Artist leaves DC Comics over new woke Superman: ‘I’m tired of them ruining these characters’

Eltaeb said that the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back was when DC Comics brass removed "the American way" from Superman's slogan:

"What really pissed me off was saying truth, justice, and a better world. F*ck that; it was 'truth, justice, and the American way.'"

"My Grandpa almost died in World War II; we don’t have a right to destroy sh*t that people died for to give us. It’s a bunch of f*cking nonsense," continued Eltaeb, according to Bounding Into Comics.

Superman as a comic has gone full "woke" in recent years, including a full coming-out of Superman's son as bisexual recently.

"I’m finishing out my contract with DC. I’m tired of this sh*t, I’m tired of them ruining these characters; they don’t have a right to do this."

"At Comic-Con in 2009, I was pushing Jerry Robinson’s wheelchair around. That’s the man who invented the Joker."

"I would work the DC booth back then. I remember bending down to his face and telling him, thank you for creating these characters, so people like me can waltz in and get a job. It’s not about gay or anything else."

Eltaeb went on:

"They call us bigots and racist and sh*t, I would ask them, find me in the f*cking mainstream, not on the fringes, one f*cking book, one f*cking t-shirt, one movie that says that leftism is bad, and conservatism is good, find it for me, they f*cking won't. They’re not letting people have a voice, they’re the f*cking bigots."

"Sorry. That’s been bottled up for five years."
