A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.
Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.
There is only one rule:*
Comic Books is a no judgement zone.
You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.
If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.
* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(
I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

I appreciate how much of her statements were included as-is, but staying the article by labeling her initial comments as "hateful" is some pretty serious biais...
They also refused to include the statements she was fired for in the article to allow readers to form their own opinion
Guessing DC isn't releasing any statements regarding the hateful, violent rhetoric Kirk made a mint from like it would be good to kill trans people because his bronze age foreskin removal manual said to, fucking hypocrites. Sometimes it takes a firing to learn who has integrity to stand up for themselves, looking forward to see what she works on next.
All of these modern conservative influencers can easily have their personality disorders matched up with a DC villain -- although most of them are just the Riddler. And plenty of comic book story arcs bring up the question of how we should feel when someone dies when that person has done great harm. Hell, that's like the second most prominent theme in any Batman arc.
