pietro maximoff – Those Celestial Bodies

freakingquicksilver:

Sooo…which do you prefer???

While I can appreciate when comics address stuff that happened in the past, this post shows the good and bad side. When you tear one character down to bring another up, it’s insulting to both characters. Not least because it demonstrates that the writer doesn’t have enough faith in the characters to let them stand up on their own merits.

It’s like when you meet someone that’s constantly critical of everyone else; the problem is usually their own insecurity, and by tearing others down, they might seem better themselves.
