I will partially concur..it's just..what happened to Sue Dibny...she was already dead..we didn't need rape nor was it necessary and it especially didn't need to be shown on panel. That story made me uncomfortable when it came to Dr. Light on a scale that I feared for any woman that shared a panel with him in a book. The whole mind wipe thing could've easily been down without it. I mean in the book they mention how there was a time when the Secret society of Villains switched bodies with the JLAers and learned their secret identities by simply looking in a mirror and removing the masks. THERE! That's all that was needed. But they just had to take that extra step. So it's that one thing that ruins the book, let alone to actually enjoy it.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
