The first is from the latest New Avengers, regarding the treatment of a certain character at the hands of the Hood, Bendis' new Kingpin of Supervillains. It's a long story to explain, and I'm not even pissed from the sexist standpoint (that said, I wouldn't be surprised if we see an uproar akin to the MJ statue, but we'll see), as much as it just struck me as needlessly cruel and pointless. Basically, it's Tigra getting brutalized and degraded, and it's downright ugly, and not in a way that seems artistically redeeming.
The other is the trade paperback of Garth Ennis' CHRONICLES OF WORMWOOD, which is the most explicit chapter yet in Ennis' I-hate-God-and-religion-rargh series. I'll explain later.
