One of the best writers the industry has to offer.

Shit on by cuckold liberals because his views don't mix well with their pro-slut, pro-blacked, pro-etc, ideologies.

Or, maybe in his later career his alcoholism combined with PTSD from 9/11 got the better of him and he just went off the deep end. Also his art took a nosedive.

He's honestly one of my favorite creators ever. Regardless of what you may think of him, you can't deny he's one of the greatest living influences in modern comics.

Also ASBAR is legitimately great and it's a tragedy most readers were too stubborn or too stupid to see it for what it was, causing it to remain unfinished.

Had to offer. He's been burned out as a writer for a long time.

What it was was a catastrophic failure of an attempt to write a Batman story.

It's only after they realized what a failure it was that they rebranded it as a comedy and started marketing it that way. Nextwave it fucking wasn't.

Dick Grayson was kidnapped and there was a carton of milk with his face on it within 24 hours.

Did some truly amazing work. That panel in Year One, where Batman saves the thug he knocked off a fire escape, defines Batman for me. Year One, TDKR, Daredevil, The Last Crusade (though it's new and not as good as TDKR or Y1, it is a worthy addition) are all fantastic. He also did some really shit comics like DKSA or ASBAR (though I still want the last 2 issues).

If you asked me to design a Comic Book Mount Rushmore. He would be in heavy contention for one of the heads.

Supremely talented artist
Supremely influential artist
For a period of a time also a really great writer

His work has more power and force than most people.

I don't know the man.
I've only read some of his comics.

>>83950770

Writer of the greatest comic book ever.

Doesn't mean everything he touches turns to gold, but you can't take Dark Knight Returns away from him.
>>

Patrician tastes.

It's about how Batman needs the balancing force of Robin to be truly great.

>>83951927
Ronin is GOAT
Miller is pretty good right now, in fact, it should be him trying to curb Azzarello and his azzspeak in DK3, not the other way around, and I'm saying this as a fan of Azzarello.

Miller is mostly criticized for making DKR2, making Holy Terror, and shitting on OWS snowflakes. I guess there is some merit to these criticisms, depends on where you coming from. But I'd take any Miller over these 4-dollar a piece webcomics from the big two, Marvel especially, and failed tv/movie pitches from Image.

Oh, I definitely put him their for comic Mount Rushmore.

Him and Kirby are the only two I'm 100% on though.

As a side, and are agreeing with Kirby and Miller who else would anon think should join them on comic Mount Rushmore?

I'm reading Elektra: Assassin right now, and I love how Frank does narration. It's so direct and solid.

He has written some of the greatest comic book stories of all time. His new work is nowhere near as good as his old work, but he's had a hard life and it's really hard to top something like DKR or his work on Daredevil.

I used to hold Miller, Moore, and Gaiman as my holy trinity of comic writers. Now I'm mature enough to hate how he soured an entire generation on the greatest superhero of all-time.

>>83952497

The reason why I hesitate to put Alan Moore on there, and the reason I'm fine with both Kirby and Miller is that they're both writers and artists, while Moore is only a writer.

>>83952561

Not arguing that they're very different from one another. But they still gladly go on my Mount Rushmore of comic legends.
>>
>>83952834

He doesn't exactly have a lot to chose from. It's Trump or Hilary, for sensible people that isn't much of a decision.

I'm not defending Hilary here, I think she's about as trustworthy as Little-Finger, but at least she isn't batshit insane, a pathological liar, an unapologetic racist, and a sadist.
