Frank Miller defends the black look:<BR/><BR/>“In tests — and we did several — the blue made the Spirit look like an unfortunate guest at a Halloween party,” he writes. “Going to black brings back his essential mystery, his Zorro-like sexiness. It also makes that red tie of his look very, very cool. So I made the call, with all respect to Eisner’s creation, and most importantly, to what I perceived as his underlying intention. It was an easy call for me to make. The Spirit dresses in black, and looks much the better for it. As I said, my desire was never to slavishly follow the rules of ’40s printing into campy oblivion, but to reintroduce Eisner’s creation, via modern technology, to our brave new world.”Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-80483272267151245062008-05-31T20:02:00.000-07:002008-05-31T20:02:00.000-07:00I've read a couple of reviews of this issue that m...I've read a couple of reviews of this issue that mention the tiny Batmen(actually, they might both have been from this site, but I can't be bothered with browser histories), but it looks like that might be more of a screwy-perspective Bat-crowd rather than a variable-size bat-crowd. The lower left Batman is largest, while the Wee little Batmenlets closest to Crane are smallest. I think he's seeing a huge crowd rather than several tiny Batmen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
