It is an acceptable risk that some people who don’t “deserve” it accidentally get help, if it means everyone who needs it is guaranteed to get help.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have made a HUGE breakthrough towards a UNIVERSAL antiviral. By targeting sugar molecules found on the surface of many viruses that SHARE structural similarities, they identified FOUR compounds that successfully BLOCKED infections from SEVEN different viruses.

...yeah. Okay. Enough.
This happens every year, it seems. The SFWA awards a writer the Grand Master Award, and if that writer is not a white male, a portion of the fanbase begins complaining vociferously about the award winner.
These "fans" are, of course, white men, 45+ years old.

I have just begun a new comic journey and I wish to opine about it, but what is social media if not to pop off with half formed opinions and random utterances of the day??
That is to simply say this.
Astro City is good, great even.
It also represents what I'd argue is something lost in comics.
