Re: Sexism & Violence In the Comic Industry

DC seems to be putting its foot in its mouth a lot lately re: sexism and inappropriateness. Take the next link for example http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=55907 I'm not even going to go there, as it looks like the product has been condemned (and rightly so, does DC really thin...

A few pieces of that and the cravings are distracted for a while. :) ...

AoA Nightcrawler (Darkholme) in Uncanny X-Force Teaser Image

Also I see Marvel is pulling a DC. By doing this, Kurt is no longer Dave Cockrum's character, he is a What-If version. Same thing they did with Batman/Superman/Flash/ the rest of DC. They were losing money and couldn't make bank paying the creator rights. Does this mean there will be outrage about ...
