Why have Marvel titles been so fucking awful for the last couple of years?
>>
they've sacrificed creative integrity and solely began riding on waves of hype
>>
>>79069237
>the last three decades
Fixed.
>>
>>79069298
Do you think their stupid decisions are gonna bite them in the ass the same way they almost bankrupted themselves in the 90s?
>>
Because they have shit writers. Half of their books are written by Bendis, Slott and bloggers like Kate Leth.
>>

Avengers with whor and kamala

>>79069237

they decided to make Guardians of the Galaxy several more times, ruining any kind of investment whatsoever.
>>
>>79069237
Sheriff of Babylon and Karnak are ok
>>
>>79069426
no, because of all the money they make in media outside comics, they'll either just stop publishing comics or reprint old shit as collectors items
>>

Because they can afford to be shit now. Star Wars has made the cape side of Marvel irrelevant.

>>79069529
It was the other way around in the 1980s.
>>
>>79069507
Yeah it is. I don't know why I thought it was Marvel for a second.
>>
The constant event cycle is the real issue. And business-wise you can't really fault them since events sell, but it keeps me from being invested in any of their books. Add in expensive floppies and now the recent trend of constant relaunches and there's little incentive to do anything but tradewait the few good books they put out.
>>
>>79069553
Sheriff of Babylon is good, so it cannot be Marvel.

Being a Marvelfag right now is suffering. 95% of the stuff they're putting out currently is unreadable and it makes me sad.

I guess the good part is that this forced me to read other publishers too and expand my horizon. Still wish they'd get better though, most of my favorite characters are from Marvel.

Marvel is on a roll right now. I hate these company war threads; but you cannot deny the facts:
>Disney is currently outselling Time Warner in the comic books division
>Star Wars is doing well for Marvel/Disney

Yeah, the reason why they are making so much money is because they are bad and it's totally not you whining they aren't pandering to you.

Because DC Comics is sssooooooo much better. Just look at how 'hip' and 'gritty' they fixed Superman.

Why would anyone want to support Marvel comics and their Fun books like Ms Marvel when they can buy DC's grimderp books and show how mature men in tights and underwear are (oh, right. I forgot. Tights are too silly for DC. Everything has to be super serious and edgy!). ;^)

I think he managed Robin War well. Or at least the parts he wrote were good even if making it a huge crossover kind of watered it down.

If he, Johns, and Snyder are actually working on an event together I'd expect that to be good as well. Johns is a huge bitch for editorial, but generally manages to be fun most of the time. I think they can pull it off.

DC is pretending to. They don't actually care about being progressive. That's why they had Batgirl beat up an LGBT then act disgusted when she found out. Or when they said Pakistan speaks Pakistanian. Or when they made that sexist rape culture cover with Joker and Batgirl. Or when they had Frankenstein decapitate Black Canary and see her head to his chest.

Yes, except it's now "in" for /co/ to shit on Marvel and praise DC, so DC pandering is GOOD pandering. Something that Marvel should do if they must feel like they have to pander.
>>
>>79070161
>They don't actually care about being progressive

Welp, time to buy some DC trades
>>
I think it's a few reasons.
1) Marvel is just filled with people with the exact same thinking. They never difference in opinions on what they like or don' t like. They all love the same things.
2) Most of the current Marvel writing team never read stories beyond the hyped ones. Look at how many of the new writers just like Kate Bishop, Chavez, Kamala, Carol and Drew as their favorite female heroes.
3) The guys who dictate the universe never change. Bendis has been leading everything for more than a decade, and everyone has to follow his ideas. And when they try to change it up with Remender, lots of resistence.
4) Movie synergy. Look at how fucking hard cosmic Marvel has fallen.
5) "It's comics! They're supposed to be absurd! XD!" this thinking annoys me to no end. You say something like Dinosaurs with laser beams on their heads and every single moron acts like comics are supposed to be this absurd medium and it kills any serious traction that tries to be created.
>>
>>79070161
>They don't actually care about being progressive
I'd say that their progressiveness is something that comes out naturally; e.g. 1980s Titans.
>>
I like to call this "Relaunch Fever". This involves a huge crossover event and a massive change in status quo to sell issues.

Say a wave of movies based on comic books start pouring out in popularity. The company of said movies and merchandise are bound to give the comic book a "face-lift" to appeal to a wider demographic. That is to say, things will be changed and moved around to attract potential new readers.
This has always been the case with older magazines and comics being shifted to #1 issues. Most of the time it doesn't sit well with the die-hard fans the company would mark it off as an alternate universe story.

Now companies have realized that they don't need the people who liked the franchises before they started over. They're the minority. They don't sell. It's all about what's "hip" and "fresh". We can't have Superman wearing underwear outside of his costume. It's silly looking.

Now that writers have gotten more ballsy and editors more lenient, mainline titles are free game. They can practically do whatever they want and if the title doesn't sell, then just hit the good ol "reboot" button and start over from scratch. There's no consequences to this and it's guaranteed to happen at least every decade.
Eventually we'll go back to buisness as usual. Peter Parker will be married to Mary Jane.
Superman will have red undies and no collar.
And Alan Scott will stop being so fucking gay.

Just sit back and watch them fan the flames. We'll have a good laugh about this in 2030 like we do now with the edgy EXTREME 90's.

While stock price is up right now, they have sacrificed long term storytelling for event based hype waves. Plus recurring #1 relaunches to artificially boost sales from the issue one effect.

This will come back to bite theme in the ass eventually. Plenty of stories have sprung up from LCS about customers being really put off from ANAD being yet another stealth relaunch.

The sheer similarities with the 90s boom/bust is really quite amazing. It would be really interesting to see how Marvel would have done if Disney had bought them out and the MCU hadn't happened. (You could make the case they would be on the verge of bankruptcy again.)

Nigga, do you even know who you're talking about? He's the master of Marvel, the king of comics, the future Editor-in-Chief. He has 2 shows based on his creations, Powers and Jessica Jones, and someday Mile Morales will be the next Spider-man in movies or TV.

Sorry mate, but Bendis is the King of Marvel. Those on Team Bendis will guard any and all storylines created by Bendis, or expand on it. I mean look at this shit >>77869998 →

Once he finally runs Marvel, we will enter an era of Bendis continuity. As long as there's a franchise with a movie or TV show, it won't be safe from Bendis Continuity.

He's the future Editor-in-Chief of Marvel, and the other writers at Marvel know it. The ones that aren't with him are off doing Star Wars.

Maybe you should actually try reading her book. Ms Marvel actually inspires teens that they aren't the fault for everything wrong in the world like republican adults say and that they don't have to blame themselves. She also lectured Sam on the importance of avoiding property damage.

I forgot the part where the comic was advertised as "What if Clark Kent was an edgy fratboy". Ohhhh right, it wasn't.

That applies to all of big2 really. That's why you should go out of big2 and explore other titles. Like when I'm not reading Marvel (like Ms Marvel, ANAD Avengers, Howard the Duck, and A-Force) I like to check out other stuff like Lumberjanes, RatQueens, Bitch Planet, and Sex Criminals.

Its really only Marvel's most current line up I'm finding myself totally devoid of interest in picking up any of their titles, the last event was really lack luster and most of the current titles have artists and writers I really don't care about or don't interest me, however not ALL their titles are garbage, I really dig The Visions and Weirdworld has picked up now that they got decent writers on it.

Yeah, it's all going from one hypable moment to the next. It's why we get events announced before the current one is finished. It's why annual events exist in the first place.

It's also why they pander so hard to certain online elements that may or may not (almost certainly the latter) actually read the comics. Or why they spoil character deaths on TV and news sites.

>>79069426
Sadly unless the cape movie bubble bursts and causes Disney to re-think Marvel's focus, they can basically do whatever they want with no regard to what fans think.

No the only things that sucked about it was the Evil Alternate Avengers arc and Kubert and Larroca. Everything else was great to phenomenal.
