But the comic doesn't portray an "ambiguous series of events that could be potentially offensive". It portrays a series of events that IS offensive. Playing rape as comedy in a mainstream comic is never cool, even if the rape itself didn't take place, the readers were meant to think it did, therefore it's still playing rape for laughs.
And people getting angry about it? Good. I'm glad. people SHOULD be angry about it and calling out Marvel on the bullshit because that's part of what our ethos is all about.
This cartoon both really misses the mark and also the multiple reasons why people are upset and angry about the sequence and belittles legitimate complaints.
