Have you read ANYTHING By Miller other than Sin City, 300 and his recent Batman work? Have you read Ronin? Bad Boy?, Born Again? Honest to God their is a reason why he is one of the most influential people in Comics. Stan Lee who worked with Jack Fucking Kirby called him a Genius not to long ago.

Yeah, it contains elements that couldn't translate to a purely literal level. The switching back and forth of the visual elements and synchronicities of looming war, the vibe on the street and the pirate comic. It gets better every time you read it. It is saturated with background detail too. There's a great interview with Dave Gibbons on the 'Minscape of Alan Moore' dvd, - He talks of layers of synchronicity in the writing and research and also those that occured (un)naturally. Pure Magic =D

Yes! It was very clever and extremely well written. The funny thing is its wrote very much as a normal novel, although it remains completely true to the comic genre.

Watchmen no question.... one of the best pieces of writing in any medium. You read it yet?

disagree... 'Batman: year one' and 'Daredevil: Man Without Fear' with John Romita Jr on pencils are both great - so are the first two Sin City Books. DK2 was a piece of shit though.

What comic is better. Batman Hush or Watchmen? I am trying to decide which one to buy. |
