>>98033830Because dysfunctional marriages is a soap box trope that's easy to write.
And because the writers for Marvel are either in bad relationships, divorced, or FOREVER ALONE and so vent their frustrations about happy marriages on paper.
>>98034163It's honestly sad how many good, stable, loving relationships there are in DC compared to Marvel. Jay and Joan, Clark and Lois, Scott and Barda, etc.
Even Bats is engaged now.
But you look at Marvel and the happy marriages you have are...
Are...
Are...
And it's sad, because Marvel is supposed to be the "real" company, and being in a happy committed relationship is the reality for socially competent, normal people.
>>98034452>They take seriouslyNope. About the only one that's taken it seriously is Morrison who shows that no matter how many times Namor kisses her she's Reed's woman and will always be Reed's woman.
I think he's the only one to actually have Sue acknowledge that her having shallow thoughts about Namor/Black Panther/whoever is a character flaw in the same way Johnny's impulsivity is or Reed's autistic isolation.
