Just read it. Art was pretty awesome on all the other pages. There was some pretty cool visuals that I've always enjoyed from this title.

Why is "Lisa Halloran" so familiar to me? I googled the name and she's a new character it seems. Is it a retcon or someone using an old character or movie name?

Man what is going on on comics twitter today?! HOLY! I always knew the stereotype of lovely MRA superhero nerd, but they are all coming out of the wood work and going full hog. Or am I just staring too close into the black hole that is "The General Public"

Man I was just talking about Steve Dillon's passing with someone and they reminded me Darwyn Cooke died, which I had completely forgotten about. This year is loving crazy.

I'm surprised he doesn't try and portray himself as leftist like all the idiots making videos about video games and feminism. I may hate minorities, gays and women, but I don't believe in God so that makes me the true liberal!

I agree with him. Certain people should NOT be allowed to read or create comics. What he doesn't get is that he is one of them.

Both Captains America books being written by Spencer are deeply political; Sam Wilson deals more with real-world modern politics, with Sam having to deal with institutionalized racism/the militarization of police/people insisting he step down as Captain America because he has opinions and is willing to publicly express them, while dealing with the fact that he's, for all intents and purposes, the most visible and famous black man in the world and the insane and unfair scrutiny he's being subjected to as a result. His enemies are usually exaggerations of real-world, politically aggravating societal issues like corporations performing legal but deeply unethical work, corrupt politicians working to depress the disadvantaged, a segment of militarized racists attempting to exact their own brand of justice on immigrants, and so on. Steve Rogers is more philosophically political, dealing with the appeal of fascism as a methodology one could openly subscribe to or how it lures people into thinking it's right or just, and the deeply broken brain chemistry that makes a fascist. It's timely mostly because of the Trump campaign, but it's more of a generally political take over a specifically political one like Sam Wilson. If anything, it puts a fine point on how incredible of an idea Captain Hydra was, because it forces readers to confront how horrifying and grotesque the thought processes and beliefs of people like Trump supporters are by having an icon of pure, noble American patriotism in its most beatific form say and think them. It ends up making readers think, really think, about what the gently caress one of the two major political party's candidate for president is saying, which obviously pisses off straight white male manbabies who can't stand to have their beliefs challenged.

The amount of tumblrcarers Super Upset that Nick Spencer calls them out for glorified slacktivism as he insists that the best way to support Cain/Mockingbird is by buying the comic is delightful.

WickedHate posted:Neither can I, but it sure is snazzy! Yeah, Av buying is kind of weird. I mean, I have no idea who gave me this redtext for instance, and I'm kind of scratching my head as to why. I mean, I get why I would inspire such loathing, but why this? Like, what was the context behind it? I've never stated any particular opinions regarding Spider-Man Reign, at all. Oh well, more money for Lowtax to keep these dead comedy forums alive, I guess. And I never could come up with a better alternative.

It would be way better if it was just the first two-four lines and "chum" instead of "bum".
