QuoteFans to Protest DC Relaunch at SDCCOriginally reported by ComicBook.com from a Facebook post organizing the event, a group of fans are planning to protest DC's upcoming September relaunch by... walking. I'm fairly certain they'd be walking a lot anyway, seeing as it's a sizable convention, but it's different because they'll be walking in protest.The Facebook post reads, "Are you utterly baffled, disappointed and just ANGRY to see how DC ruins your favorite character's design and wipes decades of comic history out of the mainstream universe? Well, you're not alone! And why not make some noise at the biggest pop-culture event this year, where creators, artists and writers appear in person - show them how fans - the fans of the classic characters, the (nevertheless slightly changing) designs, the character's history and personality - really feel about it!"If you are planning on joining this farce, I've got a tip for you. These wheels are in motion. Walking across the convention center on one of the busiest days of the show won't do much for you. The only way to show DC that you're not fans of what they're doing is to not buy the books.While I think fans have every right to voice their opinions on the matter, do you really want to waste your time (not to mention money) fruitlessly marching around for an hour? I didn't think so. Vote with your money, not protest walks. And besides, if you're just trying to scratch that protest itch, I'm sure there's something more worthwhile to rally against.So if you're attending the convention and are at a loss for something to do on Saturday from 2-3 PM, ask me. Because anything is better than this.
