Some Random Ditko Objectivism


Charting one talented man's descent into darkest philosophy. Discuss.
First, a glimpse of what Rorschach might have been like before the kidnapping.

Second, one of the most classic straw man arguments, and one of those pages of Ditko that remind me of Jack Chick in the severity. And the utter idiocy of those who aren't the protagonist. For instance, this is how much a dick Mr. A is. He could have done both in the time of all this yappity-yap. And knows it.

I know you don't mean the following as awkwardly as it sounds, Steve, but still.

And here we see a Bushmilleresque misunderstanding of modern art. And this isn't QUESTION--this is Ted Kord, Blue Beetle. This is based on Ayn Rand's rather destructive limitation of art as a presentation of ideals. The assumption being that expressionist art and its ilk(which I like) were also presenting an ideal, but one of decadence. See the Nazis, Stalin and Mao for a remarkably similar take. Also, damn hippies.

Finally, the most philosophical mugging ever.

(c)Charlton and Steve Ditko.

To me it sounds like some lout continuously throwing up. Which coming from Al Jourgensen alone I can take. But that's because Ministry and RevCo have humor. And it's not exactly that anyway, more like a "devil voice."
