Re: Now, really...
I can't speak for everyone, but all plot considerations aside, I could never truly like DKR because I find the art hideous. I have issuses with the plot too, but for me, that's what it boils down to. Even this bits I liked, I couldn't really enjoy because, to my eyes, the art is ugly.
I always thought that the story wasn't meant to be liked. That we were meant to take it as a warning, not be entertained by it. This was a comic book attempting to be literature. I leave the speculation on the success (or not) of the attmept to others as well as arguments of the literary merits of the work.
