Do you have a problem with a gay superman?
Vote
Gabe Eltaeb announced he was quitting on a youtube livestream while talking with fellow DC Comics worker, Ethan Van Sciver as he said he'll serve out his contract with them before leaving yelling "I'm tired of this s***" and to scrap the slogan "Truth, justice and the american way" in favour of "truth, justice and a better tomorrow" was "f***ing nonsense" to him He continued "I'm tired of them ruining these characters. They don't have a right to do this. What really pissed me off was saying truth, justice and a better world. F*** that, it was truth, justice and the amerian way. My grandpa almost died in WW2; we don't have a right to destroy s*** that people died for to give us. They call us bigots and racist and s***,i would ask them, find me in the f***ing mainstream, not on the fringes, one f***ing book, one f***ing t-shirt, one movie that says that leftism is bad, and conservatism is good, find it for me, they f***ing wont, they're not letting people have a voice, they're the f***ing bigots. Sorry, that's been bottle up for 5 years and i'm a proud conservative American and Superman should always be a figure for the right. We've now bent down to the woke crowd to make him gay and i promise you he will not be a weak superman because of it" In response to that rant, Van Sciver described the former colourist's agenda and what he was going through and said "He had a lot to say, a lot of feelings and a lot of thoughts that wasn't able to share beause he was workign for DC comics. And that's the reality, you cannot come out and be a conservative and criticize the company you work for in this way. You have to be completely supportive of the corporate agenda, whatever it is. You have to keep your negative or critical opinions to yourself, and it's so liberating to be able to not work for DC comics and be able to say exactly what you think. And i think that's what Gabe is going through" Gabe then posted a further video stating "And i'm sorry i didn't say anything sooner we're going to stand up to these tyrants and we're not going to let them intimidate us there's a lot more of us than there are of them. Conservatives pay their salaries. Who do they think is gonna keep them afloat? Poor woke liberals who are too busy doing nothing and stealing from us, keep dreaming" Former Sueprman actor and conservative actor Dean Cain also blasted the decision claiming the move to make Superman Gay is an offense to all the real men of America and they will not stand for it, The decision to change the classic motto and sexuality of the superhero sparked mixed reaction after Jon Kent and Lois Lane's son would be coming out as bisexual and began dating a refugee "hacktivist" reporter The change will come in the November issue of Superman: Son of Kal-El Gabe - Beggar https://i.imgur.com/CV1rNMA.jpg https://i.imgur.com/rQyclfb.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bEAONby.jpg Superman https://i.imgur.com/dXJuRh4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ARaZdcw.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VOqPTU8.jpg https://i.imgur.com/n5893n6.jpg https://i.imgur.com/XswZ9cr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/WfDmAoJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/HqSBbEK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/v9eEBjk.jpg https://i.imgur.com/1bgbuJx.jpg --- The News Will Continue...For Now call me mrduckbear, sweater monkeys.

Guy's going pretty hard with his rhetoric, but I think it's a common sentiment that comics in general are leaning way too hard into pandering territory.

Jon Kent isn't from a spin-off and he's actually from the main universe just like his dad. Not only that the comics he's been in have been critically acclaimed and highly popular before Bendis got his hands on him. He has been a beloved character since day one. That said it's funny as hell that idiots claim they're ruining the character by making him bi. He's a relatively new character, the kid barely has had time to have a relationship of any sort. ...

Conservative snowflakes getting BTFO over comic books never ceases to be funny. I especially like how he's claiming that the most illegal immigrant in fiction should be a figure for the right.

What even is that?Originally it was propaganda, then it just became a cool tag line. To be fair about the alien stuff, Clark was raised from infancy in Kansas. As he said in Man of Steel, "I grew up in Kansas; I'm about as American as it gets," so it's really just a representation of that. --- I write Naruto Fanfiction. But I am definitely not a furry. ...
