Was that the one with Batman using guns, fighting dinosaurs in a hollow Earth and incredible facial expressions?

Frank Miller has a lot to answer for for basically being a fascist, but his biggest comic crime is perpetuating the idea that Clark and Bruce aren't besties.

The Tom King run on Batman started good but then it just went up it's own rear end. That's pretty much a lot of modern comic book runs though .

NorgLyle posted:I read two of his Dilbert prose books back in the 90s and I still remember a chapter where he set out to disprove gravity. Or, I guess, present an alternate theory that would explain everything just as well and it was hilariously obvious that he didn't understand anything about gravity beyond 'things fall down'. That one wasn't so dumb--it was just a thought experiment about what if the earth and everything on it doubled in size every ten seconds, which pushed everything together, which would supposedly have the same effect as gravity. Some thing that just might make you go whoa if you're stoned. I think the purpose was to prime the reader's mind for a looser interpretation of the immutable laws of physics... since the next chapter, IIRC, was about how you can make things happen by just imagining/wanting them to happen. I think he argued that this was the main method he used to become the most successful comic strip artist of the 90s.

His gravity stuff was pretty dumb even before he doubled down on insisting it was a fantastic thought experiment and not something that a trivial amount of thought would disprove.Platystemon posted:Scott Adams’ disbelief in gravity came up in another thread.

Is he a flat earther? A weird group of flat earthers don't believe in gravity. They call it grabity, because they think it's ridiculous that the earth would reach up and grab something.

The 100 Acres Happy Acres or whatever the other cartoon segment that wasn't Garfield was called. Like I vaguely recall the Rooster calling it grabbity because it grabs and pulls you down.

Preem Palver posted:That channel hadn't released a video in months before GW announced their new policy. They also did not contact him to stop, demonetize, or de-platform him in any way. Notably, Oculus Imperia has released new videos since TTS went down. He uses a ton of GW art as background, and was the editor on TTS, so... Luetin09 is also still releasing, and they use GW art for backgrounds too. Those are two of the biggest lore channels that I know of and are prime targets for a copyright claim. Both of those are worth following, although Luetin09 needs to tighten his scripts up by 15-20 minutes for the long ones.

My favorite crazy British comics writer thing is that a lot of the guys from the original Hellblazer run claim to have seen John Constantine in real life. Like yeah bud, there's no way some random British guy in the 80's would wanna be a Sting lookalike.
