This poster (which I used to have up on my wall as a teen) is from 2007, a year before the MCU started, and 5 years before we get the first Avengers film.

It's interesting to see who's in the very front, and who's pushed to the back.

How different do you think this poster would be now?

I can sure as hell bet that Fantastic Four would be nowhere near the front anymore.

>>77600513
Didn't they already show the 2015 poster?
Pretty sure there were no FF or X Men on it, or just very little X Men.
>>
>>77600513
I still have it on my wall.

i am very sure they made another poster without x-men and FF

Makes me wonder what exactly Marvel has to do to change the perception of a character in the public's eye. Having good stories (Remender) didn't work. Having him in a popular franchise (Avengers, GotG) didn't work. Having him in another media (Ultimate Spider-Man animated series) didn't work.

Is it impossible?

the main problem is he isnt as memorable
Venom came along in a time when not only comics where pretty popular but also when the green goblin, Venom was written in away in wich he manages to find out petes identity but use it in a creative way that destincts him from the goblin, the fact that he also mirrored all of spidey's moves and played off alot on his quips made him loved among people, i liked Agent Venom but he still comes over as a placeholder for the eventual return to formula
>>
>>77600680
Absolutely fucking awful. On top of the roster the art is a god damn cluster fuck. They should be ashamed of this garbage.
>>
>>77600680
Yea the Celestials are so much more popular than Galactus. Totally has nothing to do with film rights.

I guess it's the same reason why the unknown characters are always the easiest to kill or change. Until you shake the world, nobody cares. I guess it also works the other way around as the movie proved to be the Guardians of the Galaxy's downfall forever. No matter how serious they try to be from now on, they will always be under the shadow of the eventual back to the "outlaw comedy band" status quo.
>>
>>77601288
sad truth
>>
>>77600680
So little effort. I wouldn't be surprised if someone find duplicates.
>>
>>77601172
I'd say Flash has been plenty memorable, until recently. This nonsense with putting him on the Guardians has really killed any hope for him, though. I've loved nearly every appearance he's made before then. Damn shame too, hasn't Bendis written Gargan Venom before? You'd think he wouldn't trash on a character, or even the Symbiote concept as a whole as hard as he has.

Literally all Spider-Man comics ever made till the end of JMS run.

Apart from tiny little exceptions, they're all GOAT.

You also might want to get interestind in MK Spider-Man. It's also pretty GOAT.

Are comic book companies really this out of touch with the public?
>>
>>77614084
Ultron is that Tron looking motherfucker behind Falcon.

I THINK that's Scatlet Witch near the frost giant at the back, though I can't find that specific piece of art, and that's definitely Emma Frost next to Venom, which oddly makes them the only two mutants on the poster I think. Pretty transparent that they're only there to pad out the number of female characters though.

Also the only characters that debuted in Fantastic Four included are ones that have been in Marvel Studios films.

I believe this was explained as being related to Marvel not owning the merch rights to those characters somehow, but it makes me curious how the rights work then. How is Ronan not an FF character? Why are Spider-Man characters allowed? How is Emma Frost there as the sole X-Men character? Why do they have both regular Venom and Agent Venom?

what a fucking mess of photoshop

And I wondered who the fuck that is.

Not Emma, it's Sharon Carter.

Hourman

That's Sif in the back with the other asgardians

I'm pretty sure Jessica Jones is from a What If cover.

You won't find muggas there. If there's no place for Wolverine, there's no place for anyone else from X-Men.

I think that wikipedia image of Mandarin is my favorite part. A Bomb and Rulk being there is good too.

>>77600680
Wolverine really is gone for good, isn't he?

Also before the SJW movement went viral. A poster like this with no blacks up front would be crucified by today's standards.

who?
>>
>>77612769
A majority of those people probably haven't picked up any of the comics Flash has been in. Whenever a different character takes over, there's always not muh. Never understood how it was once so easy for DC to make legacy characters out the ass for everyone except Batman, Superman (though the two of them have been replaced from time to time, but it never lasts) and Wonder Woman, but Marvel can't get away with that at all.

Suppose it's mostly because lately all of these legacy characters are poorly written.
>>
>>77616706
I think it's more because people don't want their characters to go but at the same time don't know what the hell want to see them doing. That's why if they leave it's shit and if they stay it's either OOC shit or the same old shit.
>>

It's Mayday. It looks like Pat Olliffe's (he worked on Spider-Girl) style.
>>
>>77600680
Miles is standing in such an incredibly gay pose that he looks like a female spider-man
>>
>>77614248
Bats/Supes/Hal seems so accurate for how successful Green Lantern has been this past decade in the comics.
>>
>>77614609
YES!
>>
>>77600936
>Blue Devil that far forward.

Was he ever that popular?
>>
>>77600936
In the new poster Harley Quinn will probably be in between Batman and Superman instead of Hal.
>>
>>77600680
Why is Wasp Ultimate Wasp? did she survive the Blob and Secret Wars?
>>
>>77623852
People making these sometimes don't remember which version is which.
>>
>>77601080
>>77610261
Man I wonder if people are going to look at these posters 10 years from now and finally realize that all the marginalizing of the FF and X-Men really was going on.
