bluejeans07Dear Fox News,
First of all, good for you that picking up that DC Comics did a bad bad thing. However, you completely missed what it exactly it did. Let me break it down for you in list form so that it'll be easy for you to understand.
List of Things that DC did Wrong
1. Made at least two major female characters become nothing but vacant sex dolls.
2. Made it so that most of the people writing and drawing the books are in one demographic.
3. Chopped up their superhero roster to only 52 heroes, most of whom are in one clear racial and gender demographic.
4. Didn't actually make a big enough change to try to attract new readers outside of their current demographic.
List of Things DC did Right
1. Introduced more LGBT characters in their main line up.
3. Follows a completely voluntary rating system to make it clear which age groups should be reading which comics.
List of Things Fox got WRONG
1. Completely missed the fact that the new 52 comics are rated T FOR TEEN and are not meant for CHILDREN.
2. Didn't report at ALL on what DC has available for comics for children: Young Justice the animated series comics, Batman: Braave and the Bold comics, Tiny Titans, etc.
3. Comics are not a 'family friendly genre', rather it's a medium of storytelling that has genres within it ranging from children, romance, foreign, horror, fantasy, science fiction, adult, etc.
4. Failed to include that LGBT adults are also part of the whole, "sex is an act between two consenting mature individuals who care deeply for one another."
5. Starfire is NOT Red Hood's girlfriend.
Now please do your research again and report properly on the facts, not what's going inside your crazy, Mrs. Lovejoy-esque mind. Perhaps then I will actually take you seriously as a source of information.
Sincerely,
Me.
