Setting aside the usual question of why anyone's bothering to listen to the Hood, or why all these disparate personas and people are working together seamlessly...
How do the Wrecking Crew have their powers? They got them from Loki, and there's no sign or sight of a single Asgardian in any House of M-related material. How does Titania have her powers? She got them from Doctor Doom back during the original Secret Wars. So unless Vic was going around randomly giving bullied youths superpowers, which is... unlikely, she shouldn't have 'em either!
...but maybe not their powers. The Skrulls were still Skrulls after all. So maybe they have their powers but a "new" origin story that matches a world without Gods or aliens.
I love Gage. The man can turn any idea into gold, but the guy always gets ignored. I wnder how much ass he would kic if he weren't always shoved off on third string titles.
Wait, they're on a heist to get gold from circuit boards, and they have someone who can transmute silicon into carfentanil? Silicon into a kind of obscure organic molecule.
Um.
OK, there are ways to explain why they don't or can't just use his tech to make palladium, but it threw me.

Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

I want to retroactively slap his creator. :)
