Here’s the tweet in question. Good luck finding all those Liefeld fans in the replies.

Liefeld has been publicly shitting on the current X-creators for some time now, and retweeting people who are offended that some character named Shatterstar or something has come out as gay.

So you can add homophobia to Liefeld’s many charms.

I’m not talking about the level of gore – both of those things are shock/gross-out moments. In Sweet Tooth there’s no gore – they’re terrible things done by ordinary people to ordinary people, not by or to cartoonish villains.

I couldn’t really figure out who it was aimed at; it seems like a kid’s show (were we really supposed to take that weird animatronic/CG chipmunk thing seriously?) but then there are people being burned alive in their homes and hybrid kids being dissected, so :unsure:

So yeah… called it!

Three reasons she might be:

The spell she uses to control people is “enchantment.”

She has blonde hair – not a typical Loki trait.

She tells Loki she hates that name, and he should call her Randy (the name of the guy she’s enchanted.) Enchantress’ real name is Amora……Read more
