Oh man if those fucking SKYDANCE scumbags end up owning our beloved Batman, Bugs Bunny and (*sob*) MAD Magazine I'm gonna make it my holy mission to violate and disrespect as many WB trademarks as possible until the day I die.

At a time when our industry is getting hacked to pieces, this is infuriating. Good on Kotaku for reporting this, and on Metacritic for removing that slop what it was caught. I don’t know what the answer is, but writers and consumers need to give a scarlet letter to every site that tries this crap.

All I have to say is fuck Jason Latour. We don't need more comics from that creep. We need the voices he harassed out of the industry to be welcomed back and we need to keep dude's like him from happening in the first place.
