    Marvel, Brian Michael Bendis Discuss Reasons For Gay X-Man

    Yeah Bendis is certainly not Peter David. Peter David handled the whole Shatterstar/Rictor relationship much better and organically than this footnote outing. I also wonder why he would make is seem like being gay is some sort of conditioned trait, considering that the older iceman is...

    8 Bit Philosophy: Can We Trust the News? (Baudrillard)

    I love this show and it's open ended nature. It presents the ideas to they viewer and encourages them to determine their merit for themselves. The video game based presentation is just a nice bonus. Thank you for this show!

    Is the subtext to the comic that those two guys are domestic partners? If not, I am disappointed...

    Meet X-Men: Apocalypse's Younger Cyclops, Storm, and Jean Grey

    Well, further to that point I would say it is easier to readapt to an accent you previously had, Harlem also has a distinct accent, and it probably would stand out as well. I actually just finished filling in a couple of those issues in my collection, including 102, so it was in the front of...

    Meet X-Men: Apocalypse's Younger Cyclops, Storm, and Jean Grey

    Go reread Uncanny x-men #102. Storm is HALF kenyan, born in new york and raised in harlem before they moved back to her mother's home country which was kenya. Her father was an american journalist. Nothing about an american actress would be completely out of character for her.

    Howard the Duck Returning to Comic Stores Next March

    Not sure how I feel about this... Sure I am curious, but Howard the Duck WAS Steve Gerber. I would be very stunned if anyone else could even come close to writing him in a consistent way.

    Jimquisition: Stupid Sexy Bayonetta

    Yes this i agree with 100%. If i disagree with their reviews enough I will find a better site that actually reflects my interests. Let them carve themselves a smaller niche audience that feels that way as well. The power of meta critic is stupidly important, for some reason, and that is were...

    #TweetLikeNotYourShield Is pretty disgusting

    You will need to use a mental filter for that unfortunately, or maybe write a grease money script. Sorry you felt obligated to read this and comment on it since it bothered you so much, but I appreciate your input all the same. Thanks.

    No, I agree that the way you put this, it is somewhat ironic.

    I believe in this case "your" is referring exclusively to the media. All the same, a very funny observation!

    #TweetLikeNotYourShield Is pretty disgusting

    After realizing it was made by Arthur Chu, who is a piss poor comedian at best, I get the impressions it is just a shoddy attempt at humor, and to that end I do not care. It does seems to be another case of Poe's law. Meanwhile people still get extremely upset to gallows humor, so I guess I...

    I suppose you are right, it got railroaded pretty quick.

    #TweetLikeNotYourShield Is pretty disgusting

    Go take a look at the horror and bigotry flying all over twitter. I am completely astonished at how many people lack the self awareness to say the things that are being said on there. Bullying seems to be alive and well. :( https://twitter.com/search?q=%23TweetLikeNotYourShield&src=typd...
