Stan Lee thinks everything is awesome. Stan Lee once greenlit a show called 'Stripperella'. Stan Lee also, contrary to popular opinion, did not invent Captain America, that was Jack Kirby and Joe Simon.

Stan Lee just being around getting to be that old guy from marvel is awesome so he's glad of anything really

Really the thing I'm surprised about is that they did this change so close to the civil war movie's release. IIRC they don't try to do any major character changes when the movies are coming out. I remember the "Doctor Octopus is Spider-Man" stuff got fixed up when one of the amazing spider-man films came out.

Thanks for the meal tickets Kirby! You dead rear end in a top hat! -Stan Lee, pissing into Jack Kirby's exhumed and open casket in the paupers cemetery.

All I'm saying is it's kinda disrespectful, to tone it back from the guy who brought up people thinking that doing this showed Marvel hates Jews.

But you don't care about comics at all and think it's childish and dumb to care about comics anyway so this is basically a blank post for all the worth it holds.

Considering they created him before the US entered WWII because they were morally repulsed by what the Nazis were doing, and they received death threats from Nazi sympathizers but refused to stop writing, yes, they would be angry

You're all massively overthinking this.

Marvel made a lazy plot twist in a cynical attempt at getting attention, and everyone knows it is a lazy and cynical attempt at getting attention. So people are mocking them by making similarly lazy image edits. That's it.

I'd imagine the ghost of Kirby would be more upset at his family losing that court case to give them some residuals from his creations than the opening of a story where Cap has been replaced by a robot or whatever.

Yeah, but there are some turbo-nerds who are legitimately upset over nothing. See: people saying its anti-Semitic because Cap was created by two Jewish men.

Cap went pro-Hydra at the same time as DC launched something called Rebirth. What's DC Rebirth you ask? I have no idea, I was busy reading Captain America memes all week.

From what I've seen DC Rebirth starts out by essentially claiming that "Now you see we at DC may have made some mistakes in the past several years but oh golly do we promise to make only good comics from now on." Idiots are actually convinced.

i want to say that the only good things to come out of superhero comics are almost invariably indictments of their concepts i.e. watchmen, but i think they do a good enough job indicted themselves

My theory is that it is some sort of nerd pathological need to try and convince the others that they are not one of "that kind" of nerd



It is a fruitless endeavor, for by posting in the fanart thread they have already proven themselves to be one of "that kind"

Holy poo poo, QI fanart. I always knew it was out there intellectually, but to see it in front of me, and like this... :suicide:

I mean, no Jack Dee or Ronni Ancona? Has this person actually watched the show?

The art style is 100% from Scandinavia and the World.

Which. I mean, is at least consistent given that artist's fondness for gay shipping everything.
