Back on our regular schedule, and this time we're discussing a topic that probably should come with a warning label.
The comic book industry, and by extension the comics community at large, has been abuzz with discussion about the termination of employment for Shelly Bond at Vertigo Comics, which somehow led to an even bigger discussion about the allegations of sexual harassment by a senior editor -- named by many to be Superman group editor Eddie Berganza.
Now, we're not going to get into the veracity of the allegations themselves, mainly because we don't have the facts of any of the cases (reported or not). Instead, we take a look at the discussion itself, the online back and forth that looks at the situation and -- like the Internet does -- forms an opinion no matter how informed (or not) it may be.
This is not a defense of Berganza or anyone else who's been accused of this kind of thing. This is a surface examination of the conversation being had about it.
