Frank Miller ’s had an interesting vocation trajectory . First , he was the guy who pump out oodles of unimpeachably classic comics . Then he was Hollywood ’s new gilt male child with the achiever of Sin City and 300 . His star lead off to fade with the missteps that were All - Star Batman and Robin and The Spirit . And now — with the release ofthe absolutely head - scratching Holy Terrorand the blog post below — he ’s sold his wardrobe and get into the tin - foil pajamas and tissue paper - box loafers sell exclusively at Wild - Eyed Rufus ’ Paranoid Menswear Emporium .

Earlier this week , Miller severalise us how Batman would consider with the Occupy Wall Street dissent . His solution seemed to express a good sense of humorabout the whole thing , but that was before we read this blog mail service over atFrank Miller Ink . Apparently , he ’s piddle about way more thanthose controversial drum circles :

Everybody ’s been too damn cultured about this nonsense :
The “ Occupy ” movement , whether display itself on Wall Street or in the street of Oakland ( which has , with unspeakable cowardice , embraced it ) is anything but an exercise of our blessed First Amendment . “ Occupy ” is nothing but a face pack of louts , stealer , and rapists , an rumbustious mob , fed by Woodstock - geological era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness . These goof can do nothing but harm America .
“ Occupy ” is nothing short of a ill-chosen , badly - expressed attempt at lawlessness , to the extent that the “ movement ” – HAH ! Some “ motion ” , except if the Bible “ gut ” is attached – is anything more than an ugly way argument by a cluster of iPhone , iPad exert spoiled brats who should stop getting in the way of working people and retrieve jobs for themselves .
This is no democratic uprising . This is garbage . And goodness knows they ’re spue their garbage – both politically and physically – every which way they can recover .
Wake up , pond scum . America is at war against a ruthless enemy .
peradventure , between bouts of self - pity and all the other tasty tidbits of narcissism you ’ve been serve up in your sheltered , comfy footling worlds , you ’ve see terms like al - Qaeda and Islamicism .
And this foe of mine – not of yours , apparently – must be make a dark chuckle , if not an outright horselaugh – out of your bootless , childish , self - destructive spectacle .
In the name of decency , go home to your parents , you losers . Go back to your mommas ’ basements and play with your Lords Of Warcraft .
Or better yet , enlist for the veridical thing . perhaps our military could whip some of you into material body .
They might not allow you babies keep your iPhones , though . judge to soldier on .
Schmucks .

At this point , someone should really give Frank a well-disposed phone call and tell him that Harry Potter films were n’t documentaries and that the guy who bring Voldemort is just an worker . Hey Frankie , Voldemort was also John Steed in that Avengers movie nobody liked !
But for serious , it ’s always a bummer to see the guy cable who penned Robocop Vs . Terminator supervene upon any sort of telling discussion of the issues at wager with wackadoodle Islamophobic confederacy - mongering ( and I really , really fucking like Robocop Vs . Terminator ) . I imaginethis songplays 24/7 in the jukebox at the diner in Frank Miller ’s psyche .
