I only have excellent ideas
Joe Bennett is the regular penciler for the series who has indeed tweeted support for Bolsonaro. More recently he came under fire for liking a transphobic comment on a drawing of She-Hulk and drawing a background detail in Immortal Hulk #43 that many saw as anti-Semitic (a big window sign that said "Cronenberg's Jewery [sic]" with a Star of David under it). Bennett did apologize for the latter and claimed that it was an innocent mistake-- how convincingly is up to you but I'm still narrowing my eyes at him.

For what it's worth, I am still reading Immortal Hulk because I do not know of another Marvel title with a trans character, let alone a cool trans character who is allowed to be proactive in the plot.

I am actually torn about this. Like hey, yeah, good on Snyder for calling them out. On the other hand, this is exactly the audience his movies are made for. Wittingly or not, Zack Snyder is marketing to an alt-right audience and it's hard to congratulate him without reservations for suddenly being upset about that.

While I'm not going to argue there's certainly a lot of overlap between the alt right and hardcore Snyder weirdos, I think this is a bit harsh on the man himself. They liked him as a symbol, as this is showing, never the actual content of his work, which I'm sure they're all much too loving stupid to understand. Not because his work takes a genius, just because ComicsGate people are so loving dumb and single minded.

Yeah, a lot of them absolutely seemed to gravitate to Snyder because he wasn't the MCU what with all their being 'political.'

There's a trend by Comicsgaters to swing toward an alternate media to show that they are not haters of the media as a whole. Like when they batted for Alita: Battle Angel (against Captain Marvel), the Sonic movie (against Birds of Prey) or The Mandalorian (against the sequel trilogy but it got really funny when they all got mad at Cara Dune's debut and then liked her when Gina turned out to have their chud ideology). It's a grift. I'm convinced they either hate almost everything that comes out or really center their identity on anything that isn't whatever they consider 'woke' to be.

I get the sense that a lot of these people that orchestrate these groups aren't so much fans at all but just see these petty genre wars as a place to insert their hatred into something other than just a political realm so it can take root. And that way they can infect someone's impressionable mind through an avenue that person is susceptible to liking. They can use this as a front to convert more people to their ways.
