How did the vietnam war end the way it did when there’s roughly a million heroes in New York alone
Gonna take this opportunity to drop a criminally underrated gem: Marshal Law. Easily the best ‘deconstructing the superhero genre’ comic ever written imho
Is he supposed to look like a Nazi in a gimp suit
I mean he is a cop
I’m guessing yes
The superheroes are all woke and unamerican. Punching Hitler and the like, it’s disgraceful.
How you have a guy called captain america and he disagrees with your ideals damn near most of the time
They wear their underwear on top of their pants. If you do that, you’ve already lost once you go outside in the morning.
Maybe they just didn’t feel like laundry today
What I do like about Marvel is they did deploy their heroes in WW2. Captain America, Bucky and the Invaders (Namor, Human Torch, Toro, Spitfire, Union Jack etc).
Just none of these guys are exceptionally powerful. Maybe Namor but he got more powerful as he aged. So they could be the tip of the spear but not win the war instantly.
The Human Torch did burn Hitler alive though at the end of the war instead of what happened IRL.
Plus the Nazis had their own supes. Master Man, Warrior Woman, Iron Cross etc. uhh Thor that one time Hitler tricked him into trying to kill Stalin.
The soviet union even had a WW2 “Red Guardian” their Captain America.
There was a neat comic a decade or so ago about “The Crazy S.U.E.S.” (Special unit enhanced soldiers) which was about all the minor WW2 marvel superheroes (who in real life had comics during WW2) and the gimmick was the IRL comics were the in universe propaganda in WW2 and when the stopped getting published IRL that was because the supe had been killed fighting Nazis in universe.
Most if these guys had real minor powers or no powers just Watchmen style.
DC hitler had spear of destiny to keep the superheroes from entering Germany lol
The problem I had with that is surely there’s still something Superman can do to help the war effort (in universes where he was around). That SMBC comic where he’s a transitional source of renewable energy by cranking an electromagnet, or IDK helping a shipyard pump out aircraft carriers etc
Because they ain’t on my level
Thats why they stick to beating a bunch of poor folks on the streets. Once they play with us big boys it don’t end too well for em.
They wouldnt even last a day in my world. Their most popular hero’s nemesis is a fucking incel clown and that guy has a body count in the thousands lmao. In the real world that mf would be 6 feet under even in the dumbest timeline.
If we count the X-men then half of them are busy fighting the us government.
They’re too busy beating up impoverished people in alleys
I feel like superman should be able to spare five minutes to clear out the Ho Chi Minh trail
It’s gyros. There are a million gyros in New York
If spiderman ate Greek street food would that be cannibalism (Both because of the gyros, and the spiders in the meat)
Because they’re all Homelander
Have you not come across Watchmen?
Omg I love rorschach too bad the author went woke
