    Default Immortal Wonder Woman Creative Team Receive Threat

    Recently a "fan" threatened the creative team of Immortal Wonder Woman because they didn't like the content, specifically the SMWW themes.

    This kind of behaviour is disgusting and should be condemned by everyone.

    Seriously. What has the comic community become?

    This behavior isn't new at all. Chris Claremont received death threats in the 80's because he killed Jean Grey.

    Social media only made the behavior faster and more public.

    Well, it's beyond messed up and remains completely unacceptable, regardless of how new or old it is.

    Agreed.

    I just meant that the comic book community hasn't "become" this, unfortunately like any fandom, its always had people like this.

    not only did he threaten the creative team but he also attacked SMWW fans who said a positive word to the team ... I had a dialogue with him and the other fake account he created. This person is clearly disturbed.

    "disturbed"? That's too nice a way to put it, that person is nutty as a fruitcake. Okay that was too nice too, but consider it the censored version of what I really want to say.

    Wtf??? This is the most absurd thing I've seen in a while (and I live in Florida where absurdity is a daily occurrence).

    That's whacko. I absolutely despised Brian Azzarello's run Wonder Woman but I would never even think about threatening him over it. Voice your criticisms but let's draw the line there and let it go. I hope the new team writes a fantasy story where Wonder Woman makes love to Superman just to further tick off this nut job.

    Hardcore shippers are nuts. And she was wearing Batman’s utility belt and a GL ring so it’s not like they didn’t pay tribute to the other heroes, she even cried talking to Ghost Batman one last time! People need to relax.

    It's sad to see that they are getting attacked, but I'm not surprised. There are a lot of creators that need to use blocking tools for trolls and "fans". Especially on Twitter. I think he and his other strawman account are gone now at least, and I hope this remains an isolated incident.

    By "destroy you" do they mean spamming angry comments on twitter until all their accounts get locked?

    Hardcore shippers ruined fandoms. Before people would just debate online and then go back to reading fanfic. Now hardcore shippers want to threaten and bully creators.
