Election Shenanigans
Apparently, Reed Richards (shown above at campaign stop) is running for President, with his campaign managed by Johnny Storm.
Meanwhile, he's being opposed by Victor Von Doom's campaign. He's running, he's managing, he's doing everything...for he is DOOM!
I'm still voting Obama.

Dr. Doom...Only Not So Much
Lisa Fortuner hits the nail on the proverbial head with her dissection of the Dr. Doom tirade at Ms. Marvel. She's right that the issue is much more about getting the character wrong than about the misogynist angle. Doom is written to spew offensive language to cement that he's an asshole. But the manner of his speech is off for the character (which, of course, can open it all back up to just being offensive/misogynist for the sake of being so).
I'd type more of my own outlook on the whole thing, but I'm travelling and I'm tired.
