My favorite expy is Green Arrow, who is Batman.

Does DC ever explain why Earth is such an attractive target for intergalactic invaders and stuff? Maybe it's asking too much for a reasonable explanation of why some alien would come specifically to earth to gently caress it up, given no one really wants to read stories with less at stake because they take place on planets and to cultures entirely fictional instead of in, say, New York City.

One recent explanation was the White Lantern entity is on Earth so it's like a beacon to bad space dudes.

Another explanation has been that Earth is uniquely filled with superpowered people (because of the meta gene), so the aliens see it as a challenge.

Frank Cho needs to get decked by a guy in a black hoodie.

While that's true, Cho's gimmick came from the Manara Spider-Woman butt pose.

That's the best kind of propaganda.

It's 110% Superman, something nobody sane could argue is a bad thing to do, and it still makes the other guys look like morons.

He's also the guy pushing the narrative that all of Marvel's editors have no experience in the industry and are diversity hires spinning out of the milkshake thing.

Even worse, he likes Dan Slott.

I think the creators hitting back are making a mistake. I understand wanting to defend yourself and call out morons like this but at the same time all you're doing is raising their profile. Just ignore these small time idiots and it's better for everyone. I'd never heard of this shitheel before this very moment and though I agree with what Tynion is saying here I never would have heard this garbage without him responding to it. I'm sure there are others who also hadn't heard of it and at least some of those people are so stupid they believe all that poo poo and now you've just made more followers for these people. Again it feels good to tell someone like that to gently caress off but does that offset possibly exposing this brand of stupidity to more people that might embrace it? I don't really think so.

It looks like it's because of this? Others in the industry adding similar sentiments and support.

I don't know who this is* but someone linked it in Discord earlier and it seems appropriate.

Remember what Cap says**: Always Punch a Nazi

That looks like Richard Spencer, the leader of the alt-right (*cough* neo-nazi *cough*).

That's Spencer in the video yeah, I mean the guy tweeting it out. I didn't review his feed or anything.

I have no pics of Ollie's rear end. Mine is in my locker at work as I had to move a ton of poo poo around after work and didn't want to risk damaging it.

I got you.

Bendis had all this stuff about what Cyclops would do and who he would become and then because he's Bendis he took too long doing other stuff and never actually got there.

Nothing Cyclops did at all made him a Hitler Monster, and he never even had a revolution. SHIELD wanted to assassinate him for... showing up to help mutants occasionally?
