ugh. I don't understand DC's obsession with having guys raped and then not even treating it like it's at all important. Hell, did they actually retcon rape into Damien's conception?

And then there's poor Ollie who got raped and straight up blamed and yelled at for it by Black Canary (which was so stupid and I just have to pretend she never did that because it just doesn't make sense. ilu Black Canary, I don't blame you for that shitty writing)

*didn't they

Seriously. With the recent attempted rape of Tim where he pretty much went "Oh, rape? Okay whatever" totally nonchalant like it was an expected rite of bat passage I just had to give up. DC, YOU HAVE A FUCKING PROBLEM. Everyone needs to step away from the rape storylines already.

Yeah, it's really frustrating that sexual assault seems to just be a cheap go to plot device only used for melodrama

Or they'll use it to make bad guys seem even worse. Have a villain that doesn't seem quite evil enough? Make him a rapist to really get the point across! (I think Dr. Light was a pretty infamous example of this. It got to the point where fans were like "They might as well go ahead and rename him Dr. Rape" And I think it was Plastic Man who joked that one of his super powers was probably rape, because that's all he talked about)

I dunno. The Dr. Light one actually seemed to be one of the better ones.

Mind, that shows you more how shit the rest were. EVERYBODY GET IN THE FRIDGE

Damian*

/nerd

They don't have very talented writers handling those situations very well. Hell, rape in general always seems extremely poorly handled in any context in comics.

Indeed. The only one that actually seemed to have a "reasonable" outcome was poor Gloria Stanson, and she was a plot device for a controversy that had nothing to do with her, in the end. 20 years later I still hope Jason did actually shove that sonofabitch to his death. Don't care if Robins aren't "supposed" to do that.

And if one looks at things from the skewed reality that cape comics create as a genre, Jessica Jones.
