Just to clarify, John didn’t agree with the title of being the new "king", someone else REALLY didn’t agree with John being the new king, but again, the same person said Liefeld was the new king, sooo, there goes his credibility as a critic. Yeah, it was a subtle Liefeld diss.
Just found this!! How rare is this? Love it. Guy was my artistic hero as a kid. If it were not for his comics my childhood would have been absolutely unbearable.
Unfortunately hes the most Over hated super hero in marvel. Cyclops is the best leader in the X-men, really underrated when it's come to him as a Leader, who did everything he can for the best of Mutant kind.
Mine too...wow!! I had all the issues he did with Alpha Flight & Fantastic Four (as well as of course The X-Men) and I know ALL the great storylines from them! All the best FF issues were the ones he wrote and illustrated. The only reason why I ever bought a Superman comic book was because of him. He is and always will be the greatest
....so awesome to watch John working. I was such a huge fan of his in the Eighties I incorporated a lot of his technique into my own artwork. Thanks for sharing...and thanks Mr. Byrne for your creativity....
I go out of my way to give credit where it's due to someone drawing digitally, nodding my head, going 'Yeah, it's good, really no difference.' Then I see this; and I'm thrilled to bits like I was when I first fell in love with drawing.
John Byrne saved my otherwise hellish adolescence, which happened to coincide with his stint on the X-Men, and then on the Fantastic Four. His style is just so unique and enjoyable. Of course, all of us comic artist wannabees copied his style, so I'm sure Marvel got a lot of submissions that looked very similar. I have something in common with Mr. Byrne: My mother gave all my Transformers away to some children's charity also, and it's cost me a fortune to get them back.
Literally laughed out loud about who the person said the True New King was!!! Whoever that person is, he's deranged! Whoever he is, he comes right out of a comic-book himself!
I could have sworn that it was Todd McFarlane who said that. I remember him saying something along those lines in an interview in CBG or something around the time Image was formed.
John Byrne is without a doubt my favorite artist and writers of all time. But in my opinion, in his later career, his art has become very sketchy. I wonder if the reason is Byrne is inking his rough draft rather than inking his finished pencils. Pretty much like he did in this video.
Without John Byrne mitigating Chris Claremont’s excesses our world would be completely different. There would be no MCU without their collaboration on the base laid by Lee, Kirby, Ditko, Adams, Conway and others.
So now that everyone that watched this vid knows how to draw shiny outfits, do we get Snaptured? John, George Perez & John Romita serve as my Jack Kirby successors off the top of my head.
The best part of this video was the classy shade he threw on Rob Liefeld. I died out loud 😂
legend
Yes lol
yep😊
His confidence with that marker is insane. I love his X-men but the way he saved Superman will always be the coolest thing he did for me. 🙏
Epic video... it's great to see the legendary John Byrne drawing and the stories he had to share were great.
4:44 audio does not match
John Byrne has always been my favorite artists.
I love this guy.
Me, since 1984.
MORE JOHN BYRNE! MORE JOHN BYRNE!
' i developed a habit of forming complete image in my mind and projecting it into paper" thats visualization, a gift fed artist, a lengend!!
lmao that Liefeld diss
Barely a diss. Easy to read a lot into it.
@@robertreichle1 I choose to take it as one. And it is glorious.
@@robertreichle1 It didn't really need to be, anybody who knows comics knows Liefelds artwork in the 90s was terrible lol

Who was the artist who thought Liefeld was the new king? Was it Todd McFarlane?
Watched this with a smile on my face
Me too
Genius. So grateful for SyFy sitting him down to draw and talk about his impact on comics. THANK YOU!
So good to see one of my favorite artists take center stage again.
Man! As a kid growing up in the 1980s i was in awe of John Byrne’s work. George Perez as well (in the DC comics). John Byrne is a Marvel legend.
Just found this!! How rare is this? Love it.
Guy was my artistic hero as a kid. If it were not for his comics my childhood would have been absolutely unbearable.
can you imagine, all the crews fighting each other for that sketch?
Love this guy. His Fantastic Four run was mostly excellent.
You beat me to it! His Fantastic Four run is classic.
Cyclops is still the cool character in my opinion.
Unfortunately hes the most Over hated super hero in marvel. Cyclops is the best leader in the X-men, really underrated when it's come to him as a Leader, who did everything he can for the best of Mutant kind.
You get a gold star for speaking truth
@@Belowone *gives gold X for speaking truth as well*
Cyclops was right
cyclops was right, look at hickmans run
Byrne is my fav and esp. his Xmen.
The best (or at least, my favorite) Superman artist.
I would frame this in silver & gold. Thank you, Mr. Byrne.
John Byrne, my all time favorite comic artist during the 1970s. He’s still is a spectator artist!
These videos are such a gift. Very thrilled that John is sharing his gifts and stories.
John Byrne still has it, he draws like the good ol' days !
He still got it.
He was my favorite artist growing up! I love his work!
X-Men, FF, Alpha Flight, Supes - my fav. Byrne runs.
She-HULK was also a fun run!
Mine too...wow!! I had all the issues he did with Alpha Flight & Fantastic Four (as well as of course The X-Men) and I know ALL the great storylines from them! All the best FF issues were the ones he wrote and illustrated. The only reason why I ever bought a Superman comic book was because of him. He is and always will be the greatest
he also did a great 3 issue Batman arc with a famous almost wordless issue with Aparo.
Sketching with a sharpie-True comic master.
He's exactly as I thought he would be from reading his posts through the years. He just cracks me up.
There will never be another King Kirby. There will also never be another John Byrne.
or another rob liefeld
@@necklup4407 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
....so awesome to watch John working. I was such a huge fan of his in the Eighties I incorporated a lot of his technique into my own artwork. Thanks for sharing...and thanks Mr. Byrne for your creativity....
I keep coming back to this video still can't figure out why but I know John Byrne is a legend
Currently reading his Superman run. Loving it
Wow, he is so quick, incredible talent, read tons of his comics in the late 70s through mid 80s back in the day.
My most favourite writer/artist! A true master!
I go out of my way to give credit where it's due to someone drawing digitally, nodding my head, going 'Yeah, it's good, really no difference.' Then I see this; and I'm thrilled to bits like I was when I first fell in love with drawing.
I love that! thanks SYFY WIRE
John Byrne is the one of the reasons why I love X-Men and draw them all the time
Knowing sharpie fades over time.breaks my heart with this drawing.
Still a great artist. I pray he returns to Marvel and X-Men if the rumors are true.
LEGEND. BEST SUPERMAN ARTIST. NEVER MISSED AN ISSUE WHEN HE DREW IT.
That was so freakin awesome!!!
He's the king. Most big names now look up to this guy.
EXCELENT... BYRNE IS THE MASTER OF MASTERS!!!! MORE BYRNE!!!
John Byrne saved my otherwise hellish adolescence, which happened to coincide with his stint on the X-Men, and then on the Fantastic Four. His style is just so unique and enjoyable.

chris witness exactly the same here.
Hearing Rob Liefield being the king is the most offensive thing I've ever heard
That gave me a nightmare
This was brilliant!
He’s my favorite of all time..muscle definition angels everything..the Goat
John is such a great storyteller! Can’t wait to see him back at Marvel.
Literally laughed out loud about who the person said the True New King was!!! Whoever that person is, he's deranged! Whoever he is, he comes right out of a comic-book himself!
One of my biggest influences. Who would say that Rob Liefeld is the king though?! That's crazy. So many people i would list before him.
True. I wouldn't even put Rob at all on my list.
I could have sworn that it was Todd McFarlane who said that. I remember him saying something along those lines in an interview in CBG or something around the time Image was formed.
Sounds like something Narcissistic Todd would say... will have to look into it!
I believe it was Erik Larsen and Robert Kirkman, who must've been sharing a crack pipe at the time. I hear crack is the drug of choice over at Image.
I believe it was Erik Larsen.
😆😂🤣 Rob Liefeld…stop your killing me😆😂🤣
Byrne is the best!!!!!
"Draw it like a negative"
It actually blows my mind that I never realized that that was how they were drawn.
john byrne is one of my heroes X-men,Fantastic Four ,Wonder woman OMG he make a master pieces ImI
John's one of the best 👍🏻 he's temperamental..but it's good😆
Hes the true king! Loved the run he did in x- men.
This video got the Eye of Algorithm shined upon it, brightening my feed. Byrne is always great.
When I was younger I loved Cyclops he was my second favorite x men
King Kirby died, long live King Byrne
Still an impressive artist!!a
Rob lives rent free in John’s head for no reason.
I'm getting his Wonder Woman vol 1 HC
The LEGEND!
I still like cyclops hes my favourite
this was awesome.
That was amazing.
You know who is the real deal, when he starts with "I'm John Byrne, boy genius...."
He's my favorite Silver Surfer illustrator.
Adams left his mark, even on the giants. "We all stand on the shoulders of (other) giants."
He’s always been 🔥🔥🔥🔥
John Byrne is without a doubt my favorite artist and writers of all time. But in my opinion, in his later career, his art has become very sketchy. I wonder if the reason is Byrne is inking his rough draft rather than inking his finished pencils. Pretty much like he did in this video.
I agree. He doesn't give the same amount of love and effort to his art as he used to.
It's obviously he's old... Duhhh
@@31leoceara he's old
Still my favorite Marvel character! Hands down. And favorite Artist! No Question!
Rob Liefeld, Mr. I Cant Draw Feet, as the new king after Jack Kirby!? I bet it was Rob himself who called up Byrne.
Quan Nguyen, Rob also can’t draw hair. That’s why his characters usually have those horrible helmets.
cannot forget his x-men, Golden's Micronauts, and Kirby's Eternals
You're John Byrne and that Cyclops f*ckin' rocks!!!
Without John Byrne mitigating Chris Claremont’s excesses our world would be completely different.
There would be no MCU without their collaboration on the base laid by Lee,
Kirby, Ditko, Adams, Conway and others.
I wish there was no mcu
How is there 8 dislikes on this video? This is great stuff.
That was Rob Liefeld😆
jesus christ! thank you for that
No the king, but definitely the master.
Rob? Who
Along with Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, Byrne's always been a favourite.
I would have asked him to draw She-Hulk, but that's a cool Cyclops nontheless.
So now that everyone that watched this vid knows how to draw shiny outfits, do we get Snaptured? John, George Perez & John Romita serve as my Jack Kirby successors off the top of my head.
Before he passed Buscema was right there with jack. not so much in storytelling but for me a better artist for sure!
ROB LIEFEILD!!! Question: Was the artist who named Rob the new king stoned at the time?
Superb!
LEGEND!!!!!!
MASTER!!!!
SWEET!!!
WHO TF thought Rob “Footless” Liefeld was the new king?
VidVoyeur612 Finch is also footless.
@@dougg1075 but finch can actually draw feet
A true great, and funny too.
How the eff can you compare Liefeld to the legend that is John Byrne?
The Master!
My favorite writer/artist. The original Alpha Flight turned to shi* after he left
Yeah john it's been awhile
He's got a huge ego but his portfolio backs it up so I'm cool with that. always a fan.
Ao mestre as reverencias meu desenhosta favorito
Is that sharpie 0.9mm?
Sharpie couldn’t have asked for a better endorsement.
Omg I just use pens first as well I had details in pencil then add the pen
Dude flames like 6 other artists 🤣
MY PERSONAL ART HERO, IF NOT FOR YOURS AND THE LATE ERNIE BARNES ART FORMS I WOULDN'T HAVE A LOVE FOR COMICS AND ART
Does anyone know if John Byrne has drawn the DC character BANE ?
I found an image on PINTEREST but I can't tell who it belongs to.
