Hey Rob, Long time, comic book fan, here. Obviously, I was very familiar with your 90s work, first at Marvel and then as a creator of Image. I started listening to your podcast at the beginning of April after I saw your impassioned post on Instagram regarding the tragic passing of Ed Pisker. I...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to the show for the better part of two years, it’s the show that pushes me to go to my local comic book stores, flip through the back issues to find your Marvel, and Extreme work. The history that you share has opened my eyes so much, I’m only 24 years old, but I’ve been into...Read full review »

Robservations is a must listen for me on the twice a week drop! I’m so grateful to you for being a light in the dismal dystopian daze we see across social media.

Rob has rekindled my childhood passion for hero adventures and comic collecting. He deeply appreciates the entire creative process involved in making a comic book, from the editor and writer to the penciler, inker, colorist, printer, and publisher. In each podcast, he expresses his love for the...Read full review »

First. I do not listen to podcasts of any kind. I’ve tried from time to time but they just aren’t for me. That truth now comes with one exception. I listen to Robservations now. I love Rob’s excitement, perspective, and passion for the comics! And love hearing the inside stories. Although I’ve...Read full review »

I am a full time NHS worker whose dream was always to work in the comic book world. I spend my free time learning drawing and I listen to the podcast while I drive to and back from work and when I draw.

I can’t believe that little boy from the Levi’s commercial grew up to become an elder statesman of comics. Thank you Rob, for beaming your love of comics on the internet!

This is not a review. This is a message to the compassionate, beautiful human being that is Rob Liefeld. Rob: You did not just scream into “the void”. You were heard. I heard you. I heard you all the way from the northern suburbs of St. Paul, Minnesota. And I made sure my wife heard you....Read full review »

I just heard Rob’s latest episode on Ed Piskor and his suicide and it broke my heart completely. I have a 9 year old daughter and online bullying is something that concerns me soooo much!!!

Rob’s enthusiasm for comics is absolutely infectious and the impressions he does of industry personalities are great (especially his Todd!) I appreciate the Ed Piskor tribute episode more than I can say. Thank you Uncle Rob.

I’ve been a fan of Rob Liefeld’s since buying X-Force #1 when I was about 13 or so. Not only did his art thrill me but his enthusiasm for comics excited me. I read an interview of Comics Scene magazine with some strange characters on the cover. I could tell Liefeld was the artist, but who were...Read full review »

Rob, Your show is a regular part of my mental, spiritual and creative nourishment. I’m a 90s kid, so your work has always been a part of my imaginative landscape.

I’ve been a fan of Rob’s since I was 12, I’ll be 44 this year. The last 6 months of my life have been exceedingly difficult due to a divorce I am going through.

Incoming Fax: Hey Bud, greetings from Oakland, CA! I mention this because before listening to Robservations, I had no idea that Rob was discovered at the Oakland Comic-Con back in the day. Little tidbits like this is why I keep coming back to this podcast. Robservations is the ultimate...Read full review »

I’ve only just discovered this podcast but what a back catalogue of goodness to dig into. As a child of the 80’s and a teenager of the 90’s so much of what Rob discusses is right in my wheel house. Hearing behind the scenes information, Rob’s takes on them, and generally just reliving some...Read full review »

I love listening to people talk passionately about their passions and no one is more passionate about comic books than Rob. I grew up a DC kid, so Rob has introduced me to a ton of Marvel stuff I had never read…and now he’s got me on Reese’s Big Cups too 🤣. Thanks for all the great stories.

I happened upon this completely by chance, eagerly searching for a Comicbook podcast to listen to.

Rob, I grew up with your art, with your comics! What you and team were doing to form Image comics made it to the east coast during my formative comic book years.

Hey Rob love the pod, I just read your Hawk and Dove again, and it still holds up great! The panel with Hawk all suited up guns a blazer is by far a favorite panel of mine.

What I love about this week’s episode is it is such a great example on how Rob can tell a very personal story framed within the context of comic book history. Truly speaks to his talents as a storyteller. Forgive me for sharing, but Rob speaks about the Bicentennial so frequently, Id think he’d...Read full review »

This show has helped me so much. I’ve been a fan of Robs ever since I picked up a comic book but this show couldn’t have come at a better time. A few years ago when the country shut down and I had to spend 5 months away from my partner Rob’s show was the one constant that I was able to look...Read full review »

Gem of the months! Highest possible recommendation . I’d like to hear more on pop culture but comics are my bread & butter too of course. And more of the voices, singing and the TODD FATHER himself!
Lockey Mandoza via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/08/24
Have known rob for decades, met many times at con’s, and I must say, the insider history is so refreshing, amazing to listen to, I’ve learned so much from every episode, I hope rob does many more, thanks for all the fun shows buddy

Unlike so many of the listeners to the podcast I have not really followed Rob’s work either his Marvel work or Image work.

Great stories and information from someone who has lived and breathed inside the comics industry for years. Rob’s enthusiasm is infectious. Listening to this podcast has reinvigorated my love for comics after years in the wilderness (I began reading around 1976)! Highly recommended.

I’ve been listening to Robservations for a while now. Rob has really come back swinging for the fences in season 6. The Alphas really shined a light on a major problem in comics. Followed by Jim Lee or Plan B with interesting insights to the X-Mem. Then we see Guardians, Jim Valentino’s amazing...Read full review »

I love how Rob is always brutally honest. He was at marvel and in the industry so he actually experienced these things first hand. No shilling here, just a man who has a passion for comics and will tell you the good and the bad.

Is it me only that is not a fan of Liefeld art? I mean if there are multiple characters on the cover they all have the same face. All the male characters have wide mouths and no upper lip?
