A quick thought about women and ethnic groups in...
You have to be vocal! Pop culture is a very interesting machine these days. There are very few people, most of them male and Caucasian, who are in charge of deciding what gets made into a movie, TV show or comic book. They need voices to question them. They need voices to inspire them or fuel them, to rethink some of the things that they’re doing and make a better product.

Invisible Children and Kony 2012 →

DC Comics to relaunch Shazam on March 27 -... →
Ugh. According to the article, Captain Marvel’s name will be changed to “Shazam” And his costume will be changed to this hoodie version below.
He still changes to Billy Batson but has “a penchant for causing electrical appliances to explode.” Great, so I guess he won’t be working at Sears. The Big Red Cheese has a strong and loyal following, I can’t...
