I’m more interested in comic creators who make works that stand alone. I’m not buying them as a fashion accessory.
Is this writer trying to make the case that black people don’t like or read Spider-Man?
Is Orlando Jones (actor) tweeting about some new comic publisher who is a black man going to translate to SALES to each of those 100,000 followers?
Or is it going to get them to just recognize a character name that may LATER blip up on the radar as some new adapted movie franchise?
I agree - but a lot of the conventions have panels with collectors, appraisers, peripheral entertainers, etc as a way to try to create extra draw.
Just like they have the costume contests(definitely not my thing), etc .
