Talk:Holy Terror (graphic novel)

Announcement date / Title inspiration

Article currently states that Miller "announced the graphic novel during a panel ... in 2006." However, in the book Eisner/Miller -- published May 2005 -- Miller briefly mentions a new superhero project, which a footnote then refers to as Batman: Holy Terror. (See page 49.) No real specifics are given, but the mere fact that Miller was working on a graphic novel called "Holy Terror" was apparently made public no later than that.

PS: This was briefly discussed in "Archive One" of this Talk, but are we positive that Miller was in no way inspired by Batman: Holy Terror? H3G3M0N (talk) 13:44, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

For the record, Holy Terror was the original title for the Dark Knight Returns, so this could be anything. Friginator (talk) 22:17, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Re-added Lee quote

In the past, a Stan Lee-quote on the subject has been deleted on the grounds that it's “useless“, because Lee is neither a Batman-artist or connected to DC in any way (at the time, Holy Terror was still a “Batman“-project). Yes, Lee is neither connected to Legendary Comics nor Frank Miller, also.

But barring Stan Lee from commenting anything comic-related is just preposterous. Of course, if somebody speaks about something he is not involved in or has any expertise, that's probably irrelevant. But when the Pope speaks about the Islam, when Bob Dillon talks about death metal, when Pele talks about Manchester United - that's always relevant.

The same goes for Stan Lee commenting a work from Frank Miller. I re-inserted the quote.

P.S.: I also removed the category Islamophobia in the United States. Regardless of what some critics feel the book may or may not be about, the protagonist of “Holy Terror“ fights explicitly against (islamic) terrorists, not the Islam or muslims.
