Hating comics because you don't like Frank Miller sounds like a huge overreaction. If you don't like Frank Miller, just stop reading his comics. Or, better yet, roll your eyes at some elements of his work, admire others, learn what you can from them, and form the nuanced opinions we need in our complicated world.


I'm pretty sure someone else wrote the headline. That thesis never comes through in the actual article.


That's exactly what the author did here.


She still lists Batman as her favorite comic book character on this website's bio of her.

I don't think she "hates" comics, considering it's her entire job, and has been for her whole career.


There are people who "hate" for a living, like the pundits you can see on cable news shows. I am not saying she is one - I know next to nothing about her - just that these people generally exist, and your assumption that she must not hate comics might be a little flawed.


You put "hate" in quotes for a reason, and I think that explains where our communication disconnect lies.


I put "hate" in quotes same as the person I was replying to did in their own comment.
