i think ADHD being a form of higher evolution is an interesting theory. grant morrison thinking he is more highly evolved because he has ADHD is a less interesting theory.

morrison is no genius, in my opinion. i would attribute most of the greatness of the book to mckean, especially after reading the original "script" in the back of this book. morrison says, "According to Len Wein's original WHO'S WHO entry, Arkham died singing "the Battle Hymn of the Republic," but for some reason I got confused and had him belting out "The Star Spangled Banner" instead. Let's face it, the guy was a nut, he might as well have been singing "Hello Dolly!"

good god, morrison. "Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord" makes a helluva lot more sense in a book centered around the themes of death and rebirth than "O say can you see..."

and then he just writes it off because "the guy was a nut" even though the other major theme of the book is that insanity is sanity and vise versa.

ugh.

mckean did a wonderful job with the art, though. a lot of it isn't really my style, but still admirable. i love how the joker's hair and nails have a mind of their own.
