I have no argument for Renner. I just really like him and his character.

And if you go female Thor.....then there's your big female lead.

Yeah, and they're bringing Captain Marvel in with Brie Larson. That's going to be a home run based on casting alone.

Female Thor
Homosexual minority Spider Man

These are the sort of things that would have me stop watching Marvel movies.

To be fair I'd arugue Miles is the ONLY character they did well.

Miles was done in an alternate universe where he asked other people, after Peter Parker had died, if it was Ok to carry on the legacy.

That is the whole point of Miles Morales - the idea that spider man would carry on after him...

If you want to replace shit characters, I'm fine with that. When you start replacing iconic characters, especially those with unique origins, instead of just creating new ones, I'm no longer fine with it. And, when you start doing it for political reasons, you can **** off and die.

Replace some guy who's a product of training and/or money, like an Iron man (Marvel) or Batman (DC)? Sure, if you do it well.

Replace some guy who's a product of a miraculous result of just the right amount of radiation impacting just the right spider that then bites just the right human at just the right time? No. Venom's bad enough as a knock off. We don't need the gay minority miracle on top of that.

This is exactly what Marvel did and ruined their comix.

Peter David is a big time liberal but he's my favorite comix writer. He does come at stories from a left perspective but he writes excellent stories - not advertisements for his political beliefs.

Yes, and one of the guys behind it has recently gone over to DC, where he'll almost certainly set about ruining that brand.

I've actually read some of his novels, and enjoyed them as mindless reading.

I'd recommend "Incredible Hulk Visionaries - Peter David, Vol. 1, Vol. 2, and Vol. 3."

If you don't want to pay for them (and I would argue they're worth it) there are other ways to read them. I do highly recommend reading them though...
