How dumb do you have to be to go after a universally respected person like Heidi MacDonald? https://x.com/ethanvansciver/status/1732771707818033610?s=46&t=hN7QrcuD7lAZiiIdTJ-hdA

If you’re going to give EVS more attention, can it be for something more important than “yells at people on Twitter”? I imagine that’s about 90% of his posts. It’s not really news. (Also people should screen shot it, so Twitter doesn’t get the metrics.)

Naaah, click on the Twitter link and look at all the chuds, it is very likely going to make everyone around you seem better in comparison. In general I think it’s always better to look at the context of why people are being idiots.

I clicked the link so you wouldn't have to. Just garbage people talking up other garbage people. And an odd amount of people posting what they consider to be bad art in a discussion about writing.

I'm almost relieved that Liefeld turns out to be personally awful. It justifies my decades of spite for him for purely professional reasons. I've been hearing since ever that "Rob is a likable guy, he has such enthusiasm for the industry!" And always thought "I wish any of that showed in his work."

The funny part is some others might recall that for a while he was Good Ol' Uncle Rob, the kindly elder statesman of comics just wanting to help out and hang out... and then Deadpool came out and he put out a graphic novel and burned through all the goodwill he'd accumulated in like a month. "Book cancelled? That sucks. Should have had a Liefeld variant cover!"

Those woke comic book sites just have no solutions! "Maybe don't keep replacing characters with their older whiter counterparts." No solutions! "Maybe cut down on the sexism a bit?" No. Solutions. "Hire more diverse writers?" No solutions at all. "Maybe don't ignore reports of people being abusive?" Nope. Not a single solution to be found.

Once again, as a middle aged white guy, I'd like to ask my mayonnaise brothers to please just shut the gently caress up and sit down and listen instead of pouting they can't use slurs as punchlines anymore. Millar, EVS, Leifeld. These 3 men have not put out anything of relevance in over a decade at the least in comics. Millar was extremely influential on the MCU and had two series adapted into films. Am I just unaware, or has anything else he's done been successful since? Wanted has very little in common with the book, and I honestly don't remember Kick rear end much at all, comic or movie.

Like one time he said he thinks Trump is bad but he does want the wall built.

bunnyofdoom posted:Didn't Millar do a stupid COIE thing with all his original works, including re-using his big supervillain of what if Batman was the Joker edgelord? He sure did! Basically, at the end of the Nemesis reboot, it's revealed that every Millarworld title (minus the original Nemesis) exists in the same universe as Wanted, leading into a big crossover event about Wesley from Wanted trying to eliminate all of the new hero-type folks who have started appearing in the last twenty years. It's incredibly bad and ends with some real bullshit deus ex machina involving a Chrononauts suit and two Hit-Girls. Also "every Millarworld title" includes the American Jesus trilogy, because the guy from that is president at the start of the mini, despite not actually appearing because I guess it was too hard to work in President Antichrist. I regret the cumulative hour I spent reading it. riderchop posted:yeah it's currently running (about to end?) and has absolutely gorgeous Pepe Larraz art, unfortunately Finished up last month, I believe.

Everything Millar ever wrote has always been terrible, but he helped his co-creators get paid in a way very few others who made it to Hollywood did. Sad to see him lean in to this trash.
