Trying to be offensive for the sole purpose of being offensive should always deem one the least offensive of offenders.

No controversy, no PR.

First it was the fascinating comic book art that caught my attention, ... Later, I began to read the stories, then the art and the stories came together, and it was magic.

Controversy is a last resort for the talentless.

There's nothing more boring than a rock'n'roll star. Someone who has been on the road for 10 years, expecting attention wherever he goes, drinking himself stupid, who is obnoxious, incoherent, uncreative, and has a massive ego. There's nothing more pointless.

This is almost always the case: A piece of art receives its f(r)ame when found offensive.
