	CBLDF- Articles: Hate Mail: Comic Strip Controversies On View in San Francisco
		Hate Mail: Comic Strip Controversies takes a look at contentious comics by some of the top cartoonists of the last 30 years, including Scott Adams (Dilbert), Berkeley Breathed (Bloom County, Outland), Frank Cho (Liberty Meadows), Lynn Johnston (For Better or For Worse), Aaron McGruder (The Boondocks), Wiley Miller (Non Sequitur) and Garry Trudeau (Doonesbury).
		Trudeau's depiction of an unmarried couple in bed together and his series on AIDS will be on display as well as Breathed's condemnation of animal testing and Wiley Miller's recent controversial comments on religion and the church.
		The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund was founded in 1986 as a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of First Amendment rights for members of the comics community.

	COMICON.com: why do most comic critics hate superhero comics?
		Comics are an entire medium covering a wide range of genres so many reviewers feel that they ought to highlight as many of those different ones as possible.
		English-language comics criticism has a dearth of great writing in general -- to co-opt that failure to dismiss the crazy notion that if supercomics were better made, maybe they'd get better reviews is disingenuous, even for a supercomics apologist like yourself.
		Comics are more than that, comics should be better than that, and the insane and childish screamings of those with the vested interest in keeping them childish is infuriating to the rest of us.

	COMICON.com: why do most comic critics hate superhero comics?
		Pekar's writing on comics I don't like in general, although I prefer it to Thompson's, plus it's interesting to read him as a working writer in comics who is constructing his own artistic viewpoint.
		Comics fans who read only superheroes are either (a) unwilling to, (b) afraid to, or (c) not bright enough to articulate their reasons for liking superheroes in any intelligent reason.
		Comics have been shunned because 90% of the mainstream output has sucked for years, and many of them are actually below the intelligence-level of the average American...and that's low.

	Heath Ledger Hates Comic Book Movies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		He didn't say that he hated comic books, he just was saying how he never liked the way comics were translated onto film (which is a valid point because there are a lot more lousy comic book movies than there are good ones), which is an honest answer that I can apreciate from him.
		He hates comic book movies as much as a lot of people, but when he saw Batman Begins he was very excited about the franchise and the way Nolan was handling it.
		Not a good idea to say he hates comic book movies but lets face it....when you put together a list of comic movies that are truily great pieces cinema and ones that are pure mindless drivel the mindless drivel list would totally eclipse the list of films that are actually good.

		HATE is the body of work that Peter Bagge is best known for.
		Beginning in 1990, HATE follows the trials and tribulations of a single young "slacker" of the semi-autobiographical Buddy Bradley and his many "slacker" pals.
		HATE came out quarterly throughout the 1990s, first as a BandW comic, and later in full color.

		Or, at the very least, return comic books, which are the only things that really matter to them anyway, to the condition they were in when they were children.
		To examples come immediately to mind: “I’d like that Authority comic if it weren’t for the fags” and “I can’t believe they made Firestorm a colored kid.” And when their statements are challenged, super-hero fans seem surprised that anyone could think that they actually meant the things they said.
		Yet the “Golden Age” is considered to be the greatest period of all time for super-hero comics because the children who read them at the time grew up to write the histories and early critical studies of comic-books.

	Cartoonist Peter Bagge Interview
		I liked the Batman and Superman TV shows, but DC comics were very dry and dull to me, and with Marvel I HATED that `to be continued' soap opera crap.
		It seemed like any time the comic changed-moving Buddy from cool Seattle back to suburban New Jersey, moving from fl and white to colour-everybody was pissed, and called you a sellout.
		Most of the HATE relationships seemed to be built on dysfunctional co-dependence-Mom and Pops Bradley are joined together more by habit than by affection-and yet the series ends on a very optimistic note, despite the `cynical' tone Buddy and the series are known for.

		His most famous work was the realatively long running Hate comic which ran for several years from Fantagraphics (home of many such critically praised but not particularly successfull comics).
		For the most part, Hate concerned the wanderinigs of Buddy Bradley, a slacker who began in the Seatle grunge scene and eventually moved to the midwest.
		The Hate Annual is really aimed at someone who likes comics, but is not neccessarily a comic fan.

	The Daily Ping: Signs You're a Budding Font Nerd (10/24/2004)
		I think hating Comic Sans is the mark of both a nerd and a snob - a nerd to recognize it (ie, see it enough) and a snob to hate it.
		Comic Sans is horrific only because there are so many other good comic book-like fonts out there.
		Comic Sans was a very trendy font for a period of time, and it became so overused that most type aficianados cringe when they see it.

	Peter Bagge's Hate (and other Neat Stuff) \| Interviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		With 20 issues to date, Hate has become not only one of the most successful alternative comics in history, but is also becoming one of the most successful comics period.
		The comic follows the exploits of one Buddy Bradley, who for 15 issues lived the quintessential slacker life in Seattle, Washington, where Bagge and his wife have lived for the last 10 years.
		But your comic transcends that perception: a Hate fan is just as likely to read Cerebus as he is to read no other comics at all.

	Ink 19 :: Peter Bagge
		For a few fortunate souls, a certain comic called Hate, despite the misgivings of its title, offered a ray of hope that they were not alone amidst the stoners, slackers, and ne'er-do-wells of the twenty-nothings.
		Hate illustrated that there was someone out there who if not fully understood them, at least sympathized with them.
		Peter Bagge is quick to express his disdain for any debate on the validity of comics as art, and chooses to focus more on the task at hand: to entertain.

	Yet Another Comics Blog: Why I Hate Free Comic Book Day (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The stores are required to purchase the comics that they give away (at a discount, mind you, but they still cost money).
		Now a more enlightened comic store (and there are some out there!) will see FCBD as an opportunity to have a variety of different comics available to give away, both to bring new customers into the store, and to interest current customers in new comics they might not have tried before.
		While it was running, the comic based on the animated Batman was one of my favorites, the this new series saw the return of Ty Templeton as writer, which really had me excited.

		Although a TV version of Peter Bagge's Hate comic is starting to look unlikely, a movie adaptation may be in the future.
		Comic creator Peter Bagge told Comics2Film that recent internet stories that he is in talks with HBO about a Hate animated show are inaccurate.
		#216 informs us that recent reports that MTV is disinterested in an animated series based on Peter Bagge's Hate are "a bit exaggerated." Zen's sources at Fantagraphics told the online entertainment magazine that MTV is very interested in such a show, they are just not interested in investing in or producing the show.

		(also speech bubbles or word balloons) are a graphic convention used in comic books, strips, and cartoons to allow words (and much less often, pictures) to be understood as representing the speech or thoughts of a given character in the comic.
		There is often a formal distinction between the balloon that indicates thoughts and the one that indicates words spoken aloud: the bubble that conveys subjective thoughts is often referred to as a thought balloon.

		But what I hate worse are comics over three dollars that actually look interesting enough to buy.
		What I hate even more than a three dollar comic that looks interesting enough to buy is one that’s good enough that I’m going to have to buy the next issue, therefore causing me to spend over three dollars on another comic book.
		If you really had any respect for indy comics, Dusty Star, comics in general, and even just plain ol’ “art”, you wouldn’t have maligned your own essay with such a thoughtless preamble, which only serves to further damage the chances of great new work emerging from behind the eclipse of the tired capes.

	Why People Hate Zachary Smith: A Study in the Psychology of Villains and American Morality
		The actor portraying him, Jonathan Harris, was dissatisfied with this version of the character, because he feared that such a character was doomed to death within the first few episodes of the show.
		Smith into a comic villain -- a tragic, bumbling, cowardly, lazy character with just enough good in him so that the producers of the show would not be justified in bumping him off.
		Because of this mentality, people want their bad guys to be bad and their good guys to be good, not to be left with the uneasy feeling of not knowing whether to like or dislike a given character.

	Comics Should Be Good: Where's the joy and majesty?
		What is happening in some superhero comic books these days is the attempt to shock the reader without worrying about the reaction, as Bill Willingham pointed out so stupidly when it was revealed that Leslie Tompkins was a murderer.
		Either you love superhero comics with a burning passion that supercedes all else, or you hate them and want each and every one of our four-color childhood icons dead.
		Conversely, there are plenty of Marvel and DC workhorses who have never wanted to do anything with their lives but write superhero comics, and the stuff they put out is boring as hell.

	read yourself RAW - Profile: Peter Bagge
		In the case of Peter Bagge, he walked away from the successful Hate comic at issue 30, only returning to Buddy Bradley and the cast of losers and slackers in a series of annuals.
		The result was Hate, a title used as part of his effort to ensure that the 1990's wouldn't go down in history as some mushy, brain-dead love decade.
		Bagge is not only one of the most distinctive cartoonists to come down the pike, he's hands-down one of the comic industry's best writers.

	Comic Book Resources - CBR News: 'Spider-Man' has a brand new Bagge
		Bagge is best-known for his indie-comic book "Hate," described by Bagge as "the partly satirical and partly auto-biographical adventures of a young misanthrope named Buddy Bradley." "Hate" debuted in 1990 and was brought to an end in 1998.
		I was as big of an outcast and misfit as the average comic reader -- and I loved MAD and other comic books and strips -- I never felt the need for the 'power fantasies' that superhero comics are supposed to provide.
		"Hate" continues to be published once a year under the title of "Hate Annual." Whereas in the past "Hate" focused almost entirely on its star Buddy Bradley, Bagge is exploring a wider variety of story ideas in the Annuals.

	Peter Bagge
		Bagge is probably best known for the ’90s comic book series Hate, which followed the exploits of the slacker ne’er-do-well Buddy Bradley (and managed to show probably the truest representation of Seattle during the “grunge” boom and bust).
		Bagge was also editing R. Crumb's Weirdo magazine, this family for the ages has its roots firmly planted in All In the Family's Bunker family and MAD magazine, with a healthy punk rock anger occasionally exploding.
		Hate Annual #5 features, as always, the latest installment in the life of Buddy Bradley, only this time he goes through a whole new set of drastic lifestyle changes – as well as a brand new (albeit accidental) make over!

		McCloud has published quite a few other comics, but he is known almost exclusively because of his ideas about comic and the way new media can be applied to visual storytelling.

	The Bradleys by Peter Bagge, ISBN 1560975768 And Tomahawk by David Poyer, ISBN 0312965613
		The Bradleys may be drawn in one of the most wildly cartoony styles in comics history, but they also feature the some of the most living and breathing charaters as well.
		These comics went on to inspire Bagge's legendary Hate comic book series, featuring an out-of-the-nest Buddy Bradley living in early 1990s Seattle; the title became the Nevermind to Bagge's Nirvana and the burgeoning alternative comics movement, with over one million copies sold and worldwide publicity.
		Today, Bagge pursues a variety of projects, notably his Hate Annual for Fantagraphics, Sweatshop for DC Comics, and a series of satires for Marvel Comics.
