La la la, I am in my happy "Steph is a hero again" place and I can't hear the apparently homicidal writers, la la la la.

*joins you*

*sigh*

I can see the DC headquarters from my office. I miss the days when that would have made me giddy.

Wow. Wow. WOW.

Willingham, go take your misogynistic ass outside, take a breath, and get some goddamned fucking perspective, you idiot.

Ugh, I have volume one of Fables sitting in a box, waiting to be read. Ughhhhh. So dirty.

Oh wow. He has this much of an issue with women who think differently to him?

Is he hearing himself talk? Or is he trying to be hipster-ironic-funny or something and "laughing at" the fact that he's a misgynistic fuckwad?

I need to go find lists of the stuff he's written and avoid it like all shit.


Every time I see crap like this, I feel like I owe Capcom thankyou cards and backrubs for being awesome, for not being misogynistic shits, for not being homophobic when someone suggests that the two main dudes are in love with each other, for knowing about all the kinky doujins and the Meme and not threatening legal action, and for just, you know, not being huge arseholes to their fans. I usually don't feel that being a human being is merit for celebration, but this Willingham guy is making me rethink that.

Phoenix Wright love! <3333

Wow. WOOOOOOW. That is. That is something special right there.

I'm so glad I never listened to the people who told me to read Fables.

UM........WHAT.

I don't even know what to say about that. Jesus Tapdancing CHRIST :|

Auuuuuugh, did he really write Fables? GODDAMMIT, WHY MUST MISOGYNISTIC FUCKHEADS RUIN EVERYTHING?

well, there went any desire to ever read anything he's written. i feel an angry letter coming on. being one of those girls asking about a memorial case was an awesome feeling and something i still brag about being a part of.

So... some women made his life hard by not being quiet little things like they ought, and frequently spoke their mind. He reacts to the debate by feeling so threatened he wants to shoot people??? And then he tries to diminish their argument further by insisting they were 'girls', which means that in his head his thinks little girls should be seen and not heard, or shot for their impertinence?

Okay, so I guess he didn't really want to shoot people, but still - way to go with the combined use of violent, dismissive imagery and mysogyny.

Ass. Hat. Grrrrr.

I am so embarrassed to be in the same genetic postcode as Willingham. Gah.

This is why I haven't been to a comics-related con panel since 1989. The undisguised conetempt for the audience never stops.

Yes. Conetempt. It's so strong that I had to add an extra vowel.

GodDAMNit, I love Fables and I loathe the idea of not reading it anymore but seriously, THAT IS SOME SERIOUSLY JERKY BEHAVIOR.

Like, seriously. Hate. HATE. What the fuck, gunning down fans is now an acceptable thing to wish for? Because they like a char? Because someone did their job right and wrote a female char that they empathized with and cared about?

Mary fucking Magdalene, I am not impressed here.

INORITE.

I just LOVE hearing about violent fantasies directed at me and my colleagues. It makes my fucking day.

Thanks for the link. That just . . . way to make me not feel like ending my trial separation from comics, Willingham. I don't even know what to do with that.
