Verbally Abusive Monsters
We all know how awful it is when monsters attack us. But occasionally there is a monster that crosses another line and becomes verbally abusive before attacking. This is literally adding insult to injury and it is a horrible thing to do to someone.
A good example can be seen here in this excerpt from Marvel Comics' "BEWARE!" #1 from 1973. It shows a werewolf being very rude and insulting when disturbed in the middle of its poetry-reading session. The werewolf says "You Englishmen are all alike" and calls the hunter a "fool" and a "cad" and a "little man." "Shocking"is the only word for it.

yeah, i know that if someone interrupted me while i was reading (and i do that a lot) i would do more than yell at the person who did it. especially if they're pointing gun at me. i think the werewolf was pretty sensible about the whole thing.

Just because someone is rude doesn't mean you should be rude back,right? I am so glad we have comics that show us how to be ethical. And of course good people like crabapple to expound on such mysteries. |
