ya right.

in yer nerd boy dreams!

 

LOVE micheal lisners dawn, series...

she is hot AND strong and don't need No man to show her the way

 

let's hear it for

 

NERD GIRLS!

 

Let me ask, does she help him at all?  Also it's fine to help women if they ask for it.  Healthy relationships where the characters depend on each other should be a good thing.

 

What's the alternative, he lets her get into shit and then doesn't save her?  Now if she offered to help him and he rejected it due to ego/not wanting to look weak then that would be bad.  Also who's comic is it?  If she has her own series of comics then she can be strong and independent there, until then it's a comic about Strange so it only makes sense that all the stories would involve him in some way.  Also what kind of guy doesn't actively try to help the woman he's banging?  Let's say he did that and she died, then he'd look like a right prick and everyone would be like "where was he when she needed him!?" Either way it seems like the guy can't win here.

IDK I don't really get into comics and have only ever seen the movies.  Capeshit is played out anyway.  Watchmen was pretty good at least.  I'd really like a Transmetropolitan reboot but they can leave all the weird incel shit out of it.  I don't get how he's simultaneously brooding about being alone while banging either his assistant or both his bodyguard and his other assistant (to it's credit the brooding is pretty minimal, probably just filler.) Anyway I doubt Strange can be more misogynistic than Transmet, but I'm a sucker for a Cyberpunk aesthetic mixed with a noire gumshoe antihero protagonistic storyline.

I just finished the Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir. I'm a little bit unhinged about them now, they've very good and I recommend them. Kinda a mix of fantasy, science fiction, and tumblr memes (in a good way).

    • Feeling happy to report that my neighbor and her cat are now back together.  I build her fur baby an indoor Cat Run and now the cat and her 3 kittens have been moved in.  I told my neighbor to make sure the little ones stay with their mother for at least 3 days in their new environment before she starts letting people handle and take the babies away.    I wish she would keep at least one of the 3 kittens, but apparently they are all already spoken for.

    • Well it happened, understandably but it still sucks.  I hated them both so I was going to be unhappy either way, but I do admit I hate Trump slightly more because of the narcissism, egomania, xenophobia, and misogyny.  On top of that that insufferable base of his who think that they are free to act the same way now that he's won.  The apologetics from them were horrible too where they handwaved away legitimate criticisms, and mocking those who brought them with "orange man bad!"   The one good thing to come out of this is punk music is going to absolutely rock for the next few years.  However I really just have one question... https://www.loudersound.com/features/andrew-eldritch-sisters-of-mercy-will-make-another-album-if-trump-is-elected IT'S HAPPENED TWICE NOW ANDY, WHERE'S OUR FUCKIN' ALBUM‽ Well, I guess at least I'll get to keep my guns.
