I'm not even going to argue, some of y'all will find a way to dislike literally anything.
Carrying on then, how great was Fulcrum at being this comic's Buzz Killington? Even has the chin.
And yet there’s plenty that will like it souly for being James Roberts. Plenty of people who will put on rose tinted glasses and act like nothing is wrong because it’s their favorite book and refused to believe there can be anything wrong with it.
But Roberts has been like this before. He does tend to tell more than to show sometimes especially since his books are more about interpersonal relationships rather than something bombastic. So it could be that people like him because of this different writing technique and while the parts one dislikes about his writing are made more obvious in this issue, this same aspect could be loved by others and thus they dont mind at all what they get in this issue.
The author is not for everyone, but thats why I think he is so beloved. Its kinda like me and David Lynch. That director is clearly not for everyone, but some people dont mind when he goes full on Lynch!
