You know, like a lot of the hard left, SJW idiocy, this didn't have to turn into a fucking disaster.It’s always nice to see a train wreck:

Turns out Mockingbird was canceled at Issue 3, they just let Cain finish her arc. If they hadn’t let Cain finish that arc, this travesty wouldn’t be part of Marvel canon.

You’re probably wondering: “How bad was Issue 3?”

Am I reading this right, or is Chelsea saying that they managed to churn out only one script in September 2017, sat on her ass for the rest of the time, and only in the last 6 months decided to finally get back to work on the rest of the issues? And only managed to churn out 3 more scripts? And she has the nerve to ask "Why would they cancel my book???"
It's also rich that she tries to play off the Mockingbird shitstorm as being coordinated "anti-Mockingbird harassment" when the reality was that it was really just her bitching at legit rape victims for not fawning over her ret-conning Mockingbird from a woman who killed her rapist in self-defense to a murdering adultress, and then blocking them when they proved to have more knowledge of the character than she did.
Jesus, my Misogy-meter just blew up. It's gone... and so is my hand with it.
"Mr. Mouse, I don't feel so good....."
Wow, he can suck his own cock for a really long time without coming up for breath, can't he?
Because it's a threat. Despite Quesada going on a three day tirade against CG and DnC in particular, while excusing or ignoring everything that the anti side has done. Here is Gail going 'I'm not saying Joe Quesada is CG, but...' Marvel didn't give popular characters / books to unknown talent, the talent had to prove themselves first on smaller properties. Gail is implying this is due to sexism or racism rather than merit. Now they give books to people who walk in off the street and the sales are telling. If Marvel goes back to a merit based system then Gail and cronies are going down kicking and screaming, they will absolutely drag Marvels name through as much mud as possible and Disney wont like that at all.
It's also a ploy I noticed a lot of proto-nuMarvel "creators" use to try and present themselves as being these wise, business-savvy gurus who know how to fix the ills of the industry. All you gotta due is hire them (or perhaps in this case, keep them hired) and watch as these bold, new, and most importantly young demographics start pouring in to support your business for years to come. It's why they always need to feel the need to paint every critical and financial failure as being caused by some sort of obsolete element in the industry, and once it's removed then those sales will definitely start pouring in. Just as soon as they stop listening to those damn CGs who want Marvel to "play it safe" by not replacing every character with an inferior version.
I stopped going to scans_daily when it became a common occurrence for the mods and readers to decry "OMG abuse!!!" every time characters were even a little bit snarky at each other, and would waste hours trying to psycho-analyze every obvious joke or off-hand detail as being indisputable proof of the writer's lack of moral fiber. Even on the occasions when there was some merit to their criticisms, it was still obnoxious to have to sift through the unneeded virtue-signalling commentary just to read some pirated comics. At least read comics online has the sense to not sprinkle their useless hot takes between updates and just give you the damn comic.
