Yeah, I'm assuming that Disney's counting on the Chinese market—in which case, a Japanese actress playing Mulan will go down very badly. China is not cool with the Rape of Nanking, to put it mildly.

Science is an explanation of things we know, science fiction is an exploration of the things we can't yet know. Whenever science comes up against the unknowable, it throws itself out the window and start…

This is fantastic. My four year old dauther is loving that Thor's a female right now (I'm digging this run on the book as well.). The more bad ass women in comics the better I saw.
