Bitching time!

Can people please stop complaining about Dr. Light appearing in Tiny Titans? "Oh my God, but he is a rapist!" No, he is not a rapist; not in Tiny Titans. It is obvious none of the regular Teen Titans villains in Tiny Titans are their regular selves or even villains for that matter. Darkseid as a lunch lady instead of a cosmic god of fascism should clue you in a little.

So no, Dr. Light is not going to drop his pants and start thrusting his penis at the Tiny Titans any time soon no matter how much you beg for it to happen. For that matter Darkseid is not going to start slaving the universe, Trigon won't bring hell to Earth and Deathstroke won't put his peepee inside Tiny Terra. Weird nobody complains about Deathstroke, which makes me thing they get the joke but completely miss the exact same joke but with another character.

And now let's look at this: The Lost Ten Commandments of Comics

now, as far as "all comics should be like I say they should be" manifestos go, this one is pretty innocuous, but this rule just pissed me off:

". Thou shalt not create new characters just to spice up an old series.
Is anyone here old enough to remember when Kitty Pryde first emerged? Yes, she's all kickass and reinvented as a womanly source of vital power now (thank you Mr. Whedon), but when she first arrived on the scene it seemed a lot like she'd been introduced simply to deal with the fact that the X-Men were turning into young adults, and the audience was still jonesing for some of that more relatable kid/mutie action. Maybe this only bothered me. Maybe I'm being cruel, but it was the first time I noticed it, and it felt a lot like when all the little kids on The Cosby Show turned 40 and so they randomly brought on a new one."

I'm fairly confident that I don't need to explain why this rule is retarded and how many great characters we wouldn't have now if people had actually done this. I am not even going to discuss it. I'm just putting that there and I'm 100% sure nobody who still reads this will need help figuring out how dumb it is. There is no need to write a reply to this post. You can do it if you want to, but I'm so sure you KNOW that there is no need for that. Really.
