janothar:tmirai:fireandlifeincarnate:sorry for posting an entire long twitter thread but this is really good and important imo (caps are in order, click to read, original tweet is here)I’ll add that the queer hockey comic they are talking about is Check, Please! which is also written by a black woman and doing absolute gangbusters on Kickster.Hell, even the boring, classic comic fans aren’t buying the individual issues anymore! Many of us are preferring subscription services, or just waiting for the trades so that we get the whole damn story at once. People either want full stories at once or basically daily updates (webcomics) and Marvel and DC haven’t figured this out yet in the slightest. Just like the haven’t figured out that minority groups generally like having solid representation, and even that the plots need to be more than an excuse for supers to punch each other. -- source link
