And as usual, it'll have little to no positive effect. People won't suddenly start reading DC comics because they're all labelled #1 again. Nor will they develop an interest in Bruce Wayne that goes beyond movies just because he's smeared liberally over a dozen different books.
Unfortunately, this stuff doesn't do much for existing readers, either. There's nothing in this world that can get me interested in Hal Jordan, and believe me I've tried. Same goes for Aquaman, the Flash (Barry Allen, at least) and most of the other characters getting pushed to the front of this reboot.
The characters I do like, Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, Donna Troy, Wally West, all seem to be getting shoved out of the way quite forcibly.
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.
