What are some things he's written that aren't edgelord deconstruction or incest? I think he's a good dude personally, but I'm having trouble finding anything of his that isn't that.

The Authority arc he wrote. That was super fun, specially his take on the Stormwatch world and how trickle down inot the cold war.
>>
>>153660738
as much as i love the authority its kind of edgelord ,anon doesnt want that

Comic book are just like that. It comes with the territory. That's why comic book writers have problems writing for TV and Movies. Is a different thing.

>>153660020
Superman Red Son first appears to be edgy deconstructionist stuff, then turns out to be pretty classic hopecore, though it's a question as to whether that aspect of it is actually Millar or Grant Morrison saving Millar's ass.

Millar said the other scot gave him the idea for the conclusion.

Haven’t read it yet, but I just bought the Starlight TPB the other day because I learned who Goran Parlov was and really like his art. This seems kinda wholesome though from what I’ve heard.

He draw Punisher Max. Wow.

>>153660738
That had incest and edgelord deconstruction.

>>153660020
1985 series for Marvel, though it wasn't very good. The one story about the little wheelchair boy who becomes a superhero, I didn't read it but I think it's not edgy, Huck too I think?

Why are Irish, Scottish, and English comic writers so into edgelord deconstructivism?
>>
With Morrison? Flash or red son
Without? Mainline Fantastic four and MK Spiderman
Also Kick ass wasn't that edgy if we compare with wanted or unfunnies

It is weird that so many of them seem to do that.
>>
>>153665231
Or imitate others who do it.

This and Huck
>>
>>153664536
It's fun.
>>
>>153668683
No, it's not.

>>153669086
It is. You're just a bitch.

Because they are Second Generation british invasion. They come from the Alan Moore school of thought, but they also understand they need to sell and play the industry game that's why this scot created MillarWorld, he has a legal safety net to isolate himself from what happened to Alan Moore and Jack Kirby. If I understand correctly, Jack Kirby was hurt by the industry.

Or Tex Avery. The industry also hurt Tex Avery decades before all of this.
>>
>>153669086
Yes it is. Coming up with superhero stories with higher stakes and a pinch more realism is a fun creative process, and reading it (provided it's done well) is a blast. There are some many emotions and twists and turns amd all that.

It's much easier and lazier to deconstruct than to construct and you wind up with a depressing mess of destroyed characters.
>>
>>153672625
What does it mean to construct as opposed to deconstruct?
