The super-hero comics fans that aren’t socially inept freaks should quit trying to fight to prove they aren’t geeks too, and the art comics fans that aren’t useless fucking snobs that talk about French literary criticism need to stop trying to prove they aren’t assholes. The reason why football freaks don’t defend their obsession isn’t just because watching football is really popular, it’s because most of them don’t give a shit what people who don’t like football say about them. I read comics, all of them, love doing it. I don’t need to defend comics or defend the fans, or defend myself. Because — and seriously, wake the fuck up, I can’t stress this part of my opinion more clearly — who. cares. what. people. think. If you’re upset because somebody called a fat guy “fat” and said he should wash his Flash t-shirt, then you clearly need to spend more time finding things worth getting upset about.
