I believe having a consistent “continuity” would be helpful, as exciting as it is for people to see Keaton return as Batman, Affleck continue to make cameos, etc.- the TV versions and film versions possibly confuse the casual mainstream audience. The proper head of the DC Cinematic Universe will most likely have to

Could we incorporate the multiple times Prince Namor is quoted as calling the surface people “White Devils” and how creator Bill Everett (a Socialist and ahead-of-his-time Golden Age writer/artist/letterer- Stan Lee did not create Namor btw) has multiple instances of Namor’s “War against the White Man” throughout

Hey, those people have been through a LOT. Look at all the times they were outraged when White British guys played Jesus- oh wait

I agree. But you know- pop culture fans are owed things.

Again, I ask people to not look at him as “Alan Moore” the figure in modern comics history but look at him as a human being who worked for DC for about five or six years back in the 1980s’ and has always spoken out about the unjust and sinister tactics deployed that he became alarmed by. Until people read and read and

Is it self hatred or is it the very understandable reaction of someone who was literally lied to and assured that he and co-creator Dave Gibbons would legally have publishing rights reverted to them within a specific amount of time? All of this is documented and easily researchable. Why is Moore deserving of such

It’s unfortunate the usual “cranky old Alan Moore” narrative is used here by supposed pop culture enthusiasts when Moore, regardless of your opinion of him or not, was purposely lied to and misled about the publishing rights of his work reverting to him after five years by the corporate owners of DC Comics. I don’t

You’re right, I apologize.

The sexist bro behind it all getting Jen’s blood sort of confused me and I apologize if this was explained and I missed it or otherwise covered here in the comments- doesn’t Bruce tell her early on that her DNA, like his, has a component that allows her to deal/process with Gamma Radiation, hence her surviving and

She was absolutely on the wrong side of things but she deserves the same opportunity to learn and realize she’s mistaken, like any human being is. I had a good friend of mine tell me his own hesitancy was because of the history of African Americans being tested on and given faulty medications, which I, being White,

Awwwwww

I believe Moore is correct but it’s important to stress that Moore specifically means a matter of priorities; we exist in a world where more people care about the lives and deaths of fictional characters and re-castings of fictional characters and can take the time and energy to comment upon them and add their voice

That character is actually helpfully called “The Wrecker”. In the comics, a construction crew gets their equipment powered up by Loki- can’t make it up! The gloriousness madness of Silver Age comics...

Yikes! I had no idea that was the plot of George of the Jungle! A (genuine) thanks- guess I’m not pitching that to any mockbuster producers now

Agreed. And that’s a huge problem within that industry and medium: grown men trying to relive the era they have nostalgia for, with no concern of characters that took root before those long gone characters.

The late 19th/early 20th Century was still fascinated with Africa as a dramatic literary device and, unfortunately, it was a fascination of “how can we put our White Colonizer Entitlement on this” which begat Tarzan and a host of imitators in Pulps and Comics. In 2016 when the last Tarzan film came out, a friend

I read Priscilla’s book as a teenager after reading that the Depeche Mode song “Personal Jesus” was inspired by it, which was a weird thing to reconcile for a 15 year old me. I am concerned since she has retroactively dismissed so much of it and said the co-writer/Editor pressured her to add things that didn’t happen.

It’s still a disappointment that more fans are either unaware or, worse- indifferent as to what Marvel Comics did to Monica Rambeau in the late 80s’ and won’t speak up about it. Monica was the original female Captain Marvel and created and written as a competent leader, who inevitably became leader of the Avengers.

“And we had a conversation after that, with Ryan (Coogler, director), about how we can get some of this voice, not the storyline, but just some of that voice, into (Black) Panther 2. And now, of course, it is remarkably sad and bittersweet. But I’m really happy we had him, and I’m really happy he did it for us. I’m

Of course, Boseman IS in this upcoming sequel, albeit possibly in just voiceover film. Kevin Feige let it slip that dialogue Boseman recorded during his marathon “What If?” session was taken aside for ‘Wakanda Forever’.
