Robert Charlie Kirkman: Counting or not counting artist lawsuits?

I have an extended sequence in the next comic written in cursive

Shows what I know, i can barely get a page into it every time

Xombi being the worst milestone comic is so funny. "Yes we have one comic that stars a white guy. Yes it totally sucks in comparison to the rest of the line"

They should have waited another year to drop bluesoy so the fervor around it would be harmonically aligned to the excitement regarding Energon Universe/Ultimates/ Absolute

Yall ever just catch a vibe at the grocery store?

"What if a tech guy offered you an opportunity to change your life and then after 2 years you kinda petered out and basically went back to what you were doing"--oh my god, it was about the substack deal the whole time.

You have to goon your shit to the orange tijuana bible in the dune era because they destroyed internet porn in the smutlerian jihad

Sorry I’m gonna QT: Comic writing is not a complete element separate from the art & also completely misunderstands how much the artist co-creates the story with character design, character acting, pacing, coloring, lettering style, etc; components the writer does not or cannot contribute to.

Immortal Hulk is like Taco Bell's Barry Windsor Smith's monsters and that's coming from. Guy that eats a lot of taco bell

Fu manchu when met uh Irish Sue

If I say Immortal hulk lowkey emotional spectrumed TOAA...?

He's so Lemire'd up you can't even ask abt uhhh....? Laird? Is that a game I can pretend I used to run? Lemire or Laird?

Don't put Charlie Kirk & quitely in the same sentence again around me please.

She's so quitely'd up you can't even ask about kirby

Year One is informed by DKR, it was made after it--it's informed by what Miller learned he wanted to do with batman while working on DKR

DKR is as much a starting point for comics as Absolute or New 52-they advertised it in Playboy Magazine, it was intended to generate new readers. Now people act like it's a text that requires decoding, but dont maintain that rigidity for texts that DKR would "decode"

I see what you're saying but regardless of reading lists much of modern batman exists in the canon of influence of Miller. They construct, "de" or "re", in response to his work. Not to say you can't start with new 52 or absolute-but ppl are far less adamant about reading a base before starting those

#NeverWrongJustEarly

Is this not as contradictory as pointing new readers to the "subversive" work?

Sure but lots of readlists will point new readers to work created after DKR or Watchmen, even when the work is good, like New52 Batman, Snyder & Capullo are both influenced by Miller, Capullo worked with Moore-new 52 batman exists in the shadow of those books, but is oft recommended as a starter

"Heritage not Hate" is lowkey true for Jonah hex, my family has been reading that glub shitto for generations

Please God, it would be really really funny if Rodriguez & Camp are on Jonah Hex

Dont understood the whole "Watchmen/TDKR can't be someone's 1st comics" argument.
No one tells you to watch 209 bad mob movies before watching Goodfellas.
Feels like a complaint only hard in the paint capeshit fans proffer because they have no concept of an artistic cannon

Miller nototioursly radically changed the scripts for Hard Boiled and Elektra assassin, because the material sienkiewicz and Darrow provided him were so distinct from his initial scripts. If robinson wasnt able to do this for Sale, that's laziness or lack of skill.

Okay but Sale's a good artist and storyteller and robinson has never been more than a mid merchant, so this sounds like the often seen "good art-bad writing" combo--
