Dawgstar posted:I just noticed how downvoted the Batwoman trailer is in completely unsurprising news. I'm going to guess the vast majority are indeed terrible perpetual basement dwellers that had also just left their scathing and largely misspelled review for Captain Marvel on Rotten Tomatoes, but there's also going to be some that just are disappointed they got such a poo poo actress playing what should be an awesome character.

There are so many terrible movies and shows with male leads and weirdly their trailers don't get so massively downvoted. Well, except A Christmas Story 2.

Complaining about Batwoman being infested with SJWs just shows that they haven't seen any of the other CW super hero shows.

I just don't see how I can properly appreciate a 30-year old collaboration between two master authors, adapted wonderfully to television without losing any of the charm or humor, if Pollution has lady-bits.

So have you ever thought that shoveling your legal tender with a white man in the center into the fireplace was just TOO productive? My goons, have I got a deal for you. https://twitter.com/renfamous/status/1134923606096580608

Vampirella has been around since the last 1969 and published in and off since then. She was out of publication from 1983 to 1997, when she was brought back, probably to cash in on the "bad girl" craze.

Maybe they were $20 from a store that was selling them for profit, but not from the comic company themselves.

Comic companies offered (and continue to offer!) tons of variant covers for "BUY 69 COPIES OF ASSBLASTER #420 AND GET 1 NUDE VARIANT COVER!" which comic shops will charge extra for. I've been quietly giggling to myself about a hero called 'ASSBLASTER 420' for a couple of minutes, thank you.

Oh I just had a flashback to people coming in and trying to sell Superman #75 with an earnest "Don't you know he dies in this one!?" The last comic I saw during my time at the store that was speculated heavily was the Obama Spidey issue, although there by the time the news was out we couldn't increase our orders of the first printing so people were essentially speculating on second printings and up. I don't know how that worked out for them. Probably not 'fund college' well.

Back up over $25 for months. The first printing of Obama ASM was upwards of $75 for a long time too. They did like 5 printings of it and I constantly had to tell people it was worth a buck or two. I don't miss dealing with back issue values and pricing.

Avenging Spider-Man #9 which featured the first appearance of Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel shot up in value after the movie came out. Take that SJWs! I literally was given that by the manager of my LCS.
