That was such a good story to include in this. You can see why they wanted something that was about women and the story itself is about something that people see as 'typical women stuff'.

But it blends modern speech patterns with something that feels fairy-tale like.

Oh! I actually really liked this 'continuation'.

"...and after everything we did for this hateful community."

Whelp, that is everything you need to know.

Who was my first Black superhero?

I want to say Storm from the X-Men. We had such reverence for her in my household. But I think Static Shock was the first one I actually liked. And this was through the cartoon. Ahh I can still hear the theme song now.

*facepalm* I thought this part was also originally in the comic. The typesetting is to blame 😅.

Good to see that they were also struggling with the portrayal of Bubba.

Fascinating.

Funny to see Eleanor Roosevelt name her. The more I learn about her, the more I end up admiring her. Fascinating woman. She truly deserves to be reminded as herself first instead of 'wife of'.

This kind of storytelling is very familiar and somewhere in my brain is lighting up. I sort of remember reading about a 'landloper' walking through the countryside and, tried to steal something? Got kicked out? He had a 'knapzak', sack of stuff hanging off a stick, and just wandered everywhere.

This is gonna bug me.

"Heh! -what have we here? Some new kind of animal?"

Yeah, the doctor must die. Just with one sentence you just know what kind of man he is. I do admire the creator for accomplishing that.

"Dr. Blut Sangro"

Blut is German for blood right? What does Sangro mean?

...

Apparently also blood in Spanish 🤣

Zero fucks were given and I totally get it.
