Bitches! (Stupid Comic Book Edition)

Circa 1987. It's true that the Avengers did not work so well under women: they lost to the bad guys and were killed in each and every issue.

Also, fuck them if they can't handle a woman boss. Avengers? More like Whingers; February 28, 2010 at 12:41 AM

Baron Zemo did rip up a picture of Bucky in front of Captain America's eyes, and we all know Bucky's a sore spot. Or itchy spot. How would you put that?; February 28, 2010 at 7:03 AM

Big Bad Bald Bastard said...: So, among the Avengers' "Conservative Men", I see a pagan god, a half-fish eco-warrior, a bisexual pagan demigod, and a hippy-dippy tree-hugging Druid. What is our letter writer talking about?; February 28, 2010 at 7:51 PM

Not.; March 3, 2010 at 8:13 PM

Yup.

The editors responded pretty well without writing FUCK YOU which I believe the Comics Code Authority would not have gone for.; March 3, 2010 at 10:33 PM
