I've always suspected democrats looked bad because they were mostly trying to put out the dumpster fire of an economy that republicans left behind. That of course never worked out to well, so (stupid) people were disappointed and voted for a bigger dumpster fire.

Things like that don't matter much when you're a dictator.

Genuine question: will that rot away in a while or is there something in dandelion stems that makes them keep or is there some way to make them keep indefinitely?

Well, movies based on comics are inherently also tied to a very visual canon. And, arguably, their whole point is putting those exact visuals on the big screen (for an audience that grew up reading the comics and now has money).

The way to get that right is to make characters and stories that look and feel exactly like the comics, but more and better. Only good change is when you fix something that was broken or janky.

Arguably the ww2 era worldviews and gender and US biases are good targets to fix, of course. But changing the visuals starkly will still be an obvious mistake. Especially when there's actually nearly 100 years worth of stories and characters to pick and mix from and no reason you can't add more.

Don't break the fucking canon! And that includes the visuals.
