					<description>Considering that fact that Mark Millar is (unfortunately) one of the biggest names in American superhero comics right now, the fact that he can't stand being criticized by Graeme McMillan reminds me a lot of when James Cameron took out a full-page newspaper ad to attack Kenneth Turan for giving a negative review of &lt;i&gt;Titanic&lt;/i&gt;.  I mean, what the hell, dude?  If you're &lt;i&gt;that&lt;/i&gt; successful, and you &lt;i&gt;still&lt;/i&gt; can't stand people saying negative things about you, then the problem is not &lt;i&gt;them&lt;/i&gt;, but &lt;i&gt;you&lt;/i&gt;.

And once again, the term &quot;stalker&quot; is hilariously misused in the context of the Internet.  Oh noes, Graeme quoted Millar's posts, from Millar's message board, which Millar only created to promote his own work and to get more people to notice him in the first place!  And that's &quot;stalking&quot; &lt;i&gt;how&lt;/i&gt;, again?  It's like the women who appear in the &lt;i&gt;Girls Gone Wild&lt;/i&gt; videos - if they're 18 or over, they have every right to take their tops off and flash their boobs for camera crews, but they &lt;i&gt;don't&lt;/i&gt; have a right to complain about being &quot;exploited&quot; afterwards, since &lt;i&gt;they're&lt;/i&gt; the attention whores who chose to expose themselves to the public.</description>

					<description>&quot;This could be as big as Rosie versus The Comb-Over.&quot; 

Now come on Alan, that would be just sad and wrong. I wouldn't wish that on either of these guys. Of course, now that I've said this, Mark is really thinking about how interesting that might be for him. :)</description>

					<description>I still haven't forgiven Millar for the &quot;Orson Welle's Batman&quot; hoax.

					<description>Poor Mark Millar. So much money, so little to do.

This could be as big as Rosie versus The Comb-Over.</description>

					<description>Well, having those reviewers that hate you as a creator just means you are doing something right. So, write on Mark!</description>

					<description>If Millar thinks McMillan is unduly harsh to his work, the guy should never read the comics reviewers over at AICN. They hate his guts.</description>
