Wait is Skip older than Peter or are they the same age? Also, whose idea was it to make Skip look like Uncle Ben? This feels a lot like the Superman issue where Lois changes her race. Good intentions but a bad execution.
I wish they would do more comics like this every year - both of the big 2. It doesn't need to be part of a story arc or anything. Just once a year, to reach any kids they can.
... And full disclosure, I cried reading this. It is not a perfect comic but it took the issue head-on.
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.
