There's a person who's entire gimmick is posting long, philosophical sounding life affirmations on top of keanu reeves images to facebook and passing them off as real things he said. I don't think they're doing it as a joke, either.

The assertion that half of all Amazons are trans women is also absurd, since babies born with penises are not obviously cis or trans at time of birth and a big deal was made about Diana's maybe-brother being born male.

It'd also defeat the whole purpose of the trans rights movement if they just indoctrinated everyone into being whatever their idea of a girl is. The whole point is that gender assignment at birth is bullshit, "everyone is a girl regardless of genitals!" is missin the point hard. Once contact with other civilizations started, you'd end up with trans men who were born with dicks. Huh, I kind of want to write a speculative fiction story like that now.

I guess this is the only way you can get a solo book published for an LGBT Marvel character: bring it to Image instead. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/image-comics-plans-new-all-911716

This seems like they're just wanting to get sued. I do hope maybe now that Gillen is finishing Darth Vader that he and Rocafort do a Miss America solo series.

Does Marvel give residuals to creators when their characters are used? e: and moreso when they're in a solo?

You could at least post the Simon/Kirby Fighting American that was created as a direct reaction to Atlas's relaunch of Captain America in the 50s. EDIT: (Sorry for the double post.)

I've been reading a lot of Brubaker and Darwyn Cooke stuff lately and along with this talk of Moore's work, it got me thinking. I've enjoyed literally everything I've read by both Brubaker and Cooke, and I can't think of any other writers for whom that holds true. My other favorites, like Lemire or BKV, either have particularly crappy books or else have a noticable hole in their game (BKV's inability to finish books without going off the rails). So... Who are the creators who can do no wrong by you?

I haven't read any bad Rucka or Tom King or Al Ewing but their portfolios aren't quite as large as BKV or people like that so maybe I just haven't read their bad stuff?
