Alongside his Saturday Night Live cast member Seth Meyers, Bill Hader wrote a comic called “Spiderman: The Short Halloween,” and is himself a comic book reader. Yet his comic book nerd-dom might stretch farther than his partner. He put out a simple, yet significant message in defense of free speech of comics, The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. It’s an organization that sets out to make sure that comic book writers can put out pretty much whatever they want under the First Amendment. That’s all fine and good, but perhaps they should have limited his involvement in the film “Year One.” That film was a travesty.
