@oldgeekadventurer: Replying to @sanzentaru The Blue Marvel sucks. It’s an objective fact. #marvel #marvelcomics #bluemarvel #thebluemarvel #superman #theavengers #kevingrevioux #underworld
I hate the concept of retcons in general. characters like blue marvel and sentry are "living retcons" so I hate both on principle alone. wolverine comes perilously close, too

I like the idea with blue marvel, but the execution and how underutilized he is makes him a very shallow and poorly written character. even the other heroes interaction with him feel weird. they talk to him like they've never talked to a black man from the 50s before

I agree one hundred percent with you. The Blue Marvel needs to be completely rewritten. Question how would you rewrite the character?

It was mostly due to the Idea that during the time frame, People would be in fear of a Super Strong Black man and view him as a Threat not a Hero. Plus his wife a Spy for The government also.

now that you brought his story again I'm wondering how did people in universe legit forget him? For the Sentry it's explained. But like nothing of the Blue Marvel stays around?

Just crazy and it was written by a brother that attended an HBCU.

MCU could but won't do something rad and give Ryan Coogler a chance with reworking the character for the current generation

What The Hick Films :
I don't think the idea was "who cares you'd win the race war" the idea was more "i don't wanna start a race war". there's no winners in a war of any kind. the dilemma of "do i step down to not cause a race war?" is more interesting than just "well id win it so who gaf?"

Defenders Beyond and The Ultimates is what made me a die hard fan of blue marvel, Al Ewing in my eyes handles the character excellently

create a character powerful enough to do something - but contrive reason for them to do nothing- it's my same beef with Icon. I cant stand it

Mike Davenport :
My only beef with Blue Marvel is the same I have with Sentry. He make the rest of the Marvel heroes redundant. At least Sentry comes with a typical Marvel dysfunctionality of being his own villain.

I also hate these black superheros set in the past always stepping down or otherwise doing nothing to help black people. the answer as to why is always because they're "above politics"

That's a crazy thing like if I was about to be killed and black super man saved me I'd thank it we'd help with racist people seen something like that

because Marvel always does their Superman have something wrong with them for the blue Marvel I would have done what happened if someone took the lesson that you can't save everyone and decided to stop trying? that he utterly failed to save somebody make it JFK and it destroyed him so much that he just refused to even try because he didn't want to fail.

I wrote his profile for the Official Handbook (with input from Grevioux, who pronounced it “Greave-ee-us”). The story is rough, but I think there is potential, but it would take the right creators.

Why do people keep saying Superman and sentry are alike. Besides the costumes what makes them similar ?

good take, oddly enough you might make a good cosplay of him

Can I add the weird “wife is a sleeper agent for the government the whole time” part. He overlooks that part really really fast. HIS WIFE lied to him the entire time he knew her and he basically just doesn’t care.

Booster :
he's such a cool concept, done in the absolute worst way possible. he suffers the same ways the sentry and others do. where u just go "oh I wanna know more about this!" then after about an hour of research or reading u go "oh... man 😔"

mcp4000 :
I like the character but I get what you're saying. if marvel adapts his character to the big screen maybe a better idea would be that Kennedy was planning to make him the new Captain America and FBI and CIA created a. drug to take away his memories similar to the Winter soldier. also, the black community would hate this dude's guts.
