You can't give comic book people so much authority! They're not used to it and become power drunk!
Man, this is disappointing. He's been one of my favorite writers for years, and what he's said to have done is shameful.
I want it not to be true, but I know that's a pipe dream.
This hits me much harder than Gaiman or Ellis, who had that sort of cult of personality where you could kind of smell it on them. I never got that vibe from Brubaker at all.
"In one alleged incident, Brubaker pointed a working firearm at Noohu’s face and pulled the trigger, according to the lawsuit filed on Wednesday in California state court."
How is this not attempted murder?
