Do you mean the sales from book stores that had already been on the decline to begin with?

Why is it pandering to diversify your roster? Do people not just willingly do that in your mind?

If you're not looking for any honest discussion, agreement, meeting halfway or middle ground, don't bother arguing with me. Selfish narcissists need not apply.

Wouldn't the reasoning and background for creating the X-Men be considered "sjw-y" to some select people's standards today?

No, because the new characters did not replace existing ones. They didn't have to prove themselves by literally stealing someone else's identity.

Characters have been replacing eachother for various reasons since the golden age of comics though. Just because they change the characters skin color or sexuality with the change doesn't really mean much either way imo.

Comics have been on the decline for years while pandering to one group or another has existed for decades.

ms marvel is one of the better comics, spider-gwen is liked a by a whole lot of people
comics have just been going down over the years even though you'd think the success of the MCU would help

I never even see them in bookstores. I thought people had to order them or go to a comic store.

Hindered as the diversity is fake (you'll find some comics with black people turning into apes).
