I still don't get why they don't just create new characters. Not only do they destroy existing characters, they ONLY destroy existing characters. Such lack of imagination! I can come with one now, idk how about Hyena-man, who has the power to transform into half man, half hyena with berserker type moves. How about a black super hero that is analogous to Aquaman, except instead of fish and the ocean, it's the African savannah or jungle, etc.
They literally said that new characters don't sell and fans reject them (as they should).
One of the He-Man executives blatantly outright said they hijack existing characters and franchises because they have an established fanbase, and they use that fanbase to spread their propaganda. Remember, you can't indoctrinate people with a degenerate agenda if you don't have people to indoctrinate, which is why they anchor their propaganda to existing franchises and established characters.
Ah, found the article: https://boundingintocomics.com/2021/07/05/netflix-director-claims-king-grayskull-and-andra-race-swapped-in-masters-of-the-universe-revelations-because-new-characters-could-be-easily-rejected/
Here is what Ted Biaselli had to say about them race-swapping King Greyskull...
Wow, so at the end of the day, it's talentless people hijacking the art because they don't know how to get to the top of the market.
And then wrapping themselves in an LGBTQ flag to deflect criticism. It's so blatantly fucking obvious it's almost sad really. This whole SJW culture is really about companies wanting to protect their investment. They don't really want representation, they just know that criticizing a trans lead character is social suicide so their product's shittyness is masked.
Don't play by their rules, call it what it is. The fag flag.
Which, of course, is why they're never going to sell to anywhere except the People's Congress of the Soviet Union. They've marked any feedback that isn't mindless affirmation as "hate speech" and then wonder why they don't get any better.
Ghostbusters was the foreshadowing of what hollywood's doing now, and weinrapist being exposed only sped up the agenda. is it that they're ALL rapists????
Because they lack even a modicum of creativity and they know that their pastiche self-insert social agenda megaphone characters go over about as well as a turd in the punch bowl at a high school dance (see: the New Warriors reboot that didn't get off the ground). They need a way in to be able to blast their message to as many eyes as they can and they can't wait for their trash to gain popularity, so they co-opt existing characters into their agenda (Iceman, Tim Drake's Robin, Squirrel Girl) or replace them with race-lifted Mary Sue versions that are supposedly better than the originals (Riri as Ironheart, Sam Alexander as Nova, Kamala as Ms. Marvel, Amadeus Cho as Hulk, et cetera).
Great point. I read his stuff in ultimate comics and looking back I’m not sure why the writers wouldn’t change his name. Green Lantern is a Corp so it makes sense.
Yea they have to latch on to a popular name but it would be a challenge for a good writer.
Exactly. There are easily other names, and he could still inherit the role plus the powers or whatever.
What about Poofta Man?
If you touch him you get AIDS.
If his name was Arachnobruh and he blew huge vape clouds people would have bought it. He's just not Peter Parker and he never will be.
Spiderthug, Spiderthug, nabs whatever a robber does, can he spin, from a web, no he cant, it's a caddillac, look out! Here comes the spider thug.
Destroying cultural icons isn't a bug, it's a feature. That's the whole point of it all. It isn't an accident that all of these old heroes are being degraded and humiliated. It's all for the sake of the revolution. The older cultural values must be torn down before the new ones can be established.
True. They never respect the older ones, normally making them look pathetic or just killing them so the newer, more DIVERSE version can occupy their place.
Its the same way they treat societies. Infect the successful ones in an attempt to take them over, because they are parasites and cant create
