Oh, so that's why Silver Surfer is a woman. I know it's Shalla-Bal but the point still stands. Simply using her as a narrative tool for Johnny whom Marvel and Disney have been trying so hard to paint as the opposite of “womanizer” attitude he’s had for years now?

Remember when /tv/ was preemptively OUTRAGED that they were totally going to turn Johnny gay? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

How can adult men care this much about capeslop? It boggles the mind. At least marlel fans just genuinely like it in earnest, this board pretends to be above it and always yaps about how shit it is but will never, ever stop talking about it.

Disney considers Johnny Storm's comic personality to be at odds with their brand image so they strong armed Feige into making him a golly gee shucks nice guy

Yet he still comes across a helpless romantic with Shalla Bal? I don't know it seems like they only switched Norrin with her in order to develop this hoakey romance. Reminds me of what happened in Eternals where it was even more peculiar. Making Sprite a girl who has a crush on Ikaris but can't develop a romantic bond because she had the permanent appearance of a child. What were the writers thinking?
