From a strictly business outlook I can see why Millar would get a chance to do something radical, he's quite successful. BUT WHY WASN'T HE STOPPED FOR THREE FULL YEARS?! Is there absolutely not one person in Avatar who reads the comics and they only found out by chance?

Sure, but couldn't they have ashcanned the whole thing or even just force him to get a co-writer? Anything but put their logo proudly on it as if it's worth reading. I just read through Crossed +100 and while I recommend just the first 6 issues, it's conceivable that low rent gore fetishists could enjoy the rest of it. The unfunnies seem like the sort of stuff only a serial killer could enjoy.

Turnes out that following the authors is the strategy to pick: the original Crossed by Garth Ennis were cool and good and I lost interest in the franchise after he left, I only came back to +100 because Alan Moore. I actually liked Wanted quite a bit but there's no denying that in got lost up it's own a as by the end, and now that I see first hand what Millar does when he's given permission to go hog wild I can understand why.

Avatar has a thing about starting an engrossing series with top shelf writer and artist and then replacing them with complete hacks. It's like I lease you a Cadillac and four months later switch it for a cheap Subaru.

If you need some sketchy electroshock treatment to wipe it back I might know a guy.

Comfort yourself that you can still feel such impassioned revoltion at this, my sadbrain is just emotionally dead to it. I doubt that Mark Millar actually learned this much from this failure, I think eventually his ego will build up to dangerous levels again and he'll go super-critical.

How meta. The upshot of all that is that you should watch Too Many Cooks instead of reading this.

Alan Moore's Providence (and the two preceding lovecraft comics) is horrendously edgy, but he did manage to add something interesting to the Cth'ulu mythos. He didn't just make child rape jokes.

Mark Millar is basically what would happen to the Dominic Deagan guy if he made it big.

You can always tell when the artist doesn't give a gently caress Contrast this with a massive work of labor such as Cuphead, cartoon art can be amazing. E: not that I hold it against anyone working with Millar for not giving a gently caress. By popular demand fucked around with this message at 09:06 on May 22, 2019 |

I'm honestly way more angry about the twit than anything and everything Mark ever published. E: Goat licking is not as bad as Farage licking.
