Is is a good subsaidit and thread to say Umbrella Academy has always been misogynistic garbage?

"The Umbrella Academy is set in a universe where 43 women around the world give birth simultaneously on October 1, 1989, despite none of them showing any sign of pregnancy until labor began. Seven of the children are adopted by eccentric billionaire Sir Reginald Hargreeves..."

So, supposedly, one in six women is ok with selling her baby.

Netflix loves transing homosexual couples. Seems this time they transed actress instead.

As a fan of the comic, I got the idea that series 4 was going to show what happened to the others. So apparently almost all of them were. The Sparrow Academy wasn’t some “time travel accident” in the comic, but a separate group of people with a different leader.

I love the comic. I’m really sad that it’s probably going to go to the queerios now.

I don't really know anything about TUA myself, but it might be worth noting that it's based on a comic by Gerard Way (of My Chemical Romance), who is somewhat of a darling of the trans community for sharing his own history of gender struggles.
