Fawcett rocking progressive representation before SJW's were a thing. 👆

That is some stereotype.

It was a different time.

White kids being drawn like moma's boys wasn't offensive then.

I know, not mad. I was just saying. Just like when I see very old Disney/WB cartoons with racist tones, I don’t necessarily cares because that was what was accepted back then.

If it was now, then I’ll have a problem.

😆

Looks like a regular black face to me. 🐵

Why did they drop Supermans redesigned costume anyways?

Thought dropping the underwear wasn't such a bad move.

iirc it was Bendis. He wanted the trunks back. I wasn't a huge fan of the Rebirth costume myself, but it wasn't terrible.

While it is very tempting to blame everything on Bendis... it's sort of an unwritten rule in both Marvel & DC that every major character needs to go back to his or hers classic look/outfit, sooner or later.

I don't disagree, Superman was always going to go back to the trunks eventually. I just could have sworn I saw someone post something about it. And, to be fair, he hadn't had the rebirth suit that long either.

Even Iron Man - who changes suits more often than any other hero - has had his most current model made look like one of his classic armors.

"Muscles" (including the mandatory six pack), red and gold, mouth-slit, everything:

Then you have the likes of Spider-Man, Wolverine, Captain America and so on, and so on.

Yeah.

I do like that Iron Man armour, though I think there's too much red in the legs.

Feat-wise, it's helluva impressive, too.

Although that recent newtons/graphene page was a little facepalm worthy. But perhaps there was some context to it.

Calculations have never been comicmakers' strongest side, but I don't see how damaging graphene would be problematic, given how Tony punched through Cardiac's adamantium-vibranium dome.

Even if we assume that alloy was of lesser quality, it should still be vastly superior to any RL materials.

lol I saw that. You would think comic writers are capable of more of a google search than "hardest things on Earth".

Dialogue is even funnier.

Classic.
