Will some right wing idiot start to post out of context stuff from this forum in an arrempt to get him removed.

It really is not about whether the company knows of anything controversial, it isn’t about whether those things are controversial. It is about whether some idiot drags something up, uses it to attack, & the company rolls over & caves without even attempting to stand by their employee/freelancer.

We live in very dangerous times where what people say now impacts what people are allowed to do, regardless of context. Unless you are the President or one of his friends.

Better not give anyone stupid ideas...

It would really be sad if this project didn't happen because of quotes taken out of context in order to "prove" that John Byrne is a bad man. 

Steve Coates: "...and perhaps two young Jewish white guys would not dare to make their perfect warrior a blonde haired, blue eyed, caucasian male?"

If you're referring to Captain America, the US Army of that period would not have countenanced any other ethnicity for its propaganda superhero, so Simon & Kirby reflected that. I recently watched a wartime information film aimed at US troops stationed in the UK, in which Burgess Meredith very lightly touched upon the fact this country did not have racial segregation (at least, not overtly) and visitors from the South would have to adjust accordingly.

I was not referring to the real US Army, but to the fictitious US Army as shown in the comic. Suspension of disbelief, etc.

I agree with Mr Byrne about setting up a separate thread, although I doubt I have any more to say on this topic.
