any comic, video game or "geek" related website is going to have a bunch of people fighting or defending the status quo. "social justice warriors vs neckbeards"... It's basically white privilege vs everyone else.


I am disappointed they didn't take the chance to have an asian-america primary protagonist, but hardly surprised. I guess it's more pertinent to finally show a rich white guy becoming a superhero.
