Data analysis looking at the possible reasons for sales drops, particularly on feminist leaning titles that ignores demographic reasoning, can be a little disingenuous? <br /><br />I think that's what I'm trying to get at. Like, don't ignore our voices and monies Grant, GOD! :PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883899214355622864.post-8855724150933989702012-07-09T12:49:47.984+10:002012-07-09T12:49:47.984+10:00I found the style quite engaging, not being the us...I found the style quite engaging, not being the usual 'superhero' style worked a lot in its favour I found. Subjective opinion though. <br /><br />I remember their being such a rash of announcements of fucking awful misogynistic tropes and the chatter about the book went from everyone raving to noone at all talking about it. From OMG FUCKING FANTASTIC to *crickets chirping*. I don't know a qualitative way of measuring this really (especially given I tend to lurk in strange places) but it just seemed more than could be coincidence?<br /><br />So yeah I'd say it easily lost a large percentage of otherwise interested women at the very _least_. But I might just be hoping.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883899214355622864.post-77898563801408046802012-07-09T12:07:54.548+10:002012-07-09T12:07:54.548+10:00I don't know - do you think a drop that sharp ...I don't know - do you think a drop that sharp would be more likely due to a specific plot point, or the style of the title overall?<br /><br />I found my interest in the title flagged after the first issue, but popped back up in the last three or four.Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05277173223422519172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883899214355622864.post-6067218508598613072012-07-09T11:59:58.811+10:002012-07-09T11:59:58.811+10:00Also I haven't woken up yet apparently.

Including those who would normally find the horror to their tastes. <br /><br />That said, Cliff Chiang's art. Holy fucking cuntstains. That guy can draw strong and sexy but not sexualised like woah. Sad to see he was let down by script really.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
