our mad senile pedophile king is at war with a shallow body of water on his front lawn and is losing
*shit, i meant gen-z cringe.
IM THE KING OF FANTASY ANIMAL ROCKET LEAGUE
He's also one of the few artists Marvel has on deck that isn't someone they found at an international convention they realized they could pay pennies due to a lower Big Mac index in their home country.
Disrespecting John Romita Jr for stupid reasons (being one of the greatest Spider-Man artists ever) is millennial cringe. It is instead very good to disrespect him for good reasons (drawing Kick-Ass)
There was a solid period of time in the '90s he was considered a dinosaur (despite doing Man Without fucking Fear in that time period) until Quesada basically came in and went "put some respect on his name!!!" and put him at the head of the table.
The disrespect John Romita, Jr. has been dealt recently is genuinely horrendous. It's an unfortunate reality that a lot of cape comics readers are anti art and worker when it comes to how they want "their" toys, but you're not supposed to LISTEN to them.
Anyway, JRJR went through one cycle of being considered out of touch with the kids and will come back in glory and do so again, it is the passage of time
Sometimes I think about how the ending of Kick-Ass brought the main character to his lowest point by having his crush and mom fucking black people and remember that Mark Millar is truly, truly racist
