I haven't read Y: The Last Man yet (I'll admit I'm a bit wary of stories that leave the main character as the 'only' of anything) but since I love Runaways, I'll give it a chance next time I have a few extra pesos when I'm at the comic store.<br /><br />And I added you at Comic Space. I still have no idea what I'll do with that page, but you're added ;)<br /><br />Ami, I'm very glad the idea got through. Unfortunately, the language barrier -for me, and the guys at Cenizas on one side; everyone else on the other- makes this things really difficult. And the most virulent feminists in my country, the ones that truly believe that women, for the sake of being women deserve some sort of special treatment, make things even harder when you're fighting for equality. <br />But hopefully, soon enough we'll make people understand that the problem is not the T&A.<br />And welcome to this little blog.Adalisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07313906267128442561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24857763.post-58258179350913661542007-01-10T05:33:00.000-08:002007-01-10T05:33:00.000-08:00You make an excellent point when you say that if w...You make an excellent point when you say that if we accept the argument that a feminist reading comic books wanting them to be less sexist is the same as a taco without meat, then we accept that comic books are inherently sexist. XD<br /><br />And honestly, if you phrased it like that, most comic writers will say "hey now, no we're not!" So either sexism is a big part of comics, or it's not and can be removed.<br /><br />Neways, I rly liked what you wrote :)Ami Angelwingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07263018434610100226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24857763.post-6610406894499542602007-01-08T00:05:00.000-08:002007-01-08T00:05:00.000-08:00I would lie if I said I didnt like power girl's br...I would lie if I said I didnt like power girl's breasts. Do her breasts augment my love for the Justice Society of America? Absolutely not. The most important thing for me is the story. When I was a kid I loved a comic for it's art. Now, it has to be a good story or I drop the book. <br /><br />You mentioned Runaways in your post; BKV does another Y the last man with very strng female characters. <br /><br />I think we are in a fantastic time to read comics. There is a lot to choose from. Some sexist and others that truly respect the role of the woman. <br /><br />I really like how you addressed this issue. And truly respect your opinion. Looking frward to having you as a friend in Comic Space.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
