Zore posted:Mostly a lot of stupid stuff in the original comic where they hid the relationship between Jefferson and Aaron for a dramatic reveal by having Jefferson go by Morales. And the white dude writer really didn't think through the implication of Jefferson's last name being Davis. Mark Millar's a CHUD, or it's British Isles, Brexit-loving equivalent. He knew exactly what it meant and he probably thought it was so loving clever.

Zore posted:I thought Brian Michael Bendis created Miles and all his cas Ah, might be confusing him with Millar, because Miles was originally part of the Ultimate Universe, which was Millar's brainchild. I forget that both Miles was created by Bendis and about a year or so after the Ultimate Marvel line came out. Bendis, as far as I know, is a cool dude.

African Americans being named after presidents is a cultural thing, but they're usually U.S.A. presidents.

I thought I remember hearing that Brian Michael Bendis called him Jefferson as an attempt to 'Take It Back' from the racists, or maybe just to make them mad. Which is sad and hilarious, but not in any way he intended. Unless I'm wrong and that's not the reason.

“Hi! I, a creation of a subsidiary of ABC/Disney who is wholly owned by them, encourage you to accept the status quo as empowering to you, or at least unobjectionable. Hooray America!” It’s maybe not so different from those War bond ads where Superman kicks a bug-eyed racist caricature of a Japanese man.

I'd have guessed that was more common. Most recent bookstores I've been in give manga an aisle or two while western trade paperbacks get maybe a case.

I'd have a hard time believing Sony would agree to a contract where *Holland's* portrayal is somehow immune to the rights issue but gently caress, if anyone could do it it's the Disney lawyers.

SpiderHyphenMan posted:Is this whole kerfuffle over the Spider-Man film rights specifically, or are the rights to Tom Holland's portrayal of the character also on the table? Because if it's the former then Disney can have Tom Holland star in Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man on Disney+ in 2022 while a late-twenties Peter Parker (played by a 35 year old man) helps Tom Hardy punch Carnage in the face on the big screen. If it's the latter I genuinely have no idea what Disney is going to do if a deal doesn't happen. it's over spiderman and all the characters associated with him showing up in marvel studios movies and MCU stuff showing up in sony's spiderman movies what disney is going to do is continue to make billions and billions of dollars and be pissy that they aren't making even more billions
