>writing in the endemic new millennial style, with modern slang that'll be dated by next year shoved in at random to be trendy, and shoved words/assumptions into the reader's mouth just so the writers can shit on said assumptions/words openly for their own smug gratification
>buck-toothed black lady who's the main character's boss and effeminate gay man who's her friend shoved in for diversity points, since the star is a white straight(?) girl and that sets off all kinds of progressive alarm bells, and the only thing worse would be a straight white guy
>attractive/skimpy clothing immediately dismissed as "EWW GROSS GET IT AWAY", written in that special way which only a man who's deathly-afraid of offending women and has never touched a tit before in his life can write

This is definitely a modern Marvel comic made by a bunch of tumblrites hired because they work for peanuts, alright. Like the "let's just have Japan animate everything while sending them outlines" era of cartoons, except the result is boring crap rather than a mixed bag of good and bad.

On the bright side, at least someone held Kate Leth down by her filthy unkempt hair and forced her to practice anatomy, until she actually started drawing human faces and bodies which follow basic anatomy with stylization and don't look like complete shit, rather than horrible misshapen meat blobs. At least that's something good this has going for it.
>>
>Reading a comic written by someone that bragged about sexually molesting their underage sister

Nope.
>>
>>79158838
Leth isn't the artist bruv.
>>
>>79158829

That sums up Leth's writing to a T.

I'm not one of those people who'll dump on her personal life being a trainwreck, but her writing is such a bore.

Just an absolute bore.
>>
>>79158780
Well there's some actual conflict so that makes it significantly better than the first issue.

I like the art, and have nothing wrong with the premise. I even liked some of the jokes in the previous issue and this one.

My issue was that, in classic Leth fashion, there was no conflict or tension or anything. It was just a bunch of characters faffing about and being quirky around each other.
>>
>>79158829
It is, but at least things are actually happening, which is a step up from Leth's other work
>>79158838

I hate "defending" this book, but If you're refering to this scene >>79158504
I think the gross comment comes from the fact that the armpits on the dress are "stained", by what I assume should be sweat, but looks more like magical sparkling soda.
>>
>>
>>79158829
I was chatting about this with a friend of mine who's very into progressive comics but isn't into this, and she made the point that Leth tends to substitute references to something suitably nerdy (but not too hard core) for actual humor. Also, cute isn't bad, but it's not a virtue in and of itself, it doesn't carry a plot or characterization.

Kate Leth has a really nice voice. It has a good timbre and her words are clear, clipped and direct. Regardless of anything about her work or personal life I would definitely hire her to voice a commercial selling like, bleach or car seats or some shit.

It's just - eh.

Its not bad, its slightly cringe-worthy, the art is fine but lacks any sense of originality, and theres no tension or sense of conflict or any well developed characters. Ms Marvel manages to be progressive and still be really interesting to read.

There seems to be an audience for this kind of nice, safe, comic, - I'd say its sister comics are Howard the Duck and Squirrel Girl - but its not for me. I think sometimes people want safe representation over actual decent storytelling with interesting ideas. If Vision gets cancelled before this then fuck Marvel.
