Minorities In Comics and Related Media

Hey, guys, so guess what? Last Friday on Haitian Flag Day, Is'nana the Were-Spider was able to pick up 3 Glyph Awards. For those who don't know, the Glyph Awards awards excellence in Black centered and based comic books. I'm seriously honored, especially looking at the past winners of each individual category I got awarded for.

Congratulations. Keep up the good work.

Congratulations. Keep up the good work.

That's the plan! Thank you.

This was precisely how Donald Glover, who portrays the character in Ron Howard's upcoming spin-off film, thought about it. Appearing on SiriusXM’s Entertainment Weekly Radio, Glover was asked about Kasdan's comments on the "fluidity" of his character's sexuality stating.

How can you not be pansexual in space? There are so many things to have sex with. I don't think that was that weird. Yeah, he's coming on to everybody. I feel like if you're in space it's kind of like, the door is open! It's like, not only guys or girls - no, it's anything. This thing is literally a blob. Are you a man or a woman? Like, who cares? Have a good time out here.

Bryan Edward hill is taking over Miles' book. First time a black dude is writing him, I believe.

In what way? Bendis has been the only one to write him in terms of his own solo series. In terms of guest performances, Walker written him in the Luke Cage comic, and the writer who wrote Miles Morales YA novel was also black.

Guess we gonna find out how many people were buying just because of Bendis.

I don't even know who this dude is.

Guess we gonna find out how many people were buying just because of Bendis.

I don't even know who this dude is.

He did the Micheal Cray series the from Wildstrom/DC, I also think is wrote some of the upcoming Batman: Detective Comics. He also does Postal at Image.

A writer who's better than BMB Imo

You already know the answer. We saw it with Falcon.

And the bigger question will be how many stores ordered copies because it was Bendis.

Hill is the guy who does Image's Postal.

He also did Batman and his black son-Duke mini-that LOL more folks got interested in than those who were rallying to get him out of comics. The mini also did well digital (on Amazon) when every issue came out.

He does the Michael Cray series.

He has the stealth Outside pitch arc in Detective Comics. That has a LOT of folks interested.

He is doing the Black Lightning & Hong Kong Phooey one shot.

He was a writer for the movie vThe Legend of Muay Thai: 9 Satra.

He is doing the Titians tv series and wrote an episode of Ash vs Evil & has a mini series for BET.

When this comes out-you will have this, Batman/Signal trade, Cray & Detective arc all happening at once with his name on it. Who knows if Postal starts back up.

He's like Jason Reynolds-he's someone who can only help Miles outside the comic book store than hurt him. Funny thing is he will have now worked on both companies top black male teens. ANd if that Miles annual does well and he gets the Miles ongoing gig-does this force DC's hand with Duke? Because right now he's the only guy that has done something with Duke in Rebirth.

Job well done -- glad to see you reap the benefits of your work and dedication.

The ones I bought, I bought because of Sara.

[skyvolt2000]

The ones I bought, I bought because of Sara.

She was more of the selling point than Bendis for that first series. All you had to do was show the art and it was a sale.



And to the shock of no one-

Fresh off the news that Former President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama have signed a multi-year deal with Netflix to produce both scripted and unscripted content, the conservative backlash againt black America's royal family has begun and we are not one bit surpsied by this nonsense.

Right on time with their patented brand of unseasoned nonsense, conservatives on Twitter are threatening to boycott the streaming service, despite the fact that associated of the Obamas have apparently said that its unlikely for Netflix programs produced by the Obamas to be extremely partisan.

[Handsome men don't lose fights]

I don't like Orange is the new Black. Uph, guess I better cancel my netflix sub rather than do the impossible task of just watching one of the thousands of other programs they have available on the service. While I'm at it, I hate Fox news too. Guess I should cut my cable line while I'm at it. Shame I'll never see how Legion ends this season, but damn it, it's got to be done for perfectly logical and none-colicky white conservative snowflake safespace bubble echo chamber reasons.

Still so mad about 2008, my goodness.

Eh, I feel like Hollywood types say things like this to sound progressive, because if they don't social media will eat them alive, it'sll Disney after all, though they've gotten more progressive.

Knowledge.....

Looks Omega Level Corning, but I didn't hate it didn't love it but didn't hate it..
