Miller has always had an authoritarian bent to his work and his works always had questionable portrayals of minorities and women. When 9/11 happened it all got brought to the forefront his crappy stances just used to be hidden better. That Holy Terror thing actually started life as a Batman story but when DC said no he made up his own not-Batman and not-Catwoman for it

He claims it was his decision to make it a not-Batman project. :mmmhmm:

While standing in line for the self- checkout line at Wal-Mart, I was thinking how if machines can do the work, they replace people no matter how low the minimum wage.

Whatever you do don't think about what happens to the people in those positions when AI rolls out / mechanical labor becomes cheap enough.

THUNDERDOME LOSER 2020

Last Buffalo posted:

I know Frank Miller has detestable politics and loves tits more than Horsey, but everyone seems eager to mark him up as a more famous Chris Muir.

Miller has multiple great pieces of work and an unique look that is interesting in its own right. Yes, he's now a racist blowhard, but he's not a total loss. Like many a weird nerd who's creepy obsessions manifested themselves into some highly successful art, he's lost self awareness and now makes poo poo. He's much closer to the comic book Paul Schrader.

I would argue that, like Miller, Muir has deteriorated from the zenith of his skill. Long ago, the art in his strip was better (because the characters weren't trapped in the Uncanny Valley), and the jokes were better (i.e. daily-comic-strip funny) and more grounded in reality. I believe Day by Day jumped the shark in 2007, when the company the main characters worked for went out of business and the strip started branching out into crazier and crazier poo poo. More recently, Muir has started to take his art in "bold" new directions, so the art quality has gone down as well. I'm not saying that even Muir at his best is as good as Miller at his worst, but both men have have definitely allowed their minds and talents to wither.

I'm not sure if you didn't finish the story but he was going a lot bigger than Columbine with that plot. That said I feel like it made it all worth it to realize that League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was Alan Moore getting comics fans worldwide to flip out for his Harry Potter fanfiction.
