While these character reshuffles are taking center stage, the broader context involves a struggling comic book industry. Grade declines, store closures, and the waning popularity of traditional superhero comics indicate a transformation rather than a continuation of past success.

While threats are never acceptable, the media's sensationalism suggests a climate of overstated panic rather than grounded fact.
