BW Media Spotlight 
Excellent post. I’m guessing my art soundoff is one of those you’re responding to so i just wanted to add to what I said in that post a little addendum.
I totally agree that we just need fun stories a lot of the time & I have no desire to make everything I do messaged or political. That would be intensely dull & crazy making.
My real point was if you have something to say that can be expressed in a way that can move, then don’t be afraid to say it.
Likewise if you can bring more Skeletors, Mumm-Ra’s & Duffenschmirtz’s into my life or if any come from me then I would be a very happy boy.
Even with audio & video it can be hard to fully communicate what we mean on-line. It’s just one of those ironies of mixing technology & people I think.

We actually agree. My point was that a number of the critics in the community I’m part of think that unless you have deep character development, a cynical view…look how may people think Man Of Steel is the best take on Superman! I don’t want to do deep character studies or think “flawed” means being a jerk. I just want to help people relax and see the bad guys beaten without some revenge fantasy being in play.

Politics should stay out of entertainment, and entertainment should stay out of politics.
