>>104729566This is a frustrating, oft-repeted misconception. One that the pretentious contingent of Morrison fans subscribes to to feel special.
His books work on a number of levels. FIRST is accessibility. They're nearly all instantly accessible and work as surface level funny books. Then, you can get into other layers, semiotics and liter and metaphysics and whatever else. Really theres like maybe 2 projects where you really need to know his schtick or its too confusing. Otherwise anyone can read and enjoy em.
It may be that they're not as instantly, recognizably violent and font follow the modern. Template of. Characters talk. Then go into big battle while still quipping. Then cliffhanger, repeat.
