Shadowplay 05/25/17 1:22:29 AM #123:	ChromaticAngel posted... Kineth posted... Anarchy_Juiblex posted... TheVipaGTS posted... It was canceled because of special snowflakes like this who got offended. No it was canceled because no one bought it. Overlapping demographics would suggest that what Vipa said quite possibly played a role in that. No. It's because they tried to appeal to a vocal crowd who doesn't read their fucking shit. "Wah wah wah I can't read this comic because straight white males if you did something else I'd read it." so they do something else and surprise surprise no one fucking reads it. Having stories about black people in which the main point of the story is that they're black is shitty storytelling in most cases. It works out well when the story is about real life (such as Moonlight) and not about capeshit punching robot cops. You should treat characters as if they're people first and foremost, and their labels secondary. Simon Baz talks about having been imprisoned in Gitmo, and the harassment his family faces, but the comic is, first and foremost, still a story about him cooperating with Jessica to punch Aliens in the face in the name of the Green Lantern Corps and not a twitter hashtag.
