Hey just curious, do u have any thoughts on Tai Pham, the Viet Green Lantern? I think his ao dai uniform is cool, although his grandma’s story might be more interesting than his ngl

yeah! i have so many thoughts. sorry this response is gonna be long i was cooking this for a league of comic geeks review that i haven’t started writing.

i definitely liked the áo dài green lantern uniform for him as well :3 i remember the first time i read it i thought it would be funny for bà nội in her older age to wear áo bà ba instead

personally i think the main issue i have (which i have for a lot of recent dc stuff coming out) is that the story seemed bigger than the actual length of it. just spending more time with tai would be cool. i liked that it was about gentrification; i wish there was more personal feelings tying me to tai’s character arc. and i felt like i could see the story structure in a way that i can see moana is the hero’s journey.

i wish they had lines of dialogue written in việt rather than having <translated from việt> written under a speech bubble & then they could have had translations in the panel gutters but that’s fine

also i would have preferred for green lanterns to stay mostly adults. i just think that’s something that made them pretty distinct from other superheroes & set the tone for sci fi stuff & the other green lantern comics are pretty adult

THAT ALL BEING SAID, i do adore him :) it was a good read. i love how many việt ppl r in dc comics recently (i love love love batgirl 2023 #2) (and any comics in general shout out The Magic Fish, shout out The Best We Could, shout out onenhillion on Twitter)

shout out ppl with the last name phạm such a fire name

I want to take a moment to appreciate the absolute love and attention to detail that went into Sam Black/Britain/Butler's art for Season 2

Obviously Sam is insanely beautiful and the fit is EVERYTHING.

But specifically? Look at her knees. The way her thigh fat kind of rolls over her kneecap.

Look at the way her thighs are rendered so they look like cellulite instead of being perfectly smooth.

Look at her double chin.

Sam Butler isn't just big and beautiful. She is FAT. And beautiful. She's fashionable, she's famous, she's stunning, and she's allowed to be Capital F Fat at the same time.

Not to mention, she's a TTRPG character. Danielle could have made her look like anything, and she CHOSE to let Sam be fat. In a fantasy world where you can be anything and anyone you want, Danielle Radford chose to play a fat character.

As a fat guy, Sam holds such a special place in my heart. The level of respect and love for her, both from the players at the table and the fandom at large, is such an incredible feeling.

You mentioned dog beauty standards - what would they be? What would the ideal dog look like in their time and place?

I think a few common human beauty standards can be applied to dog people as well. Symmetrical features, balanced proportions, cleanliness, good health, good teeth, good posture, pleasant voice and confident gait.

In Vasco's and Machete's setting, men are expected to be athletic but youthful, have enough muscle definition to appear virile and sculptural but also retain some natural curves. An ideal woman is delicate and feminine but also full-figured, soft bodied and robust enough to bear children. Failing to appear vital and lively is a huge minus.

Fur is immensely important in dog world. Length and color doesn't matter but it should be dense, lush and shiny and obviously be free from dirt, odors and parasites. Beauty-conscious dogs with dark fur try to avoid having their coats bleached by the sun. Mange is greatly feared as it almost always comes with public shunning and loss of social status.

Dogs don't have much exposed skin but it too should appear healthy and smooth. Softer paw pads and glossy, neatly trimmed nails signify high standard of living.

In this particular time and place, slightly rounder and softer facial features are favored. Big, dark and round puppy eyes are seen as particularly beautiful. Symmetrical face markings are desirable, but some dogs become known for their unique and visually striking patches and spots. Vibrant and warm colors are generally more praiseworthy than more muted shades and fur dyeing isn't unheard of, but it takes a lot of time and effort to maintain and is too costly for most dogs. Tail standards vary between different types but carrying it high is usually seen as an attractive trait. Thickly furred and well groomed tails are well liked. Ear cropping and tail docking is a tradition comparable to body modding in some communities, although at this time most people that practice it are peasants and commoners.

Imagine Gray calling a 911 meeting right after he and Lyra kissed. And then when they all have assembled, he just blurts out something like "I like Lyra Kane and we just kissed"(full stop.) All hell breaks loose with the rest already planning how their (Gray and Lyra's) wedding's gonna be like, the name of their kids and ofc teasing lil Gray bear for finally getting a girl...

P.S- Should l make a fanfic on this?

we moved on from this too fast

“if readers take the time to leave comments on fics, then authors should at least take the time to reply.”

gently pats you on head. Babe. They already wrote the fic. For free. They gave you thousands of words to be judged and criticized. They don’t owe you anything on top of that.

Sorry to be 911 critical during a positivity event but it really is such a poor writing decision for Madney’s second baby, their first since they got married, to be an accident. They should have decided together that having a child was worth the risk instead of having fate decide for them. Maddie’s story has always been about her own agency and taking her own life back so the ability for her choose to have a second child would have been so much more powerful than the contrived drama of her coaxing Chimney into giving her permission to have it. It just feels like a major misstep out of line with where Maddie and Chimney should be at this point.
