    Default CBR: Millar Makes No "Nemesis" of DC

    This seems like something of a non-story, just because name me a character that isn't blatantly ripped off of another one?


    But then never underestimate Millar's ability to get press.

    Trussed-Up Hooker: Blueberry are my favorite!

    Exactly, and you can bet he's loving every minute that this non-story is getting his project more press. Millar is the Salahis of comicdom, and he plays comic news sites such as CBR like a fiddle.

    I like Millar's Ultimate work, but the guy is really a blowhard.

    If everyone celebrated his work and took no offense.

    Millar wouldnt know what to do. (sans Money of course)

    And again, just like with "Kick-Ass", Millar puts up an auction during a financially difficult time for myself. Grr...

    Asterix outsold Kick Ass considerably last decade, with an average of five million sales for each volume in the series.
