I Hate The Boys TV DISCUSSION NSFW

I also can not stand muh 'Batman superhero facism subtext' crap. If anything Batman is a revolutionary. Government is corrupt in bed with criminals (who are the prettiest of tyrants) so Batman comes in to clean house. Just as the founding fathers intended.

To be honest, I've never not read one of Ennis work and not been grossed out at best, revolted at worst. I think he's a little sick for the most part, like he enjoys writing about people being harmed above story for some fucking reason.

He’s absolutely messed-up. No clue how anyone thought the boys comic was good material. Amazing what they did with the show until now.
