Unpopular opinions/not so much love letter to comic fans:

Dear COMIC-FANS,

Mia Dearden is HIV-positive. She is not a “goner” or “that girl with AIDS.” She is our ONE superhero who also happens to be HIV-positive. Oh and also? People who are HIV positive can be in loving and sexual relationships with people who aren’t HIV positive. Maybe by being a character with this disease — a disease which has just so happens to be considered a pandemic by WHO — she can help you learn more about it instead of making ignorant comments like the ones above. 

xoxo

Dear COMIC-FANS,

Please stop with the “Judd Winick has a gay agenda” and/or is going to make a new character “gay and/or HIV positive/have an STD” crap. Seriously. No, seriously, stop. We need more LGBTQ characters in comics, anyways, thankyouverymuch. 

xoxo

Dear COMIC-FANS,

Stop saying Starfire is a slut or that the Star Sapphires look like “space sluts” because of her/their costumes. Sure, I agree, they’re ugly costumes, but let’s not use a term to degrade women to describe it. 

xoxo


Dear (Morrison) COMIC-FANS,

Grant Morrison is not a God. If I don’t like a body of his work or a single issue by him, that is MY OPINION and I’m not “wrong.” 

xoxo
