Date: 2011-02-10 05:59 am (UTC)Soo if it wasn't for this, the best I would have read this week would be The Walking Dead which isn't DC and had a death in it (possibly) of a character I like. So that's saying something. (and not just because I expect deaths in that...) But seriously...

Date: 2011-02-10 06:16 am (UTC)Hahaha also the line when Klarion is like "How did you know about that?!" right after Steph has given some snark that he was totally clueless to.
Yeah, reading the Cassie scene... idk, it seems like more and more lately I'm seeing female characters in comics and other mediums that are being written by men and are just reacting pleasantly and as though they're in the wrong when they're completely railroaded by a male character. IDK, really sets a bad precedent.

Date: 2011-02-10 02:27 pm (UTC)It's sad. I mean, maybe if it had been an isolated incident in a week that didn't completely suck, or if it had been someone else talking, like Rose, I mean Rose saying pretty much that Cassie sucked as a leader is canon, and it's totally not for Bart. (I mean it's canon under a writer who doesn't care about any character except making Tim look good at the expense of everyone else, not under a writer who actually knows the characters)
I just hope it doesn't continue... :/

Date: 2011-02-10 03:50 pm (UTC)I get it! The writer thinks that Tim is the best character ever! But why must he tear down the other characters to make Tim look better?
At least Batgirl soothed my nerdrage.

Too limited in talent to know any better.

Date: 2011-02-11 07:27 pm (UTC)to me it sounded like two things, people reverted to tim's leadership out of Habit, he was the leader of the Titans for a good while. plus they miss him. so they are being over eager. was it RUDE to wonder girl? on one hand, yes, on the other hand no.
let me see if i can state this right....
if they were saying "sorry cass" and meant it in that "Sorry but we are following Tim's lead on this" yeah that is plain rude.
if they meant it "Sorry Cass, we didn't mean to make it seem like we are choosing him" then it was more the excitement of the moment. while that might be soem what rude, it is not as rude as the first.
the third option is that they all started following Tim's lead because it IS Tim's case and he more than likely knows more than they do and already has plan. in which case the state its more "Sorry Cass we should have defered to you"
now the fact that this panel is left very ambiguous i think is what causes most of the problems..
i hope i illustrated my points well enough... i am not saying it was okay, it was sloppy work in an otherwise GREAT issue

Date: 2011-02-13 12:02 pm (UTC)My own take was that it was thoughtless rudeness rather than conscious cruelty. I think that Cassie handled it with immense grace, given that she did Tim the favour of bringing her team to assist him and instead of treating her as a partner, she got dismissed. It was meant to make Tim look like a natural leader; instead it made him look thoughtless and rude.
