Minorities In Comics and Related Media

True but now it's like he was part of shady stuff "for the greater good because of who put him there

Man this issue was just like whoa


Side note: All-new Ghost Rider is gone

I'm gonna miss it

I suppose but we'll get the full story next month. And hopefully we'll get more insight on that family of Hydras.

Alright I never checked out All-New Ghost Rider or any Ghost Rider for that matter. Was it a decent series?

[7thangel]

I have a feeling he either took that role so Junior can be someone guy named Virgil Hawkins (or worst black Wally West-since DC has no teen black males anymore) or a safety net to make him John Stewart and ax the Cyborg film-if Black Panther movie does better than expected. Unless they are thinking Will Smith as Batwing.

or maybe he just took the role because he's interested

With SOny cancelling the release of the iInterview--it makes me suspect that N. Korea hackers had more damaging racist and homophobic emails and such to release. No was this solely because some Major Theater chains backed out ( prolly they were gonna be exposed by hacking as well)

[Michael P]

There were also threats of attacks on theaters. I don't think they were threats that could have been carried out, but it doesn't take too much to frighten an executive into doing something stupid.

And when something like 90% of the theaters in the country are refusing to show your movie, yeah, you probably do have to pull it from release.

Poltroons all of them, though.

I still think it was mainly due to the cyber attacks. Nothing like consumers reading how higher-ups really feel about people.

So reading Miltiversity today, other than the fact it was a really fun issue, I read all of Marvel's lines with The Rock's voice

[Handsome men don't lose fights]

Pffft. If N.Korea produced a movie about a spy slitting Obama's throat with the edge of a rusty zipper, the G.O.P. would start screaming for an international release.

I'm gonna keep it simple

The Interview was a bad idea from jump. Just because it's an Asian dictator, does not mean making a movie about killing a living head of state is a smart idea, nevermind marketing it to the masses.

Were the hacks illegal? Yeah. Was North Korea wrong for promoting the hacks? Yeah. Should anyone be surprised by the hacks? Hell no. Does it set a bad precedence? Maybe?

But do I feel bad for Sony? Let's keep it real, if a notable country with funds made a comedy about 9/11 or killing Obama while he's in office, America would have gotten that movie dismantled one way or another.

The movie was a dumb idea, and like hell am I going to side with it or Sony.

Thunderworld was freakin awesome. SO awesome.

[Froggy]

Thunderworld was freakin awesome. SO awesome.

Dude, I was cheering SOOOOOO hard throughout the whole issue. All the Sivanananigans, omniscient narrator, Captain Marvel/Billy, everything man. I'm kinda waffling on getting the guidebook, but I probably will anyways. Grant Morrison is great at shifting tones and I would love to see this as a series somehow. Can't wait for the next world!

One last thing.

Too many think there is no accountability in comedy; that there are no consequences because "hey, it's (supposed to be) funny".

These same people tend to be the most distraught when someone shows them how untrue that is.

The wider the audience, the higher the risk.

Holee crap this Sony things gets more bizarre and crazy by the week!!

I'm gonna keep it simple on this next topic.

Wait, does he die in the movie?

Ohhhh, they really did. Found this over at gawker.



That is hilarious. But yeah, they went too far. hahahhahaha, how'd they think they were gonna get away with that? They were just begging for some kind reprisal.

He's playing Deadshot, so I don't see him playing someone else within the same universe. Unless it's a voice over thing like Rocket or Groot...and really not even then.
