| Topic | "Forced diversity is why Marvel Comics isn't selling" |
| Tyranthraxus 10/16/18 3:08:18 PM #32: | Firewerx posted... What's the difference between "natural" diversity and "forced" diversity in a comic book make-believe universe? In this context here, "Forced" is building up an established fanbase with a character and then completely removing that character one way or another to make room for "ORIGINAL CHARACTER DO NOT STEAL. IS LIKE MAIN CHARACTER IN EVERY WAY BUT BETTER AND ALSO (FEMALE/LGBTQ/ETHNIC)" who now replaces the main character. It's a shitty bait and switch which spits in the fans of the original just to draw in new people who probably weren't interested in the first place because the premise of the original already turned them off. If you take a look at DC's New (Chinese) Superman, he's a great non-white character, has had fantastic success, introduced a bunch of other Asian heroic characters to boot, and they didn't have to kill or depower Superman / Clark Kent to do it. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...
