1. How is threatening to stop reading QC the same as dictating how Jeph must write his comic?
2. Why is everone so in favor of changing art retroactively?

Never forget!

As I understand it, no one is in favor of changing art retroactively just for the fuck of it, but they are in favor of acknowledging that other people can be obnoxious, demanding assholes, and that Jeph may very understandably not want to deal with that shit right now. If someone wants to stop reading QC, then they should stop reading QC. No nasty emails required! It's quite simple, really.

Are you saying you think Jeph changed the strip because he didn't want to deal with people being obnoxious, demanding assholes about the original content?
Because that's not what happened at all. Go back and read Jeph's tumblr post.

My opinion from the previous visit - including the moment when Marten finally got fed up with it, managed to find something resembling a spine, and was promptly smacked down in front of all his friends - stands. Veronica, whether it was entirely conscious or not, has done an excellent job of breaking Marten's spirit and ensuring that he will remain her obedient, pliable little boy forever. Someone who will drift through life with no real goals or agency of his own, waiting for someone to tell him what to do.

And there is the reason why marten is so passive.

No, I read the tumblr, and that's not what I meant at all (though rereading I know I wasn't entirely clear). The 'obnoxious demanding assholes' bit was really more about the person who emailed him about refusing to read any more if Marten and Claire got together, and how even after revising the comic for the reasons he stated, he still gets shit for it.
