Former Marvel editor Antos, now employed by Valiant, let know what she thinks of capitalism while ranting about problems with plane flight booking:
Fuck capitalism. Fuck these companies. Even if I could afford to travel again after this, I wouldn’t use them.— Heather Antos (@HeatherAntos) March 18, 2020
So because they can’t service her at a time when Coronavirus is posing a serious problem going forward, she has to drag capitalism into all this? It doesn’t make any sense. If socialism were the norm, would she have a different response?
She even wrote:
No one pursues comics for some big paycheck.— Heather Antos (@HeatherAntos) March 18, 2020
Isn’t that kind of like confirming it’s a lousy paying business, not unlike animation? In any case, what she says is anything but true, even if the big bucks aren’t to be found in comicdom. Of course, based on her past track record at Marvel, she certainly doesn’t seem to have gotten into the business for entertainment purposes so much as she did for the sake of imposing her social justice beliefs onto the products at hand.
Capitalism enables and enforces corporate greed. Corporate greed is why these companies are “unable” to refund their customers for services never rendered.
It’s not bad customer service if there is no customer service. It’s just a plain scam at that point. https://t.co/hvIMiHze1S

If she looked under a microscope, she’d notice most corporations are run by vehement leftists like herself, who are anything but capitalists, though they sure love exploiting the concept for foisting products like what she oversaw at Marvel onto unwitting consumers.
The only thing “entitled” are the fans who treat the people who put their hearts and souls into their work like they “owe” them.— Heather Antos (@HeatherAntos) March 19, 2020
Translation: she doesn’t want any customers to buy what she’s working on now at Valiant. I guess she just took the job for…the paycheck. Artistic merit must not be relevant here.
One more thing she posted:
“Thank god dogs can’t contract COVID-19.”

According to the American Kennel Club, at least 2 did in China, and though there don’t seem to be any further reports of the same so far, there are still some forms of chemicals stemming from Corona that can infect them. The CDC also advises caution when dealing with pets at a time like this, so it’s awfully naive to assume pets like dogs and cats are totally immune to these diseases.
People like Antos are just why comicdom is collapsing.
