Part 5/8:
The promotional material features moments of the cast discussing their characters’ physical strength and fighting ability, with particular focus on the drag queen Sha Kool, who boasts about being able to hit a guy in the series. Critics see this as a superficial attempt to generate buzz, with little regard for coherent narrative development.
Moreover, some point out that Marvel’s leadership seems to be doubling down on these identity-driven choices despite the ongoing dissatisfaction among traditional Marvel fans, who tend to be predominantly male and invested in comic book lore. The persistent focus on inclusion, critics contend, may be a misguided effort to appeal to a broader audience without ensuring the core storytelling remains compelling.
