== Ellipses within brackets? == 

 I'm concerned about this paragraph: 

 This is similar for Adi Granov: "My first official introduction to the character occurred a year prior to Extremis. [...] Upon reading the script, I realized how realistic Warren's approach was to the story. [...] When illustrating the book I wanted my art to mirror the realism in Warren's writing [...] I felt that Warren wrote a story that's a sort of techno-thriller action story and I wanted the art to reflect this. [...] I saw Iron Man as not just a superhero in a suit; rather he is a pilot or weapon. To me, the Iron Man armor is more akin to a jetfighter than it is to an outfit. 

 Look how ugly that is! And it's all the fault of those ellipses within brackets. 

 Here is my question: Is that even a legitimate thing? Or is it something that developed on the fucking Internet, as a sort of over-compensation? I don't recall ever seeing "[...]" in a newspaper article; "..." always seemed to suffice. (Personally, I prefer the dots be spaced out . . . but as good as it looks, it doesn't catch on.)
