His oldest archnemesis will always be knows as THE auteur of comicbooks for generations to come.
His youngest archnemesis will always be known for being the comic book guy that made it into Hollywood.
Is Sup Forums the only place where Grant Morrison is well loved?
discuss.

Morrison surpassed both

His books used to sell really well from around 1997-2012. Sup Forums forgets that he was one of the most successful/mainstream writers in the industry for around a decade and a half.

The britbong invasion writers are shit anyway. Manga (when it's not otaku faggotry) and 80s American comics were much better.

namefag opinions dont count here.

80s American comics written by Brits. wWoie.

Anyways American writers like conway and stern are better.

Manga was never good.

People with no names are forgotten forever.

>The britbong invasion writers are shit anyway.
stopped reading there

...

daily reminder that Claremont is actually British

>His oldest archnemesis will always be known as THE auteur of pretty good books that casuals and college freshmen think are the pinnacle of comics

>His youngest archnemesis will always be known for being an uninspired edgelord who only wrote like 3 good comics in his entire career

Yeah he did. Name one bi thing Morrison has wrote since Supreme. Nothing.

And Mill's is just copying Moore now.

Kill yourself.

he is a hack only liked by pretentious pseudo intellectuals that are too dumb to actually read real literature so they stick to comics

now go and have another hypermeme thread

t. college freshman /lit/terbox

He's a decent writer, but his rabid fans who think he can do no wrong get on my damn nerves

He definitely has his shortcomings.

Him being a fucking crazy person, is probably the central one.

Name one bad thing Morrison has written.
Hard mode: no Seaguy.

Anonymous will never die.

I'm a big Morrison fan, but I'm willing to admit he's written some shitty books. I'll never get back the time I wasted reading Happy and Supergods.

League

It doesn't matter what I say, you're just gonna be a fag about it

>80s American comics written by Brits

No. Not even close. Try reading comics, faggot.

Anything non-cape. We3 was carried entirely by Quitely.

The Filth.

I was going to disagree with you, but then I saw your quads and knew in my heart that you are correct.

>his rabid fans who think he can do no wrong
They clearly haven't read Kill Your Boyfriend.

Kill Your Boyfriend.

Happy!

I already read them nigger. Your beloved Wally West post crisis run is forgotten.

Don't forget all that garbage the Americans did to their own comics in the mid 90's. Total dogshit.

>Manga was never good
I'm not really into manga all that much, but Lone Wolf & Cub, Applessed and Akira prove you wrong.

I enjoyed supergods, more so the superhero history stuff, but found the autobiographical sections to be interesting as well. It definitely gave me a better understanding of his worldview which helped me understand the messages of his comics more. I was surprised how he admitted that the whole alien abduction thing probably didn't happen. Ultimately, the strength of his "fifth dimensional" way about thinking of art and creative thinking is that it doesn't have to physically exist to be true.

Happy was pretty shitty though.

Vast majority of manga today is just for weebs and pervs and herbivores.

The content is like mindless numb pop music in a book.

>be knows as THE auteur of comicbooks for generations to come

Alan Moore is no auteur. Like any good writer he collaborated with his artists. He was open to input and change.

is that second sentence a typo? Moore wrote Supreme and it was excellent.

>Kill your boyfriend is bad
When will this meme end.

Even though I wasn't a fan, his run on Batman is considered by many to be the high point in the run of the character (there is an argument for Denny.) All Star Superman is widely considered the best Superman story ever told. People have associated Grant Morrison with quality since he was a Morrissey worshiping faggot making Animal Man.

Needless to say, Morrison is well loved and respected outside of Sup Forums. It's just that people have a knee jerk need to fellate Alan Moore because even though much of his work in the last 2 decades haven't been up to snuff, he has given us some of the best comics ever.

It's almost like 99% of any given medium is garbage, and it is up to us (the discerning consumer) to sift through and find the good stuff.

>his run on Batman is considered by many to be the high point in the run of the characte

the only people that say that are people that never read Batman before or charactefags that care about Damian and Dick only

Wonder Woman: Earth One.

Miller>>>Morrison when it comes to Batman.

For me it was the fact that I was only familiar with Hush and some bits of Court of Owls (I wasn't much into comics up until recently). Those felt like bombastic popcorn movies, or rather standard thrillers. I understood basically everything about them without even referring to Wikipedia due to Obscure Character No. 6 making an appearance.

Then I started reading Morrison's run and it took me about a week to understand what the fuck was going on. And the more I researched, the more I wanted to learn.

What is your favourite Bat run then? The only people I've seen hate his Bat run are Batfags who hate how he doesn't write Batman like Brubaker, Rucka or Dixon did.

Post Crisis Batman up to Knightfall

That's not a run.

O'Neil

Alan Grant then

I only come to Sup Forums to charge my runes.

His Bat run is third best of all time after O'Neil and Haney

>Milligan
>Barr
>Starlin
Kek no faggot. If you had only said Wein, O'Neil and Engleheart, you'd have some credibility. But since you actually don't read comics and come here to spout memes, you wouldn't know. Kill yourself.

Not him, but Alan Grant

Milligan's Batman was great. Barr's was fun as well. Only Starlin was the meh guy out of those.

I like Starlin, besides Death in the Family. The Cult and Ten Nights of The Beast are great weird stories
