Sure, but he also proved something - he knows that Wikipedia believes - falsely - that webcomics aren't "notable," and that he can say anything about any webcomic and likely get it deleted.
The rules are fine as they are as long as the deleting admin actually applies them.
Yeah, but that can't be trusted anymore, either. Look at how the DRV is going for it. Look at how the DRV is going for Gregory Kohs. It doesn't matter if the rules are applied properly, it simply matters as to whether the rules are applied in a way that fits Wikipedia's biases in some subject areas.
I would be inclined to distinguish between Wikipedia's biases and the biases of some Wikipedians.
