Huzzah!
A huge SG base is often a dealbreaker for me, to be honest. You don’t need a room for each SG member, you need teleporters and salvage racks and a crafting area. And you need it to be layed out in a fashion that makes SENSE, rather sticking on salvage rack in THIS room, another in THAT room and putting the crafting table on the other side of the frikkin base.
UGH, YES, THIS. I’ve blown through like 10 SGs just because they had horrible bases. Like, HOW HARD IS IT TO PUT THE CRAFTING TABLE IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE VAULT?
And of course if the base does make sense, the people who run it are douche bags.
I have yet to find an actually decent SG, I’m the pickiest motherfucker about this shit.
Aside from the SG I’m on on Liberty (of which I am the only member), I tend to go through supergroups at about the same rate, though of late I admit that I’ve mostly given up, especially since it’s so much easier to get around these days.

Faiza Hussein meets Steve Rogers:
Faiza: I want to call him “Cap.” What about “Captain”? Maybe too formal?
Dane: I call him “Steve.”
Faiza: And you… I shall call “plonker.”

Floaters are deposits of various size, shape, consistency, refractive index, and motility within the eye’s vitreous humour, which is normally transparent. At a young age the vitreous is perfectly transparent but, during life, imperfections gradually develop. The common type of floater, which is present in most people’s eyes, is due to degenerative changes of the vitreous humour. The perception of floaters is known as myodesopsia. Floaters are visible because of the shadows they cast on the retina or their refraction of the light that passes through them, and can appear alone or together with several others in one’s field of vision. They may appear as spots, threads, or fragments of cobwebs, which float slowly before the observer’s eyes. Since these objects exist within the eye itself, they are not optical illusions but are entoptic phenomena.
I’ve always wondered what this was called! I always see them and it bothers me haha. in fact i see a few right now.

I mean, imagine opening The Sun every day and finding page three adorned with a photo of a pouting specimen of masculinity clad only in his Y-fronts. Imagine naked men sprawling sensuously on the bonnets of new model cars at the motor show. Imagine having to listen to some sweaty and repugnant female version of Bernard Manning telling an endless string of Father-in-Law jokes. Sure, it’s funny once. Maybe it would be funny twice. But three times? Four times? Five thousand times? Can you imagine having to live with something as insulting as that every day of your life? No wonder so many feminists are cranky.
And comics are, in their way, every bit as guilty as other media in presenting a distorted vision of women to their readers. Maybe more guilty in some respects. After all, comics tend to be aimed predominantly at a young audience, an audience that may very well be going through an impressionable stage of their lives and desperately trying to make sense of the world in which they find themselves.

It’s pretty amazing how you could apply this just as readily to the comics industry of today as you could 30 years ago.
