    Yes. I would agree with this.

    Yes. I would agree with this.

    Just a minor correction. On “Lois and Clark” Clark reveals he was a virgin but only says he was waiting for the right person that he felt truly comfortable with given his heritage and background...

    In response to the question above about the famous line from Superman: The Movie….

    Fairly certain that even in the 70’s “I like pink very much, Lois” was 100% a thinly veiled response to their...

    Oh I know. Homophobia is so ingrained in their world view and they operate through the use of distortion of the facts and carefully placed headlines designed to make people angry.

    “Clark Kent and...

    Yeah which is offensive for several reasons.

    Man of steel/woman of Kleenex is connected to rape culture and that doesn’t really change if it’s two men. The idea that one can imagine an alien from...

    The conservative pearl clutching over “why does sexuality have to be part of the story now” is so outrageously disingenuous::particularly:: for this franchise that I can’t even stand it.

    For as...

    Putting aside Dean Cain bc I don’t care what that dude has to say.

    Dana Daleny openly supported Jon on social media.

    And Bitsie Tulloch liked a ton of the tweets introducing Jon as bisexual.

    The MCU isn’t distancing from the trope—it’s distanced from romance and sexuality period. There have been countless articles written about this. With rare exceptions, the MCU doesn’t engage enough...

    It’s 2021 and there is literally no need for a straight male writer though to be referencing the silver age when he’s talking about a character who is 83 years old unless, again, he’s specifically...
  10. Right but, again, the reason that trope is often...

    Right but, again, the reason that trope is often abused can be traced back to misogyny.

    Steve Trevor is viewed as a “lesser man” because, generally speaking, many straight men have a hard time...
  11. Yeah. It was bad. Maybe he truly was...

    Yeah. It was bad. Maybe he truly was misquoted—-who knows. Maybe he misspoke. I’m willing to give the guy another chance but it definitely wasn’t great on paper.
  12. Bringing Siegel and Shuster into this feels...

    Bringing Siegel and Shuster into this feels extremely inappropriate given the way their legal troubles shook out with WB so I would be careful of that bc that’s a slippery slope.

    Last time I...

    Except it’s not a truthful statement. It’s not. Not unless you are prepared to unpack the way the character was treated specifically in the 50’s and 60’s snd the way the political movement against...

    It’s also just particularly problematic rhetoric to use with two men, because the implication then becomes that men relying on each other or being saved by each other is beneath them.

    Generally...
  15. I actually like Tom a lot personally and I...

    I actually like Tom a lot personally and I actually don’t think he hates Lois at all. I actually think he likes her a lot.

    I think he got over zealous trying to pump up his new couple and, for...
  16. I have literally never heard that. If he is,...

    I have literally never heard that. If he is, fine. It doesn’t excuse the racism or misogyny though bc white queer men are not immune to racial insensitivity or misogyny. But thanks for the info.
  17. I’m thrilled for the many fans who will feel seen...

    I’m thrilled for the many fans who will feel seen by this news and I welcome this kind of representation in the book. I saw someone say today that it’s hard to understand the impact of having the...

    I don’t know—-it’s always hit me hard.

    It has always felt legit disgusting to me that Harley emerged as a hero of the Injustice comics “taking down Superman” when she was one of the two people...
  19. This shouldn’t have to be explained to you but...

    This shouldn’t have to be explained to you but “it’s not a good thing to kill women off to cause their husband’s man pain” is not shipping drama. Lois is the second most important person in this...
  20. I mean you can disagree all you want but your...

    I mean you can disagree all you want but your opinion isn’t exactly on the same level as Waid’s given he’s the writer.

    And I think you are misunderstanding the issues.

    Yes, KC absolutely,...
  21. Yeah, FYI guys Mark Waid doesn’t consider Kingdom...

    Yeah, FYI guys Mark Waid doesn’t consider Kingdom Come a “happy ending” and that’s part of the problem with the way people view it bc he considers it a misunderstanding of what he was saying.

    He...

    Waid talked about this openly years ago when he was the guest teacher for an online woman in comics course and he’s revisited it again on Twitter.

    He regrets pairing Superman and Wonder Woman...

    This is not an accurate description of Superman and Lois at all.

    Lois’s relationships with her boys, in particular with Jonathan, have been given plenty of depth and attention in recent episodes....

    Johnson has made his entire life on Earth, all his earth relationships and his entire civilian identity completely irrelevant as if it doesn’t even exist. It’s all alien all the time. I think comic...

    It’s the least interested I’ve been in Superman in years. Usually, even if an idea seems bad, I feel compelled to at least hate read it. This is just a big nothing.
