Hes not a misogynist. he just writes some weird stuff. Nothing more than that. I agree with Christopher Moonlight, Sim is not someone worthy of being a target. There are actual evil humans out there not just some guy who voices opinions that probably arent all that different from a lot of males. Not this attack on Sim again.

Misogynists are "the lowest, subhuman form of life"? Actually, I think that would be child molesters. Meanwhile, Dave throws out the "feminist" as if THEY'RE the "lowest, subhuman form of life" and nobody's supposed to react to THAT? Come on.

It's definitely my favorite comic movie since it had the furthest distance to go. It adapted a D-list comic character and made him cool, plus it's a great vampire film.

I've always thought that this whole Dave Sim thing was very over blown. Don't get me wrong. The man is odd, but far from evil. I have come into contact with what I believe to be the lowest, subhuman forms of life and they are very scary, vile, evil people who I never want to see again. Attacking people like Sim for their point of view seems petty in comparison. If you really want to make the world a better place, it's the truly evil people you'll want to go after, but that's not a task to take lightly. Nor is it one you can ever walk away from once you start. It takes more guts and backbone then I have, but I won't substitute fighting evil with arguing petty ignorances on the internet. If you disagree with Sim, fight him by living (what you feel is) a better way then he does, and the people around you will pay it forward. It's a lot less work and computer time out of your day. :) “Is it possible to think that Dave Sim is not the lowest, subhuman form of life in our society and still think he is a misogynist?”
