Re: Fuck you, Frank Cho

Yeah honestly, I hated how Cho responded (not the drawings but the actual things he's said) but I also feel like there shouldn't have been articles about it in the first place. He'll just feed off the whole thing like the troll he is and all of us will keep having to see it.

I am all for more discussions about how women are portrayed in comics but this may have been one of those cases where fandom should have chosen a different target.

Yep. Getting mad at Cho for drawing what he does -and especially for how long he's been doing it- is like getting mad at the rain for being wet at this point. One can complain about it until one's face turns purple, but that's not going to change anything. For the record, I don't care what he draws -whether it be his own characters or established ones in for-hire work-, but his attitude leaves a lot to be desired and then some.

It sucks that we can't really have a mature, thoughtful discussion about women in comics with people like Cho. IMO, giving people like him attention only makes things worse, and only strengthens the mindset of the idiots who keep clamoring for a "ComicsGate"-type controversy to derail all the positive work being done in the industry to become more inclusive of people who aren't straight cis white males. At least there's other artists who are willing to listen and engage in discussion without resorting to acting like a petulant kid.
