(Snowflake is non-binary and uses pronouns they/them/their.) Snowflake creates icy throwing stars, while Safespace has more defensive powers. Both use “violence to combat bullying,” according to the author.
You do know that this is a piss take right? Marvel are outright mocking the woke millennial culture which is really not a lot of people. I remember when they were goths (somewhat OK) , then emos.. Jeez, now wokies or whatever.
nah, I think they're trolling snowflake redhats enough to trigger them into starting threads on online forums.
Ummmm, I had considered that but take a look at Marvel’s website, judge for yourself. I’m still digesting it. It hasn’t gone over well with their readers. https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/introducing-the-new-new-warriors
Marvel are not tone deaf, there has been a push back againt stupid woke stuff from a number of sources. Its beyond parody and for tweens just look at the first one in your link, Screen time exposed to "experimental Internet gas"? Come on, the power rangers would have cringed at that. OK maybe not them but.. I grew up in a culture with a very advanced sense of dark humor and parody, the US is getting there but still, older US guys come from a very very basic humor level. Seinfeld and fart jokes, all this goes over the heads of most who would be in the right. I'm still somewhat in tune as I have a kid who is just mid 20s and I'm cool anyway It is a total piss take I assure you. Now if the right would push back on mall ninjas and stuff, that would be great.
