I would imagine it's consistency, just like it was for Liefeld or Chris Bachalo."Hey John, I need 20 pages by Friday, can you do that?"
"Sure thing, Boss."
Plus, dat name recognition.
I can understand him putting out 20 pages in a short time, but that still doesn’t excuse his inability to improve.
Look at the late Michael Turner, the man was putting out pages left and right, but his artwork was still top notch. Look at his work from Superman/Batman, Witchblade to Soulfire.
Turner wasn’t just artist, he was also a writer, a publisher and inker. His work never flattered, so if Turner was able to do multiple jobs and still put out such great arts, JRJ shouldn’t have any excuse.
Till this day, Turner is still one of the best artist around in the comic world, and one of my favorites, along with Alex Ross and Jim Lee.
