"A sequel doesn't HAVE to "top" the original, it just has to not REPEAT it. And DK2 certainly isn't just redoing DK1. It's a continuation."
If the sequel approached the quality of the original, that would be good. The art IMHO, does not.
"Buy it or don't buy it. Like it or don't like it. That's up to you. But don't be so silly as to argue with people who HAVE READ the book. We have legs to stand on. You don't."
This from the guy who is trying to make this comic to read as if it is some kind of deep social commentary. I have two legs, Sock puppet 666, are you implying that I can't stand?

"How is it irrelevant? Does just looking at white powder tell you you're looking at anthrax, powdered sugar, cocaine or snowflakes?"
Now this was a thoughtful inquiry. My answer is the initial assumption was that it was poison, not a fake. Some poisons can make you sick, some can permanently disable you, and some can kill you. That was the premise I based my original statement.

I think he's got a point here.
I mean, all I have to do is skim these boards, and when I see Sam's name in the author column, I can pretty much rest assured that the corresponding message will contain little or no substance of any real value.
In my completely objective opinion, of course.

"This from the guy who is trying to make this comic to read as if it is some kind of deep social commentary."
From your inability to see how the elements Miller put into DK2 mirror certain realities of today, I can only conclude that you're virtually ignorant of the real world outside of comic books.
Go back to reading your X-men, and leave the "big talk" to us grown-ups.

I don't read X-Men. Try again.

Only when I have the last word, Marc, only when I have the last word.
