dc has so much wasted potential it kills me
#sorry for the negativity it's just like. i just talked about kory
#but also look at the storys they choose to tell with Joey Wilson
#and Barbara Gordon
#and Victor Stone
#and how they just squander all of that for the sake of making everything into this manufactured version of normalcy in order to maximize
#profits because the bible of capitalism says that generic-ness equals marketability
#it's just so frustrating that they're never willing to take risks or explore anything more than such a narrow view of the world
#think about the stories they could tell with Tara Markov if they weren't busy focusing on Slade Wilson
#or the stories they could tell about Grace and Anissa
#everything just feels so shallow at dc right now
#they're so willing to discard characters of color while writing the same batman comic 17 times over at once
#tom taylor throws in one poorly written line referencing Dick's Romani heritage and thinks he's a hero??? like really?? this is the bar???
#why can't you get a romani creator to write him???
#why can't you give Duke anything ongoing when there are how many batbooks running????
#you really can't find any disabled woman willing to write Barbara Gordon as orcale? you really think fans prefer babsgirl to her?
#idk if it's a problem with dc or the fandom or both and maybe i'm just out of touch because i only talk to specific people about comics
#but if one of your writers is constantly critiqued and called out about abelism maybe you should actually do something instead of just
#ignoring the issues...
#idk i've been reading old comics with Mal Duncan and it just makes me ask: dc where is he?
#and then i look at so many characters of color who just get discarded completely
#like the fox family bea mal and karen and onyx and orpheus
#the batfam post about black characters getting discarded so quickly makes me question if this happens in other fams as well at dc i just
#have little experience with anyone outside the batfam and titans
#like hello where's anita from young justice??? she just dropped off the face of the earth when teen titans 2003 changed the lineup
#it's especially frustrating when the og creator cares about them and gives them personality and depth (or at least makes them interesting
#or likeable or compelling because let's be real a lot of the og creators are also racist) and then immediately after they leave the
#vision for the character is completely lost
#negativity
#vent post
#dc you made me attached to these characters just to suffer i swear
