Got into a heated debate about Frank Miller's Dark Knight at a con in Austin last weekend
This guy kept insisting it was overrated and I snapped, bringing up panels from memory. Ended up standing there for 45 minutes arguing about panel layouts outside the convention hall, has anyone else had a comic debate spiral like that?

Dude, I just read this great piece breaking down Miller's use of the grid structure in those scenes, how the panels tighten up to match the rising tension. It really changed how I look at that whole second issue with the mutant leader fight. Thirty minutes flew by like nothing when I was arguing about the symbolism of the rain washing the blood off the sidewalk in those later pages.

@torres.blair I hear you, but sometimes a good debate just feels worth it, you know?
