Dobsons version of Batman would beat up bros with baseball bats and threaten suicide when Joker attempts to destroy Gotham.

Bad drawing and bad math. Frank Miller's iconic Batman stories were written in the 80s and his All-Star Batman was widely panned. Has Dobby even read any Batman in the last 15 years? He seems completely unaware of current Batman.

Who am I kidding? Dobby do research lol

In case you think the final comparison is too harsh, just remember: This is the Batman that kills, uses a machine gun, drives around in a Tank running over innocent bystanders, kidnaps a 12 year old boy, forces said boy to eat rats, beats the crap out of Green Lantern, steals his Lantern Corps Ring, calls people retarded, tortures people indiscriminately, and slaps around women.

DC characters are iconic and idealized. They are characters you are suppose to want to be (For Example: the recent "Be the Bat" ad campaign). But I'm sorry, I don't think THIS version of Batman is the one we should be rooting for or wanting to be like.

Just my opinion!

In case Dobson has forgotten: Batman isn't real.
He's a bloody comic book character.
He isn't some social issue or problematic part of life that warrants this spergy and retarded comic.
I can understand being passionate about things, but making a comic about how much you hate something is pretty petty.
 
I guarantee you that if people disliked "modern" Batman and wanted the "old" Batman back, Dobson would be defending "modern" Batman to death.

Holy fuck Batman's teeth. Why. And honestly, how hard is it to draw a fucking Hitler salute? It's the stiffest, most unnatural pose you can willingly make. Dobson should be drawing it perfectly.
 
btw, while I don't like Frank Miller and have not read Dark Knight Rises, I did quickly skim over the plot synopsis. Hey, uh, Dobson, we're talking a dystopian, nightmarish world where the government, headed by Lex Luther and Brainiac, has control over the world and the superheroes and Batman is literally leading an underground revolution to try and usurp power from the government, knowing full well that there is no possible way to have the best possible scenario and that the normal convictions and morals of heroes have to be compromised or else you risk everything being undone by Lex Luther.

I think you're talking about the widely panned The Dark Knight Strikes Again, which is actually a sequel of the excellent The Dark Knight Returns.

I actually can't even figure out which specific work Dobson is talking about. I'm not sure even Dobson knows.
 
What the fuck is he even talking about? The most recent Batman is The Dark Knight Rises, in which Batman follows the no guns, no killing rule, even at one point literally saying (to Catwoman): "No guns. No killing."

It's also more likely that they didn't publish Miller's al-Qaeda outing because it was as shitty as All Star "I'm the Goddamn" Batman and Robin than because it was offensive.

But the most recent Batman movies are not the Frank Miller version.
He's talking about ASBAR - All Star Batman and Robin. The comic that brought us the "goddamn Batman" line. Totally not the current or accepted Batman, but you know, fuck facts and all that.

Why is he talking about that now? It is hardly the current Batman, which has nothing to do with Frank Miller.

Or is it just that Miller is hated by SJWs partly because he's kind of a fascist and partly because he's a giant douche? The Dark Knight Returns is one of the best Batman reimaginings, but Frank Miller himself is barely more relevant than Dobson himself now.

In fact, the current Batman of the Nolan trilogy IS the "no guns no killing" Batman, and while I'm not sure what the Batman v. Superman one is, it isn't Miller's, although Batman/Superman conflicts are certainly going to be informed by past incarnations and past portrayals of such conflicts, as in The Dark Knight Returns itself.
 
As we all know, liking a character is an endorsement of their actions. You'd never like a character for anything other than being a complete role model.

1) Frank Miller might be a bit of a loony, but he gave us The Dark Knight Returns and the Movie adaptation of "300". Currently, Frank Miller amounts more to the Comic Industry by merely existing than Dobson will ever do. :heart-empty:
2) Cheaply antagonizing a rather influential person of the very medium you're trying to have a breakthrough in might not have been the smartest move
3) Dobson is incredibly fond of painting a bullseye on his chest and then wondering why people take potshots at him, it's weird.
4) Geez, that's an incredibly inconvenient way of saying "90s Batman > today's Batman", cause that's all this shit is.
Holy fuck Batman's teeth. Why. And honestly, how hard is it to draw a fucking Hitler salute? It's the stiffest, most unnatural pose you can willingly make. Dobson should be drawing it perfectly.
This, it looks more like a pupil trying to raise his arm to answer a question. Also, he completely botched the Hitler-'stache... which is just drawing a black fucking square. Way to go, Dobbers, way to go.

ASSBAR is, intentionally or not, a completely ridiculous, over-the-top piece of shit. Taking it seriously as the "modern Batman" is either Dobson trying to troll or proof that he is, in fact, "retarded or something."

Oh, just wait until he finds out about Robo-Bats...

I was going to go into a bit about how misinformed Dobson is and how, despite the influence of TDKR and Year One on most modern day Batman incarnation, the crazier parts of Miller's Batman are ignored or, in the case of ASBAR, outright mocked, but in reading that comic again, I decided that that would imply that he's directly consumed recent Batman media. It's obvious to me, after reading the comic again, that he hasn't, and he's only making these assumptions from some combination of second-hand knowledge and outdated information. We know he hasn't played Arkham Knight, and most likely never will, but the fact that he thinks all recent incarnations of Batman in media act like ASBAR's Batman makes it clear that he is no position to criticize them because he clearly knows nothing about them.

Also, I don't know whether I should be annoyed that he flagrantly ripped off Emerald Twilight's cover for his Batman drawing, or thankful that he didn't remake it with the bear.

Maybe he just knows of the goddamn Batman meme and thinks it's legit.
 
Why the fuck does anyone care about Dobson's opinions? Like, how is this worth a monthly subscription? Even trying to imagine it from the perspective of a 12 year old, I can't imagine how any value could be derived from Dobson's work.
Who can relate to him, either? He's complaining about the "batman of his time". Regardless of age, does any part of his opinion actually appeal to anyone?

Shitty art and narcissism aside, what is Dobson's artistic value? Do his ideas have any value to them at all?

He's not willing to ask these questions himself, so of course his patreon count is fucking dismal. He's purely unmarketable.

Also, did he ever put up that wallpaper?

Maybe they buy into Dobby being a nice guy and innocent victim of trolls so are donating out of pity?

Maybe it's a stupid question, but what does Dobson hope to accomplish with comics like that? It's endless whining that amounts to nothing.
You'd have thought he'd have heard of Godwin's Law by now for one thing.

Even as a fan, one's reaction should be a mere "oh... well, that's okay, I guess" and then just moving on.
This comic is not clever/funny, it's not really insightful (as people have shown, his depiction of modern Batman is completely wrong), it's just another misinformed rant about something inconsequential.
Also: Panel 2 is traced from The Dark Knight Returns, me thinks. At least we now know something new-ish:
When Dobson draws a regular Character, he adds lines in the face that are too thick/long and makes them look a shitton older than they are supposed to be. When he actually draws someone who's supposed to be old, his style makes it look like the head is made of soggy papier mâché.

Also, did he ever put up that wallpaper?
I think the "AzP cast looking over unclear-lightsource-ville whith generic-filter clouds" counted as the one for june, didn't it? Dobson is making them at the end of the month, for some insipid reason involving trolls and withdrawing pledges.

I couldn't give any less of a shit about Batman (always been more of a Marvel guy) and I still find this comic absolutely atrocious.
It reads like fucking Red Scare propaganda. Unaccurate, hyperbolic and stupid.
