Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.
The Japan News wrote about the Kyoto International Manga Museum's current exhibition, which traces the history of the art form's templates back as early as the 17th century Edo period.

I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.

Hi Avi,
Don't know if you've seen it. But in yesterday's "Angela: Queen of Hell" I believe they did something where they made Thor's grandfather, Bor a villain, who said a bunch of things against feminism and social justice which was redacted in the dialogue as well as an "unsolicited opinion of Israel." This seems odd since SJWs tend to be Israel-haters, but I'm sure the writer, Bennett wants to make them seem like the good guys, unless I read it wrong. I only skimmed the issue. But Marvel clearly has no regard for Israel as evident in who they hire.
I saw that a few places. What even happened and what was it about? Why would Bor care about Israel?
Thanks for the note. I'll try to do some research on the Angela book.
