@neozurg: I highly disagree with this tweet. When there is dramatic change to a comic character there are tons of outrage and leaps of logic EVERYWHERE. It is only when it has to do with a change in race or gender does the need to focus on this outrage occurs. I would think someone in the comics industry would know this better than a typical reporter looking for a story.
Damien as Robin = outrage, Dick Grayson no longer Nightwing = outrage, Superior Spiderman = more outrage then any of these other ones combined. These decisions always spark outrage because fans to not like change for the most part. That doesn't mean that the people that are outraged should be outraged but it also doesn't mean that their outrage stems from the fact of a gender or race change.
