tricorn, teabags, and frothing at the mouth at the idea of fragging their own? that's a great caricature!
@ guizonde: I think I like the way you think.

Agreed 100%! The GOP are 5150! :P



The bit with Trump made me LOL with "Squeeze him and watch blood come out of his wherever". I also think Jeb's "Anchor Baby" is adorkable and the guacamole dish/pestle thingy was a nice touch. HOLA!  ;D

It seems to be poking fun at Hillary & Bernie, too. It's an equal-opportunity poker (but the GOPers get more pokey...and rightfully so).

Well, people can care about misrepresentation in a medium without patronizing said medium.  That's not invalid or anything.

Well, yeah. But if all or most of the people complaining about something in your work are not in fact your audience, and will not become your audience upon you fixing it, should you care about them?

(on the other hand, I don't think this is an accurate representation of the state of comic books, and lots of the people who complain about sexism in comics are comic readers, so...)

The funny thing I've encountered is the one's who complain the loudest about changes are ones who haven't read comics in years, and they play the whole "It's ruining my childhood" bs, or they say some bs about how non original the new diverse characters are but ignore not only the amount "Mantle passing" that has gone on for years, and  cast of characters that are found in the non mainstream comic companies out there(this is where I recommend Image's Rat Queens).

I've decided to take Art's advice here and say: if you can't apply your accusations of logical fallacies consistently then don't apply them at all.

No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

I liked the last one best. But then, the bank-caused crash cost me 20 years worth of my very modest retirement investments. Makes ya wanna kill the bitches.

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.
