Marvel keeps this up we'll have characters smoke again and MJ and Peter will confront Mephisto for their marriage back.

The opposite. He's not a foaming-at-the-mouth liberal, but he'd state his stance and tell attackers to frick off.

Disney and Lucasfilm don't want their creators getting publicly political and telling their opposition to suck it.

and why would they? The urge to shitpost on Twitter is the one thing I can't understand about otherwise technologically savy individuals in positions of notoriety.

A good friend of mine is a good friend of his... its the internet folks, you go by Kevin Bacon degrees here.

While I have never been a huge fan of his writing, from what I understand he is a really nice guy... who has a tendency to completely lose his shite when criticized.

So he's talented, but has a wee bit of a temper. He sounds like quite a few posters, myself included, on here.

A Star Wars writer was fired by Marvel? Shouldn't that be two separate divisions? Considering all the toxic filth that comes from some of the Star Wars people I'm not surprised they wouldn't fire him. Good for Marvel though.

From article:
quote:

Wendig has been outspoken about his liberal political views on Twitter. On Oct. 7, he drew the attention of well-known conservative personalities such as Ben Shapiro and filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza with a series of tweets surrounding the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who had been accused of sexual assault. In one tweet, which he later deleted because he said it had become a "funnel for harassment," he wrote, "Winter is coming, you callous fricknecks, you prolapsed assholes, you grotesque monsters, you racists and rapists and wretched abusers, you vengeful petty horrors."


What a Moron!!!

I would imagine all of the comics are published under the Marvel umbrella.

I actually unfollowed him just the other day because he just talked about politics too much for me (and in a non interesting style too, just ranting).

He obviously went a little off the deep end, anyone could be fired from their employer if they posted some of the stuff he wrote.
