Will this cover rehabilitate Frank Miller's rep?

That wasn't a complete final thought: He looks like death warmed over but he didn't look anything like that as a younger man.

Miller's face in that photo is performing some kind of weird perspective illusion where he appears to be looking in two directions at once. Human cubism.

To be honest he looks way better than he did four/five years ago, his declining health was pretty evident back then.

goddamn who knew That Yellow Bastard as a self portrait

Ma, look at what Hollywood did to my boy!

I didn’t read it that way... he seemed to be putting the blame squarely on Miller; and partly on himself, for not “teaching” Miller better (as if it were his responsibility somehow, as a “father figure”).

Xpost jesus I’d forgotten how bad that photo was. He does look better now!

yeah I read it more as "know the difference between yourself, a person like any other person, and your work, which may well be powerful & have a profound effective on people" - Adams would know, he's a guy whose work had people deifying him early on, but in all fields there's people who really soak that up and get very lost in their own heads as a result.

Adams would know

Again...
