Finally thank god. Though I'm going to be very interested to see the sales analytics between Rucka's run, Robinson's shitshow, and the upcoming Willow run once we get a chance for those to be out. DC and Marvel love to claim they make decisions based ons sales figures but I'm willing to bet this particular glaring example will show otherwise

Yeah, that’s definitely going to be interesting to compare. Robinson says he was asked to stay on beyond his initial six months because he was delivering the fortnightly scripts on time, which I think is the perfect nutshell argument against the fortnightly release schedule.

The only problem with sending Jason off like this is that, sadly, he could still come back. At any given moment I might be forced to just...SEE him again. Like I'm just minding my own business, doing my thing, then all of a sudden BAM! That fucker's back! Blhurhgrh.

Well, in our favour, he’s out of sight, out of mind and easily ignored, and at this point he’s such an outrageously unlikeable and overpowered character that most writers in their right minds wouldn’t touch him.

Ahhh thanks :)

1. Favorite female leader/ruler/royalty

Arianne Martell from A Song of Ice and Fire is an absolute badass, but unlike this 'badass women who never fuck up' trope that Hollywood has been obsessed with for two decades now, Arianne makes mistakes. She has weaknesses that do not invalidate her personhood, and she has strengths that make her feel so real. She wants what belongs to her, same as any other character, and she's not afraid to put herself out there in order to get it. Arianne embraces the most feminine parts of her self as well as the most masculine, and I love that about her.

5. Favorite female minor character

I LOVE the older professor who first intimidates Elle Woods in Legally Blonde during her first class at Harvard. She only shows up a few times, but I love how she treats everyone the same and she affirms Elle's abilities in her highs and lows.

13. Favorite ladies who are also nemeses

In Gail Carson Levine's book The Two Princesses of Bamarre, I love the relationship between Princess Addie and the dragon Vollys. They have to spend so much time together and even though they each know exactly how this relationship has to play out, they pretend like it could go otherwise. When Vollys confronts Addie in the final battle, it stresses me out, but it's also so bittersweet and sad in its own way.

17. A lady you root for when no one else does

I’m glad I’ve found the niche of people rooting for Catelyn Stark, because these wonderful humans are few and far between. Even though tumblr is friendlier to her than most, there are still people who don’t recognize her strength and worth as a person and as a character, and that makes me sad. Catelyn is able to see when her son's path is going to a bad place even when no one else does, and although she gives him wise counsel, she still allows him to make his own mistakes because she knows that's how it has to be. She doesn't step outside of the boundaries society has placed a woman of her status into, and that doesn't make her any weaker of a character or a person.
