History lesson time!

I'm old enough to remember this when it happened.

Lol, I was in the comic shop, rifling through back issues of Elementals, and the clerk gave me a knowing look and said "Looking for the Art Nigger issue, huh?".

Bill Willingham would later gain fame for torturing and dismembering Spoiler (she got better), and maintaining the racial purity of the Justice Society by getting rid of Mister Terrific 2.

Lol, I wonder if Kolsha/Kolja still talks like the Architect from The Matrix?

Anyway, for your further edification, here is the letters page dealing with the fallout from THAT letters page! And the first thing you will note, is that, of course, Bill Willingham did not answer letters on this issue, leaving it to an editor. Her first words: "Uh oh, I smell a setup."

Can you imagine Willingham pulling the "art nigger" line nowadays? In the hashtag era?

That's weird, this thread isn't bumping.

Did the mods bumplock this?

I guess someone with powers sperged.

Obviously not with those exact words. But he wouldn't have to use them, since his main point (entertainment is a luxury, consumers aren't "owed" shit beyond the actual product) would still be valid. Especially today, when social media has made it too easy for people to give others grief over the dumbest shit.

Holy shit.

I actually thought Kolsha Liket's letter was an amusing and loving plea for Willingham to do the art for the book again, not the obnoxious bit of entitlement Willingham seemed to take it as.

I miss old lettercolumns.

You mean 'Fables' Bill Willingham. WTF?

>would later gain fame for torturing and dismembering Spoiler (she got better), and maintaining the racial purity of the Justice Society by getting rid of Mister Terrific 2.

I was always glad that he didn't ran Fables with progressive shit but I always envision him as second wave feminist at most.

Well… you learn something new every day.

What did you expect when you named the thread "Dead art nigger repository", it screams of bait.
