ok now I know no-one cares about the manhunter solos (not you kate you have your diehard stans and absolutely deserve them <3) but i just……hate the retcons in Kate’s series about how they were all just on drugs/used by the government, it feels lazy and boring and maybe I’m just attached to ostrander’s wonderful manhunter run complete with all its played-for-laughs-in-2004 talking lion samurai and stuff; but. I just hate it im sorry, i hate mark’s rapid reentry and then his apparent schizophrenia (?) or breakdown into murder that never gets cleaned up enough for me, i hate the way his supporting cast, his storyline it’s all just kind of dismissed and forgotten and i KNOW that’s just what happens in comics but I’d rather he go back to his friends then idk, have no-one, driving around lackadaisical and also retconning it so all the emotional material and weight of his book was just an elaborate ploy or something.
