Does anyone deserve anything generated from clickbaits?
>>
>>85577188
Nah. He deserves at least some criticism, but arguably the modern comic press deserves more scorn than he does.

>>85577209
Klaus Janson really is great isn't he?
But OP was asking about Frank Miller
>>
>>85577230
Honestly Holy Terror does deserve every bit of bad press that it got, its a genuinely terrible comic.
>>
>>85577188
His writing and art have really gone down in quality in the last 15 years and he's said some stupid things. But I can't hate him especially now with his current state.
>>
>>85577188
He peaked in the 80s and has been coasting ever since. It's long since become apparent that he has a now range of influences and interests and is content to go on mining the same vein of noir clichés as long as DC is willing to throw money at him.

It was awesome to me when I was 15.

Miller did nothing wrong.

>>85577277
What non Miller stuff has Jenson done that worth checking out?
>>
>>85577317
The first Sin City books are some damn good Noir.
>>
>>85577289
That is true, but at the same time, the modern comic press has gotten so bad that Miller looks better by comparison. Even Holy Terror on his resume.

>Frank Miller will be lucky if he makes it the next five years.
>>
>>85577277
I don't think Janson is entirely responsible for Miller's good art, even though Miller started going to shit immediately after he stopped working with him. If you look at Ronin, the art is incredible, and Miller did that without Janson.

I think Miller just gradually disappeared up his own ass and allowed his style to become a parody of itself, and working alone without a spotter accelerated that transformation.

Honestly All Star Batman and Robin is so insane that I can't help but have some affection for it.
>>
>>85577188
Yes, I for one I'm glad that ComicsAlliance started to paint him in the wrong side of history like he should've been from the start
>>
>>85578510
It's looking increasingly like he'll go down as being on the right side of history to me.
>>
>>85577289
Shit taste

>the wrong side of history

Fuck you, Hegel.
>>
>>85577188
I think modern comics fans just want mediocre, run of the mill garbage and that's part of why none of them really get what Frank does. Comics guys don't really understand art. It's not like it's sjw's or anything either. It's Batman nerds who are still mad about DKSA and can't handle how Miller draws.

give him a sock if you care so much, faggot

That's not a recent pic. He looks like Freddy Kruger now.
