Right, the ideology of loving who you want is negative, of course. But the ideology of hating people for who they love is positive?

I had high-hopes for this. I love Hawkgirl, especially from the animated series. Well, this ain't her. I had never heard of Jadzia A. before, but apparently she's an activist. I'm so tired of activists injecting their identity politics into comics where they don't belong. You want to write a slice-of-life book, that's fine, but don't make a superhero comic into a slice-of-life book it's just going more

Hex - Jul 20, 2023

Why did you read this book? You clearly aren't aware of this version of Hawkgirl. It literally says in the description it's Kendra. She's been like this for a long time, not Shayera. I have to believe you much like most of the bigot brigade came here because you all collectively march to the same hateful drum because gay people bother you and no other reason.

No more agendas. No more self inserts. No more soap boxes. No more character assassinations. We just want good comic book stories. This is an abortion of a comic and deserves to be used as toilet paper. The art is the only good element.
