Methinks Grant isn't a fan of Hollywood Frank. Perhaps DC will rethink
Miller's latest bad idea and cancel this book.

One can dream...

Have fun,

how about the sinister Al Qaeda mastermind up against a hungry
Hannibal Lecter! For all the good it's likely to do. Cheering on a
fictional character as he beats up fictionalized terrorists seems like
a decadent indulgence when real terrorists are killing real people in
the real world."


-Grant Morrison on Frank Miller's upcoming Holy Terror, Batman,
interviewed at Newsarama.

It does seem silly, but not especially worse than Captain America
putting Al Qaeda in the same category as AIM and HYDRA.
