I write comments. On occasion.
It's often class-based and regional (both of which can easily be mistaken for race). All of the well-done folks I know personally are white.
(To be fair, Severin later drew it from Hydra's perspective a mere few issues later, though). Dunno when limb → "myth appropriate head"
The "tentacles reaching out over the world" was actually a S.H.I.E.L.D. deal originally, *describing* Hydra:
Lotta folks talkin' Nazis, but the original Hydra was a pretty arbitrary "terrorist organization" to start with. →
They did this pose (I prefer Severin, below, to Kirby, above--don't tell nobody) to emphasize the "limb" bit
→ They didn't have that *motto*. Their first one, of course, doesn't even match with "hydra":
Aight, folks: That logo's from much later iterations of Hydra. Earliest appearances (Strange Tales 135-8) not only didn't have this logo →
→ references the cult 1980 Bill Lustig/Joe Spinell movie of the same name, but rather Shandi Sinnamon track "He's a Dream". Thank you.
→ (something that the rest of the crew apparently found rather peculiar). It's set not to the Michael Sembello song "Maniac", which oddly →

Hi, I'd just like to comment as someone who recently watched Flashdance. Clearly this video references the first dance that Alex performs →
Just what do you have against the crouching lady holding the cat's leash??
And if you utterly *loathe* Guardians, it may well be your favorite television show of all time! (Source: me)
Who literally asks for "a toyota"? "I just want a car of this make. I don't care about the model, but it HAS to be this make"
Well. They've now *retconned* him into the worst. Boring.
Meanwhile, comic Thanos? Not the worst.
Ah, what these movies did to the character of Gamora...them and Bendis. BENDIS, YOU FUCKER....
What caused you to fill your drawers, exactly?
Because Brian Michael Bendis.
Brian Michael Bendis.
Hades isn't in hell, though, literally speaking...
"analogous" means there is a common thread in usage in this context, not a direct relationship saying they apply to the same regions, etc.
"Analogous" doesn't imply a direct relationship...
It is more specific for sure, but it also has a lot of history to it, and plenty of it not good.
The word stopped being used for people, and now we're saying we stopped using it for people before because we don't use it for people now...
This is fascinating, as that was a later change in usage, but it's now being used to retroactively explain itself...
Yep--few things are *inherently* racist. It's for historical reasons, sounds weird now because the word has fallen out of favour in general.
