Robert Kirkman's 'extreme' influences.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Robert Kirkman is known for his successful 2000s-era comics like Invincible and The Walking Dead, but the famed writer is keen to cite the “extreme” comics of the previous decade as major influences on his work. Kirkman lists Image Comics founders like Todd McFarlane, Rob Liefeld and Erik Larsen as hugely influential on his own work, defending an era of comics that most are quick to dismiss altogether.

At first glance, the only commonality one might be able to find between The Walking Dead and the classic Image Comics launch titles in the nineties is the “I” logo in the corner box of the cover. However, Kirkman is quick to point out that the original Image titles’ propensity for splash pages and big “page turn” moments left an indelible impression upon him as a young reader, aspects which he later incorporated into his own comics.
