Marvels Most Controversial Moments

[Nazrel]

"I wasn't raped! I just killed a guy because...I felt like it? Wait..."

I read that issue... I'm not sure the intention was that Mocking bird wasn't drugged and raped by the Phantom Rider, so much as Clint was unwilling to believe she was, and that was the real reason he divorced her (as opposed to letting her rapist fall to his death), and this was meant as an attempt of reconciling him divorcing her, and the fact that he had just murdered Bruce Banner in cold blood... I'm not suggesting this interpretation is an improvement.

Sins Past, Sins Past, Sins Past, Sins Past.. good lord I hate that story. Technically still canon too. I like to believe that when Reed rebuilt the universe in Secret War, it got retconned out.
OMD was also extremely controversial and still is to this day
This is before my time but Carol giving birth to her rapist is something I imagine had lots of outcry
Superior Spider-Man caused a lot of salt when it was first announced
Scott and Emma's fling in NXM still causes flame/ship wars today
Ultimates 3 and Ultimatum which practically killed the Ultimate Universe

Sins Past only got thrown away because the kids got killed off.

If I may, I’ll give my unsolicited opinions on the “unsolicited opinions on Israel” part. Israel has a lot of history of serious human rights violations and Inhumans treatment towards natives of the land. But anyway, back on-topic:

Who was the biggest controversy between Superior Spiderman and Miles?

This didn't even go anywhere, did it?

Also: "peanut allergy".

Who was the biggest controversy between Superior Spiderman and Miles?

Superior seemed to enrage comic fans more but Miles had Fox News running some segments on it IIRC. I still remember Glenn Beck calling it a conspiracy to make an Obama looking character Spider-Man lmao

So both in different ways

Have they ever apologized for the Captain Marvel rape thing?

I don't understand how someone could think that was a good idea for a story.

Chris Claremont fixed it in Avengers Annual #10. The matter is resolved.

Went absolutely nowhere. They immediately backtracked, Bunn & Hopeless accidentally tagteamed a redemption arc, then Leah connected the whole character arc together in a neat bow and put her in a position to be a more effective mutant leader.

This is just wrong. They shouldn't do this for any movie, let alone a comic book movie that is supposedly intending to send women and girls positive messages throughout:

Jim Shooter doesn't bend the knee. Claremont called him out in Avengers Annual 10 though.

Wow that is terrible, breaking people down to a bunch of measurements...

Oh, thanks for the info. Hopefully we are past that stage in comics now.

Sins past wasn't just a bad story.

It was immoral. Like how old was Gwen Stacy?

I still remember reading that story and screaming..no..no..NO!!

Because no college student has ever been seduced by a middle aged man? Trust me it happens often.

And the reverse is also true. Once interned at a firm where a few of the female interns were throwing themselves at a couple of the handsome, wealthy, silver haired partners -- one of whom was married. It happens.
