FUNKYWATCH LIVES.
Today on the ISB, I’ve rounded up April’s most depressing Funky Winkerbean and Crankshaft strips. Death, cancer, deadbeat dads… and also Crankshaft.
Thank the mercilessly cruel God of the Funkyverse that even AOL couldn’t kill this feature.
I wrote about a Superman discussion that was brought up in a piece over at Racialicious:
So it was weird for me to see someone (Jeff Parker) saying “less Krypton! less Jor-El!” — to which my response was a resounding “yes!” — before then going into “being an alien isn’t crucial to his character! something something Americana and shit!” Now, this is Superman: we can all have different takes on such an iconic character and they can almost all be valid… but no, this take is demonstrably wrong.
I said more than that, some stuff about the immigrant narrative, and why despite the importance of that I do like certain aspects of Krypton being downplayed.
It does kinda bug me out that a real life professional comic book creator would get something so simple so wrong, though.
