They also took Falcon's established character (Falcon is the new Cap), and made him a SJW. Even defending illegals coming across the border from evil border patrol agents.

And it wasn't enough to just replace Steve Rogers, they had to destroy his character. Steve has always been the most pro-American, traditional values dude in the MU. So, to show how all of those values are just a sham, they said he is now and always has been a Hydra agent.

It's mind-boggling that they would green light this project after a year of backlash to Ghostbusters. They're pushing the Narrative in spite of losing millions, and no one's buying into their PC agenda anymore.

The best stories often come up because people don't feel obliged to follow (or are not familiar with) conventions.

This poison is everywhere in comics. You have to dig through alot of this toxic waste to find anything decent.

Amazing Spiderman #1 last year had a gay wedding for no other reason than to have one.

Howard the Duck had too much SJW and anti-Trump comments as did Spider-Man 2099.

It's incredibly lazy.

A far more interesting way to make a "black girl Iron Man" would be for this freak genius to build her own suit in her dorm, emulating her hero Tony Stark, with the usual naive intent to 'use her gift to fight crime'. Given her apparent background, that would be hood crime a la Chicago rather than interdimensional alien orcs riding flying metal robo-cod.

As a Chicagoan, I can't agree with you more. It's Murder Central every weekend here, and a holiday weekend? Forget about it.

So grotesque that you're just left speechless.

It's not just "rebooting" the character. It's abolishing the old character and creating a new one.

I think it shows the total contempt that the elites have for their audience and for the male gender in general. I mean, why couldn't they call the new character "Cousin of Iron Man" or "Daughter of Iron Man." That at least might be understandable. No. They put it out like, "This is the new Iron Man. And it's not even a man. Man = whoever we say is a 'man.' Get with the program or else."

They're alienating men from this society in droves.

Turn your back on all this trash. Embrace the classics, and bask in an era where none of this pernicious shit existed. It's truly exhilarating.

Exactly. I'm alienated and have been so for a while. And it's not a bad thing. I'm not being forced to watch or pay attention to this shit, and so I don't. In fact if it wasn't for this thread I would never even know about it.

This kind of crap doesn't phase me anymore. Trannies, homos, feminism, I don't spend any time thinking about it. There is a handful of important facets to life that I pay attention to and get frustrated when TPTB mess with them, and they are as follows:

My constitutional rights
The economy, ie my ability to make money
Taxes
Physical safety
Immigration, because it affects all the above.

Aside from that? Society can go fuck itself. There is an odd movie or TV show here or there that I will partake of if I so choose, and the rest I ignore. I'm no longer concerned about society being turned into a cesspit: now my energy is devoted entirely to making sure I don't get pulled into said cesspit.

The question is, where is the money coming from?

SJWs interning and working at McDonalds are not going to be bankrolling this perpetual brown/estrogen washing of every franchise in the world. This has to be bleeding them a lot of money.

So who's ponied up the cash to sweeten the transition?

Indeed. The classics of the golden and silver age of comic books.

It's still not enough. From the WaPo, so not giving them another click:

The announcement hasn’t been met with 100 percent good vibes, that’s for sure.

That’s because as Marvel’s comic-book pages start splashing more color on the skin of their heroes, the creative minds behind the process continue to be not as diverse.

Bendis is white; he is not a black woman. There are those out there, myself included to a degree, who feel that if you’re going to bring in a new, young, black character and put a famous superhero mantle on her shoulders, the least you could do is give her an authentic black, female voice.

On the other hand, Bendis is one of the most powerful voices in the entire comic-book industry. And he has used the power behind his voice and written words to diversify a comic-book universe that might not be as inclusive as it feels now without his efforts.

Instead of a moral victory, Riri Williams feels like a productive draw. A point for each side, but nobody wins.

....

But just as I reluctantly admit that Morales, in his historic run as Spider-Man, hasn’t done anything outlandishly Puerto Rican (no dominoes, no wondering why that last Menudo group never came out with a full album, no eating abuela’s arroz y habichuelas, no mention of the debt crisis) or black (no debating being a superhero of color — one who has his skin color covered up, granted — in the Black Lives Matter era), I have to assume that same feeling of a lack of authentic voice will come over me when I read Riri.

Bendis’s heart is in the right place. And for those who don’t know, he is proudly the father of black children, and he’d have an invested interest in making sure the company he works for reflects his diverse family.

Marvel at some point is going to have to realize that these announcements of diversity can only be halfway celebrated if the diversity isn’t behind the pages and not just in the panels. Somewhere there is a half African American/half Puerto Rican kid that would love to write Morales. (Heck, there’s a half African American/half Puerto Rican guy writing this story. They’re not hard to find, especially in New York)

As others have suggested, they'll keep going until they stop making money. And when they do, they'll turn to the government for subsidies, thereby getting the money from taxpayers anyway.

In response to WaPo's complaint, perhaps they should post a job listing for "talented female comic book writing to take over existing franchise" and see how many applicants they get.

Over or under 1.5 resumes?
 
I hope no one who complains about this is still watching current Hollywood, there's 50 years of color cinema to choose from, countless classic worth watching.

Agreed. I could watch Seven Samurai and Good, Bad and the ugly about once a week.

Brian Michael Bendis, the writer of this comic, is an unapologetic SJW - he's the same guy who retconned Iceman into being gay all along.

But he pisses off Marvel fans less because of his soapboxing (they're used to it) and more because of:

A) His utterly insipid dialogue; and
B) His notorious inability to remember anything about Marvel comics. He forgets characters exist. He disregards changes to characters' powers and talents. I think one of his more infamous gaffes was some Marvel series where he has a character called by three different names over the course of a single comic.

The second flaw is particularly egregious to a community that's as obsessed with a fictional continuity as you can get. Nothing so infuriates the comic book fandom as a comic writer who just can't get his facts on "the canon" straight. It's a mortal sin. And the devil of it is, Bendis keeps doing it with the gusto of the most subversive forum troll.

So why this preamble?

Bendis recently (as in just this past month) killed off War Machine, Iron Man's buddy - and a man of color -and is actually using that as an impetus for why Iron Man is looking for a successor. So Bendis makes up this spunky 15-year-old tech genius who's built a near-invincible suit of superhero armor in her college dorm, appearing out of nowhere.

In classic Bendis fashion, he can't even be bothered to remember he gave War Machine a daughter who is already being trained by Iron Man:
