Another Thing About Kyrax2

…while I am at it.

There are people who try to paint her as this angry, strident, shrill, discontented female, and let me just say for the record, that is sheer, unadulterated horseshit.

Kyrax2 is what a lot of people have been at different times, someone who loves comics who was concerned about the direction she believed they were going in. That’s it.

When you meet her, she’s this lovely, incredibly sweet and kind young woman, who adores comics and adores her family. She’s friends with everyone, no one who actually knows her has an unkind word to say about her.

And SHE, more tellingly, doesn’t have an unkind word to say about anyone, either, including people who could have listened better when she asked her questions the first time.

She went way, way out of her way to let people know that a lot of pros had reached out to her, and been very kind, even when they disagreed. She made a point to say that DC had treated her extremely well this past SDCC. I don’t bring this up to excuse what I think was a poor response the first time (which it was), but to again say, Kyrax2 is incredibly gracious and fair.

All she did was what we all hope we will do when we see something we think is important—she stood up and expressed that she thought it was wrong, and asked for change. She was polite, but direct.

I admire her tremendously…she certainly could have been a lot angrier, instead, she went out of her way to be fair, and to acknowledge improvement, while still pointing out things that need fixing.

I saw a lot of people misrepresent how she behaved considerably after her first appearances at SDCC. They did Kyrax2 and the discussion a disservice.

Sorry, felt I had to get that out.

(I should also add that being an angry loud female is not always such a bad thing…;) )
