In keeping with the relentless over-compensating Hollywood propaganda of all-action superwomen having to contend with ineffectual nincompoop guys

This is nothing to do with Hollywood, this is in comics.

What the article doesn't explain is HOW they are able to do this. Don't they have storylines to follow - how does Thor suddenly become a woman? Is it simply a new comic with a female Thor or is Thor going to somehow switch gender? Will male and female Thor coexist in the comic-book universe?

And does this mean Wonderwoman will become a man?
