Now that the debate about Hydra Cap and Secret Empire has raged on a bit, a trend has emerged. Those who defend it claim that characters have always changed and that this is nothing new. But do comic book characters really change in that way? Join me to go beyond generalities and straw-man arguments to dig down to the specifics of the matter. Don't forget to like and subscribe. I post videos each midweek and weekend that delve deeper into Superheroes through cultural and literary study.
