Weekly Comics Update: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Well in good news I have to rave for a moment about the Gotham City Sirens series. I just love this new series! The artwork is good, but the storyline is just fabulous! I couldn't ask for more having Poison Ivy, Catwoman, and Harley Quinn together! Harley Quinn is my favorite villainess! She kicks ass! I love that she is smart, child-like, and fucking nuts all at the same time. If we ladies are being honest we love Harley Quinn because she is just like us. Ask my husband he will tell you I am completely crazy, but lovable all the same-LOL! His favorite Happy Bunny quote for me is "Cute but psycho...things even out." I think that sums Harley Quinn up pretty good as well!

 On to the bad news...what the fuck is up with Witchblade? I have been a loyal fan since issue one and I getting so tired of the bad writing! The artwork is breathtaking-I am completely in love with Sejic's work so the art in the series gets an A+...the story however, sucks the big hairy b's! Yes I mean hairy balls or I guess the hairy ball sack.  I really enjoyed the series during the whole First Born storyline...but I started to lose interest with the War storyline. I like Danielle as a character, but Sarah went completely evil on us. What the hell? Since I am complaining at the moment let me also harp on about the ridiculous lesbian storyline they have added in with Danielle! Seriously am I reading a comic or watching a porno? I am all for gay rights and I don't mind more homosexuals being introduced as characters...but everyone knows Danielle and Finch are not really lesbian...they are lipstick lesbians...two hot girl dancers who are experimenting. Again if I want to read that kind of storyline I will read a porno script not a comic! Witchblade has a huge female based readership and I am telling you right now we do not want to read about cheesy lipstick lesbian scenes! So knock it off boys (that means you witchblade writers)! Back to the regular storyline issue...it just feels like the energy and passion of Sarah's character is gone now. The writing has become very mundane! I miss the old Sarah and her ass kicking detectiving ways! Pretty please make Witchblade good again! I want to stay a loyal fan!

In media comic news...why the hell is everyone changing iconic comic costumes? I understand that the movie industry wants to make comic movies more appropriate for general audiences (not just comic fans), but seriously why do they have to change the costume we have come to love so much?


Issue #1: 
Wonder Woman's new outfit. Yes her original outfit is outdated, but who the fuck cares? It's iconic and classic! I love how Americana Wonder Woman's original costume is! Her new outfit looks ridiculous-seriously! It's as if they had to make Wonder Woman become a bull dike in order to be modern. What the fuck? Modern women don't only wear pants and leather jackets...or fingerless gloves for that matter! Where did Wonder Woman's femininity go? I like my heroines feminine and tough! I don't need a dikey Wonder Woman thank you very much! 

Issue #2:

Green Lantern's new movie costume. I am still undecided on this issue. I prefer costumes to be original and iconic, but I can see how lights in the suit might look pretty bad ass. I'll have to wait and see the movie to weigh in properly on this new change.

Issue #3:

Captain America's new movie costume. Ugh! What more can I say! Yes tights on a man are weird and somewhat homoerotic but still superheros always wear tights-come on! What is up with his new cargo pants? Captain America's new costume is meant to look more like a real life military uniform...comics are fantasy based though so why do we have to make the costume realistic? Isn't the point of fantasy, fantasy? I can't believe so many of our beloved iconic superheros are undergoing costume changes! If something isn't broken don't fix it! Stop fucking with things Hollywood!
