Marvel, even pre-Internet, wisely headed off getting a ton of letters from pedants like me yelling, “He’s not Frankenstein!!”
We recently learned, though, that all the ‘Monster’s’ [named by a patriarchal cisnorm scientist, of course] parts were from the corpses of women of color and that thus [insert preferred pronoun] is better than all the other monsters and people and pretty much everyone. Proof of that is that the ‘Monster’ (because all strong women are ‘monsters’ to some people) is drawn to look much like Captain Marvel is drawn now.
Here, for instance, Dracula tries to mansplain why [insert preferred pronoun] shouldn’t remove his coffin lid in the daytime, and Frankenstein’s Better is all, “Are you talking to me? Because you better not be talking to me!”
Happy Friday, everyone! Watch something stupid this weekend.
