So... X-Men has traditionally talked about LGBTQ stuff... but having it is in X-Men an "agenda" being inserted? Not following the logic here....I actually agree that X-Men is not a bad place to discuss those topics, especially considering X-Men's initial concept... My issue with their agenda is when it's inserted into literally EVERYTHING constantly.
I just happy i can watch because i still healthy many my friends already gone. At this point on life I try to get away as far from my depressionSorry to be the bearer of bad news, but... You maaaaaaay want to keep your expectations low. The bombastic announcement of Morph joining the cast as newly non-binary rather suggests that it's been... what's that phrase... "updated for a modern audience". But who knows, might get pleasantly surprised by Disney-owned Marvel... it'd be a change.
Short and oversimplified answer, western style art/artist (which is ironic because Jim Lee is Korean American). Long answer, a lot of 90's artists can't draw Asian faces so they all look the same/similar to the artist's default face, which is usually Caucasian looking. Like look at Jubilee. Like, look at this:if psylock is supposed to be asian, how come she looks not asian most of the time? (i know she's possessing some other girl's body)
Wait, you would NOT describe Disney as safe or profit driven?I can describe Marvel and Disney as many things; safe, anti-oppressive and profit driven would not be one of them.
it never talked about any particular issue but addressed all social issues low-key.So... X-Men has traditionally talked about LGBTQ stuff... but having it is in X-Men an "agenda" being inserted? Not following the logic here.
So... it's already there, just low-key. But it being said not as low-key is somehow inserting something that was already there? Real talk, I was an immigrant to the US as a kid so my first language isn't English. Am I not understanding the word "insert" or something? Like, can someone explain it to me like I'm still learning English how you can put object A into object B when object A is already in object B?it never talked about any particular issue but addressed all social issues low-key.
I didnt exactly expect them to carry over the old shading style,since that supposedly cost quite a bit of money but man...that looks like utter arse.First second into the preview we get a quick fanshot of Calisto and Leech...which is then ruined by the Daily Bugle proudly displaying a line discussing the "Hellfire Gala" - the worst story out of the entire run. Written by Eddie Brock, photos by Peter Parker. Which just wrecked continuity as the original X-MEN & Spider-man TAS ran concurrently and cross-overed. Poorly drawn and poorly animated FoH protesters. A shot of either Magneto or Shredder facing the UN. Can YOU tell the difference?

What is literally wrong with the line art? Nothing looks right at all. Was this done entirely by AI?! Oh, and Jubilee's VA refused to return because "she ain't 'Asian'"!

As a reminder, THIS is what the show looked like 30 years ago:

Why would anyone? How long has Disney been running all its properties to the ground now, 7 years? And much longer for Marvel. Failure after failure, "the message", as Iger puts it on hisWait, you would NOT describe Disney as safe or profit driven?
I'm gonna send my reply to you via DM as to not go off topic. But basically, I agree with you for the most part. I just had a different context for what safe and profit-driven constituted.Why would anyone? How long has Disney been running all its properties to the ground now, 7? And much longer for Marvel. Failure after failure, "the message", as Iger puts it on hisYou must be registered to see the links, always comes on top of "entertainment". No one gets fired, no one gets replaced, cronies run wild as agendas escalate year after year along with the incendiary rhetoric and new lows in reception. They've successfully alienated just about everyone who isn't a terminally online extremist political pundit on a few watchlistsYou must be registered to see the links(You must be registered to see the links). There is nothing safe or profit driven about how Disney has been operating, any division you can think of except probably licensing is falling apart and the mythical "silent majority" said to back this late stage american sycophant fetish doesn't turn up.
it address all those issues without addressing them. mutants are different and one could consider them a euphemism.So... it's already there, just low-key. But it being said not as low-key is somehow inserting something that was already there? Real talk, I was an immigrant to the US as a kid so my first language isn't English. Am I not understanding the word "insert" or something? Like, can someone explain it to me like I'm still learning English how you can put object A into object B when object A is already in object B?
Right, none of that addresses how this is an agenda being inserted. If anything, from what you're saying, it seems like this is a pre-existing subtext.it address all those issues without addressing them. mutants are different and one could consider them a euphemism.
Sadly, everything has got to political and if it isn't, it'll be turned into it -- woke, woke, woke, woke, woke, woke, woke... I'm so sick of that term!Right, none of that addresses how this is an agenda being inserted. If anything, from what you're saying, it seems like this is a pre-existing subtext.
Actually, I'm more interested in Psylocke's ass at the moment. People are saying she should have big booty but most depictions I've seen her in the comics, she doesn't. Cause, you know, ninja. Was wondering where the big booty Psylocke came from.can we have less discussion about tepid edgy teen political takes and more discussion of rogue's ass
Ass-tangental discourse is also good, yeah. Might be a capcom thing. View attachment 1708103022284.webpActually, I'm more interested in Psylocke's ass at the moment.

Just because she has a smaller ass in the comics doesn't mean she can't have a bigger one.Actually, I'm more interested in Psylocke's ass at the moment.
