Really, who cares about comic book characters? I never understood the interest by anyone over the age of 12. In today’s environment, I doubt anyone UNDER the age of, oh, 40, cares. Collectors and guys in their 40’s who still live in mom’s basement maybe.

Sorry, this silly in and out of the closet/commie/enviro whacko trend that everyone keeps writing about creeping into comic books - what power do they have over anything or anyone that we don’t grant them? If a tree in a forest is cut down to print a comic book, do I give a...., ah, never mind.

I say ditch the dime store comics and read Melville.

Can we compromise?

And now you see their target. See Jimmy, buggering is safe, natural, and even Captain Ass-pirate is doing it.

Homos used to troll around public restrooms and the playground looking to give young boys some candy and a ride home.....now they write their comic books.

Sorry Sarge, but in case you haven’t noticed, comic book culture has risen to prominence in pop culture. Look at the success of the Avengers at the box office breaking record after record.

Don't you check out what the kids read? At all?

These aren't just supposed to be heroes, people to emulate, but Super Heroes.

Even fictitious heroes are supposed to be role models--'normalized' perversion just doesn't fit that description.
