Of course, I'd been taking it as largely fictional adopted personas but it doesn't make it any less insulting to those they were slagging off, it may even make it worse as they didn't just come up with it when out boozing but actually collaborated with it afterwards. I suspect Pat Mills has killed people for less, with just a withering stare... 
Frankly I can see why Alan Grant was so upset by Millar. If I'd invited someone to stay at my house and tried to give them some advice and then saw this I'd be pretty hurt too, even if it was "fictional".
Still I won't slag him off too badly, I did enjoy Red Son and... um... well if he hadn't created Canon Fodder then we wouldn't have gotten Kek-W's second series with Chris Weston's wonderful art (that Zeppelin emerging from the cigarette advert is an image that sticks with me to this day [in a good way, not like the opening scenes of "Feed". Brrrr])
