I actually started to go back and change it to "fanboys and girls" right after I posted it, but then I thought, no, fangirls are generally a little more reasonable.
Maybe I'm giving them too much credit... I mean, I am talking about Batman here.

exactly. you can't kill the sexiest (and most badass) character in comics. i predict there will be lots of panties (and boxers) in wads.

His artwork has always been like that though, and I'm pretty sure the people who pay him to do it...are aware of that fact. Maybe "no feet" is in his contract or he charges per foot, or something, lol.
Aside from the fact that most of his thighs are larger than the attached torso to it, I've always liked his overallstyle.

And for the record, he IS nice guy. :D

Yeah, that's the thing that sucks about it, I really like the guy as a person. I ran into him a couple times in San Diego and he's just sooo nice. Plus he's been through hell and back with his cancer and he's kept a smile on his face about comics the whole time.
I still think he's a terrible artist, but I don't think it's all his fault, it's the fault of the editors that let him get away with it. He didn't used to be nearly as bad back when he wasn't a big deal.

DC is killing Bruce Wayne, having him come back as a New God in the Fifth World...

*head explodes*

...and be replaced as Batman by Jason Todd as designed by Alex Ross.

*head miraculously reforms, and explodes again*

>:C

I guess I was wrong about fangirls' reaction to this being calmer.
You know it won't be forever.
Right?
I mean.. I hope.

Might be a little delayed because atm we're all busy trying to articulate the exact depths of our burning rage into coherent sentences. But overall I'd say Urge To Kill is equal across the board.
