That makes sense to me, I guess. Still not sure where the deep seething hatred would come from based on that. I've certainly seen other writers (like Dan Slott, for example) get just as defensive. So it still seems a bit extreme to me.
Miller I get, because you can at least see the clear sexism there. In that case I totally understand why a lot of people can't tolerate it or resent the idea of people praising his work (even if I don't necessarily agree that the sexism overshadows other aspects of his work that are interesting).
The Bendis hatred just surprised me. That's all.
But I guess to each their own. Thanks to the commenters trying to clear it up for me. :)
