Reply Subj: Kevin Smith and Mysterio Posted: Fri Oct 29, 2010 at 02:55:44 pm EDT (Viewed 19 times) | |||||||
> Actually, what happened was this- Kevin Smith asked Macchio if he could use Mysterio in Daredevil, and Macchio said yes. Then Byrne and Mackie asked Macchio if they could use Mysterio and Macchio said yes. Then Smith killed off Mysterio. Smith justified this by saying that Macchio never said he COULDN'T kill Mysterio. And yes, that was a ridiculous defense on Smith's part. > Brian Cronin discussed the whole mess a while back on Comics Should be Good. I usually read that column, but somehow missed that one. Wow, that really makes me think a lot less of Smith, I'd always heard it that he had permission to kill Mysterio, and Macchio forgot this. Knowing this, it makes the Mackie/Byrne team's intent to just ignore it all and bring Mysterio back a lot more justifiable. > If I was writing Fantastic Four, and I asked the editor of Captain America if Cap could appear, and I had Cap rape a woman, would it be fair to say that the editor of Cap gave his permission? Of course not. I'd like to think that kind of "taking extreme liberties with portrayal or usage of a guest-star character" would never happen, but it's probably only a matter of time before we see something equally stupid as that. | |||||||
