A Pulitzer Prize-winning nation security reporter explains why Magneto was right

This is cool, but even as a kid who nerded out over comics so hard in the 80s and 90s, it feels kinda uncomfortable to me when we look at everything through the refracted lens of comic books and comic book characters?

Plus, I’ve tried to get back into comics and honestly, the form can be super limiting, especially for mainstream characters who live on forever and have their story re-told over and over… how many reboots of Spider-Man and Batman and Superman do we need?

This might come across as being a debbie downer, and I’m sorry about that, but it’s hard for me to take over-analysis of comics seriously, especially mainstream stuff like the X-Men. :confused:
