    I thought it was anti Indonesian politician stuff that slipped through or did they also find time to hate the Jews?

    Signs slipped into X-Men Gold #1 were from an anti-Jewish, anti-Christian Indonesian group. Also had Kitty Pryde standing next to a sign that read "Jewelry" except she was suspiciously positioned to block most of the elry.

    She isn't even blocking most of the y, but the rest is right and the artist has also been fired.

    Yes, my bad, I'm sure that given the context he was simply trying to emphasize what a jewel Shadowcat is.

    I thought the fringe, "SJW" books are some of the best written. Ms. Marvel, Squirrel Girl, and Spider-Gwen. A lot of the big books(x-men, avengers, etc.) have sucked. Ultimates and Thor have been decent though. I stopped reading a lot of Marvel during the bajillion Civil War 2 crossover books. That whole thing was a giant turd.

    I'm not really talking about that kind of stuff when I'm referring to SJW garbage. You know what you're getting in to with those books. My problem has been Marvel needlessly inserting unnecessary amounts of social commentary into EVERYTHING. To be fair, that's been their MO with alot of titles even before the Disney sale, but these days the quality of writing can't remotely compensate and most of it comes off as exceedingly hamfisted.

    At least DC has the decency to just flat out fucking suck without trying to throw in draw in readers thru pandering. I've tried to read their stuff since the last reboot and Wonder Woman is the only thing Ive been willing to pay money for, and solely because it's written by Rucka

    Social commentary kind of make sense in Captain American books though.

    The social commentary in Captain America is spot-on and makes a lot of sense for Sam Wilson.

    Doing not one but two stories in Totally Awesome Hulk about being Asian American maybe not so much.

    Not sure when it happened, but Marvel has gone back to offering free digital codes for the issue you purchase as opposed to a grab bag of "featured comics"

    People complained. They used the "we didn't know people used this" response.

    Secret Empire question:

    Spoiler: show
    I'm seeing a lot of references to a scene where Cap picks up Mjolnir and I do not remember it from the main Secret Empire book, or any of the Captain America tie ins... any idea where this takes place?

    Siege I'm guessing? Assuming Marvel themselves can remember back that far.

    I believe it was in the FCBD special issue that was released. It basically happened shortly after the heroes finally found out about Cap being Hydra when he showed up and trounced the current Avengers team ending with him lifting Mjolnir above his head showing that to the hammer at least that he is worthy.

    Speaking of new X-Books. Although I don't like the art, enjoying GenX so far. But then again I'm a Chamber fanboy.
