Nerds With Friends

There's a growing trend in comic books of publishers trying creating new superheroes or changing existing heroes to appeal to a wider audience. There's also a trend amongst comic fans of complaining about that. We take a look at how "woke culture" is influencing comic books and whether this is actually a good thing or simply virtue signaling by the folks at Marvel and DC. We also try and figure out why so many comic fans are outraged over these new books. Are they just a bunch of small minded bigots, or do they actually have a point? Well we decided to take a crack at this sensitive subject, and we're sure the internet will hear us out before they start leaving negative comments. Enjoy!
