Comics For Joplin Tornado Relief
My name is Jason A. Hurley, my brother and I own a comic shop called Hurley's Heroes in Joplin, Missouri. This last weekend, Joplin was hit by a deadly tornado that wiped out a huge chunk of town. Several hundred, perhaps even thousands, of families were put out of their homes. Now, hundreds of children are stuck inside huge shelters, and no doubt bored out of their minds. We've taken a few books from the store to a shelter nearby, and they were greatly appreciated. I've been inspired, and I want to make this effort bigger.
Last week Entertainment Weekly called it "a stripper outfit". Yesterday on the Beat someone said it made her look like a "prostitute." I've also heard hooker, slut, streetwalker and plenty of other descriptors. So much fail. What Wonder Woman wears has nothing to do with her sex life or anyone's sex life or work.
"Man, when I was 14, it never in a million years would have occurred to me to pick up a telephone, call Murray Boltinoff at DC, and tell him that his books sucked. And now…look, I appreciate that, to some small degree, internet fan access is an extension of the way Stan Lee made Marvel successful by making all the readers feel part of the family…but over time and unchecked, that's led to the utterly false presumption among the more vocal netizens that they're entitled to be in the room with us while we work so they can look over our shoulders and second-guess and micromanage every last little decision we make."
McKean Draws a Sexy "Celluloid" – Comic Book Resources
"But sex is happily part of most people's lives, and crosses the mind most days, I would say, even if it's just watching your partner get out of bed in the morning. All my stories tend to be about things that mean a lot to me and may be fragmented through dream imagery, or metaphorical settings, but basically, my stories are just about the people and places in my life."
