Clown to Clown Communication

the worst thing about modern green lantern lore aside from the military psyop nonsense is the fact that people have convinced themselves hal is supposed to be played by the allegedly hunkiest military adjacent white man alive when he is canonically literally a loser. he is a horse girl for planes he has no job 90% of the time he doesn’t know how to keep a relationship bc he has no personal stability he has to pay his way through meals by asking the boss he’s hopelessly in love with and his two sugar daddies to do it. this is the world’s biggest meow meow given the universe’s most dangerous weapon so he can be consumed by it until the point he’s willing to fling himself into the sun he should look like that meme of bugs bunny sitting on the edge of his bed looking like he regrets being born

The other worst thing is people being convinced John Stewart is a military hunk who is the stoic straight man of the group and can't awknowledge any feeling other than anger or manly straight love, when he's actually the weirdest nerd you've ever met. John can quote paragraphs from 37 different books about philosophy. He sees Hal walking straight into a glass door and try to play it off as intentional and goes "wow. he's so cool... I hope I can be just as cool as him one day..." John watches the sunrise in space every day because it's so pretty and he cries every time. He stares down at the Earth without moving for five hours, doing an entire philosophical speech that no one hears. You hire John to design you a house and before he shows you the plans he spends 65 minutes telling you about how much beauty and symbolism he put in there and when you look at it, it's the ugliest house you've ever seen and quite honestly, it might be a hazard.

And never forget that one of the reasons so many Jewish-Americans contributed to comics is because of the antisemitism in much of the creative sector in 20th century America. Many of these highly skilled and creative people ended up in comics because they couldn’t find work in more prestigious and lucrative fields.

also the same reason so many of them worked in the motion picture industry when it first began; working in film wasnt a respected line of work, so it kinda became a jewish culture, and when film unexpectedly caught on, upper-middle class white christians were quick to erase the jewish influence that the film industry had. also similar to the reason why so many jews in the past millennium worked in finance- in the 1100s it was considered sinful in the christian church to handle large amounts of money, so banking in western Europe was kind of the only profession in which Jews were guaranteed a secure income. because banking was a Jewish thing because it was sinful, when it became a respected profession, the upper-middle class and elites were quick to smear the Jewish involvement in banking as an evil conspiracy to control the world

nice addition thank u^👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼✡️

gonna add real quick that two Jewish men actually created Batman. Bill Finger was uncredited for years, but he is responsible for Batman’s look, backstory, personality,, setting etc. Bob Kane is responsible for the name and that’s pretty much it.

I’m surprised nobody has mentioned this already but a jewish man also invented what we now call graphic novels. His name is Will Eisner and the most prestigious comic book awards were named after him. He drew the Spirit comics as well as many graphic novels like A Contract with God, New York: The Big City and many many more. He also wrote and illustrated two books about making comics and sequential art. He was a fucking genius of visual narrative, character design and ripping your heart out with his stories.
