>I female-identify, and I always have since I was very young. I am not transgendered; I’m not looking for gender reassignment. I clearly have more testosterone flowing through me than most men need, and you can tell just by looking at me. I’m comfortable with my maleness, but for whatever reason the way I’m wired, I have always female-identified.
> I tend to see – socially, I don’t tend to be myself in a male role. I don’t know any other way to put it. Now that being a separate issue, because that’s not an issue of writing, that is an issue of identity… And I think people, we identify however we identify. I’m a Caucasian American Jew. These are all things that make up who I am. That goes to the second half of the question, which is — I believe, for me, all writing comes from character. Character is made up of a variety of different things. One of those elements is gender. We live in a gendered society, and all you have to do is ask any woman here what her experience walking down a empty street at 3 in the morning is like, and then ask any guy. And you’re gonna get different responses. There’s a different implicit threat. That’s a societal problem.
>As a storyteller the goal is to entertain and tell a story, but I believe in art. And I believe that when you are creating stories you are an artist and there are responsibilities with that. And you can try to ignore them all you like, but the fact of the matter is if you are putting out work into the world, you are providing a view of the world. And offering an interpretation of the world no matter how fictitious it is. And for a work to not respect the diversity of the world is problematic. Because we live in a very diverse world. And therefore one of the writers jobs is to grants respect to those experiences. If you do not know something you should find out enough to write it.
Fake and gay, just like OP.

Its straight up not fake you fucking injun, if you copy the first paragraph and search it, its one of the first results, from his mouth, verbatim.
Fuck off.

fuck
>/co/ will now turn on Rucka
Thank fuck, I hate how people give him a pass because he writes the same boring action comic starring a woman that may as well be a dude bullshit over and over. It wouldn't be as annoying if people didn't praise it likes it's a unique way to write a female.

So he has a fetish for lesbians, and turn every character into a lesbian to self insert?

Every fucking time.
>abloo abloo bloo DC won't let muh favorite manchild gook draw the smut just the way he wants :(
>>84517907
He still didn't tell us what the fuck 'female identifying' means; I identify with Wonder Woman's warrior spirit because I box occasionally and entered the army, not because she's a woman.
His paragraph seems to imply he feels the same sense of fear that woman have, which is ridiculous because he's not one.
Also that last bit about about diversity is dependent on where you set your story.
This feels like a really cheap way to say >Look fellow women, I, a man, am non-threatening and an ally
>>84517907
I miss when I didn't know anything about the people who make the stuff I like.
>>84518007
>You look at “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” and it’s a rip-roaring yarn about fighting Nazis. Or, it’s two guys fighting for the soul
of one woman. And the wrong guy wins, in my opinion. Look at the first shot of “Raiders,” and the reveal of Indy. He’s in shadow. Belloq wears white. These [things] are significant, and they’re not there accidentally.
fucking killing it
>>84517907
Honestly, it sounds like old G Ruck should probably talk to a therapist about gender identity issues. Because that really sounds an awful lot like being transgender. Which is not to say that a man who has a great deal of empathy for women, or has female heroes they look up to, should be thought of as trans (those are admirable things), but when you say "I female identify", that's a pretty powerful statement of gender identity.
>>84517907
Welp, time to throw Rucka into the bin of blacklisted SJW writers. That DC continues to employ him is a bad sign for Rebirth.
>>84518125
Ditto. Ignorance is bliss.
I see why he and Cho went at it now.
>>84518146
>that's a pretty powerful statement of gender identity.
>not trans

>I have a lesbian fetish

>>84517907
i think this pretty much sums up the whole issue. people want a label for who they are, and they want it to be one that people already know as something else. gotta table the labels, guys. Mr. T said so
>>84518125
social media were a mistake

you will never be a little girl, deal with it, i did, shiiieet
>>84518125
Right? I've really come to just outright hate a lot of people I used to idolize. Bad feel, but you learn and grow from it.
So where does this put Rucka on the Sliding Scale of Comic Book Writer Weirdness?
I don't think he's as weird as Moore or Byrne, but I think he's weirder than Miller or Austen.
>>84517907
This is a load of shit. I can understand him complaining about Cho, pin up art and his single female lawyer storytelling don't really match up and he deserves to look out for what his name's gonna get printed on. This is just insulting, your just effeminate. You don't have a problem being male you identify as male.
>>84518226
>you will never be a little girl, deal with it
Fuck you, I've got 5 more years before I use my wizard powers to become a little girl and there's nothing you can do to stop me.
>>84517907
He wants to be a lesbian trap so bad. Just do it, Rucka.
>>84518336
>I can understand him complaining about Cho, pin up art and his single female lawyer storytelling don't really match up and he deserves to look out for what his name's gonna get printed on.
No you cant.
That was a fucking variant cover. Writers shouldnt have control over fucking variants, they're not standard covers. You have to go out of your way to buy them.
>>84518169
So apparently, Rucka had a problem with this...
>>84518442
...but did not have a problem with these?
>>84518459
Or these?
>>84518336
>pin up art
Cho's covers weren't anywhere near fucking pin ups.
>>84518459
Wow wtf, okay I'm now 100% behind Cho now, before I was more an 80, but that's just fucked.
Why is Rucka such a cunt? Oh wait...
>>84518442
Obviously it's because WW doesn't wear underwear.
>>84518125
Same. I just can't separate the writer (or artist) from their work.
>>84518328
>Rucka
>Moore
>Morrison
>Byrne
>Austen
>Miller
>Millar
>Ditko
Are there any noteworthy comic book writers who are actually normal?
"Rucka" is a very misleading name. For years I assumed he was Hispanic until this whole shitstorm with Cho happened.
Him being a fucking jew explains so much now.
>>84517907
>We live in a gendered society, and all you have to do is ask any woman here what her experience walking down a empty street at 3 in the morning is like, and then ask any guy. And you’re gonna get different responses. There’s a different implicit threat. That’s a societal problem.
So true. Men are far far more likely to be the victims of rape, murder, muggings by strangers at night. We should do something about this.
is this WHY Rucka was hired to write for Wonder Woman?
Because if it is, it's very unfortunate
>>84518613
>victims of rape
This too? Is this legit, because I know the other ones are but I've never heard this before.
Also the highest suicide rate.

>>>/pol/
fucking god damn shitlord
>>84518628
Check your timeline nerd. Or even the article. He had already done his actually really good run before this.
>>84518628
No, he's on it because he's a fan favorite WW writer and they thought he would undo the damage the finch's did
>>84518669
WHAT VEGETATIVE INJUSTICE
>>84518524
Slott?
>not including claremont on that list
>>84518115
Cool racism, bro.
>>84518634
No.
>>84518636
Nice shitpost, where are the actual /co/mblr fags though, they've been all over the Cho shit.
>>84518613
>walking down a empty street at 3 in the morning
why would any sane logical person would do that?
I can't hate Rucka. I, too, sometimes wish i was a cute girl and i love to play with make-up and female clothing, specially underwear. I've cross-dressed and behaved like a girl several times. It's just fun and very fulfilling.
But then again, i fantasize about being ravaged, used, abused and raped by dudes, so it might be a more sexual thing.
>>84518708
I don't think having constant manbaby meltdowns on twitter like Slott does qualifies as normal.
Far as I can tell, Brubaker and Soule seem pretty vanilla.
>>84518710
nigger
>>84518459
It was never about the art, it was about having a childish vendetta against Cho for being "anti-SJW" and "anti-censorship."
>>84518708
He stalks girls on twitter who criticize him. So no.
>>84518770
>>84518115
>>84517953
>>84517907
>>84518050
Now I know why Cho couldn't stand this weirdo.
