Not awful, just bad.

Just a big pile of meh. Personally I think Leth would be more comfortable writing for Archie.

It's really not as bad as people make it out to be.

It is by no means good, but it has more merit than a lot of other titles Marvel puts out.
I was genuinely impressed that Leth brought back Patsy's friendship with Valkyrie.

honestly even if it isn't your taste, there's still some degree that you can objectively criticize something.

Hellcat's regular art is pretty cute despite the sameface, but Leth's writing is just so bad. She's pretty much a fanfic tier writer who only got lucky thanks to having a lot of connections in high places. It's no surprise Hellcat's numbers are tanking like crazy despite Marvel's best attempts to pimp it out when it first released. If the trades don't sell similar numbers to Squirrel Girl, it will likely be canned by issue 12.

This is the most likely answer, but notice the way the different terms are positioned in-panel, she puts opposite groups next to each other to emphasize the wide variety of people she's attracted to.

No, that's Lena Dunham.

The answer is a shit ton of nepotism and the current reigning feminist narrative. Dunham is "important" and "strong" and "so brave" for admitting to molesting her sister, and anyone who points out she admitted to molesting her sister is a bigoted male trying to bring her down.

I think some of the crimes women committed were things like killing their husband who verbally abused them and other shit. Every woman in the prison was a feminist hero of some sort for standing up to the patriarchy and getting herself arrested. It was never their fault.

I really really like one of the concepts, her business of finding work for superpowered individuals who don't want revenge or world domination or heroism, but to just live life and find work. It explores superpowers in a way that is completely new, at least to me.

If only that was ever relevant besides reason to bring up "message boards" so we all know that the writer is current.

The art style isn't good but you probably already knew that because /co/ won't fucking shut up about it. Most of the pics posted as proof of the terrible art style are cherrypicked to show the worst of the worst.

Not defending the art, it isn't good, but it's not as bad as /co/ makes it out to be, not consistently. Except for the most recent issue, holy shit what even happened there? Did they get a new artist? Did they pay their artist less?

There's a lot I could say about the writing, but nothing that hasn't already been said on this board or even in this very thread multiple times already.

Every issue up to then had less-than-good art, but out of those were some select panels that were especially bad. Those especially bad panels were the panels often posted again and again as evidence that the art was consistently that bad.

That particular issue if a different matter altogether. Cherrypicking is not required or even possible, it is consistently bad throughout the issue.

Well, bad for a comic, I suppose. It would be acceptable or even appropriately "quirky" in some webcomic, which is honestly what I thought it was when the first pics of it were posted here. Is that what Bee & Puppycat is?

People keep shitting on the artwork but I find it rather cute.

Now that the sole good part of it has been put forward the writing is just utter shit. Like goddamn.

I'm not going to say I'm the biggest fan of Patsy Walker or some bullshit but she and pretty much every single other adult figure in this comic book acts like a sheltered idiot teenager which in some cases, like Patsy make about about as much sense as shooting yourself in the crotch does.

So let get this straight.

1. Shes confused about her sexual preference.
2. Was attracted to lolitas
3. Goes to therapy.

And they let her be in charge of a comic book?
>>
>>83366207
My main problem is she just threw away the history of the character. Patsy Walker has been around forever, and they erased her and made her a new young 20-something character for some reason.

It reminds me of like if someone put a gun to my head and made me write a comedy book in one day. I am not funny at all and as much as I like humor, I know I'm not the right person to write a light-hearted comedy. It feels like Leth either (a) has no awareness that she is not funny or (b) knows she isn't funny and is merely aping other comedic styles and deciding that a hollow echo of actual humor is good enough.
>>
>>83363949
You know, as much shit as he got for it, I think Simon Pegg was right when he commented about the infantilization of modern culture.
>>
>>83366597
She got the opportunity because Marvel is desperate for female writers and wanted to launch some books that would appeal to a female audience. Leth had gotten a lot of praise for her webcomics (ugh) and I think had done some other comics before (Boom?).

So it turns out she can't write Marvel comics. Hopefully her tenure ends with Hellcat and she can shuffle back into obscurity.
>>
>>83366257
comics aren't rocket science anon.
>>
>>83365761
She's always been like this outside of the 90's mini. She's also not from Hell, she just married the Son of Satan. She's like this because she was Marvel's answer to Betty and Veronica in the golden age and they decided to toss her into their super hero universe later and had her keep the peppy attitude. Though she is acting a little young here.

She moved her Kate or Die! comics exclusive to Patreon. You have to pay $1 (or more) per month to access them. She's getting $1,292 per month currently.

I guess that's one way to avoid negative comments and criticism. Make everyone pay, and only people who like what she puts out will do that. So she'll get nothing but positive feedback.

I don't mind trigger or content warnings, but what fucking use is it to just write TRIGGER WARNING at the very beginning of your comic without giving a vague descriptor of the "triggering" content? Don't people get triggered by different things?

The problem is she can't write. Cute is the only thing she knows that isn't SJW soapboxing, relationship woes, or suicidal depression. Leth basically retreats from her problems aside from when her depression reaches a tipping point.

I had a friend who was tumblr incarnate.
One time her house caught fire and she super milked her 'PTSD'. It had been months later and I was talking to another friend and I believe I mentioned someone being 'fired' or something similarly innocent and she got upset with me.
She almost got into a fight with me because I told her Green Day sucks.
One time we were driving around, and she just randomly shouted "SMASH THE PATRIARCHY" and sat back down.
She would regularly refuse to talk to friends of hers (myself included) for months at a time simply because she disagreed with something they said.
She took my fucking guitar.
