For his 300th episode, Linkara of That Guy With the Glasses reviewed Frank Miller's comic Holy Terror. It's in 3 parts:

The graphic novel follows a "superhero" (and I use the term loosely) named the Fixer, who is a badly rendered Batman expy, as he fights terrorists after an attack on Empire City. Frank Miller did intend this as a propaganda piece, and was aware that it would probably offend a lot of people. Keep in mind that this was written long after Frank Miller went certifiably insane, so you should have some idea of what to expect. It was published several months after the death of Osama bin Laden, although it was conceptualized 5 years earlier.
I know it's a long review to sit through, but it's entertaining enough that watching it shouldn't be a chore. I would ask that you watch the whole thing before commenting, although if you don't have the time, that's okay.
What are your thoughts on the comic? What do you think about Linkara's commentary?
