Repost but it’s a great one. Also there’s this that got cut off by reddit.
A black woman reacts to Alan Moore ibcluding the living incarnation of blackface in his comic
https://andweshallmarch.typepad.com/and_we_shall_march/the_black_dossier/
The main problem with this is that LoEG was always about exploring the baggage of characters. The parts that got left behind as they got cleaned up and sanitized. Like Allan Quartermain’s drug use or Nemo’s casual murderousness and racism. You can’t feature the Golliwog in a work like that and not mention racism or how uncomfortable it is talking to a living breathing blackface caricature. Even Dianey knew better than to use the Mandarin from the comics. That’s why he’s a more civilized Genghis Khan instead of Fu Manchu in Legend of the Ten Rings.

Yeah, it's a funny kind of blindness, because we see how we connected some things but can't always see why we connected them that way.

Loving comic books is pain. Don Rosa once referred to the modern comic book market as “miserable” I hate the arrogance and contempt in that statement. I hate the smug condescendion in it. I hate the dismissiveness of it. I also hate that he’s completely right.

What are your thoughts on the manga market vs western comic market. Manga seems to be doing well no?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Manga still has variety. It ain’t all Shonen. There are three or four Golf mangas going right now. Golf manga. What do American comic books have to offer? Superhero comics are the only game left in town, and those haven’t been good since the nineties, and I’m being overly generous here. The American comic book industry is dead, and we are just vultures tearing at it’s corpse. Alan Moore tried to do new things, but his essential spark seems to have been snuffed out. Cinema Purgatoria was like a fricking Chick Tract. I don’t even know if Arachnae or Top Shelf is still publishing comics.

Manga is even worse imo when it comes to variety, despite going into "new" territory the stories are all the same, doesn't matter if it's tennis, golf, lazer tag, or hacky sack. Japanese readers are even more conservative than western ones, and require an almost slavish adherence to tired tropes, to the point where even the subversion of those tropes becomes unoriginal and repetitive.
One of the most interesting things to me is that the further back you go in Japanese manga/anime the more relatable the characters and artstyles are to western audiences. The stories, the characters, the lives depicted are very obviously written by people who were at least somewhat normalstrags. Especially in seinen works, the working adults/college students/high schoolers depicted went from people that most normies could sympathize with to almost exclusively some variant of an outcast/loser/nerd. Otaku culture has almost completely absorbed all of anime and manga, and it's ultimately a net negative.

Japan has slowly become a less and less human friendly society

True, the developments I'm complaining about are probably accurate to how Japanese society has changed. It's just weird, even as recently as the early 2000s you could find works that depict relatively normal relationships that western audiences could relate to.
The one thing that has remained constant though is the rampant libertarianism, maybe it's less overt now with the main characters usually matching the age of their paramours, but back then it wasn't uncommon to see authors seriously depict idealized relationships between adult men and teenaged girls. Japan's obsession with high school girls hasn't changed a single bit.

Why are they keeping the fishman in a public swimming pool? Does he have to get out of the pool to use the bubbler because he can’t actually drink chlorinated water?

It's not well explained, the swimming pool. No, the water doesn't matter to him. There's crime, full penetration as Carpy r*pes her for a while then the comic just sort of ends. I'm not joking

Even Lovecraft didn’t have the Deep Ones as male feminists. They actually married the humans before mating with them. Part of the horror of the story was normal New England townsfolk voluantarily laying root to a bunch of freaky viswyf. Yes, it wasn’t just woman riding the fish stick. Blokes were also supposed to sleep with the fishes.
