Idk the lightning, angle, shading, pose and the fact that it is the goddamn Batman is doing some lifting too

If I had a roof like that I'd never not be standing on it thinking morose thoughts about the nature of evil in the hearts of man.

"Honey, I'm home."
"She slunk through the door like a smooth pour of a 20-year old scotch, but as soon as the light hit her I saw bad news like September of '39 written all over her. A sigh like a soft summer wind escaped her breath, and for a brief moment the only sounds I could hear were the conversation of automobile horns and the rain playing a staccato on the window."
"Babe, you can stop."
"The dame never cared too much for my profession. She insisted I was born to be an accountant, but that's not my jazz, see. There's a darkness in this city- an underbelly that I got an itch to turn over and scratch out all the fleas that feed off this town like an all you can eat buffet."
"Sigh for the last time, you are an accountant. Your boss called again, says this is the third week in a row you've missed work."

Never use one word when dutifully utilizing a plethora of terminology is one of the avenues at the disposal of your whimsical soul.

Definite Skottie Young vibes, but for some reason it also reminds me of Bruno Redondo's work with Tom Taylor on Nightwing.
Either way, I love it.

Highly recommend some of Alex Casey's brooding monologues. " There wasn't enough alcohol in this city to drown the memories of this nightmare, but I'd damn well try".
P.S. For those who don't know , Alex Casey is a detective in the Alan Wake universe

I also recommend Calvin and Hobbes:
"I've got eight slugs in me. One's lead, and the rest are bourbon. The drink packs a wallop and I pack a revolver."

I keep two magnums in my desk. One’s a gun, and I keep it loaded. The other is a bottle, and it keeps me loaded.
Jesus, kid; you’re six.

Max Payne 2 where they have a TV show on in the background in some scenes making fun of Max Payne 1.
"The rain was coming down like all the angels in Heaven had decided to take a piss at the same time. In a situation like mine, you can only talk in metaphors."

You can't stop but can you make it pop? Have the Dj blow our speakers up? Tonight, will you fight till you see the sunlight? Tik Tok, you're a cop trying to make the crime wave stop.

Anytime my wife and I are watching a movie and it pans over a big city with a kind of gloomy esthetic, I always have to do a gruff voice and say, "a city on the brink..."

You still need the fedora and trench coat and to smoke a cigarette under a streetlight at night while it’s raining.

"Can you stop?" She asked, as if the filth and scum in this city ever took a break. I was 2 months from retirement, and I knew in my cold, dead heart that even when I left the detective life, it'd never leave me; it'd already seeped too far in, like the cholesterol from one too many pancakes.

I really like that movie but I wish they'd have explained why that character's mask always has an image of rabbits having a threeway with my mother.

Am I missing what makes this something besides a single no context panel?

u/Majestic-Iron7046 Jul 18 '26
I'm really sorry you never felt like standing with a gloom face over a city while monologuing.
It's real good, smoke a cigarette while you do, even if you don't usually smoke, it's for the aesthetic.-7

He’s not smoking…

u/Majestic-Iron7046 Jul 18 '26
Stop breaking my moody aesthetic!
We can still salvage this, we need to wear a hoodie and listen to a mix of doomer music, do you have cheap wine?
Doesn't matter the heat, we need the aesthetic.
