I don't blame him for being upset. Looks like the left-wing wokeness and anti-traditional values that has infected Marvel comics for so long has finally started to leech over into DC as well. What a shame.

God****, I'm so glad I'm not really into comics anymore. Superman is my favorite fictional character of all-time and to see him be used in such a way to push the LGBTQ wokeness agenda sickens me.

DC comics should be ashamed of themselves.

Teri Hatcher is my favorite Lois Lane, and Dean Cain was very good as Clark Kent and Superman as well.

eThneoLgrRnae
As much as I like Cain, he is probably my least favorite version of both Superman and Clark Kent.

eThneoLgrRnae
I just didn't care for that "Lois and Clark" tv series very much.

Smallville was soooooooo much better.

eThneoLgrRnae
Apparently not only are they making him bisexual, they are also talking about him fighting things like climate change and deportation of refugees lol.

Leftist woke shit ruins everything it touches... think I'm gonna throw up.

StyleTime
It's Superman's son, Jon Kent who came out as bisexual.

Not Clark Kent.

You are a shit kicker aren't you? Starting all these sexual threads for what purpose I dont know. You are either deep in the closet or repressed.

Look at you and your facts. Pfft.

Do you really think they're a match for Rightist's kneejerking and their feelings?

I am surprised people would show outrage over a comic character anyway, don't like it, don't buy it. Anyway it was already stated to be his son and not the actual Superman.

It'll be slightly interesting to see how long of a run that comic book gets though.

eThneoLgrRnae
Leftist wokeism ruined Marvel, it ruined several professional sports, then it ruined Star Wars, and now it is going to ruin DC and one of America's biggest icons in Superman.

I hate leftist wokeism more than ever now.

Dude, it is not just any comic. We are talking about friggin' Superman here. One of America's biggest icons.

It doesn't matter if it isn't actually Clark Kent. He is still going to be donning Superman's outfit.

Like I said, I don't really read comics anymore anyway but it is still disgusting to me for Superman being used in such a way.

And if it's in the comics, then you can bet eventually it's gonna start being in movies and animated films as well. I really love DC animated films especially ones about Superman but if they start putting woke shit in them then yeah, it's gonna start to really piss me off.

Robtard
So you don't have a problem with fictional interspecies sex as long as it's not between a human male and an alien male... Well, in this case half-alien male.

He works for the liberal mainstream media too, and introduced one of the first openly lesbian characters in mainstream comics decades ago. Superman sounds like one of the leftists you hate.

DC could have easily created a new character that happened to be Bi, or Trans, it's when they start fiddling with existing characters that fans go apeshit. Happened with Iceman, which is the last one I remember, although being a mutant you sort of expect them to evolve in a lot of different ways so why not sexually too.

Trying to cash in on what's trendy is what all the corporations do though, they're going to go for the people with the money... even if the people that like this change are few in number and the regular comic book buying customers just aren't as interested anymore.

Darth Thor
Iceman being all out gay and not Bi, was really weird. Never bought into that.

And of course Superman is an illegal alien lol. Always found it strange why the White Christian Right tend to be fans of his. Think it all goes back to the one line about fighting for truth and justice The American Way.

Post-Crisis continuity says the Kents lied and claimed Martha gave birth to him, when she didn't.

He has citizenship, but they lied to give it to him.

Last I checked, Superman being made an honorary citizen was pre-crisis.

So, unless retconned, with everything being canon now, Superman is technically a citizen, whereas Clark is only one through deception.

You should really read that Bible you keep going on and on about then. Cos it clearly says that at least his hair/beard was white:

Revelations 1:14: "His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow." -KJV

The "wool" reference could also refer to the texture of his hair, meaning he had afro-textured hair like a Black person smile

But Jesus went white at an early age, could be he had a vitamin B-12 deficiency.

The 40's... So he's had this motto for over 70 years. Plus many of these changes end up becoming an instrumental part of the character. Batman, for example, did not originally have a no kill rule but ow that has become an essential part of the character.

Anyways, I don't really care. Superman has been a more global hero for decades now. Just wish they thought of a better slogan than "Truth, Justice, and a Better Tomorrow" which fails to roll off the tongue in the way "the American Way" does.

eThneoLgrRnae
He is an American icon; one of our biggest.... I don't give a shit what any of you socialist/commie turds say nor do i give a shit what the now woke DC comics says.

He will always be a distinctly American superhero to me so DC comics can kiss my ass. . Not surprising that commie-lover robbie is ok with this because he thinks America is inherently evil... which is disgusting for an actual American.


Of course he b*tches and whines about how oh so horrible America is as so many other leftists do and yet refuses to move to any supposedly "better" country.

Put your money where your mouth is robbie. If America truly sucks so much then move... make sure you let the door hit you in the ass on the way out too. wink

America would be sooooooo much better off without all of these leftist crybabies in it that hate their own country.

Coming Galaxies away from Krypton to fight the American Way has to sound cringe nowadays even to the most patriotic of Americans. Was long over due to change that part of the slogan.

There is nothing "cringe" about it. Superman may be a godlike entity from Krypton, but he was raised as a humble Kansas farmer. That's sorta the core concept of the character...

jaden_2.0
In fairness, it's probably because truth and justice don't have much in common with the American way nowadays. If they wanted to keep the last part they have to change the first two to "Lies" and "Corruption" or something similar.

DeadpoolXXX
the "american way" bit was added back in the WW2 days. this was a time when wartime propaganda (sometimes racist) was commonplace in comics-
https://postimg.cc/ftDVrbWM

and since then superman has become a hero whose presence is felt across the entire dc universe. so i don't mind them revamping his slogan to something broader..but like some others have said, this new one just doesn't roll off the tongue.


as for the "new superman is bi" thing, it certainly wont sell more issues so i don't see the point of it? just comes off as a weak attempt to appease woke culture.

Nobody really reads comic books anymore, at least not like they used to, they're also having trouble generating new fans, mostly I think down to the amount of back catalog a new reader has to go through, I think that's why most of the big titles had a soft reboot of sorts over the last decade or so. Nobody buys comic books anymore, but change a characters identity, whether you go from male to female, white to black, gay to straight and you'll get people talking all over social media.

Like the Playboy thing with them having a male centerfold, it's just an attempt to cash in.

Saying that it doesn't matter where a character was raised is just plain retarded.

If Kal-El had been raised in Stalin's Soviet Union Superman would have turned out much differently. The graphic novel and animated film "Red Son" shows this. I never thought it'd be possible for me to hate Superman but while I was watching that film I actually despised him.

So yeah, the fact Clark Kent was adopted and raised in the heartland of America by such loving, kind, honest, simple folks who had American ideals and passed them onto Clark played a huge role in exactly who Superman turned-out to be.

That's one reason I love the Smallville series so damn much. Clark is the real person... that is who he is. A small town farm boy with American ideals who goes on to become the greatest hero the world has ever known.

Superman is the disguise, not Clark Kent.

You're obviously still butthurt over results of American Revolutionary War, ya limey.

He's not wrong.

Apple pie is considered to have originated in England. The Brits have a long history of making all manner of sweet and/or savory pies.

Baseball's origins lay in a game called "rounders". The similarities with rounders are there: you hit a leather wrapped ball with a metal or wood bat and you have to run around four bases to score.

Get mad about it now.

Anyways, I don't really care. Superman has been a more global hero for decades now. Just wish they thought of a better slogan than "Truth, Justice, and a Better Tomorrow" which fails to roll off the tongue in the way "the American Way" does.

IMO, "A better tomorrow" is a decent slogan for a hero that's meant to represent the best in humanity, despite being an illegal alien. As Batman has said before "He's the best person I know", or similar.

What would you have gone with?

Get mad about it now. Rounders is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams. Rounders is a striking and fielding team game that involves hitting a small, hard, leather-cased ball with a rounded end wooden, plastic, or metal bat. The players score by running around the four bases on the field.
Played in England since Tudor times, it is referenced in 1744 in the children's book A Little Pretty Pocket-Book where it was called Base-Ball. The game is popular among British and Irish school children, particularly among girls. As of 2015 it is played by seven million children in the UK. this is from Wikipedialaughing out loud

Same type of people who routinely lose their shit over nothing much at.

eg Remember the benign Gillette commercial from 2019? They utterly frothed and fumed and then frothed some more.

That's right, Coca-Cola taking an stance against Georgia enacting its shitty anti-voting laws in early 2021.

I'm sure it's just a matter of time until Pepsi does something unforgivable in their eyes and they're back on the Coke wagon.

Absolutely, you can get a razors sent to your house that are comparable or almost as good from cents on the dollar. What I do.

But Gillette's high prices isn't why you people freaked the f**k out, it was over a unoffensive commercial telling men to be the best versions of themselves...

I have a collection of double edge safety razors and blades.

Some shaving soaps, and a very nice shaving brush.

The blades are less than 50 cents each, and I get a lot of shaves out of them.

Shaving soaps, when used with a brush, last a long time.

Their moral outlook shouldn't be completely based on that, no. Otherwise they would just be brainwashed morons like Ethneo.

What if there's a Gillette product you use and it's on sale at your local Piggly Wiggly?

To the tune of Superman by John Williams:

Supergay, it's just how it sounds!
He is supergay, and knows no bounds!
He will bum you, because that's what gays do.
He has a dick of steel, and an arse of gold!

Besides, Superman wears tights/spandex and underwear on the outside. He was always gay.
