      Also the fact that he’s the CEO of a for-profit gigacorporation?

      Marvel’s Earth would be a social hellscape even without the “villains”.

    Reject super “heros”, embrace super “villains”. 50% of villains in comic books have good points and are objectvly more right them the suposedly heros.

      Definition: “Super-villain”

      A killer who loves children

      One who is well-skilled in destruction, as well as building

      I very much enjoy the stories where the villain is a villain because they had something horrible happen to them or people they love because of superheroes, and were simply brushed off as collateral damage. Especially if it was a situation where massively excessive force was used, like “your plasma vision went through an apartment wall and killed my entire family, all to stop a single thief!”

      It commentates on the West’s attitudes toward both war and police (mis)conduct pretty well.

    This comic describe my hardship in Capitalist society under an ableist abusive parents in a Hong Kong Canadian community of fake refugees. The superhero cult convince people to abandon real problems for imaginary problems and it even lead to victim blaming policy against repressed people. I can know that my extended family are fake refugees because they think that people suffer from oppression by their personal choice which implies that the victim of Communism either fake their repression or provoke the repression against themselves.
