Keeping things the way they are because that’s just how you’re familiar with them is problematic, due to most everyone in comic fiction being a white, cis-gendered guy. It’s not an overtly racist distinction you’re making, which is why you seem to feel you’ve come to it without prejudicial racial bias (“similar conclusions can be reached by different arguments”), but it actually IS racist by way of exclusion. “Don’t do something directly racist, but also just keep things how they’ve always been” is racist [and heteronormative, and sexist, and cis-sexist, and so on] because “how things have always been” are white, cis-gendered, and male. Therefore, you prefer things to stay white, cis-gendered, and male. The world has changed, but you want these characters to persist as vestiges of an outdated, slanted view of society.

— Joe Quionnes, after Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec
I am not a user of a compound, so I usually keep quiet about Hawkeye’s form (except that one time with his forearm, because dude seriously, keep it together). However one thing I AM is a recurve archer, and I want you (yes all of you) to take a really serious look at his right hand there. That thing he’s doing, with his fingers. If he hits a target with form like that, I will eat my finger tab. And I do not want to eat my finger tab.
Speaking of, where the fuck is his finger tab? Maybe he has special awesome things on his fingers.
ETA WAIT HE ALWAYS USES A RECURVE I TAKE IT BACK I’M GONNA CRITICISE HIM ALL THE TIME. Seriously dude, I love my recurve, but maybe a compound would be more useful to you in this situation? And given your poor form?

Rumor: IDW Doctor Who/Star Trek: The Next Generation crossover
kanenwriter:
[IT IS RUMORED THAT] in May, IDW are to publish a Doctor Who/Star Trek: The Next Generation crossover series. Featuring The Doctor, Rory, Amy, Captain Picard, Worf, Data, Geordie LaForge, Deanna Troy, Will Riker and the rest. And that this art, featuring the Doctor, Rory and Amy on the bridge of the Enterprise is a cover that will be used in the series.
The fact that this would be specifically the 11th Doctor meeting specifically the TNG cast has me very interested.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz6ysobByE1r4wbsno1_500.jpg)
