British comic creator R.E. Burke banned from visiting USA for 10 years was the most-read story on Bleeding Cool yesterday again. On Instagram, she writes "Inside the facility, you never get to rest. There is no reprieve from the fear and exhaustion. I was only there for 19 days, but most women have to face a much longer period of suffering, of uncertainty, of isolation. I want you to know their stories. They are not what you might imagine. They are confused and scared: lots do not know why they are there. Lots are there to avoid cruelty in other countries. No one deserves this." Lying In The Gutters is the daily runaround for the most-read stories the day before – as well as over the past six years. Founded sixteen years ago and steeped in a history of comic book industry gossip a further eighteen years before that, Bleeding Cool has become one of the longest-standing and most well-known pop culture websites around.
