[Captain Nash]

I think the changes are fine if they make sense. If there is an actual reason in story that's not just some thinly veiled cover for PC. If the relationship between the old and new characters works in such a way that there is either A: logical history between the characters that it makes sense for the change or B: if there is an singular (or handful) of events in which the change is either a matter of honor between the characters (like if character A sacrificed their life/powers for character B, and character B felt honor bound to carry on the legacy), or if the decision was taken out of their hands and the they had no choice but for the switch.

I think the Sam Wilson as Captain America made perfect sense. I think X-23 as Wolverine makes perfect sense as well.

I'm not so sure the Nova, Hulk, and upcoming Iron Man switches make sense. Don't get me started on Thor. Thor is a name, not a code-name. I'm actually totally fine with Jane Foster being in the ROLE of what is she is doing -- in fact I think it's one of the more interesting concepts -- but she needed to have a different name and that really is my only gripe with it for me.

The Spider-man and Ms. Marvel switches are a little different because you do have the originals around in some capacity. It's not a technical 100% replacement. Hawkeye/Kate Bishop is the same way.

I heard there's a new Wasp but I don't know enough of that situation to adequately judge it, as I also under Jan's still around?

The original 5 teen X-men are a situation unique all unto themselves.


And it's not like Marvel hasn't done things like this before. There's been several Spider-women and Ghost Riders. Iron Man has been more than just Tony Stark in the past. All the Ant-Mans..mens..Manses? It just seems for the most part the replacements are all teens, geared towards a new generation, and all being done as an agenda of PC-ism.
