Byrne on Moore & Brits

[JayzusB.Christ]

To be fair, JB seems to be in agreement with Knut about the pyramid thing.  He may be a gobshite but he's not thick

If his forum topics are owt to go by, then it Looks like Christmas has come early for Mr Byrne...

And so begins another Alan Moore thread

I'm genuinely curious. I know it's a common thing on the Byrne board to accuse Moore of hypocrisy when it comes to how his work has been treated by others. Anyone here able to cite or link to such a f'rinstance?

That Shakespeare's a rip- off, no talent hack compared to John Byrne.

The OP has a good point but those points by Byrne could easily apply to his work on Superman can't it?

[Eric Plumrose]

Hmm. Michael Roberts has just summed up my understanding of Moore's misprisals.

'I'd upset him by saying I thought his Swamp Thing had pissed on the Wein/Wrightson creation and has he wanted to do some existential bullshit, he should have done it with something else...'

Now why would anyone get upset getting told that nicely balance comment?

So what actually counts as originality for this guy? Oh and why is there never any mention of Halo Jones? Surely she sinks that argument? Or is she just a pastiche of Private Benjamin in space?

Byrne argues... with himself.

Priceless.

Is this for real?  The man gets more clownish by the day.  I think the poor man thinks about Watchmen more than Alan Moore does.
It's the season of good will though, so I'll point out how the chap has begun to show a bit of modesty and humility, including himself in the non-original writer category he puts Alan Moore and Grant Morrison in.

Maybe he has a bunch of alternate accounts to make it look like his forum has more traffic and he forgot to sign out and in under another account.
