Why AI Can't Master the Art of Comics, According to Matthew Rosenberg

In a recent interview, comic book writer Matthew Rosenberg (known for If Destruction Be Out Lot from Image Comics) explained why generative AI fundamentally fails to understand the language of comics. Rosenberg contrasted the work of legendary creators like Jack Kirby and Will Eisner with the 'soulless' output of AI, arguing that the medium's unique visual storytelling—rooted in human emotion, sequential logic, and artistic voice—cannot be replicated by algorithms. The interview, featured on the Cryptid Creator Corner channel, underscores a growing debate about AI's limitations in creative fields that rely on deep cultural and narrative intuition.
