Why do people see cops as a bad thing

Probably all the innocent people they keep murdering without consequence.

that one thing old marvel knew to do well be subtle about it



Jack Kirby was a bad motherf**ker.
Quote"...Jack took a call. A voice on the other end said, 'There are three of us down here in the lobby. We want to see the guy who does this disgusting comic book and show him what real Nazis would do to his Captain America'. To the horror of others in the office, Kirby rolled up his sleeves and headed downstairs. The callers, however, were gone by the time he arrived."

True but instead of looking at the bad ones look at all the cops that arnt killing people. We tend to focus on the negatives even if that's the minority. Think about all the black people that weren't shot that day instead of the one that was. Their are asshole cops but their are also good honest ones to.

What the actual f**k is this post? :-X

The whole point of all of this is that the organization is fundamentally flawed. Sure, there may be some "good cops" but if the organization doesn't do anything to actually stop the bad ones, and the "good" ones don't do anything to stop the bad ones, then the whole organization is f**ked and needs total reform. Shootings like these keep happening, and will keep happening, and it is absolutely f**king disgusting.

You're asking people to think about the "Black people that weren't shot that day" like that is going to fix anything. What are you saying? That they should just go about their business and be thankful that this time it was their father or mother or brother or sister or husband or wife or friend that got shot, rather than themselves? Ignoring a problem doesn't make the problem go away. And those people that died... they are dead. Their lives were taken from them. That isn't something to just look at lightly and brush off.

So nah, I'm not just going to ignore deep-rooted issues that are literally costing people their lives.

Won't somebody think of cops that don't murder people??


Corporal Hicks

This isn't the place for that real-world discussion. The point is Alien and Marvel have always been political and provide social commentary, regardless of whether or not you saw it without it being pointed out to you.

Kradan

I agree with this man ^^^

Drukathi

The best thing to do here is to delete the last ~10 pages. Otherwise, this conversation will go in a circle.

Corporal Hicks

It's done with now. Further attempts will be deleted.

EJA

What sort of new storylines would we like to see explored in Marvel's new Alien and Predator material?

Maybe when people think about "good, old Marvel" Captain America fighting Hitler isn't the first thing that comes to their minds ?

That doesn't mean it didn't exist. Just like how the politics that were there in the movies these people watched as kids always existed, even if they didn't pick up on it.

Also, who is that Bucky guy is ? Marvel's version of Robin ?

Bucky, in his original inception, was a child soldier (gee, nothing political about that!) who is an ace sniper working alongside Cap during WWII. He eventually gets killed, and stays that way for decades, until the 2000s when Brubaker brought him back as The Winter Soldier to tell another incredibly political story.

Nothing wrong with Marvel being anti-Hitler, or anti-Nazi.  I think we can agree on that.

Just caught up to reading Hicks's post.  Ok stepping off the political bandwagon.

Really looking forward to the first Marvel series one way of another.

EJA

So are there any new rumors regarding Marvel's new Alien and Predator series??

Also, I'm wondering why Marvel are promoting only Aliens via their variant covers, and not Predator?
