Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer are writing the FF script. Apparently they’ve been involved for Matt Shakman was. https://deadline.com/2022/09/fantastic-four-jeff-kaplan-ian-springer-marvel-studios-1235123893/
I hate to defend them, but to be fair the character has never been in a movie or TV show before, and that's probably all those people pay attention to.
Oh OK.Not to my knowledge, no. She hasn't been used a lot. Only 3 or 4 times in the Hulk that I can recall off-hand.
Yeah, you bring up a good point.Theirs would be a hollow excuse; remember, many of the anti-black Captain America / hate Brie Larson / generally subversive types love to claim "Hollywood" knows nothing about the comic source in favor of woke-ism, yet this self-proclaimed pack of comic book experts should know who Sabra is...or use that service some identify as Google.
Nope--they cannot do that, and they do not care to. Their vision of Marvel is so intrinsically tied to their white male power / image fantasies (usually leaning on rich, weapon-covered Iron Man and Rogers version of Cap) that any character outside of said fantasy is "wrong" / a "Diversity Hire" / "not the real ___________" (see: The Critical Drinker's acidic rant against Mackie as the black Captain America) / "not true to the comics", etc. You might as well sit back and expect that kind of commentary, because it will always flood social media with every new MCU character who does not fit into that aforementioned white male power / image fantasies.
I get your point but it does depend where your window is:For a long time Marvel was meant to represent the world outside your window, and I hate to break it to those people, but when I look outside my window, I see a lot more types of people than just white guys.
Sure, but it's clearly meant as more of a general statement about trying to bring more of the real world into their comics.I get your point but it does depend where your window is:
Where I lived a year ago:
White: 90.56%
Two or more races: 3.94%
Other race: 1.57%
Black or African American: 1.39%
Asian: 1.30%
Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander: 0.77%
Native American: 0.46%
Where I live now:
White: 60.87%
Black or African American: 23.37%
Two or more races: 8.12%
Asian: 4.72%
Other race: 2.18%
Native American: 0.71%
Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander: 0.04%
I get your point but it does depend where your window is:
Fair enough, I don't want to knock the push for representation and diversity just that people may have different ideas of what that means.
Now they just need to introduce John Palestine to balance things out.
Did she join the Bat Family as the new Red Hood?
Is that really worth a spoiler tag? I mean, his comics fans always knew that.
