Limbaugh Claims Dark Knight Movie Villain Bane Is A Secret Jab At Mitt Romney

Another laughable conspiracy theory from Rush Limbaugh. Rush Limbaugh has come under the impression that the villainous Bane, played by Tom Hardy in “The Dark Knight Rises” and Batman’s most destructive nemesis yet, is a dig at Bain Capital, the financial services company once headed by Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney that’s featuring prominently in President Barack Obama’s campaign ads. …

Brian Brownshirt: Pissed At Comic Books

“Something is wrong when huge companies push gay marriage into children’s literature in order to make money. Something is wrong when a comic book store decides to host a wedding, again for commercial purposes. And something is really wrong when a man proposes because, well, somebody else is going to help pay for the wedding and it might mean a …

One Million Shrews Against Homo Comics

Well, at least they’re timely. Children desire to be just like superheroes. Children mimic superhero actions and even dress up in costumes to resemble these characters as much as possible. Can you imagine little boys saying, “I want a boyfriend or husband like X-Men?” This is ridiculous! Why do adult gay men need comic superheroes as role models? They don’t …

Batman Is Gay

“Gayness is built into Batman. I’m not using gay in the pejorative sense, but Batman is very, very gay. There’s just no denying it. Obviously as a fictional character he’s intended to be heterosexual, but the basis of the whole concept is utterly gay. All these women fancy him and they all wear fetish clothes and jump around rooftops to …

Chuck Colson: The Comic Book

JMG reader Sean found the above in a $1 budget bin at his local comic book store. Gamma Cloud has the history behind a comic book about the Watergate felon turned anti-gay activist: The fact of the matter is that Chuck Colson – Born Again is nothing short of a grand and glorious collection of obfuscation and half-truths.

Cracked Vs The AFA

An excerpt: The American Family Association aren’t just a recognized hate group, they’re cartoon villains that escaped into the real world. They’re driven by hate, choose actual comics characters as their enemies and still fail humiliatingly and publicly. They think of themselves as righteous crusaders, because they’re exactly the sort of assholes who still use the word “crusade,” but they’re …

Archie Comics Responds To AFA

“We stand by Life with Archie #16. As I’ve said before, Riverdale is a safe, welcoming place that does not judge anyone. It’s an idealized version of America that will hopefully become reality someday. We’re sorry the American Family Association/One Million Moms feels so negatively about our product, but they have every right to their opinion, just like we have …
