The Four Color Media Monitor

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.


DC's Legends TV show is turning SJW

If the Legends of Tomorrow series on TV hadn't turned as political as Supergirl's TV show has been almost since the start, it certainly is now. Specifically, the 3rd season features a character based on one that drew from the casts of Captain Marvel in yesteryear, here retooled to serve a most notorious agenda, as this fluff-coated column in the Greenwood Democrat tells at the bottom of the list:
“Legends” will add a character named Zari Adrianna Tomaz (Tala Ashe) when Season 3 premieres Oct. 10, a Muslim-American “grey hat” hacker from 2030. She’s better known to comics fans as the superheroine Isis — although I’ll bet good money that code name won’t be used, due to current events in the Mideast. “Adrianna Tomaz” is an homage to “Andrea Thomas,” the secret identity of the character on the live-action “Isis” that aired on Saturday mornings in the 1970s.
So much like Paul Levitz tried doing with Dr. Fate in the New52 farce a few years ago, now a TV show based on some of DC's output is doing the same, foisting more of this tired whitewashing of the Religion of Peace upon the audience. Sure, the rise of the Islamic State of Iraq & Syria may have taken away a lot of the appeal of the ancient Egyptian deity name Isis, but if that won't be used in this TV show's season, why do they insist on ascribing the very belief system the terrorist organization now operating in the middle east goes by - and is part of their acronym - to an older character? It's pure hypocrisy at its worst.

With this news, it's become pretty apparent the TV adaptations of DC products have all been hijacked in some way or other to serve a political agenda. Another reason why it's better to change the channel. Maybe they should rename the series "Legends of Tomorrow's SJWs" instead, because that's what it's shaping down to be.
