Anonymous asked: Ok so I will address this new Spider-Woman series without being passive-aggressive. I LOVE the fact that there will be NINE solo female series at Marvel and I can appreciate the move to support more female creators on books, but putting an artist that is notorious for tracing pornography and turning it in to superhero comics on one of the few Marvel solo female books does seems at best problematic and at worst counteractive.

Sorry you don’t like the artistic casting on that series.

Fortunately, as you point out, there are eight other books that you can choose to read instead.

Not every comic book is for every reader.

I actually like this question and I like Tom’s answer.

I would go one step further and challenge Tom as to who this book is actually for? Who is the target audience? Is Greg paired with this book to draw a male demographic in order to bolster sales?

While I hate that the tits and ass crowd needs to be pandered to in order sustain more female-led solo titles, I’m more than willing to accept $$$ as a reason rather than “Greg Land’s art is appropriate for this book and not all books are for everyone.”
