I admire his efforts to help provide much needed support for our troops, as well as his continued support of my campaign.
Let's make America great again!

Sounds like Isaac Perlmutter is about to be accused of being a racist, sexist, bigot.

Doesn't make up for this video where Stan Lee himself is sitting next to Hillary Clinton laughing it up as she brags about her plans about circumventing the Freedom of Information Act by avoiding email that FOIA can subpoena. Fast forward to 3:30.

Does this mean we'll see a Donal Trump themed comic book hero, in the near future? 'cause honestly... that'd be both amazing and hilarious.

Yet, Marvel comics are an SJW infected shitfest at the moment.

Same reason I opened the comments. Surprising move coming from Marvel.

i haven't been into that universe since the cap run in 2004 (other than the movies). has it really gotten bad?

Apparently, yeah. I'm a little out of the loop, as I was unemployed for a while, and comics are f'ing expensive now, but it seems pretty ridiculous. I do know that Iceman is now randomly gay, and it was pretty clunky and hamfisted (Extraordinary X-Men is pretty solid, otherwise). The new Ant-Man is also gay, as well as Pakistani (I think), and it was SUPER fucking hamfisted. It's all a wee bit silly, and honestly, it's going to cut into what I pick up every week.
I swear to christ, Marvel, do not fuck with Daredevil.

It's an overstatement to say that all the problems at Marvel are because of SJWs writers, because even the writing on the titles have nothing to do with any SJW stuff is just extremely sub-par. For the better part of two years now Peter Parker has owned a huge tech company and has had no romantic interests, with the exception of Silk which was randomly ended, since coming back from being possessed by the mind of Doc Ock. The writers have simply no idea what to do with him because they don't understand why people relate to Peter Parker. Right now Spider-Gwen is the only spider-title that's doing anything right (Gwen is being chased by the police and is feeling constant guild over the death of Peter Parker).
And it really doesn't help that they've barely had any titles last long enough to hit #50 before rebooting everything. They did it in 2012 with Marvel NOW and they just did it again with Secret Wars (which promised to be Earth-shattering, but in reality all it did was bring Samuel L Jackson Nick Fury and Miles Morales Spider-man to Earth-616).

Haha, yeah, it's pretty bad. Instead of creating new characters, the existing characters are being recast to conform to trangenderdentitymultiracialculture nonsense.
I mean, ok, I get it, you want to appeal to a new audience, and indeed comic characters have been reinvented many, many, times. But this is more fundamental and reflects an underlying jealousy more than an idea of "inclusiveness".

Organizations are full of people with various ideals.
1st and foremost this man's a business man not an ideologue. If SJWism is selling comics then he'll do it. I don't blame him, his first job is to make money. Even Warren Buffet evades taxes for his stock holders while begging the government to stop him.

I founded a sub to track it at /r/WerthamInAction. I also created its counterpart here at /v/WerthamInAction, but haven't gotten it running yet.
