For Batwoman, that might not be a dismissal, but a mission statement.
I find that varying degrees of interesting depending on which Batgirl you're thinking of.

I'm tempted to say "I've lost better friends than you" to a lote of people lately. I'm not sure what I ever want to say to the better friends that I've lost, though.

Bio
Twelve years ago, I said something on this website that continues to embarrassing me to this day. I was a stupid kid, like most, but I've never quite gotten the taste out of my mouth. Anyone who knew me at the time can tell you about it.
I love this website. I'm pretty sure my phylactery is stored wherever the webserver is and a significant chunk of me will just disappear when it ceases operation. Until then, it comforts me. I should go to the hardware store and paint my bedroom walls with the same soft, brownish grey that the background color has been for the last twelve years. Some of my friends can't wait for the site to go offline but I don't know of any other places that offer the same sense of community.
I'm an omni-gamer. I like board games, tabletop roleplaying games, admire tabletop war games, suck at riddles, and have an absurd library of video games. Survival horror is basically my favorite genre. Otherwise I'm a fan of esoteric, occult bullshit and punk rock. But disco's cool. Disco is what humanity sounds like when it chooses to be happy. Between you and I, I'd like to hope that the days of my life can sparkle like a disco ball, accreting like sparks from a grinder held up against the unwavering dark of deaths own shadow. Burn baby burn.
You and I, we're gonna die. We should be friends first, though. Write some checks we can't cash and make eachother smile. Make believe for a while.

What do you mean "you people"?!
Nah. It was totally racist, man.
I swear the two of you could not be any more polar opposite if you tried.
Yeah. We're cute, right?
But that's the thing. NR is actually trying to be this way.
Let's be honest, Thrade, I'm not the only one. It takes two to make a thing go right, and you've put as much into this relationship as I have.

The lack of symmetry there pains me. You have the images on the right just placed haphazardly.
Nah, man. It's symbolic.

COMING TO MARVEL COMICS IN 2019
No no nooooooooo. I don't want to join The Damned!
Also, Bravely Default 3 may be on the way!
Yay! I got mentioned!
The line isn't all that murky, really. You were born after the start of the modern internet age (1995). Your entire life has existed in the era of the modern internet. Those who fall into that category have gone their entire lives under the influence of the internet. Thus, they, and you, are generation z.
I didn't necessarily always have access to the internet though. I didn't personally have any machinery with internet access until I was twelve. I actually spent most of my pre-teenaged years reading books and playing offline games, watching DVDs and going to the library once a month for fun. I mean, sure, I'm slightly younger than most of the cutoff dates, but... eh, that's really all I got. As I see it, I'm kinda like Luke Skywalker: Last of the old/First of the new.
And thanks for the continued, meaningful conversation with that last response.
Did you want me to tell you I thought you were wrong? You had valid points. I obviously thought that these things could be worked around. I imagine he could literally draw stick figures until he acquired the attention of somebody who can draw forealz. Besides, making comics for money is a losing game for the most part. It looks like it would always be a passion project, even if you are "successful" (Kirkman, Vaughan, Lemire, etc.).
In other news, I have a migraine and will be going to bed shortly. Tomorrow you can expect the post to be finished sometime prior to my D&D session.
In spite of the obvious sarcasm, me and my chaos magic wish you a recovery.
Does anybody 'round these parts use Skype anymore?

You aren't a millennial. Also no. Because you're a teenager.
The line there is so murky.
Well, there's also the issue of time. I've got a full-time job, a circle of friends whom I try to make time for, a side career (well, at this point just a hobby) as a semi-professional actor, and about a dozen other interests and hobbies vying for my attention. If I'm going to start carving chunks of my days out for a dedicated project, it either needs to be something I know will be profitable or enough of a passion-project that I don't care if it bombs. And as much as I love reading comics and writing fanfiction, I really don't have a whole lot of inclination to sink that much time and effort into a medium whose audience has already shriveled to a fraction of what it used to be.
Cool stuff, anyhow. If I weren't tired I'd respond more. Probably will, elsewhen.

While I understand where you're coming from, you still are dramatically underestimating the expenses required for even amateur webcomics. Ignoring time invested, without artistic talents of his own or someone willing to work for free while still being 100% reliable, Andy would need to hire someone to do the art. Which is a serious investment without a guarantee of return. And that's just the most superficial, basic obstacle. While venturing forward on your own and flipping the bird at conventional, mainstream publishing is all well and good - a path I fully support - it is not even close to being a financially secure decision.
Sure.

You have money?
Why wouldn't I have money? Because I'm a millennial?
