Bitch Planet #4 by Kelly Sue DeConnick, Valentine De Landro

4.0

Not too long ago, another avid Bitch Planet reader sent me a tweet from Kelly Sue. It was Kelly apologizing, saying that Bitch Planet issue number four would reach our hands at a later date. Like many readers I was totally bummed out and stayed optimistic by rereading the first three issues and then even reintroduced a friend to the world of comics by way of a care package of comics which included a copy of issue one. (I racked up some serious awesome friends points and Karma there!

Going in, I couldn’t help but notice the two men who act as surveillance techs of sorts, the first two men we see in the prison colony observing and taking notes on the inmates. One questions the other with the fate of the inmates, beginning to ask if things had been different before his coworker stops him–perhaps what? That these women could be spared suffering? Humilation? Abuse? It’s just that tone of the man on the right that I hear too often nearly everyday, whether it be the comments, (ugh the comments) on video with or about Anita Sarkeesian or more recently one of my parents telling me that there is a right way and a WRONG way to protest regarding the uprising that’s happening in Baltimore (that’s #BaltimoreUprising, yall)
