And filter out!

Poor Ceci is full of itshay & very delusional. However, it comes as no surprise that you agree with his delusions.



You (& other delusional fools) see patterns with JB leaving certain projects & therein lies the idiocy. The only link in the chain is JB's leave-taking, the other patterns, while some have similarities, are the exaggerated fabrications of a few moronic personalities.

So the relatively few times that JB has lambasted someone (whether deserved or not) outweighs the countless times that JB has, indeed, talked nicely about others?

Or is it just more fun to shine the spotlight on the negative?

Of course, Paul is unable to point to any information that contradicts my summary. But this will not stop him from talking about how full of "itshay" I am.

To other people, of course. He is ignoring me, you see.



Uh... Paul? This is exactly what I said. The only constant in these situations is John Byrne.



How well a man acts towards people he is already inclined to treat well tells you nothing about him. How he acts towards people he is inclined to treat poorly tells you a great deal.

It does. That's the nature of the beast.

And "relatively few" to what? Relatively to other comic creators? Not even close. Relatively to most people? Not even that. Which is the whole point.

So in your estimation, bad outweighs good? Please tell me I'm getting this wrong.



Will the words comparatively speaking help? Of course, if the bad outweighs good delusion is at the forefront of your forehead, then nothing will help.

Ceci didn't fabricate any information in his post at all. He simply listed times Byrne has quit jobs along with the very reasons Byrne himself has offered for leaving those jobs.




The patterns are right there in Byrne's own words. You may not like them but there they are. The pattern I described above could be an outline for just about every one of Byrne's own stories detailing how and why he quit the jobs that he did.

It's hard to negate that Byrne has abruptly quit a more than a few gigs. This is fact. Byrne however seems to be of the philosophy that he quit a lot a jobs, but because he feels he had a good reason for doing so, it shouldn't be said that he quits a lot of jobs.



And yet you still seem unwilling to consider that maybe its Byrne who's got the problem.

Yes... especially in Byrne's case where likes to lambaste people with such flourish.

He may have said a million times that poor Jean Francois has nice hair but that one time that he told Jean Francois that his Halloween costume was shitting all over Will Eisner's grave is definitely going to outweigh the compliments.

You can have a very loving, affectionate husband but if once a month he gets drunk and beats up his wife, guess what's going to define the marriage?

So in your estimation, bad outweighs good? Please tell me I'm getting this wrong.

This is completely ridiculous and I refuse to even try to correct you because you are the one that's delusional.

Anyway, it's a big day tomorrow with the issue 31 of Next Men out. Will it be any good? Will the hordes of detractors be won over by Bryne's art and storytelling?

The preview art so far is much better than I was expecting, and miles better than the art in the original series. Byrne seems to be putting a lot of effort into this one. The last one looked like he hacked it out with ink and frayed twig.

The story, on the other hand, jury's still out.
