So there was the tranny writer. But they said she was fired and the lore was respected.

Ive seen nothing to indicate either way. But im interested if there was any dessecration and what it was.

Anybody reviewed it thats trustworthy?

So i just completed the full initial run of Ultimate Marvel, from Ultimate Spider Man #1 to Ultimate End. And ive got some thoughts.

First of all. I started collecting phsycially when i was a kid, around Death of Spiderman. The only ultimate comic i read was Ultimate Comics X-Men, which was one of those "your book got canceled heres this other one" for my X Men Legacy subscription. That quickly became my favorite book, despite hating Kitty, i really loved the reservation concept, the sentient seed. That whole piece, which makes it a crime that it really only lasted about 4 issues. Having read the entire series now. Hot damn were they obsessed with Kitty.

I wont go through the whole of Ultimate, other than that the transition from Vol 1 to Vol 2 of Ultimate spider man was horrible.

I will say, folks the cracks were there. All New Ultimates finished in 2014 and it is top 3 worst runs of any book ive ever read. Packed full of the "teenies angsting with shit art" the sitcom "oh hey im actually gay" lets break up for no reason oh were back togehter for no reason soap opera fest.

"Right wing" militia as a stomped villian that even the Scourge hates because "im not racist! I just kills criminals, and suggesting theres a demographic there is racist!"

The evil corporation is messing up the usually totally fine drug trade by POSIONING it. Yeah thats how you run a business, murder your customers.

I hate cloak and dagger, bombshell is the stupidest fuck after "black widow," and miles... it really shows you how much the writer matters. Miles' first run is as enjoyable as any other book ive ready. In All New Ultimates he reminds me why im racist.

I especially hate bombshells whiny drug dealer boyfriend drama. Its supposed to be totally radical, and its "real" in the sense thay yeah ive met people like her. But they were stupid retaded fucks, and i hated them too.

Thats it. Looks like shit.

Fish face mcblondey has long outstayed her welcome for me. Is 80 pounds, and looks like a china doll.

Cgi looks like shit.

Effects look like shit

Arm looks like shit

Theres shitty "somehow palpatine returned" lettering to hand hold you through the movie you already watched.

Theres even a fucking "i am the jedi" moment

Looks like shit.

I’ve noticed a few themes that resonate me get snuck into certain media from time to time. Sometimes it’s clearly an accident. Harry Potter building a world based on concealed carry, acceptable targets, and the media being completely subverted to destroy people’s lives. Not intentional. Some other things make me wonder….

Beyond the obvious social messaging, there’s some one step implications that are leaned into without being explicitly stated. Whoever it is, they’re good. And they’ve been there a long time. Or maybe there’s been different ones, like the True Church, popping up across history. Brad Bird maybe. Disney Pixar is the one that jumps out to me, since they’re meant to propagandize generally, so its interesting to see where they own goal themselves, or where some motivated individuals managed to slip something in…

A Bug’s Life. Starting early on, which is what leads me to believe it’s been different people over time. But I think this one should be pretty obvious, social elites leaching off a populist organization that eventually really only has to flex to get them to stop. The elite group uses public humiliation of anybody who steps out of line, struggle sessions with the legitimate ruling class, and random violence against the ordinary citizens as a pastime of the mercenary enforcers. The uprising is explicitly NOT collectivist either, it’s an individual innovator giving the masses the tools to overthrow the oppressor, and then adopt HIS attitudes and inventions. That’s not power to the people, that’s power to Flik. He even marries into the royal family immediately after.

The Incredibles. The truly exceptional are not appreciated by the masses, banished, but will inevitably prove themselves invaluable for a brief period of praise before being resented again. The villain specifically seeking equity over equality and killing off everybody who could be considered exceptional. Straightforward really.

Ratatouille. “Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. “ But the films demographics make this less egalitarian than it seems. The rats produce one great artist out of millions, with the rest being fit for society but only as manual labor, managed by the exceptional. Outside of that setup, they are thieves and vandals. Who creates nothing, and only takes. Compared with the humans, who produce many great artists in a single city. There is harmony between rats and humans, but it is predicated on every side knowing where they stand. And the reality of the Rat Traps should rats choose antagonism over being cooperative. Plus the absolutely brutal takedown of Critics and journalists at the end.

Zootopia. Come on. Two races that are different, can get along through intense work, but are fundamentally incompatible have their differences accentuated by a third racial group that hates both equally and believes it has a historical right to cause a civilization level apocalypse as revenge for their treatment in the past? And then they went and made them Rams and Sheep. Like c’mon.

There's probably more, but those are the ones that came to my mind most easily.

I found this today. I'm on it. Curious if it's what I think it is.
