And That They’ve Been Written In So Many Different Ways - Blog Posts

1 year ago

Does it ever frustrate you when people argue about the moral implications of characters in serialized media (like comics and tv shows) when you yourself know that the reason characters will do things incredibly differently and make some completely out of character choices depending one what the writer wants to write.

Or not even moral implications, literally just any action or characterization.

And also those writer change so frequently that often the character will do something with one writer and then not do it with another writer.

Also these things have been existing so long that (especially with comics, like nearly a century) that times have changed and writing has also changed.

Just remember that these are characters that have been around for years and have been passed around by writers since their conception.

There is no hard canon with these things.

(Also a better argument would be about the industry issues and why the writers wrote what they did rather than arguing about fictional characters. Because a lot of this stuff is mostly industry issues that should be addressed because these are real people making these writing decisions and editorial changes.)
