Podcasting Day: Frank Miller's Holy Terror with Bryan Stratton 🌭
Added 2023-04-19 12:00:03 +0000 UTC
This week we have Bryan Stratton from the Marvel by the Month podcast on the Dogg Zzone 9000. MbtM is a whimsically exhaustive podcast chronicling every month in Marvel Comics history starting from the beginning. If you need a few keywords to help you search for it, try ‘fun, informative, inclusive, good comic books.’ If you use none of those keywords, you’ll find Frank Miller’s Holy Terror. That’s what we’re talking about on the Dogg Zzone today.
Frank Miller was always on the verge of losing his mind, and then terrorists flew a plane into it. 9/11 broke Frank Miller’s everything, and much like all of America in 2001, he dialed up revenge so far it went into racism. And much like most of America afterward, he forgot to turn it back down once his enemies had been exploded. That’s why he wrote Holy Terror, which is if Batman fully penetrated Catwoman and – don’t say “no thanks” yet, you haven’t let him finish – AND he also hates Islam. You’re welcome, America.
Haha, Frank Miller actually said drawing this comic is “how I can serve my country” and depending on how close it was to the year 2001 when he said that, it’s possible nobody laughed at him. Oh it was 2011? Somebody laughed at him.
Those ACLU fatcats won’t let us show you much of Frank Miller’s Holy Terror, but luckily when I cut all of the racist parts we still wound up with the real story Frank Miller wanted to tell.

2023-04-27 06:58:47 +0000 UTCFun fact! “I hate your guts!” and “You make me sick!” is 90% of Wonder Woman’s dialogue in All-Star Batman. That’s not a joke. I hate this comic. I hate what Frank Miller became. His work became less than sub-par. It became amateur.

2023-04-20 03:59:40 +0000 UTCTHE JEWISH QUESTION? That's a deliberate, obvious, and extremely bad taste pun, surely!

2023-04-20 01:42:02 +0000 UTCI remember seeing a copy of this displayed in a comic shop back when it first came out and I could just feel the crazy radiating off of it. Based on what you all described here, I think Brockway's idea of it being some kind of art therapy might not be too far off. All that insane hate makes for some good podcasting, though. I haven't laughed this hard in a while.

2023-04-19 23:45:15 +0000 UTCThe inconsistency of muslims being portrayed as "cave-dwelling barbarians" *and* the invincible, unpredictable, 100 steps ahead of everybody organization with hyper advanced technology is a clear example of what Umberto Eco wrote in Ur...(gets a wedgie) AIIIEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

2023-04-19 19:03:54 +0000 UTCI remember seeing a short (web?)comic online somewhere in which Frank Miller is kidnapped and the only way they'll let him leave alive is if he writes a story with a female character who's not a prostitute. As you can probably guess, things aren't looking too good for him in the last panel.
