You can't just trample on people's rights because you disagree with them. Nor say "it's OK that it exists, it just can't be popular."

  How is that trampling on anyones rights? Nobody has the right to be popular...

    Yes, yes, they do. Otherwise, I'd like to have Justin Beiber locked up in jail tomorrow. along with every other insipid pop artist and creators of other things I don't like. It's okay not to like things, its not okay to force people to stop doing things you don't like or keep those things from being popular because you have value differences. You're effectively using the same argument of people against same sex marriage. "This thing offends me and hurts my feelings/values, so others should be stopped from doing it." I like how the attempt at being progressive has come full circle to one of intolerance.

    What? It's not the right to be popular. It's the right to artistic freedom, including sexualized comic books, regardless of whether or not you're popular.

      And if you read the next comment up in the thread I wrote that I would never advocate against artistic freedom. I'm saying the major companies should look at the situation, realise it's not right and stop publishing highly sexualised comics. That doesn't mean the people that really want to draw those can't. They can continued find another publisher, or self publish.
