The funny thing about the seeming 'contradiction' at the heart of Morrison's work--that of the American Military and The Bomb they brought haunting them vs those very same ppl bringing em 'Superman'--is that it's no contradiction at all. It's just a more potent and insidious bomb--a memetic bomb.
A shiny, primary-colored humanized bomb that can be far more effective and seductive as a piece of American propaganda. An imperial projection of American Power that can sway far more readily. A figure of empire that at once makes them feel good and sells that vision to all subjects of empire. I'll see folks say shit like 'Ohhh if Steve just became Nomad again it'll be...' or whatever to 'deproblematize' this stuff. So they can feel good. It just feels delusional. All of this stuff is this. There's no running from that, changing that, or avoiding that. It is their inextricable nature. It's why ultimately their career ends up at the brainrotten culmination of shit like 'What if Obama was Superman?' You legit got Obamaman, think about how deranged that is. But it also makes sense, no? It's ultimately the same core fantasy--that (American) Absolute Power Can Be Absolutely Good. For all that it is fucked and deranged, is it really that distant from, say, Cooke's conclusion in New Frontier which everybody falls over to worship, entirely dedicated to Kennedy? It's merely just an extension of that. All of this stuff just is this--imperial power fantasies of empire. Insidious. It's why when ppl say shit like 'anti-fascist superheroes' or 'revolutionary superheroes' or whatever, it feels a bit like saying 'anti-fascist Top Gun' 'anti-fascist Joe Rogan'. I can't take nonsense like that seriously. Just a bunch of delusional nonsense to me.

Imagine watching modern superhero stuff and think "damn, this is not lefty enough".

>Hey, Bibi! Eyes up here.

It isn't lefty enough.

There is no left or right, there is only anti-semitic and pro-semitic

Nonsensical gobbledygook. Sounds AI-written

He took this take from Alan Moore that claimed that all original superheroes were secretly fascist
