So a while ago, a LONG time ago, I was listening to a podcast that hated on Peter David a lot and I, having only read his Babylon 5 books, was like “huh? Why?” Well I’m getting the Peter David Experience reading this dogshit Star Trek book and it’s WILD how much this book fucking hates women - ThreadSky

Remembering how London's younger ex-wife got treated in his B5 books I don't really want to know how much worse his Star Trek was.

Like Troy Denning in Forgotten Realms and Star Wars.

By itself, Mariel’s plot is actually an interesting story - but it’s part of a real fucking grim pattern of this guys work

And in reflection, the B5 books had some muted echoes of this, but this is unchained…unhinged

It’s no longer enough for Mackenzie Calhoun to be disintegrated, he needs to suffer more before oblivion

Mr. David I do not mean to badtalk you in your real bad medical situation... But why did you bring back "She-Mail" when you started writing She-Hulk? It was 2007 you should've known better-

????????? what...is this...do I want to know?

(also, I had a heart attack, lol, my first name is David)

Okay so the fan mail section of some She-Hulk runs is called "She-Mail", the first time this was used the writer made a little joke calling the title "a little androgynous". This is why I stopped reading the 90s She-Hulk stuff and also that it just wasn't funny.

The writer of that book is also responsible for about 90% of instances where a comic book hero shows interest/dates and underaged girl.

So yeah they 100% meant it to be a pun on she-male cause they were a bunch of yucksters and no one stopped their crime.

I read this as Peter Davidson and got really worried that one of the Doctors was going to turn out to be a giant asshole for a moment.
