I truly hope she has realized how she helped cause the destruction of the industry. I love the Hearher Antos clip of “if you don’t like my politics, don’t buy my book” only to talk about years later how comic book shops are closing and the industry is hurting.
Gail Simone annoys me because she was the one to whine about “fridging” and acted as if no stories existed where a woman seeks to avenge the death of a husband, boyfriend, brother, father, etc. I think she also shares some blame for the agenda of crapping on male fans and pushing women into comics despite the data showing they don’t have the same interest level as males. They could’ve very easily made some comic book like Twilight to appeal to a female audience.
Anyway, I hope she has truly learned her lesson.
That’s what I’m thinking. Who would’ve thought that hiring a bunch of feminists and activists to run a hobby that generally appeals to males would be a bad idea?
