So this cover:



Has all the twitter social justice whiner brigade up in arms about its apparent glorification of sexual violence. When in reality its a variant cover, and is referencing one of the most iconic events in the batman lore and comic history.

Rick Priestley said it best:
Bryan always said that if the studio ever had to mix with the manufacturing and sales part of the business it would destroy the studio. And I have to say – he wasn’t wrong there! The modern studio isn’t a studio in the same way; it isn’t a collection of artists and creatives sharing ideas and driving each other on. It’s become the promotions department of a toy company – things move on!

.. There may well have been a discussion to have here, but seeing as the OP is apparently incapable of discussing things like an adult we won't bother.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.
