      I hate trying to read this. Not just because of the dialogue, the physical setup is making me angry and it feels designed to frick with comic readers. It’s like they wanted to monologue like in a book, but they realized midway that it’s a comic that demands visuals

        Now I’m angry at the dialogue too. More “lol, how wacky” dreck.

        It’s more akin to a picture book than a fricking comic where you need to read a page then Look at the picture. That’s baby shit, it’s not dynamic!

            That’s so egregious. I wouldn’t be surprised if she were a self insert that reads The Very Hungry Caterpillar. I can’t stress how wrong the presentation is for comics.

          This is a problem a lot of comics have. Things have happening in a short timeframe but you wouldn't know if you didn't read because it was only said instead of shown.

          Like even some serious shit like a comrade of MC getting shot and killed while MC is fighting too, then he realises what has happened and gets angry but all of this happens in the same fricking panel. So you see MC fighting and maybe the friend getting shot in the background, but instead of dedicate a whole panel to every action it's all crammed into one and you have some shitty dialogue like "ARRGH take this!" "AAAH" "Oh no! They killed my friend, you will pay for this villain!" ALL in the same fricking panel.

          It's not like books, it's worse than books because contain more than bareboned descriptions and they are easier on the eye too, because you don't have to switch between text mode and image mode all the time while reading. With comics like these you read a textwall, have to jump to the next bubble with the next textwall etc. until you can look at the picture again and get what's going on.
          It's a chore, at least to me. I love books but I hate wordy comics that take the bad parts from books and comics and mix them together while ignoring the good parts.

          Add to that that many comics just look boring as hell. When I look at

          The book is a goldmine of what not to do.

          I lose all interest on an instant. Literally just a person talking and sitting. It's not even well colored or well drawn to make it good-looking at least. It just oozes boredom even before you read the monologue.

      The thing is, if they played it straight it wouldn't really matter. There are like 1000 other issues that have done the same story better than nips can so I doubt they those stories are "more memorable", not saying that these are memorable either.

      This is way fricking better presentation. Note (right to left) first panel starts with joker talking and the second dialogue bubble brings your eyes over to Harley. Then in the second panel, they’re talking and the baby gets between the second and third dialogue bubble to emphasize his point about keeping her hands clean. That’s good presentation. Meanwhile:

      The book has 2 self-inserts, One of them straight-up tells her she's been working-out wrong her entire life.

      MORE PICTURE BOOK SHIT!!! Frick you! Tiny, yet long-winded dialogue you have to read BEFORE looking at the whole thing. Frick these narcissists that think the art is gonna get in the way of their monologues

        Frick my anus, not to toot my own horn, but I think MY POST has better presentation. Notice how the colon stops your eyes for a bit before getting to the second paragraph as a prelude to my b***hing? That’s at least something compared to this comic’s half-assery. Comics are meant to combine dialogue with their art, not just have worthless b***hes complain about their jobs.

        a lot of comics have that problem where they just cram a ton into speech bubbles instead of trying to convey dialogue in the most concise way possible in coordination with the paneling structure.

          Yeah, but even then, better comic book people had something to SAY. The She-Hulk page shit you showed me is just one point: “Look at how wacky my Job area is!” One long drawn-out direction.

          The Batman baby comic, while simple, has multiple points come across in two simple panels.

          >Joker’s concerned
          >Harley wants to touch Babybat
          >Joker notes the dangers of germs
          >it would be sad if such a cute baby died
          >Harley relents

        With manga the artist draws the speech bubble onto the page itself so they know how to make it flow. With comics, the letterer has to try and fit the words on to the panel that has already been drawn so it can look more sloppy. Still bad looking but there's a possible reason.

    TDK look was fine for TDK, but anyone who keeps drawing "black patterns around the eyes Joker" after it is a fricking hack.

    It's a cheesey way to make him look edgier as if he was in some facepainted rock band or Juggalo group, and it actually worked for Heath in the way they did it, but it's the kind of thing that should have died with Heath.

    Now a little bit of black that looks more like eyeliner or something to emphasize the eyes like TAS is fine, but huge black splotches or shapes? Nope. Same with the giant painted on smile that goes up his cheeks, it's better when it's just lipstick.
