Phil Noto's coloring is meh. It's better than Higgins' on the original (and on the original version of The Killing Joke) because it's a completely different process.

Even the lettering on this comic sucked.
I told myself not to read your post, it was just gonna be yet another, everything sucks post. And sure enough. Very tedious.

You're like a little kid who won't leave the room while the grown-ups are trying to talk. We get it, everything you don't like, sucks with no explanation needed or offered. Darwyn Cooke is on your actively-hate-everything-they-do list, right up there with Joss Whedon.

You bring so little to a discussion, yet you bring it to so many of them.

Bitter internet troll, picking fights with everyone on his hate list? Oh wait no, that's your job.

All he has to do to get off of it is stop copying from other artists. Tim Sale has to completely learn how to structure a drawing. Michael Golden, I'm not sure if he can undo Renee Winterstaetter.

Oh, wow. I'm guessing you're trying to say that's what my job was? Uh, try again.

And you're not like anything. You simply are the consumer who buys what he's told to buy, no matter what market-wide negative externalities that purchase may have. I could tell simply by looking at Cooke's work that he has no conscience, so it's pointless to criticize him. What I'm criticizing is people like you and Peter who are inexplicably hooked on his cheap crack.

Well, correctness. There is that. And you keep coming back for more of it.

And you're the little bitch whining about "mind-reading" in another thread.

He has no qualms about lifting material from other artists, is what I mean. Maybe when he's not at the drawing board he helps little old ladies cross the road, I've no idea.

Wow, and here I was thinking people buy things because they enjoy them. It's a whole new, scary world. Good job the comic book industry only has a couple of years left, then we can all go do something we actually like.

The question is why do they enjoy it. Are soft drinks a multi-billion dollar industry? How about tobacco products?

When we support something like this crap, we promulgate the notion that comic books are simply a cannibal network.
