Contrary To Internet Opinion: The Joy of Hate

We end the year with Damon Shaw, Mike Ortiz and Jason Thompson, stepping up and sharing their views that seem to run contrary to what they are seeing online. specifically the negativity aimed at DC Comics. Unlike the many blogs, websites and podcasts that have been critical of DC, We actually like what they are doing and support many of the choices they have made. We also think there are a lot of people who agree and want to give voice to the other side of the argument.
