8 Comics Famous Comic Creators Don't Want You To Know About
2. 300/Sin City's Frank Miller (Big Guy And Rusty The Boy Robot)
Frank Miller is best known for his dark and edgy work, such as Sin City - a book that practically reinvents the term "noir", 300, and Batman: Year One, a direct inspiration for Batman Begins. But he's been a comic writer for a long time and at one point, he broke off and wrote something quite a bit different.
Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot is pretty much what it sounds like. The tale of a Big Guy and a boy robot (think Astro Boy, but American) who get together and fight against giant attacking monsters and robots. And no, there's no twist - it wasn't dark, it wasn't edgy, it was just popcorn fluff, leading to a Fox Kids cartoon adaptation.
Later, Frank Miller would write a comic book about Batman punching Al Qaeda in the face, so it's good to know this wasn't an abberration.
