With comic book fans it’s always “current [character] is so out of character because in [specific comic run from 30 years ago] he acted like this.”
Fellas, the best part of comics is that the characters constantly evolve, and probably have been changed over and over again for longer than you’ve been alive. Each writer and artist reimagines the character in their own way, in a new way that will speak to different people in a different time. I shamelessly love New 52 Red Hood & Arsenal, and don’t really like Three Jokers Jason Todd or Young Justice Arsenal. And that’s okay. Maybe you hate New 52 Jason and love Rebirth Jason. And that’s okay!!
Even though it’s irritating, don’t hate on writers and artists for creating your character in a way that you don’t find “accurate.” In comics, after all this time, I don’t think there is an “accurate” way to portray a character. They’re vessels to tell a story, and are meant to change.
It’s okay if you don’t like a certain portrayal of your favorite comic character, because you probably already have media out there to consume that does portray them in a way that speaks to you, and the character will probably continue to grow and change forever. And that’s really cool.
putting a cute lesbian date (that turned out to be a psychotic murder... strange but yes, that's so sapphic) with a Cigaretts After Sex song in the background IN THE SAME EPISODE WITH THESE LINES "I think it's best if we stop seeing one another. Or, I don't know, I've been rather confused. I realised... human connections were never easy for me when I was alive. And now that I'm dead, they seem to bring somehow even more baggage" and the "swings scene" really hit me (a lesbian with the avoidant attachment style) hard.
