Making Captain America a Nazi is really dumb and shits all over what the character is about. If anything, it shows that Marvel has no respect for the characters they own or the fans of said characters. It might be the worst gimmicky character change they have ever done, and this is a company that has been doing terrible things to Spider-Man since the 90's.

I know this is a huge can of worms and I'm gonna get a lot of poo poo from bringing it up, but believe it or not, Jane Foster Thor is the same kind of thing, because now the original Thor is unworthy and everyone in the book is going on about how great Jane Foster is and how she's the best Thor ever. It doesn't bother me that Thor is a woman, it just sucks that they have to poo poo all over the original Thor and have the new one be a Mary Sue who goes on tirades about politics. If they wanted Thor to be a woman, they should have just made him a woman. I mean, Loki's been a lady before, why not Thor?

Just treat your characters and readers with a little respect. People get mad when you poo poo on them.

I kinda feel like a thing that both comic books and professional wrestling have in common is that their creative staff have an adversarial relationship with their fans and sometimes purposefully go out of their way to spite them.

The internet is both the best and worst thing. It's this wonderful tool for communication and information but if it's taught us anything, it's that people we look up to and admire are no different than anybody else. They gently caress up just as much as we do, and it's worse because everyone is watching them.

Giving people twitter was the worst thing to happen.

It was better when comic book writers, fans and journalists didn't get into bitter, angry arguments on twitter.

Secondly, in the interest of fairness I looked at your post history to confirm that you're the person who said they hadn't read comics in a while, and look, you're a giant transphobe who's egregiously cavalier about what constitutes abuse and uses "retard" as a pejorative in 2017, so I don't really care what you think about who's a nazi and who's not.
