Whilst on the one hand the adding in of backstory is useful, it does at times seem like it's desperately trying to be taken seriously and be meaningful, and still be about a man who dresses up as a giant bat fight crime, which is so innately ridiculous as to derail everything else.

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.
