Set Up For Success: Creator Of Color Given Chance To Prove Self With Obscure Comic Character Nobody Cares About The new series will debut the same day as a relaunch of the publisher's most popular character as written by a white guy you've never heard of, per source.

“Why aren’t college students protesting” stories are almost always wrong (they are protesting), omit crucial context (they were brutally punished for protesting before), and somehow suggest that 19 yr olds have more moral responsibility than elected officials three times their age

Dem leadership for generations: no you fool, you infant. It is a process. It takes time and political capital and expertise, it's- Mamdani, dusting off his hands: fixed it Dem leadership: what do you mean you fixed it Mamdani: Just had to unplug it.

making pinup drawings is all good and well, but it won’t make you any better at comics. only making comics will make you better at making comics.

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer. In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.
