"We sell overly sexualised covers for our female heroes because it's what people want to buy." Really? That's your conceit? Because that's the same thing drug dealers and gun stores use. "People want to buy it, let's sell it." Sometimes, Tom, you have to sit and think about what you're releasing. Decency over money? That too difficult for you?

I think that there’s a world of difference between producing art and selling drugs or guns.
And you don’t have to like all art. That’s kinda the buy-in. But that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t have validity or shouldn’t be made.
I think anybody who doesn’t like that particular cover is completely entitled to their opinion. And they’re under no obligation to purchase or support it.
Everything else, though, starts to sound like a slippery slope of censorship to me, and so I recoil from it on principle.
