"sjws" in media have been a thing as long as media has existed.

The difference is we remember the good stuff for being good, not woke. We forget the bad stuff simply.because it was bad.

When this current wave ends a new one will swell and artists will make art about some other issue/cause/etc.

Full Metal Jacket was political as you can get, but it's a damn fine movie, and still holds up near 40 years later. That 40 dollar cover is shit no matter what and will be forgotten in a month.
 
Wow...what a radical action Kurt. When you think of previous resistance groups like in France and elsewhere, they got nothing over you, tweeting away, voting occasionally and turning a blind eye to when politicians who's balls you'd wash with your tongue do the exact thing you pretend to be so solemnly against.
You basically summed why I will never take any of these REEEEsistors seriously.
 
It’s a new female-centered anthology series. My guess is that it’s a way for the executives to show they’re providing work to women while people like Hickman continue to hog the big name books.

TBH honest I have no idea why exactly Hickman gets jobs with his long overintellectualized crap (Infinity arc is editorial failure magnitude of which you realize only trying to read whole thing in proper order while juggling 3 TBPs at the same time and exist only because Hickman wanted to be cute with intersecting storylines), not to mntion how boring his shit is. Bbut the gist is correct.
And Fearless is again self congratulatory crap- contains 3 random stories about women by women, each is few pages long, book is 30 pgs long, will be continued in next issue.

I was actually excited when they gave Reed a beard. I guess I should’ve known it was really just to transform him into a soyboy.

Five regular editors plus two more to handle a 30 page book with three stories? This isn't as empowering as the feminist writers would like to think. Especially not with four men in management positions over them.

Pretty much what I expected.
 
I don't think this has been posted yet, but Reignbow the Brute (glad you are keeping "Brute" @FROG man, but no "Reignbro"? I thought you loved the 'bro'?) has a cover. The tag made me giggle, so I thought I'd post it.

I like the logo but the title has been stretched beyond the breaking point. The joke only works if the book is called "Rainbow Brute." Rain-bro Brute is clumsy sounding and Rainbow THE Brute is just as bad. I think the whole idea is stupid TBH––something that shouldn't be more than a two page joke. Also the tagline is stupid. This is what happens when boomers get ahold of memes.

Also, isn’t putting a soyboy jab on your cover getting dangerously close to being political/attacking your fans?

It does skirt the line I'd say, but I get the point of it since it looks very much like the standard Bad-Ass Dad is trying to raise his disappointment of a son to be more like him.

A very old story with real life examples.

Millie is one of those characters from the girl comics Marvel published in the 50s and 60s.
I guess you failed reading comprehention tests in lit class, didn't you?

Also I found my new PFP
I seriously thought you shopped this pic in PS, but I went back and realised Sue's face is mauled in original. Your cropping just made it obvious. This artis should have their drawing licence revoked fornjust this panel.

I stopped assuming gender when it comes to American baby naming practices after Paltrow called her daughter Apple, Kanye called North West and Reynold's firstborn daughter name is James after his father (poor kid). So I assume Sarah and Lauren must be male and CB stands for Claudia Bertha.

It stopped being funny joke and became an in joke that only die hard EVS' followers care about. I think it will age badly as much as the SJW stuff he tries to counter and will bring money now, but in few years will be nothing but weird indie thing nobody will really care about.

I doubt he thought as far as that regarding 'soy'. After all 'soy' is his brand with how much he reapeats that word in every video. (It's not 'anti-soy', it's 'soy'.)

Yeah, it's one of those things you pass by and you don't notice till it's pointed out. Sad, just sad. How long did they work on this comic, considering I've only heard about it now, and it's out... now?

In other news, MARVEL has been putting out these "True Believers" issues. I've been picking them up because it's nice to have reprints of old series. It's also amusing to me to go into the "new" section of my shop and instead of picking up the current run of these series, I leave the store with 20 different issues of classic runs. At $1 an issue it's hard to pass up. They've also put out the Facsimile editions which run a little more but are still interesting to get if you can't find the original prints.

In more news, Jane Foster is officially Valkyrie and has her own run again - making her... Cancer Thor/All-Mother/Valkyrie...I'll be interested in seeing how much this one sells. Jason Aaron and Al Ewing... Good luck boys.

I can finally say my LCS is the proud owner of shelf warmers Ignited issues 1 and 2. As they sit there, there are 6 copies of Issue 2 and 8 of issue 1. I will be checking back to see if they've moved.

And somewhere, there's a duck laughing hysterically.
I thought he was a goose.

I think I found why Doug is pissed. Ro got banned and WC is sperging the fuck out


EVS, you have got to distance yourself from these speds, they are fucking poison and doing you no favors right now.
