Dc is fully aware of the duty they have towards giving the youth the representation they deserve btw

#dc comics #dc universe #dcsowhite #dcblackout #dc boycott #more about the dc boycott because TikTok is frying my brain cells with their half baked arguments

Please stop recommending Batman year one to new comic readers

#idk why everyone keeps recommending it as one of the greatest Batman comics of all time #when the person you’re telling this to likely has very little Batman knowledge that will help them understand why it’s so great #also just confusing for new readers #if you don’t know about the Batman bg cast especially #dc comics #dc universe #batman #batman year one #new comic reader

Just came from a comment section insisting the problem with dc not publishing a black title in 3 years is with the consumers and not with dc itself and that it’s not a racism problem. This shit is so far from over omg

#dcsowhite #dc boycott #dcblackout #‘it hurts black creatives’ you don’t care about black creatives matt and even if you did that’s not how it works #‘if you want black titles you should support the black characters by buying their comics’#how are we supposed to buy something that doesn’t exist #‘you can’t blame dc for pushing out what sells more often’#I can and I will joey #the demand for black characters has always been there #will always be there #this boycott is months in the making #this is a last resort #‘I don’t see anyone picking up mr terrific or static comics’ take a wild guess as to why #if the stuff isn’t promoted the stuff doesn’t get popular it’s not rocket science #and it’s also not rocket science to figure out fc has been very particular about which characters get promoted for the last 3 years #add to that the disaster that is the lanterns show #and dc’s intentions become pretty clear #just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist

Just found out there are people out there who genuinely hate the geoff johns gl run. I’m guessing it’s mainly the parallax retcon that ruffles some feathers but listen you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Granted, the retcon was far from perfect and takes away from his redemption arc as the spectre but it got the job done, and the lore & stories that followed were objectively awesome. And emerald twilight was character assassination anyway.

#my feelings towards the parallax retcon can be summarised in one word:#shrug #I’m completely indifferent to it to a criminal degree #dc comics #dc universe #green lantern #lantern corps #hal jordan #parallax

Seeing john in a comic panel feels like being a mother staring at a picture of her son who’s been sent to war 💔

#the mother doesn’t know if her son is gonna be okay and neither do I with john #dc comics #dc universe #green lantern #lantern corps #john stewart #lanterns

Do I read green lantern comics or do I rewatch green lantern animated series🤔 decisions decisions

Please don’t ask me what I think about the lanterns trailer. I don’t feel like acknowledging it’s existence just yet

Okay. So.

Whole thing just feels like a slap in the face honestly. You’re telling me black characters have been pushed to the back burner for years (over three, to be exact), and now that there’s finally a major project centered around John, DC immediately pairs him with Hal instead of fully letting him lead? Because they don’t trust him to carry on the brand alone. The pattern of black heroes rarely being trusted to carry stories by themselves while white legacy characters are still positioned alongside them as the “safe” anchor is making me homicidal, genuinely. If they wanted a mentorship/conflict setup, they could’ve used literally anyone else. I’m struggling to see the logic of that choice just like DC is struggling to consistently put black characters at the forefront of stories, INCLUDING their own.

Goodbye

#this might feel too twitter for tumblr #but bru I needed to say something #I’ve had enough #the longer I think about this fuckass trailer the more it has me fucked up #that suit ugly as shit #that FUCKASS RING #with the gold rim omfgg #the lantern looks the same so it can go too #and southern Hal Jordan who calls john ‘junior’ can get his ass out the door as well thank you #I really really hope this is going to turn out okay still but man #This damn project was never gonna cater to anyone outside of the green lantern fandom anyway #so what’s the need for a gl that’s recognisable to general audiences??#they had guy as the main green lantern in superman and this dude isn’t recognisable for shit #so why not let john take center stage #just this ONCE

Please don’t ask me what I think about the lanterns trailer. I don’t feel like acknowledging it’s existence just yet

I’m genuinely going to need 10 to 15 business days to recover from this.

#i was then shot 57 times #believe it or not this is also what I used to track all my comics #bookmark button I will mourn you until the end of times #what the FUCK am I supposed to do now #I had a ton of runs I was reading at the same time too #one tab for each run #oh my goodness I’m gonna go in cardiac arrest #what the shit #if anybody can pm me and tell me another website that is preferably niche #i would be eternally grateful

Nubia & martian manhunter fanart?? Hello niche community

Also yes I know I made a whole post to say Nubia wouldn’t look Afro centric and now I turn around and draw her like this god yes I’m a hypocrite & a fraud throw the tomatoes i am the pot who will apologise to the kettle for calling it black. Currently also working on an ororo sketch because the x men fandom has swallowed me whole.

I love that the first real hint of canon emmajean I've seen came courtesy of Loki trying to weasel their way out of trouble by hitting Emma with "Have you considered you're in love with Jean Grey? Loser?"

I hope we continue in this direction.

Can anybody explain the science behind redditors loving scemma? I’ve been getting into xmen cos I grew up with evolution and I’ve always loved jott. BUT THEN I went on Reddit for reading guides and all that junk and I swear people are absolutely crazy about scemma on there I actually got whiplash.

So I thought alright I guess I’ll be the black sheep cos I really don’t get the appeal, whatever. And for a moment i genuinely thought i had the xmen fandom figured out lol. But ive been getting lots of xmen content on tt lately and on there it’s the COMPLETE opposite, people despise scemma with all their hearts (my pettiness & love for jott tells me I’m one of them). Tbf I think I already know the answer lol but if anyone knows I’d love some insight bc this is so weird

Re: After some time spent in xmen land, I now have let go of my resentment of emma frost to fully embrace the emmajean lifestyle. Why did no one tell me about them from the beginning

#look look usually I hate this thing where people ship two women together because they’re in love with the same man in canon #I think it’s very performative #and lowkey misogynistic #but emmajean…#that flair….#that charm….#that chemistry….#count me IN #wow….#wow #they’re great #emmajean #emma frost #jean grey #x men comics #x men #jemma

it’s so clear anybody who has ever drawn nubia has never laid eyes on a malagasy woman but I’ll still take that representation ✊

#it’s not often madagascar gets rep outside of the penguins of madagascar so can’t complain too much right haha #cue nervous and awkward laughter followed by coughing #nubia of themyscira #nubia #dc comics #dc universe #wonderfam #wonder family #wonder woman
