![]() ![]() ![]() His comics have always been about secret organisations with the power to affect the lives of millions of people. I'm not accusing Hickman of being a fascist, merely that he explores Fascism. Hickman's main theme in his Marvel work is " Might makes right, got yours and the hell with everyone else." That's fascism boiled down to its purest nugget. Hickman definitely has consistent themes that swim happily in the sea of murderous fascists. The Black Monday Murders was about secret magical cabals that manipulate the stock market and global economy for power. ![]() Manhattan Projects was about psychopathic alt-universe versions of famous scientists and military officials committing murder and genocide. He likes his Hard Science Fiction, and it's always about using power on an epic, political, cosmic scale. Infinity and Secret War were about Power and who gets to live or die. Hell, his long Avengers run was about committing genocide across multiple universes. His Marvel work has superheroes actively contemplating genocide all the time. Virtually all his stories are about secret organisations of powerful people who control and change the world. In fact, nearly all his major stories are about Fascism. I think Hickman's story is about Fascism. Some readers interpreted Hickman's story as an allegory for White Nationalism. ![]()
