I made the mistake of looking at DC's website and ran smack-dab into this on the front page.

I don't read many comics with Harley Quinn in them so I only really see stuff about her through the marketing DC does. I'm under the impression right now that outside of farting and being gay there's nothing else going on with the character. DC really need to learn how to show off their characters better.

Still mad that they ruined Poison Ivy. I don't even care if she's bisexual but shacking up with Harley Quinn of all people is bizarre. Poison Ivy is basically supposed to hate humans, if anything she should be dating a hippie.

Yes but there were those episodes of Batman: The Animated Series where they teamed up that a bunch of people loved so clearly that means they belong together.

I also hate the way they've tried to 'fix' Ivy in the name of political correctness. She's an irredeemable monster, not some misunderstood lady who just wants everyone to get along. She sees plants the way other people see their fellow humans, and humans the way people see plants. That's what makes her interesting, her morality is skewed in a way to mean she sees no value in human life, but is desperately trying to protect plant life.
 
Ivy is a rapist, prior to her softening, she was one of the most vile of Batman’s rogues and absolutely deserved being dragged kicking and screaming into that hell-prison. Most of them deserve the nightmare, Morrison Arkham Asylum, but Ivy really earned her spot.

Penguin, sadistic runt though he may be, never devised new ways to turn humans into plants or make plants that eat people and digest them.

She was awesome for it, genuine meta-human powerhouse heavyweight like Freeze and Clayface, that really sells the idea that Batman caused a “new breed” of criminal to rise up.

Ivy is a femme Fatale. I think she should be just as abusive to Harley as the Joker is but in a different way

I am not reposting that picture for like ninth time, but back in 90s, they prototyped (and almost officially released) a BTAS figure with Harley and Ivy embracing (and Catwoman creeping under their feet), so Harley literally was intended and always existed as fanservice character.

think the idea, at first, involved it being a Thelma and Louise type of thing. Add on some shenanigans, etc.

Then they kept pushing it as a gay thing. I think it's probably a way that Ivy's using pheromones to ensure Harley never harms her as Ivy's seen enough of what Joker and his ilk can do at a coin's toss

Nah, they had shipping-themed figurine as BTAS merch which got vetoed late enough that there was an entire run printed

It's kinda funny how Kamala is a RL Poochie writers try to force people into liking her... And failing every time, every time she shows up becoming more of a Mary Sue.

He was very abusive to Sue apparently. Never mind the fact that she could literally level him and their house into the sun. (I believe she's like omega level superhero.....essentially she's one of the most powerful)

Also human torch more like flaming.

any outright abusiveness done in the mainstream is extremely contrived and just boils down to "Reed should pay more attention to her, but she does kinda get why he's so absorbed with his work".
 
Yeah, any actual abusiveness or 'toxicity' in Reed and Sue's relationship comes from faggy modern writers who use Reed as a punching bag for their daddy issues or their own relationship problems. Classically, the worst Reed would do is go into his lab to work on a project and not realize a week has passed, thereby ignoring his wife (and later, children) for days at a time.

I'd rather make Sue the bad guy then Reed.
 
I always liked Mark Waid’s Reed, carrying that guilt. It was a very good moment when he’s putting Valeria to bed and you get a peak into the quiet pain, the knowledge that he fucked up the lives of the three people who love him unconditionally. Sure it worked out, but he turned his best friend into a monster and the tables turned, Reed gets to be the rockstar while big man on campus is disfigured.
 
Has Sue ever defeated Galactus? Always wondered how she'd do against the likes of say, Thanos or Phoenix. I read somewhere they did some finicky shit with her force field abilities

"Now more than ever queer people like me have been turning to comics for support"

Yea....that explains it. Can't just enjoy something that's been around for 100 years gotta make it complete trash and fag it up.

Featuring the pink "Rhinoceress" and villains with catch phrases like "like and subscribe" because that's the catchphrase of "real life super villains"....no really

He did have a few moments of "wives are for kissing, not talking" during Lee's run, but that was a common sentiment at the time and Reed was an older guy whose hair was going gray, so of course he'd have those values. It doesn't make him a monster or abusive, it just makes him a man from a different time. Which, to those modern writers, is exactly the same thing.

Came up with another one

"Tony Stark might be extremely rich... but, man, you're a spider."
