I've heard good things about her Red Sonja, and I have a soft spot for her, but I absolutely loathed Batgirl despite its constant praise. Not sure I want to risk it. I mean, I think there are lots of bad people/douchey writers out there (like Alan Moore) but she's the first to make me take a character I like and…

I despise Gail Simone, but then she writes awful comics, so the only context in which I have to deal with her is that she gave us the way-too-over-used "fridging" notion.

Don't let Move The Fuck Over, Bro see that gif or they'll start screaming about misogyny.

I don't think anyone is raging, except for the people who think such accusations are somehow unfair or unwarranted. Other people are calling them out for what they see as chicanery. I guess it just depends on how much either of those things bothers you.

Because people love other people who are dishonest and duplicitous about their intentions and totally want to hang around them and exist in the same social circles?

It's a thing, much like most social media thing, that happens sometimes, and gets paraded around like it happens every 15 seconds. Like, for every time this happens at a con, there are THOUSANDS of people who give zero fucks about how little you know about Glory.

Yeah...that's pretty much called being a nerd. It's the geek secret handshake. When I was in...7th grade, I was talking to some new guys about books, and we'd all read pretty different things, until we got to to Dragonlance, and once there was a commonality established, I got bombarded and did my own bombarding of…

Which is fine, if they aren't being a self-aggrandizing knob. You wouldn't try to join a band without knowing how to play an instrument. You would at least get the basics under your belt before stomping in, demanding to be let in, and getting pissy when they tell you that you aren't actually a musician.

Not All Geeks Are Created Equal.

I don't even remember her from the books. Apparently I missed something super important? Or not since she, like the rest of Dorne, is pretty much a footnote to what's going with the rest of the plot? As much as I liked Oberyn, the characters from Dorne seemed to be one of those, "Look how exotic and strange we are…

The people who disagree with you are morons, huh? Why not try to find common ground with the people with whom you disagree rather than rant against them?

This makes me so happy with my wife and girlfriend. So, so happy.

Rules: Sources of invulnerability do not stack. If that were the case, then theoretically someone could skin Luke Cage and wear his flesh as perfect armor.

Interesting fact: When the concept of invulnerability was initially introduced with Superman, it was actually a force field that surrounded him a short distance…

Yeah, because it totally matters when your flesh is basically invulnerable. LOGIC.

A lot of people are pissed because Thor is, essentially, being demoted. His new title, as Marvel has introduced him, is the Unworthy Thor. That's...just flat out insulting. However, unless the author renigs on his own writing, Thor Odinson will have Mjolnir again eventually, so this a temporary thing, and it…

Feminism, ya'll! "We can't be certain which party is telling the truth, but it's worth considering that he's a rapist, not that she's a liar." Good job!

I love the people who talk about false rape accusations being this tiny number, which is awesome, because that only takes into account one thing: false rape accusations that are a) reported to the authority and b) false rape accusations that are caught. I can speak from personal experience in having been accused of…

And I'm so already over the whole trendy 12 year old look. Also, yeah, this costume does for zippers and buttons what Nomura did for belts. A few more pouches, and it'd look like she'd been dumpster diving in 90's Liefeld drek.

I can't say it's a lot of feminists, but I will say there is definitely a school of feminist thought that says, "Men shall have nothing that women do not." I had a feminist at one point tell me that I could not go out with my male friends to hang out with them on a guy's night and it not be an act of misogynist…

See, I always pictured them as more of this weird Roman mash-up, but I guess that fits as well. Thanks!
