The part that fears change, the part that has resisted “other” for so long, treated women and POC characters so badly, they’re terrified allowing anyone else a voice will lead to them being treated the same way. I think they know a part of their market. And most of us aren’t very happy at the moment. But my friends have friends who have friends. But I have a lot of friends who are moving in the same direction, if not already so disgusted as to be indifferent to any new Marvel Comics news. Do my individual purchases mean anything to the Marvel Juggernaut? Nope, and I’m not so naive as to think they might.
Willow Wilson and Black Bolt by Saladin Ahmed. I’m down to two non– Star Wars Marvel books on my regular pull: Ms. They can go ahead and keep that pattern up if they like. It seems, at the moment, that Marvel is using female and non-white characters, some of whom have been around almost as long as Cap and Iron Man and Loki, to put out the PR fires that seem to plague them every other day, and then pointing at low single-issue, pre-order sale numbers and saying, “Well, we tried” and “you should be happy with what you got” before flouncing back to the world of well-groomed facial hair and blonde coiffure. Is it intentional? I’d like to think not but with all the recent announcements, it’s hard to believe otherwise. Marvel has remade (some of) its white male characters but it has made no effort to do so with it’s female or POC characters. I mean, maybe if you inflated Mackie and poured him into spandex, but that’s never what the film version of Falcon has been about, is it? Look anything like Anthony Mackie? Not so much. That Marvel may see their way clear to boost the more inclusive universe they claim will be a part of the next phase of films (Sam Wilson has, for example, canonically carried the mantle of Captain America-though so has Bucky Barnes) but have, at their comics division, so recently torn to hell.īecause this is Zazie Beetz in costume for Deadpool 2:Īnd this is a preview of the titular mercenary in print:Īnd, come to think of it, does this Falcon: So, you can see why I thought Domino, especially as penned by beloved author Gail Simone ( Birds of Prey), might continue the adaptive look-alike trend.

In Tim Miller’s 2016 film, on the other hand, the beloved actor went the extra mile to redeem himself and won everyone over. Ryan Reynolds failed to bring the character of Deadpool to life in 2006’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine, but to his credit, the notorious “merc with a mouth” literally had it sewn shut.

We all want Marvel to get working on a Domino solo movie and here’s why.ĭeadpool 2 offers so much potential for solo movie ventures, but the character we really want Marvel to explore further is Domino.
