'M GONNA DUNK ON YOU" - Rob Liefeld, 1980

LIefeld and McFarlane are the most entertaining comic artist interview subjects I've ever heard.

Rob loves comics. How many guys that have been around as long as he has has this kind of infectious enthusiasm? None that I can think of. Keep on trucking Rob. To hell with all the negative Nancy’s and naysayers.

He reminds me of when I had the same love for comics in high school.

This had to happen eventually! The enthusiasm is infectious all around. (Rob does my favorite Todd McFarlane impression.)

Amazing interview with Rob, this is why comics were so amazing in the 80s and 90s.. The people making the books had a love and respect for the characters. They were just as big a fan of comics as anyone. Today I feel alot of creators didnt grow up on comics.. maybe they saw the 90s x-men cartoon or a marvel movie if lucky, they mainly look at being a comic writer or artist as a stepping stone to some thing they feel is better. That approch doesn't make great comics. Want great comics find creators who love comics.

Rob was great. I'm with Jim on needing to hear more about Alan Moore's take on Pulp Fiction. Also, you guys NEED to get Sam Kieth on here to talk underground comics.

The best shoot interview you've done so far! I love Rob being candid and sincere during the entire interview. It's just fantastic. Bring on part 2!!

This was great! His 80's convention memory is so on. The head shop vibe was still kicking around then. Bootleg, untranslated anime VHS was new, and the rest was longboxes as far as the eye could see and little else. Also had the Dad who waited in the car!

This is one of the greatest comics interviews ever! The Alan Moore stories were exactly what I would have asked if I saw him in person!

Just catching this video now. Great interview with one of the best! So far, this is the best interview I've seen on the channel. Love the impressions, and the behind the scenes info on various writers and artists.

This was a great interview. glued to every second.

This was an incredible interview. Rob's enthusiasm is infectious. Still resonating with me hours after I watched this, so needed to post. Bought both your comics from my local shop (Taz Comics), yesterday. Hoping you both have continued success.

ROB IS ALWAYS ENTHUSIASTIC, VERY HAPPY TO TALK COMICS AND THE BUSINESS OF COMICS. LOT OF RESPECT BROTHER

God damn, you guys went *deep*! Chap Yaep, Jeff Matsuda, Stephen Platt. Bloody hell!

jaysus! his Mcfarlane and Moore impressions rule! I was never a fan of his art so much but my god i have a tonne of respect for this guy after today! so fukkin enthusiastic, honest and full of heart

Now THIS is a Father’s Day gift!!!

What an awesome interview, some great stories and colour. Impossible to listen to without a smile.

Damn what a great interview! Rob spills it all!

I love when Rob holds court. Over in Ireland when I was growing up, we didn't really have comic stores. At least none in my area. So all of his stories and information allow me to go back in time to look up artists I have never heard of on runs I didn't know about. This channel does the same thing for me. So no when I do my own comics I get to listen to great episodes from you guy's and learn as I listen. Keep up the fantastic work. - Colm

That's so awesome! A friend of mine from Dublin city says they're really expensive over there too. I hope you can find the rare and expensive stuff online so you can read'em ;)

Superfun interview guys. Rob Liefeld is on from jump. Alot going on in my life but just couldn't wait to watch this, in chunks as was necessitated by circumstance. Awesome stuff as always. Thanks for sharing.

What a great interview and story. Thanks for sharing, Rob and you fellaz.

I love this interview. Rob laying it all out there. Brilliant! Picked up my first book by him, the McFarlane inked New Mutants cover with Cable on the cover way back when. Stayed with him up until Image but then, I stopped collecting. Love him though. Such enthusiasm for the medium, loves creating, and don't take any shit. An inspiration.

Love this, thanks for this interview guys!

What a great interview!! Thanks for making it happen!

Thanks fellas for another great show. Thanks Rob for the fun stories and promos and impressions specially these family stories on father's days. Happy fathers day thanks for this gift to all involved.

Rob takes a lot of crap these days but this interview is the very same person I got to meet a couple times as a kid at conventions. He is such a grateful person when it comes to his fans and is just a genuinely good person.

Awesome interview! Thanks for bringing him in 👍

Anybody feel like we could fuel a mission to Mars with half a pint of Rob's blood. Sweet Christmas! The energy and enthusiasm is infectious.

I really love this shoot interview- Rob Liefeld is a good dude and is good for comics. Great job and thanks for what you guys are doing with Cartoonist Kayfabe!

Awesome interview, cheers Kayfabe!

this has been amazing. Thanks Ed, Jim and Rob!

Mad respect for the thundarr the barbarian hanging in the back. Excellent interview very honest

Liefeld’s energy is big. It’s fun to listen to hear how he sees comics. Like many intelligent people, he’s involved with his thoughts, but his thoughts are very interesting and he is open. The art and the artist and the person are maybe three different things. I’m trying to go light on judgment because everyone is flawed including you and me. I don’t like his 90s art a lot but this interview makes me curious to see what he’s up to now. To see if there’s an evolution. Passion does matter in any endeavor. I can see why he’s been so successful even if I think others are more talented.

This was amazing to listen to. Rob seems like a top dude. Thanks guys 👍👍

Had the awesome privilege of meeting him in my hometown not that long ago! Rob is so cool in person and he’s easily become one of my top creators ever since I met him. Super cool interview guys.

Rob is truly one of my hero’s what an inspiration he’s been to me and many fans. This was an amazing podcast keep up the good work

Holy smokes that interview was A LOT. Grinning ear to ear here. Keep it up guys!

KAYFABE! You are true lovers of comics....You barely asked Rob any questions, Rob owned this video....you just get drawn in. He's the real deal.

not even joking, seeing Ed grinning from ear to ear is incredibly contagious

Favorite part was him talking about his dad and him taking care of his family when they needed money. Distant 2nd Alan Moore talking about Pulp Fiction.

Thank you so much for this channel.

Rob's work was a huge inspiration for me to draw comics. Glad to see he's still as stoked about the medium after all these years.

Thanks guys for another great interview

I'm so late to this, but what an incredible interview! I'm not a fan of the guy's art but you can't deny he has passion. He reminds me a lot of Stan Lee, in good and bad ways. Definitely someone I would want to grab a beer with.

Thanks for another great interview guys. If anyone needs a part 2 it’s Rob. Wish you would have asked about that Levi’s button your fly commercial!! Haha

Rob’s impressions are brilliant

You guys keep bringing the heat. Keep up the amazing work.

Love to see this guy's energy. Land Air Water ( Enforcers of LAW ) - I did that when I was 10 in 1976. Too bad I never did anything with it.

Such a fun interview! Really, really enjoyed Liefeld's personality and enthusiasm. Was surprised at his views on his own mortality and his desire to get as much art as possible while he is still able to. Very sobering. Checked out his podcast and was not disappointed.

Wow! Binge watching you guys AGAIN! LOL! Great job! Thanks!

Liefeld doesn’t need a interviewer, he just interviews herself!

This dudes energy is fucking infectious. Nothing but good vibes.

Favourite comic youtubers with favourite comic creator and podcaster! Hope you do a follow up!

charming guy. most engaging interview on the channel so far, in no small part cause the rob seems so engaged and happy and on his game telling stories good job and congrats on getting your dream interview. also, im with rob - simonson is one of the best. more walt coverage please. also, the artist edition eps are my fave- can we more of those under the microscope

Great interview! Always love Rob's enthusiasm. Definitely checking out his Snake Eyes comic.

Even if you aren't a fan of his art... when you watch Rob's sheer excitement for comic books as a medium, you can't help but like the guy. Another great interview guys! I am gonna bust out some New Mutants tonight and go back to being 11 years old again.

And yet on Twitter he’s said the comics of the past ten years have all been total shit. He may have some sort of mental illness.

Oh man....what energy....great interview! Great impressions! Rob's podcast should be a video podcast.

This Alan Moore shit has be rolling. So funny. "My neighbor..." Gold fucking bricks.

Rob has such positive energy. I love this guy.

I wanna visit the parallel universe where Rob Liefeld become a pro wrestler.

Happy Father’s Day, Rob and Jim! You too, Ed, new father of hip hop comix!

I'm grinning. I understand every single thing Rob is talking about and there is so much rich history here. I honestly love hearing about comics history like this so much and absolutely no one else in my entire life would understand a single lick of this. Its insane how much badass stuff people are missing out on in comics. Truly an art-form that need a resurgence! Thanks guys for this.

I’ve never enjoyed Rob Liefeld’s art too much as I did his peers such a McFarlane, Lee & Larsen, but I’ve always thought he seemed like a lovely guy. I really enjoy hearing him talk & love his podcast Robservations. Go Rob!

Such an amazing and enthusiastic person, love it.

Great stuff. Highly enjoyed.

Amazing interview! Rob is so underrated.

What a great interview!

Another brilliant interview. Well done. Maybe Whilce Portacio next? If so, please ask him about his relationship with Jim Lee and whether he can get his rights for Wetworks back.

Great interview. Rob is so enthusiastic.

Great shoot!!! Uncle Rob's energy was so great..... I legit laughed out loud when he started cutting promos on Detlef Schrempf lol.

This was so legend. Shout out to Ed and Jim. Ya'll killing this shit. Rob Leezy the big homie, so amazing.

Rob is the man, fuck the haters! Super excited about Snake Eyes and I haven't bought a GI Joe comic in the last 15 years!

Fantastic interview

My boi Rob! Can't wait to hear this interview.

Damn I love Rob’s enthusiasm for life, comics, family and everything else.

Definitely admire him as an entrepreneur and thankful that he published Alan Moore's Supreme. Kudos again, Ed and Jim, for reviving interest in 80s/90s comics.

Mannnn, I can listen to Rob all day. Legend of Legends

Awesome stories Rob and yes the kids did come down the stairs
