Moonbats slighted Batman

It's been a few months since that disgusting scandal in which an alleged artist named Mark Chamberlain tried to insult Batman and Robin by humiliating the two of them in a homoerotic "painting" at the Kathleen Cullen Fine Arts Gallery. But this topic from Discover the Network's Moonbat Central sheds a bit more light on what was really going on. And I think it's one of the replies here that really explains why this was allowed:
Mr. Chamberain’s paintings dont meet the standards of DC Comics. That’s why they were hanging in an art gallery. Apparently anything homoerotic, anti-American or offensive to the majority of Americans is what makes up the bulk of “modern” art nowadays. It’s always been open season on Jews and capitalists.

For a real example of comic book paintings, go to http://www.alexrossart.com/
Yes, go there. If there's anywhere where one shouldn't go, it's to the so-called "art gallery" where the hack painter went and abused one of comicdom's best, and if it weren't for the way that Bill Willingham did an awful writing job, I'd say that Chamberlain abused one DC's best books even more than the company itself did.

Which reminds me: it's good that DC took responsibility by telling that gallery to remove all the filth, but, because of the way that they've been disgracing their own properties in stories connected to company-wide crossovers like Infinite Crisis, that's why I cannot credit them as much as I'd like to, unfortunately.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
