Comic book artist quits DC comics over changes to Superman: 'I’m tired of them ruining these characters
The Blaze ^ | 10-21-21 | Carlos Garcia

A comic book colorist says he is fed up with the left turn at DC Comics and he is quitting over the latest left-wing change to the Superman character.

Gabe Eltaeb made the comments during a guest appearance on a YouTube show hosted by Cyberfrog creator Ethan Van Sciver.

"What really pissed me off was saying truth, justice, and a better world. F*** that it was Truth, Justice, and the American way," said Eltaeb.

He was referring to the announcement from the publisher of Superman comics that they would be dropping "the American way" from the character's motto for the much far less nationalistic, "a better world."

Eltaeb said that he was leaving DC Comics when his contract was up because he was upset with how the company is ruining the legacy of their characters.

"I'm finishing out my contract with DC. I'm tired of this s***, I'm tired of them ruining these characters; they don't have a right to do this," he continued.

A rather foul mouthed opus, but DC deserves it.

I can’t imagine there is much of a market for any of this?

They do have a right to do it but they and marvel both have little respect for their character’s legacy

The left saps the joy out of everything. Like a flat Coke on a hot day. A mug of tepid coffee on a cold morning. Luke-warm chicken soup with no chicken.

The comic book industry is pushing everything anti-American now.
No one that loves comics gets into the business of drawing homosexual porn.

Nobody buys it - DC Comics is now a left-wing organization subsidized by movie revenues, not a profit-making comic book company.

Nope, they’re not even buying many of these new “woke” comics. The comic book stores are closing in droves because of this stuff, because nobody is buying anything but reissues of classic comics or Japanese manga.

Movies ruined all characters both Marvel and DC. Once the secret identify was disclosed it turned to crap.

It's hard to beat a grateful immigrant's American patriotism. They get it.
