As a kid I was an avid Comic book reader.

I never liked Captain America.

Superman, Batman, The Black Hawks, They were my books.

I lliked the Disney Comic, Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse. Back when Walt Disney was running things.

How many kids actually read comics anymore? I would say that most comic book collectors and readers are over 30 years old. Marvel is only insulting most of their readers.

Such fools. When people read fiction it’s becuase they want an escape from reality, they don’t want to be reminded of politics.

I think that I read somewhere that it was Stan Lee that insisted .. in the filming of Spiderman that .. “Truth, Justice and the American way” be changed to .. “Truth, Justice and .. All That Stuff”.

Ol’ Supe came here to Earth in 1938. He should have made mincemeat out of the Germans and the Japs, no atomic bomb needed. Wha’ hoppened, huh?

Yeah, but he came here as a baby, even if he was a really tough baby. Would you really want a 2 or 3 year old killing krauts and japs?

Also, it is my understanding that, originally, Superman wasn't nearly as powerful as he is now. At first he could over jump over buildings - now he can fly. And before he could withstand blasts up to a Howitzer, but now he can take a nuclear blast and laugh.

June, 1938 was when the first grown up Superman appears. He would have come to earth in the 19-teens.

That is correct. The explanation of his powers changed, too. At first he was just an evolutionarily advanced Kryptonian transplanted to Earth. Then Earth's weaker gravity was used to explain his super-strength. Then they threw in Earth's yellow sun super charging him(which didn't explain his ability to fly through solar systems at near light speeds).

He eventually developed a "code against killing", which would crimp his style in war time. But in the war ... check out this cover:

According to DC, Hitler had a supernatural artifact called “The Spear of Destiny” that repelled superhumans.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Exactly. Looks like The Cap’ has become a mouthpiece for Marvel’s and Stan Lee’s Lib loving pablum.

Thor USED to kick commie ass way back in the early 60’s...Radioactive Man was Red Chinese...

Last summer’s march sure messed with liberal’s heads.

They should go live in Europe. It’s much nicer there.

Captain America? The real Captain America, Randy Couture didn’t say that.

That was the last 'Superman' flick, and that 'change' angered a lot of people...box office was tepid, at best.

That's pretty weak. Superman, Flash or Green Lantern could have worked around that the same woy the original Green Lantern had to work around wooden weapons.

Supes could have dropped a munition or a paratrooper on Hitler's head without coming near the spear. What did Hirohito have, the "Cone of Silence?"

Captain America is a Marvel Comic. Marvel Comics is owned by Disney. I don’t think much more needs to be said about who side Captain America is on.

marvel and disney both suck

Marvel Comics: Captain America Says Tea Parties Are Dangerous and Racist

yeah right losers

[ruination]

Was Stan Lieber a red diaper baby? That would make sense.

[plinyelder]

I stand corrected.

Geeze .. I guess DC is on board with the PC Crap too!

(Sorry everyone for posting spurious information)

Thanks who knows what evil?

Waaaay back in the 70s when I was a youngster, Steve Rogers had a stint as a character named Nomad because he discovered (first-hand) that the leader of an organization called the Secret Empire -- which was hell-bent on making the U.S. into a dictatorship -- was none other than the occupant of the White House at the time.

Yah. That's right. The leader of the evil Secret Empire was none other than Richard M. Nixon.

Not to mention that one of the biggest criminal organizations in Marvel Comics back in the 70s was a fictional oil company -- Roxxon Oil.

You're absolutely right. Marvel Comics has been publishing leftist drivel like this for a looong time.

Wow. The America-hating Left sure loves the government of the country they hate so much.

[Zionist Conspirator]

Haven’t all the mainstream comic books turned Left long ago?
