    I'm guessing they're hoping they'll pull in readers by marketing them in a similar way to the movies they share titles with. Especially if it's a #1 that seems approachable to someone who's never read comics.

    It's lightly criticizes and gleefully satires the real world's patriarchal structure, so some people (the vast majority being right-leaning men) are saying it's anti men and supports misandry. It definitely isn't and doesn't though.

    It's truly got some of the worst cgi I've seen in a big budget movie in a long time. The babies in the beginning looked cursed, the time travel sequences looked like they were made up of wax figures, Batman's movements sometimes looked like they came from a late 00s video game cutscene, Zod's face looked like a bad deepfake most of the time and all the cameos at the climax were so badly executed the cgi was more noticable to me than the cameos themselves.

    I'm on a much smaller scale and only oversee two mailrooms but when my dept head was looking for a place to use as storage and suggested one afternoon to use the "empty space" in the mailroom, I had to gently explain to him that the empty space was where the hundreds of boxes that we get every morning go.

    I've actually found out that there's some decent historical evidence that supports the fact that a man named Jesus, from Nazareth, who was an outspoken critic of Roman rule, was a real guy with a sizable following in the first decade of the CE. Oh, and he probably was crucified by the Romans for talking so much shit about them.

    But all the miracles and coming back to life stuff is complete bunk.

    I realized this when playing a game of "Never Have I Ever" the other day. Someone used never having gone to Africa as an answer and noticed I didn't put a finger down so asked where'd I gone.

    When I answered with Uganda when I was 17, they asked why.

    I jokingly said "oh, back then I loved Jesus and went on a mission for him".

    They laughed and asked if I hated him now.

    I almost said yes, but then realized that's not actually what atheism means. So I ended up responding, "Naw, I just don't believe that he was the son of god anymore."
