While the Marvel-Disney monster has been ruling the box office, Marvel
Comics sales have been having serious issues. One obvious factor was trying
to force political correctness on readers by replacing Peter Parker, Iron
Man, etc. with ridiculously politically correct "diverse" versions.
In a revelation that would surprise no one, comic book readers were not interested in a Muslim Ms. Marvel, a Latino Spider-Man who isn't Peter
Parker or the Angela Davis version of Iron Man.
"The Marvel-Disney Kremlin will be sticking with Muslim Marvel and Biracial Spider-Man and Angela Davis Iron Woman and Korean Hulk and Transgender Punisher. But they'll also be pairing the garbage PC characters everyone
hates with the characters readers actually buy and enjoy. Want to read them? You'll have to eat your politically correct spinach. Pairing unpopular characters to make them popular has never worked before. But when leftists
take over a company, they put PC ahead of profits."
