Larfleeze 1 series#

He kills a powerful 'lord's' (is it a lord?) dog. The battery on his ring expires, but he doesn't. This gives us some backstory, which is good since I know nothing. Love the sarcasm that both Larfleeze and the butler have in this. I can handle the cursing, but holy smokes, a 10-year old boy didn't need to see that. The image of Larfleeze's birth was a bit much. And of all the comic books we have read, this is the only one I have taken pause on. That fits too.īut what is Larfleeze? A dog? Haven't figured that out yet.

Orange, of course, would be Fritz's favorite. I said, 'Isn't that green?' No, much like Power Rangers, there are all sorts of colors. It was explained to me he is the Orange Lantern. Never heard of him until a week or two ago, but my wonderful son asked in the LCBS if they had any comic books with him. I have spent this week organizing our ever-growing comic book collection. So, after gathering up the LEGOs, the empty water bottles, X-Box stuff, I saw two comic books. :) In my cleaning, I came across a pile of my son's stuff. I straightened up the house to make a good impression. My son and wife are returning from Disney today.

Larfleeze 1 series#

Giffen's first published work was 'The Sword and The Star', a black-and-white series featured in Marvel Preview, with writer Bill Mantlo. He also plotted and was breakdown artist for an Aquaman limited series and one-shot special in 1989 with writer Robert Loren Fleming and artist Curt Swan for DC Comics. That approach has brought him both criticism and admiration, as perhaps best illustrated by the mixed (although commercially successful) response to his work in DC Comics' Justice League International (1987-1992).

His dialogue is usually characterized by a biting wit that is seen as much less zany than dialogue provided by longtime collaborators DeMatteis and Robert Loren Fleming. Giffen is known for having an unorthodox writing style, often using characters in ways not seen before. He also created the alien mercenary character Lobo (with Roger Slifer), and the irreverent 'want-to-be' hero, Ambush Bug. He is possibly best-known for his long runs illustrating, and later writing the Legion of Super-Heroes title in the 1980s and 1990s. Keith Ian Giffen is an American comic book illustrator and writer.
