Ruins comics forever
Pathetic.
Was that really what the killing joke was? Killing quality comics?
>saves comics forever
Unironically it kinda was. Batman and Joker's laugh at the end was about how neither of their personalities could ever change for the better/worse, meaning they were stuck repeating the same story forever - hence the rain returning the story to its first panel. It was Moore basically shitting all over how dull, repetitive and stagnant comics are becoming only for other writers to look at it and think he's saying Batman/Joker's stagnant, unchanging relationship is somehow a good thing.
What was the joke again?
The fault lies on other writers who missed the point. Killing Joke, Watchmen, TDKR, and others don't deserve to get called comics that ruined that ruined capeshit forever.
If it wasn't them, other ones would've taken their place, the future we live was always inevitable.
Mental patient jumps to the building next to the asylum, thereby freeing himself, but his friend is too scared to make the jump. He tells his friend to balance across the beam of his flashlight, but the friend refuses because "he'd turn it off when he's halfway across". Joker was saying that, like the inmate, the two of them are just too insane to ever make it to freedom. They'll never free themselves of each other because they can't change who they are.
if by "saves" you mean "gives Mark Millar the framework for Civil War"
One and only Joker backstory, I don't give a shit about your waifu getting shot plebs.

It's been a while since I read it, what did it do to CA?

Popularized the idea that he exists solely to get blown up
>saves DC from gatekeeping manbabies
>leave batkek to me
Batkek has already beaten toonforce
>ruins Wonder Woman forever

Did it really make any difference?
>I don't give a shit about your waifu getting shot plebs.
well said, Barbara as BG was no great loss
Watchmen is the only good comics, he ruined comics by showing they're all completely shit
Why does Zig Forums hate comics so much? At least the faggots on Zig Forums enjoy their books
Youre a child. TDKR is a better comic in art and writing. "N-no it isn't" you like plots not comics if you disagree. Go watch tv shows and read genre fiction.
Only casuals the "gatekeeping" because they like to talk out of their ass about shit they've never read. Even women/LGBT/non-white readers know this by now and realize they were used for a few years to claim gatekeeping is bad.
Gatekeeping would have saved us from the New 52 and could still save us from shills claiming Bendis and king are at their best.
Because those posts you quoted are Zig Forums shills
It's not that great.
These didn't ruin comics, they ruined me. I would have abandoned this hobby long ago if it weren't for these fuckers.
Regarding TDKR, the only worthwhile Batman comic after this was Batman: Year One. I've read every acclaimed Batman book from before and after, and while I enjoyed a good portion of them, these two entry-level comics are by far the best. By far.
It's not that great.
Watchmen and TDKR are both top material. You can prefer one or the other, because the approach to comics is different in each, but to say one is way better than the other is pure ignorance.
Why Does Alan Moore hate comics so much?
What was the comic line with Owlman?

Love this shit

A horny librarian getting off by dressing up as a vigilante and fighting crime ticks a lot of my boxes. But I liked her better as Oracle.
