The new leftist, hip, politically-correct iteration of Superman is Jonathan Kent, a bisexual who combats “the climate change crisis and protests against the deportation of refugees.” Jonathan is the son of Clark Kent and Lois Lane of the original Superman series. This is a further progression in the promotion of homosexuality by the major comic publishers. Earlier this year, it was announced that the new Robin of Batman and Captain America will have boyfriends. Tom Taylor, series writer for DC Comics, told the New York Times, “Superman’s symbol has always stood for hope, for truth and for justice. Today, that symbol represents something more. Today, more people can see themselves in the most powerful superhero in comics.” In reality, there is no truth or hope in DC Comics. It is pure mythology akin to Greek gods and goddesses. The comic genre, as well as science fiction, present a fantasy world without God, without divine purpose, without the fall and redemption, without heaven and hell, without Jesus Christ who is “the way, the truth, and the life.” It is a world that is attractive to man’s fallen nature, but it is a mere daydream that will come crashing down in the presence of Almighty God.
