If You Are REALLY Stupid you will keep saying "The UK cannot have super heroes"

There are mutterings that "You cannot have Brtitish super heroes" and all the additional comments added to that.

Well, that ios just a complete and utter lack of any kind of imagination (considering that some behind this statement are also calling themselves "comic pros"....I say no more). We have ancient stone circles and sites (stonehenge is NOT the only one in the UK), ancient forests, mountains, cities, beaches and are surrounded by the sea. Now if you cannot see stories involving those....go read a Dandy comic.

As I noted before in The Ultimate Improbability Of The British Super Hero (August 2019)

I think that it is totally insulting to British peoples' intelligence to say "We do not have skyscraper cities so that rules out super heroes" -in fact that is insulting to anyone with intelligence. Look at British folklore and superstition and there is so much material there. Look at Scottish myths and legends and you will see why it does not need skyscrapers -look at what the country's geography offers.  Wales -again, the geography, myths and legends.  England, Scotland and Wales have some incredible locales as well as stunning locations.

This is (England) the country where, for a hundred years, we had the Terror of London -Spring-heeled Jack.  Varney the Vampire, Lewis's "The Monk" or even Melmoth The Wanderer and I certainly took advantage in adapting those characters for comics. But there is so much more out there. Dark alleys ways, disused old Victorian factories, castles, sea forts -who the flipping hell needs skyscrapers?

Also, British comics has a long history of costumed crime fighters with or without powers -wejust called them "action heroes" -in boys' papers and so on they go back to at least the 19th century and before skyscrapers or the term "super heroes".

Gerald G Swan and Denis M Reader as well as Denis Gifford introduced the super hero to the UK. That was back in the 1940s and into the 1950s right up until the collapse of the Bronze Age (1977) they kept-a-coming.

So, please, do not listen to people who want to keep comics in the UK stagnent. Use your mind and take a look at the countryside -Wales, Scotland, England or Ireland. It's a beautiful place, baby!
