A comic to lift your spirits

The guy shown here is not supposed to be representative of scans daily posters as a whole who I know to contain a number of real actual women and also furries.

Oh, and for legality:

I believe part of the reason this became a kerfluffle is that the events were only ambiguous in their degree; the situation was either highly troubling or very troubling, but was never going to be not troubling.

This strip could apply to some discussions, both here and elsewhere, but I don't think it's an accurate enough description to serve as a parody.

But the comic doesn't portray an "ambiguous series of events that could be potentially offensive". It portrays a series of events that IS offensive. Playing rape as comedy in a mainstream comic is never cool, even if the rape itself didn't take place, the readers were meant to think it did, therefore it's still playing rape for laughs.

And people getting angry about it? Good. I'm glad. people SHOULD be angry about it and calling out Marvel on the bullshit because that's part of what our ethos is all about.

This cartoon both really misses the mark and also the multiple reasons why people are upset and angry about the sequence and belittles legitimate complaints.

It's difficult to tell if you're honestly trying to be friendly. In any case, I think it's time to move on to different subjects, don't you?

well, this did make me giggle
I think the dislike of the rape issue in Spiderman is justified, and this IS kinda making fun of us, but those last two panels on this are pretty good, especially facial expression-wise
I suppose this should be taken with a grain of salt

who did this comic by the way?

I've seen political cartoons that miss the mark about as much as this one did.

I guess that means Webcomics are now an official artistic medium now!

Belittling concerns about rape being portrayed as humorous in a comic probably isn't the best way to start a post around here, jsyk.

The punchline is in the last two panels, not the first two.
(anyone thinking scans_daily changed the plot of ASM #605 and that FVL is lying about it takes naivity to a new level)

To be honest, it feels a bit long, you could probably lose a panel (not sure which one though) to make the thing read better.

I really don't see how the events from the next issue should alter my distaste of the storyline, since it's based on the manner and tone in which an apparent sequence of events was treated. The fact that this apparent sequence of event contained a bit of misdirection isn't really relevant to that.

Official Warning
[info]angelophile
2009-09-14 09:42 pm UTC (link)
Following on from my comment above and after discussion with my fellow mods, [info]groosealoose:

"This is your FIRST OFFICIAL WARNING. Please note that if you receive two further warnings you will lose the ability to post on this community."

The reason you're being given this warning is because of the fact that this comic is a very thinly veiled attack post against members of the community with legitimate concerns with no apparent interest in fair discussion. You'd earn a warning for typing this and putting it in comic form doesn't negate the impact.

IIRC, that issue was the first Titans story I ever read *and* was the first time I learned Dick Grayson had "graduated" to Nightwing and a kid named Jason was the new Robin.

You know, irregardless of the comic's contents, I have two suggestions:

One, change this so it has two panels on top, the writer panel in the middle, then the last two at the bottom. Or maybe change it to first panel, next two panels, last two panels (because of the word balloon in the first panel).

Two, I have no idea why but the guy you drew keeps nagging at the back of my head. Why is he so damn familiar? He reminds me of a comic book villain but I can't place who.
