The problem with comics more than f**king ever. No accountability, no morality. Membrane-thin permanence.

Coming off of AxV and the ludicrous line-ups for the revamped teams is a bottoming out of my giving a fuck about funny books. What I find most disheartening about modern tights is the utter lack of moral accountability. I know the shit is like wrestling, what with heel turns and surprise redemption  I get it. But the quickness with which characters switch sides and find valorous behavior and forgiveness is fucking mesmerizing. Combine that with the continual return of people from the depths of Oblivion and you have a lack of gravitas that’s unacceptable in a world where lack of permanence and gravitas is acceptable. I can’t even be asked to give a fuck for a year about a character’s genocide, murder, suicide, salvation  et cetera. It’s a grand anesthetic within a world of tropes where if done properly, all of these things are okay. I can’t find myself fucking caring anymore, and I’m not sure why I should even try.
