#Daredevil comics have been criticized as sexist for their tendency to mistreat Matt Murdock’s lovers. But in many stories from DD’s 58-year history, he’s an overtly romantic and sexually liberated character, partnering with strong women and indulging sensual pleasures. 1/14
In Silver & Bronze Age comics, romance is key to DD's story via his love for Karen Page, which he thinks his superheroism & blindness render impossible. Matt’s often presented as a tragic romance novel heroine, narratively & via fluid linework evoking melodramatic yearning. 2/14

Indigo mailed me a gift guide catalog, which is very exciting because I almost never go to stores anymore so... let's read it!
Lots of toy versions of cleaning supplies in this catalog which is a good idea, I guess? But did kids *really* pick the toy Dyson vacuum? Also, if it's fully functional, this is an excellent price for a Dyson vacuum and I should buy it for myself? This product mostly confuses me.
