Not sure if news about comic book cancellations is “in theme” with the community.

    I mean good for Gretchen. She’s right, and I’m glad she’s standing by her convictions. But there were other people working on that title. DC fucked a lot of people here, and really, so did Gretchen.

    Its tough. On the one hand, facing the consequences of doing the right thing is inherently noble. On the other hand, making that decision for a bunch of other people is not.

      Yeah, no, she didn’t fuck them. That’s the worst take you can have, just letting them roll over you.

      It sucks if you stand your ground and someone else gets hit, but the blame is always on the bully, not the bullied.

        Also totally ignores the fact that many comics aren’t done by their original creator, they could have just asked them to step away for awhile while someone else runs a storyline.

      If DC were prepared to cancel the comic at a moments notice they were already considering it.
