Original and traditional are synonymous in this case; the hero as established, and throughout the height of his popularity, is as I described. Changes made after the character had faded into obscurity are not part of his tradition. Superman is traditionally featured in red trunks over a blue unitard; the current

Gay characters, plotlines are routinely cut for Asian markets (as witnessed by the flap over ONE LINE marking a minor character in Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast as queer causing a huge uproar).

That’s exactly what they said about a movie led by a woman.

“He also suggests representation is something “we’ve been doing for a long time” which is debatable, up until last year at least.”

I’m very much looking forward to this, but then I remember that I was very much looking forward to Nobody’s Fool, too.

80's horror movies?! We all know what that means: Gus Kenworthy in tighty-whities. God bless you, Ryan Murphy.

Nice. I prefer this one, though.

It is asinine. This is just the result of a bunch of ad men sitting in a conference room at Warner Bros going, “Everyone’s going to be SUPER CONFUSED if we keep calling him Captain Marvel when Marvel already has a female Captain Marvel!”

Good to know, thanks!

You’re doing a better job of justifying it than the movie did, but it’s still a cop-out: they just found the concept of Superman meets Big too juicy to pass up, which is understandable, and I’d certainly allow it IF it didn’t violate the spirit of a pre-existing character. But comics are nothing if not constantly
