Is that a “Thin Blue Line” thing? My mind’s not even processing this.

Basically, I think it usually goes with “Blue Lives Matter”

So I’ve apparently completely missed this. What is the deal with the Dracula stuff?

Seems important

Apparently Blade is and has been part of the Marvel universe (which is something I only learned because of the new Midnight Suns game). So the joke is that Blade has apparently been fighting a vampire breakout in NYC for years and the Avengers, in NYC, have never stopped by to help him out or check in.

If you think about this too hard it ruins basically every Marvel film where the big bad presents an existential threat. LIke, where the fuck were the rest of the avengers during the events of Multiverse of Madness? Nick Fury didn’t think to page Carol Danvers when Loki was invading NYC?

I remember in the '90s comics they would at least address this by saying like, “oh darn, the avengers are in outer space and the ff are in another dimension right now, guess spidey’s got to handle it solo”

It’s also weird that 90% of the superheroes are all in NYC, like there’s crime and stuff in Dallas, Texas as well.

Dr. Strange at least splits time between NYC, London, and Hong Kong.

Wasnt’ there a comic book crossover that also established at some point that the events of Star Trek take place in the marvel universe? Am I making that up? I seem to remember that.

What’s a superhero going to do in New York when there are already 50 superheroes there? And how come none of them ever help Blade with the vampire problem?
