[i]Oh boy, here we go...[/i] Here are my thoughts on the matter, and I will say it in [b]short[/b] sentences to make what I’m saying as easy to comprehend as possible to avoid confusion. Ana being gay is [b]not[/b] the problem, the comic’s mediocre writing is. Showing this side of her is [b]fine[/b], but spending the majority of the comic’s [u]plot[/u] on this one subject was foolish. The idea behind the story was interesting, but much like the Osiris comic, the execution of the idea was terribly flawed. The comics should have started with her “death” at the Battle of the Gap. Then it should have shown her self doubt and conflict due to the fact that she is a [i]Bray[/i], the last known living member of a family thats legacy (and crimes) were so great it survived the collapse. She comes to the conclusion that Rasputin, the only other Bray “member” that still lives can help her. Along this path she meets Camrin, and as time passes they fall in love. Camrin shows Ana how being a Bray gives her a purpose that no other guardian has, and how it gives her the ability to perhaps change the world for the better. They find the location of Rasputin’s core, but Camrin dies in the process. Ana feels grief from this tragedy, but decides to carry on in her memory. She travels the wastes of mars, and the events of the first comic play out. When she sees Rasputin’s core, she finds new determination and hope. She will press on no matter what happens and despite her losses, because she is a [b]Bray[/b], and the last chance that their legacy, and hers, can be made new again. The point on this example is that the story could have been good, but the time management was a mess and was all set up for the [i]shocktwistTM[/i] that Camrin was dead the whole time (and then not?). The pieces, including her relationship, [i]where there[/i], but the picture was unfinished. [b]Tl:Dr[/b] Ana being gay is not the problem, the poor writing and pacing of the comic was its greatest downfall. Because her being gay was made such a huge focus, it may have been why the point of the story was lead astray. Keep in mind that this is because of the [b]writer[/b] and [b]not[/b] Ana’s sexuality. Swap Camrin’s gender and all the issues and problems with the comic still remain. The vocal point and focus was misplaced, and the story as a whole paid the price. Thank you for your time.
