Happy to have a new long-form essay on the politics of adaptation in the Amazon Prime version of The Boys, focusing on the show's version of Stormfront and the increasing specificity of its critique of the Trump era, over at @vaultofculture.bsky.social! www.vaultofculture.com/vault/featur...

Just finished a long-form essay on the role that Stormfront plays in The Boys, particularly how her character solidifies the shows political critique. This thing has been through multiple lives and iterations, but will be up at @vaultofculture.bsky.social on Wednesday!

I do this sometimes with my friends at @comicsxf.com, and have tremendous respect for @solrad.bsky.social @vaultofculture.bsky.social @shelfdust.bsky.social @sktchd.bsky.social + ventures of @explodingarrow.bsky.social. But there's always room for more smart writing about comics!
