But now it appears he may be going to the source, asking his fans on Facebook to choose between these two layouts.He wrote,

Rob Liefeld Drawing Superman?

Would you pick a favourite? I like the one where Superman has an extra large earmuff in the shape of himself. But only the one, he must have dropped the other. Careless Superman.

Say I wonder if this means Rob Liefeld might be working with current Superman writer Brian Bendis? That would be an interesting team-up,. Bendis once said of Liefeld, "There is a great dichotomy…There's either some great and generous story about him or you will hear some unbelievable thing like, 'How is he not in jail if he did that?' There is no middle ground."

Whereas Liefeld spoke of Bendis, after he joined DC Comics,

It doesn't count unless it's on a baseball cap, Rob. Not the first time there has been the threat of them working together after these tweets…
