Well. What was supposed to be a simple Deep Dive into Chris Kent’s character’s history has turned into three solid days of rereading dozens of comics that give me Feelings and Opinions, catching up on the current Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps, of all things, and is now turning into a script for a 30 minute discussion on the evolution of character treatment from the late 2000s to now, the exploitation of realistic trauma and comparisons to real life child abuse, and the fundamental issues with media’s portrayal of biological families and adopted families as being diametrically opposed, especially when it’s used to emphasize the impact of abusive/evil parents dooming children to abuse/evil from a generational guilt.
What turned into a costume evaluation for Cassandra Cain has become five scripted pages (and going!) of explaining event histories and inter-connective histories of characters in comic book continuity.
I guess what I’m saying is:
While I’m working on these two video projects, are there a few smaller questions about comics that people have that I could answer in a simpler Q&A style video to practice with? XD
