I didn't truely dislike him until he claimed that comic books weren't an art form. This is a quote from the man's article... "No matter how effectively the (comic book) movie does what it has to do, it can't transcend the essential stupidity of its central conceit." I can't help but think that sentence should be turned around to describe the author of the article himself. For instance: "No matter how he does what he has to do, he can't transcend the essential stupidity of his own central conceit." Something Filthy!
