unrelated but for a while dickeye would pretend to be genderqueer on irc. he chose a name, Grace, to use specifically because it wasn't already registered on zirc (or maybe it was already synirc by then) he quit irc in disgrace shortly after the pillow incident and with that afaik has never pretended to do that whole thing again. i think he was exclusively trying that as a gimmick to get relationships??

honestly though like, it was really creepy and weird how he refused to use a name that was already happened to be registered, it had to be one that could be registered.

I've only ever read a little bit of Ennis here and there. Can never get past the degree to which most of his works seem to revolve around: 1. Shocking the audience with arbitrarily purreil attempts at humor 2." 'ere, I'm a toof irish bloke an' these are me mateys, who're toff irish blokes also. Lookit 'ow toof we aer!" His superhero work somehow always seems to be better than his other offerings, which seems weird to me given that he's the most aggressively anti-superhero comics writer there is.

Joe Shishido as an Old looks like he got surgery to reverse his chipmunk cheeks. He looks so goddamn weird in these 60s/70s yakuza flicks. edit: his chipmunk cheeks were achieved via surgery in the first place just fyi

I'm sure Ennis is ~talented~ and all, but he is the kind of dude (an rear end in a top hat) who would benefit from stronger editorial oversight rather than being liberated by the lack thereof. Someone to go. "No, Garth, you shouldn't have your deuteragonist gently caress a goat, and also don't have your only lady character get forced into gang-oral-sex at gunpoint, you motherfucker"

Morrison does it too often for me, but I still really like his stuff too. Morrison at least seems to have good intentions and is trying to do something other than get laughs or gross-out reactions from it.
