Bleeding Cool haspointed outhow the vast majority of comic book creators who evince any form of political fealty in late months were pro - Hillary Clintonor at least anti - Donald Trump . Even the anti - Clinton people did not show many pro - Trump view . And those that did stay fresh them quiet , in private Friend groups on Facebook , on Slacks , on instant messenger . And some decided that expressing any political opinion at all was a bad thing , no matter what it was .
But after the election of Donald Trump , the telephone dial has been turned up to 11 . Mexican artistHumberto RamosandGeorge Perez , the child of two Puerto Rican immigrants to the USA have bothsworn off attending comic shows held in statesthat voted for Donald Trump , though Perez has intrust to fulfilling his agreed to commitments first , through 2017 .

Dirk Wood , VP of IDW Entertainment was very expressive ,
ButDennis Barger , retailer of Quickstop and Wonderworld in Michigan where Trump get 0.3 % more of the vote than Clinton , is concern however about what all this means for comical books- and his sales . He tells Bleeding Cool ,
We all need to calm down and get back to employment . The comic community has and always be INCLUSIVE . Some of the early devotee of comics were pariah , misfits , " addict and geeks " – cartoon strip , mirthful shop and comic and sci fi conventions were the only topographic point for espousal . Creator wishing to take out lines against " ruddy country " , sprain their backrest on promote their work in " cherry-red states " is non - inclusive , isolationist , some might even say xenophobic . As a retailer it will bruise sale . Customers holding their political ideology close to the vest get awkward when the Creator of their favorite books call them racists . They get tempestuous at those creators and that hurts us all . We are comics , we are inclusionary , we change minds with the tycoon of comics , if creators are " offended " by " red states " I retrieve they ’d be better serving the common finish by going to those commonwealth and changing brain one lover at a time , inspiring them through the work and in person . This industry made social change through , They punched Hitler , They showed green lantern he was n’t doing enough for the down trodden , they made green lantern black , they made Spider - Man black , they had homosexual weddings , they made Thor a char . I almost dare them to make cherry DoS blue , but they should n’t discriminate against showman and fans in red-faced states because of their fears or hate .
Talking to funny book retailers , I am aware of a number of reader who have told stores to omit comics write by citizenry speaking out so . This is not a lowly phone number , on some books that ’s 25 % of readers or more . Lines are being draw , hoi polloi are choosing sides and finding citizenry to friend with .
