Past inventions of Jews includes superheroes

Israel Hayom listed several concepts first invented by Jews in past history, including Marvel superheroes:
Stan Lee, a Jewish comic book writer, co-created some of the most iconic superheroes in modern culture. Characters like Spider-Man, Iron Man, and the X-Men have transcended comic books, becoming cultural phenomena. Lee's narratives often reflected his own experiences and Jewish identity.

For example, the X-Men, representing marginalized groups, echo the struggles faced by the Jewish community throughout history. The Hulk was based on a 16th-century Jewish legend, the Golem of Prague. Lee's work not only entertained but also provided a lens through which social issues could be explored.
Well the sad part is that ever since, far-left ideologues who took over the publication company have destroyed whatever positive values could've been offered, after the turn of the century. Even before that in the 1990s, things were starting to deteriorate. And it seems like nobody wanted to take any of the proper steps that could've been made to improving Marvel and DC artistically. Instead, they got sold to conglomerates. That's what went wrong, and why even Jewish identity no longer works within the current narrative in publication. Nor do social issues come across convincingly.

It was recently reported by Fandom Pulse that Disney might be closing down the Marvel publishing arm, since it's only losing money due to all the woke directions they won't admit led to the dire state of sales they now have. If Marvel ends as a comic publisher, DC may follow suit, and then, at least there'll be some relief that famous creations won't have to endure such horrible abuse by uncaring writers and editors anymore.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • 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.
