::General rage noises:: This week, V and Emily discuss the trope-namer for "fridging," or the killing off of female characters purely to cause manpain and advance male characters' stories. It's rage-inducing. Plus, the Hawkeye Initiative brings attention to undue sexualization of female comics characters, and Dead Men Defrosting debunk the myth that male superheroes suffer as much as women do.
