It's because they don't actually read any of these comics that they complain about, or in some cases, comics at all.

You could say they are... Fake Geek Guys.

John Ostrander is on there too. However the cheapskate only gave twenty.

To be fair, we are talking about comics writers here.

This is what my face looked like upon seeing Salvador loving Larocca criticize someone else's art.

But there are literally two black dudes on skateboards than I can think of in the entire history of superhero comics.

It was after the fact, but Spyke from the X-Men: Evolution cartoon embodies the memo to a T. That's comics-adjacent, though.

Also he was related to the other black character on the show.

The thing is, these aren't even really that "painful." (from an outside view) The tweets are borderline constructive criticism. They say what they enjoyed and where they thought the book fell short. I'm sure there's plenty of dumb abuse coming from the right about Man-Eaters, but no, the most incisive tweets you can take and use in your book are the ones that acknowledge the existence of gender binaries and transpeople. Like, what the gently caress.

Apparently students in Taiwan (and most likely elsewhere but this is just my experience) will choose an English name to use in their English classes, and several Taiwanese I know just use these as their common names now (this is in Japan, so not even in the English sphere). There's some fairly standard names like Julia or Rachel, but also like Theodora and some stripper-esque names like Sprite and Glamor.
