- I don’t think it’s necessary to make politics so overt in comics. Classic Valiant comics weren’t, and I don’t care what Heather Antos says. She just wants to use them as a vehicle to push her politics. She did the same thing when she was at Marvel.

I saw the article on Twitter and read it. Bleeding Fool is a “geek” site that focuses on writing articles about pop culture: comics, movies, etc. I didn’t say I don’t like politics. I honestly don’t like reading heavy handed politics in comic books or seeing it my popcorn flicks. I like to escape politics when I partake of entertainment.
Seeing as how comic sales have declined, I’d say a lot of other comic book fans aren’t keen on reading it either. Heather Antos was a long time editor at Marvel before resigning and taking a job in the gambling industry. Guess it didn’t work out because Chinese owned Valiant hired her as editor, and Valiant comic sales are on the decline. They’ve already shut down their NYC office.

- I thought Bleedingcool was the website for us nerds who love comic books, movies, video games, pop culture and collectibles, not Bleedingfool. Sorry about that Logerine.

No need to apologize at all. We’re friends.  You’ve always been kind and civil to me.
