I just assume all the Claremont X-Men not from a different continent are from New York. It's actually pretty clever because Deerfield is a suburb with a large Jewish population, but not an obvious Jewish suburb like Skokie. Touché, Claremont, touché.

I know Marvel has to keep the sliding timescale in mind and all, but if they slipped in a bit about Kitty heading off to space adventures right around the start of football season, only to come back months later to learn about the very rapid decline of The Bears while she was gone, it would be a story beat that stays relevant for decades to come.

Joe Bennet did issue an apology. Hang on, ill find it. It sounded very rehearsed and insincere but they did address it. Edit: here https://www.google.com/amp/s/io9.gizmodo.com/marvel-artist-joe-bennett-responds-after-immortal-hulk-1846198688/amp

I like how the apology mentions that he's sad about how he depicted the Star of David, and yet offers no explanation for why a Star of David was on the window of the jewelry store in the first place. Like, without the Star of David, the entire thing is plausibly a horrible spelling mistake that happened to be a slur. Terrible, but transposing letters when writing backwards can be understandable. The Cronemberg thing is understandable too, though the two together is a clear red flag. You add that Star of David though, and every single excuse is gone. You don't misspell a Star of David on a window.

I don't think anyone's brought it up since Claremont, but Kitty is explicitly a fan of the Chicago Cubs. She says something in Claremont's last issue of Excalibur like, "I'm a Cubs fan. We thrive on long shots." IIRC, when the Cubs won the World Series in 2016, it was while Kitty was in space with the Guardians. I was joking that if she'd come back to Earth after that, someone really should've written at least a one-panel gag where she immediately started doing alternate-universe checks.

Emma Caufield has openly discussed how Whedon would scream at her on set in front of everyone. Nicholas Brendan traces his addiction problems to dealing with being belittled and mocked by Whedon endlessly.

I dunno, it seems reasonable to me that while she wants to voice support for the victims she doesn't necessarily want to share an extended story of the time. I wouldn't hold that against her any more than I'd hold charisma carpenter staying quiet until now against her, you know? It's her right to determine how much she shares and when, I'm just glad that when asked she's supporting the victims

Somebody in CD posted a screenshot of a statement of support for Charisma Carpenter from Michelle Trachtenberg where she says she saw abusive behavior that might imply Whedon was a... “creep” towards her as well.

Ding ding ding Thousands of talented performers’s careers cut short because they were labeled as “difficult”, ie, not putting up with a director’s cruelty and/or sexual harassment. It’s such a massive loss when you truly think about it.
