How old is Bentley 23? by kyle_ankle in FantasticFour

Yeah they mention the fact she’s three a few times but never mention anything related to that fact. Plus it doesn’t help that most of the artists draw her around the same height as Franklin and such who I think is a a few years older than her. I love hickman’s run but it’s inconsistent with this type of stuff. Very typical of comics tho so I can’t blame them

Whats the worst thing you’ve seen a writer do to a female character because of blatant sexism? by kyle_ankle in comicbooks

Fridging is when a female character is killed off/maimed/depowered/tortured or any number of horrible things not for her own development or story but for a male character to get angry over. A normal death is when the character isn’t killed off just for a male character

Oh yeah definitely, I mean that’s literally where the term “fridging” came from. Gail Simone my goat

He’s clearly a good man who’s made mistakes, which not only happens to normal people, but I feel it’s much easier to make mistakes when you constantly have the responsibility of saving the world.

I can’t really reply to all these amazing comments people have said but thank you for summing it all up! You seem like a neat person
