Critical Hits & Misses #247

• Check out this video of Gal Gadot meeting a young, weeping Wonder Woman fan at SDCC. Anyone who says representation doesn't matter is a liar. 


• The Fifth Doctor Peter Davison got into a slugfest with the internet after he makes some comments at SDCC and on Twitter about the toxic response to the female Doctor Who, Jodie Whittaker. While Davison is pretty supportive of Whittaker's casting, he does make a few questionable comments about losing a role model for boys, so he kind of got hit from both sides of the furious debate.
