And I'm glad you found the article helpful. I think considering we only had about 1,200 words, it came out amazingly well. And I was super grateful for your help.<BR/><BR/>One minor correction: I don't work for Speakeasy.org. I do have an account with them. You could call me OtherMag.org's Charlie Anders. :)charlieandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03986038949027851708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-51557470409628460472007-06-27T15:51:00.000-04:002007-06-27T15:51:00.000-04:00Jonathan Tweet is a Role Playing Game designer, wh...Jonathan Tweet is a Role Playing Game designer, who worked on the newest version of D&D, in fact.<BR/><BR/>He had what I thought was an interesting post on the dilemma of misogyny in fantastic storytelling, where it seems like a "heads I win, tails you loose" kind of situation<BR/><BR/>http://www.jonathantweet.com/jotgamemisogyny.html<BR/><BR/>I'm wondering if you've read his thoughts already, and if you have any reflections.pdughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09832284495239324375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-76719895217730568362007-06-27T10:24:00.000-04:002007-06-27T10:24:00.000-04:00"Stephanie Brown died as Spoiler, not Robin, in an..."Stephanie Brown died as Spoiler, not Robin, in an identity wholly separate from Bat-family.

Any change to an established character or resolution to a controversial issue has to be decided by On Top -- lone editors don't have the authority to do these things. If a "Bat Book" editor just decided to have the memorial drawn in w/o Didio's approval, they would most likely be called to the carpet for it. So the ball is in his court.Vergehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10083468076834391732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-58818242679002961332007-06-26T23:48:00.000-04:002007-06-26T23:48:00.000-04:00I have posted and no doubt will post again this li...I have posted and no doubt will post again this line of reasoning re: Stephanie Brown, in the hopes that maybe some one will A) listen, B) respond to my arguments in a convincing manner so that I might be better informed. To wit:<BR/><BR/>Stephanie Brown died as Spoiler, not Robin, in an identity wholly separate from Bat-family. She was, and is, in Batman's eyes, a sympathetic outsider. Appreciated, but never completely trusted. Stephanie is no more likely to recieve a trophy memorial than Nightwing or Comm.
