Stan Lee and Marvel when full PC retard in the late 1990s....
Comic books weren’t any of this sh!t...
They were entertainment...
Comic books are about one of the most overrated “entertainment” features of the 20th century. Now most of it is just PC/SJW ultraleft brainwashing.
Comic books are for morons.
Not in the ‘50’s...They were plain fun...
Leave it up to a bunch of pseudo-intellectuals to take the fun out of them...
I liked how his earlier super heroes were flawed. Spiderman was a teenage kid with all the problems of a high schooler. Ironman struggled with alcohol abuse. Thor in his mortal form was crippled. Daredevil was blind. Wolverine’s anger was a strength and his curse. These were flawed characters which made them less “super” and more relatable.
Comic books were for kids 5-10 years old...
Apparently Stan Lee had strong Clinton ties.
For some extreme liberals/ militant atheists,
Comic Books or Fantasy Novels have replaced the Bible in the way they interpret the world. They try to portray a Utopian Paradise in line drawings and five color prints.
Many others would call the same thing a very obvious piece of propaganda, bent on goals to indoctrinate, and nothing more.
Never read comic books after 1960-61...Outgrew them...
Read Clair Bee’s “Chip Hilton” series...
I actually learned things from comics, and they fired imagination.
Yep...
Plus, there were some really goofy fun...Chip n’ Dale...Tom and Jerry...All the cartoon characters back then...
I didn’t even know they still made comics...LOL
Apparently he knew too much, and Hillary told someone to bump him off.
I agree. They introduced some interesting concepts, and in many cases, they were just great art. I still read a lot of old comics and I now take the time to savor the illustrations more than I did when I was younger.
Yes they do. I’m not interested enough to buy them, but I’ve seen some of the new comic books in regular book stores.
Many of the newer comics are very dark, violent and morbid, not imagery I want lying around my room for very long.
Of course, the audience for this kind of approach caters to people who liked old TV programs like Adult Swim or Family Guy Cartoons. Strange, vulgar and bizarre for the sake of being bizarre. There’s a market for that.
There was a lot of veiled adult humor and inferences that I didn’t get at the time, but lots of references to things that made one look elsewhere to learn more.
(And I liked flights of fancy like The Bottle City of Kandor ;-)
