I liked Avengers 2 more than The Force Unleashed.
I didn't like Winter Soldier. GotG butchered Ronan and fuck that "lets all hold hands and win through power of love" battle.

I can't get into indies. Maybe I just haven't found the right ones yet, but for now I'm a full on cape pleb.

I am terribly disappointed with how Gravity Falls developed recently and starting to doubt if it was ever good to begin with.
I think Life After Death is a better album than Ready to Die, but Puffy ruins both of them with his adlibs.
>>78473297
Well, considering playing is a much more personal experience I enjoyed the force unleashed more than most heroes movies, it was a pretty fun game to fuck shit up with sabers and force powers, if you can ignore the attempt to have a plot.
I also enjoyed Naughty Bear more than Interstellar.
I don't think Omega Men is that great. It started really good, but it's been losing steam in the last couple of issues and nothing interesting really happens.
Vision is King's best work so far.

Also I preferred Age of Ultron over The Force Awaken
I care more about DC characters than Marvel characters

PRIVATE IRON VERSUS WAR BASTARD
Bendis was good, his Daredevil and Ultimate Spider-Man are examples of this. But not any more, he's shit.
The Killing Joke and The Dark Knight Returns will both always be the most overrated Batman stories. It doesn't mean that the stories are bad, but there are stories much better than the both of them featuring Batman.
Flex Mentallo saved my life.
I've had roleplay sex.
As much as I love Jack Kirby, his storytelling was hamfisted and his male faces were all a bit off.
I believe comics are the most underrated medium. There's something to fit everyone's fancy other than just cape comics.
Feminism, however, is slowly ruining comics, and most feminists don't read comics.
I believe everyone has a purpose and there's no need to be upset or depressed.
South Park Season 19 was the best season to happen in ages.
Johns' JSA is my favorite comic run of all time.
Wall-E is my favorite Pixar movie.
Jodorowsky is my favorite comics writer.
>>78473422
In a world where Bendis exists, yes.
>>78473504

But if someone's purpose is to be depressed? Now that's a conundrum for ya.
>>78473077
Mabel has consistently been a jerk and Dipper deserves better
I liked most of Bendis's X-Men run (not all of it obviously)
I like that Bobby is gay now but hate how it happened

I liked the Watchmen movie

>>78473325
You doubt your own judgement? Wow, that's not a cartoon doing that.
People with low self esteem (like you) often believe that they're incapable of making rational decisions; they develop a kind of "imposter syndrome" where they internally mark every success and achievement they make as the result of luck or a mistake or simply the task being so superficial it is meaningless or easily accomplished that the same is true.
Of course, if you're saying you no longer enjoy something that you once enjoyed, that's fine and it doesn't point to mental illness or a personality disorder as the cause, but that's not the same thing as something never having been good and your having been mistaken in the belief that it was; it just means you changed your mind about whether you enjoy it or not. The actual qualities of the thing observed are different to your perception of them, you see?
I don't have a stake in this, but if you're having these kind of doubts about yourself, especially at this time of year, talk to someone. Doesn't have to be a family member or friend or colleague (though they may be the closest, even if they're sympathetic, they may not have the skills to help you), you can call a helpline, or drop by a church or other house of worship and talk to a priest/equivalent title goes here; they often have honed listening skills and they've certainly seen a lot of people with all kinds of problems come through their door. If they tell you to pray, well, consider it an opportunity for some quiet self-reflection and examine the facts instead of talking to god (unless you want to talk to god, it's just that god doesn't talk back - unless you are crazy). You can also talk to your doctor or find groups who can talk to you (because your doctor is going to be super busy right now, but don't let that put you off asking) through your doctor's medical practice. You can even find help from less obvious sources - but you know your situation better than I do.
Good luck.

Lesbianism is going to be the biggest market draw for a show to either succeed or fail since our standards as a society have lost its priorities entirety.
It happened with Adventure Time and we're 7 seasons in with its biggest plot point being about Marceline learning to behave more human and lady like with PB teaching her
LoK I don't think I need to explain
Gravity Falls should be an example since Alex has tweeted in the past how Pinecest is sick and wrong and the fans of his show trigger him.
>>78477835

I thought TFA was okay
I always get triggered whenever nostalgia fags talk about how shit cartoons are these days

It all depends on which ones.
LGBT storylines in comics will always feel like hamfisted gender politics to me. Any attempt at portraying the trials of being a non-straight person will always feel disingenuous to me and pandering to the progressive social justice crowd. Maybe I just haven't read the good ones, but I don't know. It just feels less cool in general.
>>78483757

>>78483835
I don't necessarily look for them but the ones I've encountered are
Young Avengers (the ongoing relationship drama between Billy and Teddy is annoying af)
The Gay Bobby retconComing of Age, when Danny suddenly thirsts for dick after being rejected by Amazi-girl. Dropped that like it's hot.
Guess I'll give it a shot.
More and more I feel alienated from old friends, specifically in regards to comics stuff. Someone who I used to agree with a lot went full tumblr recently.
I wonder if they've changed or I have.
As much as I've come to dislike shipping I feel like I might forgive Homestuck if they put the kids back together.
I think I'm a little tougher on literary lesbians than I should be because of personal reasons, but at the same time I'm sick of hearing about how important it is that we have more of them, all the time, everywhere, because its important.
I think I've finally accepted I'm not going to make it as a writer, that nothing I have to say is what anyone's interested in hearing.

>>78484177
The short answer is "no".
They all tend to focus too much on the whole gayness thing. Instead of trying to be great at whatever genre they're in.
There's not a great sci-fi action comic where the two leads happen to be gay, for instance. Instead, there's Starfighter.

I wouldn't really say that, Pep Butt was just smarter and won with an underhanded tactic. The show makes it clear that Peppermint is kind of evil.
The kids were pretty happy with it and they weren't much weirder than the other freaks that exist in the show.
>>78484160
I absolutely loathe mckelvie's art style
it's like if pure faggotry can be translated into art
all of his "young, hot guy" characters are essentially twinks with extremely punchable faces
>>78484258
Yeah, that's my problem. They're horrifically turned into children, and the child attacking monster is a zany side character don't you love his adventures!
My issue with Adventure Time is that there's no goddamn follow through. Even Bubblegum getting overthrown (FINALLY) was just to show what a good ruler she was instead of forcing her character to take a look at what a psycho she turned into thanks to her paranoia from the Lich nearly killing her.
Like my point is that if you're going to kick around in the deep end, I'd like you to actually do something with it.
>>78473252
Only time I've forcepulled a Star Destroyer out of the sky. I liked it.
>>78484291
He does have a bad case of sameface. But his bland, fuckdoll faces are the least of his problems. His art never has a good sense of weight or motion to it. It's like watching mannequins attempt to do things.
Which is pretty damning when cape comics are supposed to be energetic and engaging. Hell, even a comic about magic dancing isn't a good fit for him since he can't seem to convey any sense of motion and lacks any real dynamic flair.
Oversexualized comics need to be left alone and dressing Vampirella like Claire Redfield was a far bigger tragedy than gay Iceman.

>>78475028
TFA knew exactly what it wanted to do and unlike AoU actually felt like it had stakes (even if it was rushed.)
AoU was one giant "fuck you" from Whedon that relied way too much on snarky one liners than actual character development and tried to balance like five different upcoming plots so the whole Ultron threat boiled down to "wah I hate my Dad" when Ultron was a way more menacing villain in the comics (hell the animated show did a better job with his motives)
And the final fight was leagues below the NYC one from the original. Seriously fuck Age of Ultron
>>78484543

>More and more I feel alienated from old friends, specifically in regards to comics stuff. Someone who I used to agree with a lot went full tumblr recently.
>I wonder if they've changed or I have.
Lately it feels to me like everyone is either going full tumblr or full stormfront and there's no middle ground left.
I guess if those are the only choices I have to go tumblr because I despise stormfront with every fiber of my being, even though I also despise tumblr with 99% of the fibers of my being. I wonder how many other people are in this predicament, reblogging things when their heart isn't really in it because they'd be evil not to.
>>78484756
All of a sudden? "lol" has been hated by the more "underground" internet for at least the 15 years I've been on the internet. because it's too "mainstream." We're always finding some new "lewl" or "lmao" or "kek" to differentiate us.
>>78483757
>>78484023
Part of it is what you're reading, part of it is perception. You've gotta be OK with LGBT relationships taking the spotlight like any other relationship often will, you gotta accept that people will often be "revealed" as LGBT because sexuall orientation isn't typically established first thing, you gotta accept LGBT issues are going to pop up because that's just reality still. LGBT stuff draws the eye because up until recently it's been unusual so people sometimes think stuff is more in your face than it really is.
But a lot of people don't know how to treat anything social justice related with tact and can't avoid forcing in an Aesop in a story that isn't about that sort of thing. Bad examples have it overtake a story or make the relationship only exist to show that Being Gay Is Alright rather than being a natural extension of the characters like straight relationships typically are in fiction. Too often they lack buildup like straight relationships get, they don't occur between characters that have known each other for a while and have had interactions that would make the audience actually cheer for it. It's just dropped on the reader out of nowhere, maybe even destroying the prospects of a better established relationship, and then the reader is asked to Just Accept It even though the reason they might not like it has more to do with them shipping one of the characters with someone they've known for much longer and shared more screentime with.
Is it too much to ask for the LGBT ships to have some romantic tension?
I am so worried about the fall of comic book movies that I am having trouble enjoying them currently every time I watch one I think "is this the beginning of the end?"
I pray that Adam Warlock is in GotG2 and he's cool, because I am so sick of lying to people and saying Batman is my favorite character.
>>78485033
Might be referring to that setup where the main character has two friends, one of the same and one of the opposite sex. Opposite sex friend is either a tomboy or a sensitive boy. Opposite sex friend is also a potential romantic interest. Thus, in fiction where the MC is a loser male, their opposite sex friend slash romantic interest is a tomboy.
I despise comic adaptations of anything that wasn't originally a comic.

if have been at least 4 years that we hate it, and kek feels so forced now.
same happen to owned and rolf, those shit is old so we don't care about them anymore.
Comics have slowly been killing themselves ever since they moved to the direct market. An entire medium of entertainment and art became something just for nerds and geeks, worse some of the fandom seems proud of it
I 100% don't give a shit if a character was originally was a Jew, Black, White, Asian, Brown, Straight, Gay, Bi or anything like that. Write the character good and don't force it.
I prefer female leads to males
If comics are going to survive I think they're going to need to swap to this format because I don't know a soul that buys singles anymore and I can't imagine why you would. At least this style would expose people to a more diverse cast of characters and maybe we could see them on newsstands.

I stopped reading comics about three years ago, and mostly abandoned /co/ for /tg/, but I still come by every now and then because I do occasionally like the discussion (and Toonami General).
I honestly only read comics for roughly a year, although I read about 12 to 16 titles a month during that time, and I ventured back to earlier runs and read them as well. I stopped for a number of reasons.
>Floppies are a terrible medium.
>>Shit lasting power.

>>They don't look good on a shelf.
>>Only about 10 to 20 minutes of entertainment, if that.
>>And all this for the absurd price of $4 an issue, which was something of a 50/50 split with the Big Two when I read, but has now become the standard, which is fucking ridiculous.
I have the goal of collecting omnibuses of my favorite runs; have the first of X-Factor (Investigations), for instance, and two of KotOR.
>Nothing matters. During the time I read, I maintained the mentality of canonical integrity as not worth considering, since so long as the stories themselves are good, who cares what comes after? I kept it for most of the time that I read, but it just got ridiculous. I think what killed it for me was Bendis' Guardians of the Galaxy. That solidified that nothing mattered. Old cosmic ended on a fantastic note with Nova and Star-Lord's sacrifice, and while I knew that it wouldn't last, the absolute lack of dignity that Bendis handles the entirety of cosmic is just embarrassing.
>Marvel whoring out. I feel as though them doing this started roughly around the time I was reading, and while I know there was instances of this happening before, I'm talking about this particular set. It definitely seems to have gotten worse with All-New, All-Different, from what I've seen. I'm not against "diversity," since I'm not a /pol/-tard, but I have a huge problem with the way Marvel is doing it, and especially the REASON why they're doing it. Con't

>>78485898
Move away from capeshit, holy fuck.
There are a fuckton of different kinds of comic.
Hell, there's a storytime right now about what the capital of North Korea is like.
>>78485898
>Marvel's not inserting "diversity" into their comics because it's the "right thing to do" or to give non-white kids or girls or whatever heroes "like them" to look up to. They're doing it almost exclusively to get attention; and I get it, they're a company, they need to make money. But damn, with these methods, it's almost as if I can just HEAR a bunch of these guys saying, "We're cool with the minority and equal women thing," as if it's some kind of new concept. It's just so pathetic and handled so poorly.
I'm also just really tired of the superhero movies. It's weird. When I actually get around to watching them, I tend to enjoy them, even the ones /co/ generally seems to dislike (except Thor; that was definitely on the poor side). But it takes a lot of effort for me to actually get around to watching the recent superhero movies. The only reason I saw Ant-Man was for date material, and before that I saw Guardians of the Galaxy because they're my second-favorite team. Before that, I can't really remember what superhero movies I had seen in theaters.
It's like I said, when I watch them, I like them, but man am I sick of the numbers they're releasing in, and that number is only getting bigger. Not just with Marvel flooding the market, but with DC trying to play catch-up, the occasional independent title, as well as parodies. I'm just so burned-out by this point.
Personally, I theorize that the superhero industry is going to take a dive after the Avengers movies finish the building storyline with Thanos. I don't really have a justification for it. It just seems logical based on the ever-rising numbers of superhero movies releasing, that the MCU is currently the dominant force in superhero film market, and that that's the big thing it's building towards. The DCU might take it, I don't know, and it's probably just my pessimism talking, but like I said, I have no real evidence; it's just a theory.
>>78485923
I did a little bit of that, too, but torrenting really isn't my thing.

You guys are just going to call me a faggot or something, but for the most part, I don't really care for reading comics outside of superheroes unless it's a tie-in like Star Wars. I can't really explain why, it's just not my thing. I appreciate comic books as an art form and what it can portray through visuals that a novel sometimes can't, but typically if I want to experience a story that isn't about superheroes, I prefer it through mediums that aren't comics.
I've always wanted to be an animator but due to holding myself back and thinking I'll never make anything of this holds me back from actually doing anything. So I have to force myself to just hold a pencil and practice drawing, but I think that over the years I've developed crippling depression and tell myself that I'm not good enough.I just want to make you guys proud and make original content that can inspire others to create their own work of art, but sadly I don't know if I have it in myself to make such a dream possible. Also I've been having a few drinks tonight and made myself sad. I love you all and hope for the best for you all.
>>78486067
No, it's fine, if you don't like non-superhero comics then you shouldn't force yourself to read them.
Just do us all a favor and don't ever tell anyone that you were "into" comics or that you were a "fan" of comics, because you weren't. Comics are nothing to you. You were just using them to get your fix.
>>78486109
Yeah, that's a better way to put it; I should've specified that it was primarily the Big Two. I also read the earlier Valiant titles when they were first coming out (Bloodshot, Harbingers, and Archer and Armstrong; I think I stopped before Quantum and Woody released, but I knew it was coming). Granted, still superhero stuff kinda, but I really enjoyed them. It helped that the continuity was very strong and didn't feel like they were as mired in bullshit as the Big Two. Unfortunately, I just kinda got bored of the medium as a whole. Talking about them has gotten me interested in maybe tracking down their trades now, though.
>>78486171
Oh, right, completely forgot about X-O Manowar and Shadowman. Weird how I forgot the former, since it was my second favorite after Archer and Armstrong. I just remember being ambivalent about Shadowman.
That's a tangent, though.
>>78484657
I came to realize this by the last Ghoul Thread we had on Christmas Eve.
Everyone was sad that we wouldn't have anymore until next October. However I recall someone proposing that we hold these threads monthly on every full moon, and everyone seemed to support it.
So in the last thread, I asked if we were still doing that and... out of fucking nowhere, everyone was suddenly against the idea! They said they didn't want to because they wanted to keep them "special" and apparently a monthly thread wouldn't be "special" enough!
The fuck is the shit!? So threads based on subjects I'm indifferent towards get a weekly schedule but the moment I'm interested in something, we are only aloud to have threads of them in October and December!?
It wasn’t even intended to be a holiday specific thing, the first ones we had were in summer! Why make it holiday specific now!? I was really looking forward to the monthly threads, only for that excitement to be shat on last minute!
You all disgust me! If I wasn't so helplessly addicted to this place, I'd stop coming here all together!
>>78486622
/co/ has too many idea men that want everything to be an ongoing project and not enough producers (drawfags, writefags) that want to make shit for /co/. There also people that don't like threads being necrobumped by people wanting free art of their waifus. They tend to hate these "projects" that are nothing but "draw my obscure waifu" generals.
>>78486999
So it's official, /co/ can't be trusted with nice things!
>>78473077
Force Awakens is getting by on nostalgia and Kylo Ren is an abortion of a villain
I could forgive the former but I am legit pissed since the latter is going to be the new face of evil for the franchise now.
Shit.
>>78486090
Upload to a drawthread. If you've been practicing as often as you imply, you're likely a few steps up from deviantart, and even if they say you're shit, hey, you're on 4chan. It's not like you have a reputation to uphold here.
>>78484373
>>78484452
Reminder to never listen to /co/ whenever they talk about video games.
>>78487120
>nice things
We can't have nice things because of waifufags constantly making threads like the daily "Show me your harem" threads. Waifufags are the ones that keep the 24/7 generals up, make shitty OC projects based on their fetishes, and clog the drawthreads with reposts and shitposting about their waifu.
>>78487230
Maybe if we just hate video games altogether like /v/. Will we be cool then?
Force Unleashed is a passable game. It's not worth paying for, but it wasn't exactly bad.
>>78473077
It upsets me how King's Vision has gotten so much more attention when it's been his weakest work. And Sheriff of Babylon has gotten no attention from readers.
>>78473077
i pirated the last wall e, good dinosaur and up
>>78473211
> GotG butchered Ronan and fuck that "lets all hold hands and win through power of love" battle.
A lot of people agree about that one though.
>>78473373
Yep, the quality dropped in the last two issues. But Vision's 2nd issue wasn't as great as the first either.
Either way, I think both are great.
>>78473077
all generals should be banned and sent to /trash/
>>78487277
hasn't king's vision been getting so little attention that marvel has to give it away?
>>78473422
It makes perfect sense, for the longest time DC writing was story-driven while Marvel focused on character-driven stories. This has blurred somewhat over the years but its hard to shake loose decades of that status quo, the X-Men are coasting on character-driven stories from back in the 80s.
>>78487958
Yeah. And they're giving away issues because they want to get him on contract.
>>78473570
Saved
>>78487277
Only one issue so far, give it a bit of time.
>>78487992
How long is Sheriff of Babylon going to be?
Vertigo hasn't really been getting much attention since ages though. So I doubt Sheriff of Babylon will be.
>>78488003
Eight issues, I believe it's the only new Vertigo series that has a set amount of issues as Survivor's Club as an example doesn't list it as a mini.
Outside of ads in the back of DC titles or other Vertigo titles, I really haven't seen any of them advertised but I guess that's DC's marketing team just being terrible as usual.
>>78475028
I enjoyed TFA a lot more. Even though I don't care for Kylo (he wasn't imposing), I think they did more meaningful work with him they did with Ultron (who didn't end up being a threat anyway). There's also a more coherent plot and it isn't overstuffed with characters. Also characters aren't shit tier like quipsilver and "I'm a monster" Scar Jo.
TFA is slightly overrated and AoU is probably hated on too much. They're both mostly unimaginative but enjoyable, TFA retread a lot of plot beats and AoU's climax was worse than avengers one, which also featured a killswitch.
I liked superior spider-man, but I think it's vastly overrated by people who claim "the best spidey run in the last 5 years".
I will concede that the superior costume is hella fly though.
>>78486622
Kind of funny. Rule 63 threads are more and more common and they are some of the most productive and comfiesr threads on this board
>>78483757
Scott Pilgrim is full of gays, but never felt hamfistied, its obviously a kink of the author instead of politics
>>78484063
You can always start writting.
There are so mich webcomics that are mediocry but have large followings. Just find an artist, a lot of people just start writting when they are old. Saramago was more than 40 when he started.
Garth Ennis is the GOAT comic book writer and The Boys is his best work
>>78485124
>you gotta accept that people will often be "revealed" as LGBT because sexuall orientation isn't typically established first thing,
I think this is an issue as well, where a lot of times, a character being gay is used as a last minute reveal. It seems to be a hard thing to balance no matter how you do it.
>>78488216
The guy is surprisingly SJW despite the stuff he writes
>>78488024
Where do you want to see them advertised? In the back of Dark Horse comics?
>Age of Ultron was a better movie over the first one
>I want hand-drawn animation to make a return to mainstream movies
>Pixar and Disney are stale boring companies that, since 2010, keep rehashing ideas and people eat it up as 'original' and is slowly killing mainstream animation
>I'm getting real sick of super hero movies and the general audience that keep over-hyping them
>>78473077
How we save /co/ from becoming /tv/ 2.0, and make it be love again?
>>78485452
Marvel was supposedly going to release anthology collections. What the fuck happened to them?
>>78487239
You wouldn't listen to /v/ about comic books, would you?
>>78488315
Irrelevant. I wouldn't listen to /v/ about video games.
>>78488293
Report not only shitposters, but also people who fall for bait.
I'm 23 and I still prefer ice cream cake to regular cake
>>78488347
To further your point, shitposters haven't ruined the board, it's the people that reply to them despite the same weak bait being used.
I wish people would say SW: TFA instead of TFA on /co/. I keep assuming they are talking about Transformers Animated.
>>78488038
Wait, people liked Spock?
I dropped it when he completely erased his memory. Completely fucked what Remender was doing with that duality.
I don't care for superhero comics and I can't do serialized weekly shit since I'm too lazy to catch up unless it's online for free or it's a new IP
Gravity Falls sucks
I've learned to stop being a massive anti-SJW after realizing "hey, what's the point in this? I'm just giving more attention to the stupid people.". Now I just follow aritsts I like and don't dabble in any them vs us shit.
I like Natasha Allegri's art outside of Bee and Puppycat
I say I'm a fan of animation even though I can't be bothered to check out anything because I'm lazy/not interested in a certain show due to my own unfair judgments. If anything I listen to music more than anything else
On top of that, it genuinely dissapoints me how little well known internet animators know of animation or speak of animated movies/shows outside of the technical aspects. Mainly the Sleepycabin guys, because while I like their work, they genuinely seem uneducated or can't be bothered to check out new shows that they may like and bash them because of their nostalgia
I hate H3H3 and I want their cancerous fanbase to die (speaking as a former fan)
>>78488409
>Wait, people liked Spock?
People like it when generally bad people do good things in their own way.
>>78488152
Wallace is legit cool as fuck!
>>78488038
this is a fucking trace-over of a screenshot of the first spider-man
>>78473077
I liked ASM2 better than Winter Soldier
>>78473077
I legitimately believe Steven Universe is underrated. Obviously in this sense I'm not just referring to /co/
I think One Man Punch is genius.
>>78488216
>>78485797
As a digital only newfag, I don't buy anthologies. I also don't buy singles. All I'm interested in are reasonably sized volumes or, ideally, complete stories. Anything that I can buy and think "Wow I am glad I spent money to read this story." Capeshit is harder to get into because of this, whether that's perception or reality. Indieshit caters to my comic-buying preferences by providing the whole thing in one to five books.
>>78488227
Yeah, it's tough. There's a real desire to depict gay characters in fiction more naturally, but IRL you don't know if someone's gay unless they tell you or you see them doing gay shit. Coming out is still something of a reveal even outside of fiction, sexual orientation just doesn't come up that often. Like >>78488152 says, Scott Pilgrim pulls it off naturally because it's treated casually. Some characters are LGBT and otherwise they act like literally every other character - but that's also a highly sexual story about romance and relationships where it's inevitable that sexual orientation is going to come up. Not all fiction can casually introduce characters as gay like Scott Pilgrim can.
