#those variant covers for issue 1 seem kind of disrespectful as hell

The other thing about this Doom Patrol I dont like is all the allegory shit. Thats part of why the name scene not involving a trans character bothered me. We had Kate Godwin show up in the 90s and be a actual trans woman and now in 2023 were having the “respect peoples chosen names!” conversation with characters in supernatural situations only. Not even fucking Chief or anyone else in Jane’s system mentioned for that one, other characters with real world stuff that would be good for that conversation. I dont know man

#Like come on you couldve just had someone say 'oh like with Kate! Or like with with Chief!' #This is why Im like eyes twitching about Peacemaker being here by the way #because this run seems to be doing like superpowers as allegories for real world oppression and primarily so far it seems like #being LGBT and having mental issues is the main type of stuff its allegory'ing and we have the guy with #schizophrenia and a character history of just trying to fucking live while everybody is horrible to him about it here doing bad guy things #Its issue 3 so Im still giving it a chance (I will keep reading no matter what if Peacemaker keeps showing up.) but #yeah if they ignore all the that with him Im probably gonna be annoyed and uncomfortable #Also yeah I know Doom Patrol's always done this but the Pollack run at least did it really well you'd think #other writers would just also do that. #this run also seems really shitty about Jane's system right now by the way #those variant covers for issue 1 seem kind of disrespectful as hell #I know every Doom Patrol run is shitty about it but come onnnn cant someone just try to do better
