I've been reading Giffen's Dr. Fate (1987). While I make no accusations, I have to wonder just what kind of chemicals the esteemed author/illustrator might have been ingesting.
It's so trippy it makes my brain hurt.
What about you? What have you read that makes you wonder about a creator's recreational habits?

I loved Gerber's Zauriel one-shot. He managed to take something Morrison created, and make it even trippier. Originally Posted by MajorHoy

Yes absolutely, Batman Odyssey was a cocaine-fueled fever dream set to paper. I have never seen anything like it before or since. Originally Posted by MajorHoy

I'm not familiar with this one, Googled, didn't see a summary so read a review. The review was funny, but I still have no idea what this story is about.Yes absolutely, Batman Odyssey was a cocaine-fueled fever dream set to paper. I have never seen anything like it before or since.
