"Image creators have shed light on the future of the delayed Image United, Bleeding Cool reports. Issue #3 of the crossover project has suffered lengthy delays, giving rise to rumours that the series has been cancelled. When asked on his message board whether the comic is &amp;quot;dead in the water&amp;quot;, artist Rob Liefeld replied: &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s about right,&amp;quot; before adding: &amp;quot;Fans should ask Todd [McFarlane] why he won&amp;#039;t finish the third issue.&amp;quot; However, Walking Dead scribe Robert Kirkman was quick to dismiss Liefeld&amp;#039;s comments as banter.  &amp;quot;While it is true that Todd is up to his usual tricks this book is far from being &amp;#039;dead in the water&amp;#039;. That&amp;#039;s just Rob doing some friendly ribbing Todd&amp;#039;s way to get him off his baseball-loving ass,&amp;quot; he said.  Elsewhere, Savage Dragon creator Erik Larsen maintained that the series will continue as planned.  &amp;quot;Updates are - it&amp;#039;s being worked on. #3 is particularly complicated due to the sheer number of characters involved. I think once we&amp;#039;re over that hurdle things will go a bit smoother. It is getting worked on \u00E2\u20AC\u201C it\u00E2\u20AC\u2122s not as though we\u00E2\u20AC\u2122ve given up on it,&amp;quot; he wrote on the Image message boards.  Image Comics declined to comment on the future of Image United. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
