(comment on an article about the death of Stan Lee)
RIP Master Lee!
You were the last check valve holding back the full flood of SJW nonsense from entering Marvel. I’ve ended all my Marvel subscriptions today, and as far as this life long Marvel fan is concerned, Marvel died with you sir! 11/12/18
(Stan himself, meanwhile, was famously pro-tolerance and anti-bigotry)

Did he really not notice the least little bit that X-Men was an allegory for the Civil Rights Movement of the 60s? Back when practically every other major media outlet was merely toning down their open racism, but never quite advocating for letting the "darkies" be treated as human beings? And here comes the team of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby to flat out say "yeah, this racism and division is stupid, let's try working together . . . or else it will just get worse."
"Black Panther": and not just the most recent addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe - with the traditional cameo - but the character he helped create with the Great God Jack Kirby.
In 1966.
Not as lifelong as what True Believers know: in "Fantastic Four" No. 52, I suspect: and the creations of His Excelsior!ness Stan Lee inspiring more Purveyors Of Wonder will live on when you've been forgotten by Uatu.
Exactly what Marvel comics did this idiot subscribe to?
I'm guessing anything with busty women in tight spandex posing heroically... and Deadpool.
Anything else might habe clued him in...if he read the words.
Being out of the loop due to my stay in the hospital, I only learned of Stan Lee's death on Christmas Eve.
By the way, does anyone know how Vox Dunning-Kruger's super-designated-hero project is going? I feel morbidly curious about just how much fail it is. Although, from what I've heard about his other works, Teddy does not even manage to be hilariously bad, just boring-.
@K:
Marvel Swimsuit Specials ?
(Except that it was cancelled in 1995...)
PPS:
I just discovered that X-Men and Spiderman are in my phone's dictionary.
Anyone wants to join the FSTDT Superhero Team?
I already have Skidie the cyborg synth, Lauge "the slightly-weird ex-army guy who believes all problems are solvable through the application of enough weapons and explosives" and myself as the genius beastmaster.

This idiot is for Marvel what conservatives fanboys are for Star Trek and Star Wars: for some reason, despite their intense fandom and consuption of the thing they profess to love so much, yet failed to notice the constant progressive messages in the Marvel comics and SW and ST movies and TV shows. It takes a special type of stupidity to be this clueless about the thing they are supposed fan for. Really, some people!
You don't need to be stupid to be a conservatiye but it.... nah, you really need to be stupid!
Mick Williams with Rod Serling.
JSprunk with Stan Lee.
What up with these weirdos?

OOH! I'll be "The Amazing Spukicat"!....Like Shadowcat only instead of walking through stuff, I am actually cat-like and I have an ATOMIC FLAMETHROWING VAGINA!

@AsimovLives
It's like Paul Ryan being a Rage Against The Machine fan or guys who are supposedly Pink Floyd and/or Roger Waters fans who get mad at the political content of Water's The Wall shows.
Somewhere in the Great Beyond, JSprunk, Stan Lee is pointing at you and laughing.

So, it was kinda like the song The Trees by Rush? I thought that song HAD to be an allegory for something, for the longest time....but then I read something where Neil Peart said it was just a funny story about trees that acted like people, or something to that effect. lol
@Thanos6
That, and after coming up with the idea that there would be a bunch of people running around with super powers that came with a common source, thought about how things usually worked out when there was a subset of the human population that was different.
And, of course, figured that "oh my gosh, if there really was a mutant gene, people would be scared of them." Whether opt-in groups like the hippies and the goths, born-different groups like the gays and the autistics, and visibly-different people like the disabled and the racial minorities, weirdos never have it easy. To anyone who spends time thinking about it, it would be implausible for the X Men to be anything but a discriminated minority.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
