    for me the bigger question is

    why do companies keep bowing down to people outside of their demographic/ consumers

    they dismiss those that keep them in business to cater to those that never gave them a dime or genuinely care about their product/service

    Feminists aren't even mad about the fact that this guy killed scores of people in my city, they mad because he has bat girl dead to rights on a cover.

    Bruh, are you serious?

    Sometimes when it is us who are the target of some sort of hatred and yet are "outside" of the company's demographic.

    I haven't seen Joker ? anyone except Harley Quinn.

    well, it was strongly implied that he off-panel ? the protagonist's ex-wife in the 2008 Brian Azzarello "Joker" graphic novel........lot of Joker fans caught feelings about that lol. ? Is a Special Kind of Evil trope.

    Yeah. I don't like the change either, but if DC is really TRYING to target the new Batgirl at women & feminists, its hard to dispute it as a business move. Terrible as a artistic decision yes, but sound as a business decision.

    If Marvel did a Black Panther variant cover that could be interpreted as racist, you best believe they're changing that ? after it becomes a top twitter trend. (i could see this happening even if -especially if- it was done by a black artist with the intention of satirizing racism)

    Feminisim and comic geek over reach in sum its total ? .

    Trust me it's just feminists. Real comic book readers are mad because females keep getting into male hobbies and telling them what's acceptable and what's not.

    it's ? annoying. You know when you watch Football, and what happens is since so many NFL players got caught with domestic violence they have those domestic violence ads all over the place now? When you don't give a ? you just wanna watch the game.

    Watch this.

    The bold is actually part of their point...ain't nothing about comics that says "Male only"...Being a comic fan isn't also a way to get membership into the He-Man Woman Haters Club...it's annoying some changes that are being attempted but comics isn't a male only hobby. That sounds kinda suspect

    As I asked in the other thread, did Mr. J's sick ass ? Babs in The Killing Joke because neither Alan Moore or Brian Bolland ever confirmed or denied it. Also according to Grant Morrison, The Batman killed Mr. J at the end of The Killing Joke.

    Why did I know this was gonna turn into another thread basing feminism?

    By the way, ? feminism. Feminism is a antiquated notion and isn't about equality. Feminism is about female superiority and misandry.

    Bottom line is nobody is gonna want them involved if they're gonna all of a sudden tell us what to do.

    Think about it, it's like Muslims coming over to the states and asking ya'll to put Sharia law in the constitution. That's a traditionally American realm, just like all this nerd ? , comics and gaming is the male realm.
