What happened, /co/? There was so much hype for this series before it came out, what went wrong?
>>
>>81282124
Nothing wrong, it's a good series.

>>81282124
Other than sales, which are usually shit for good or great series, nothing.

Holy fuck I didn't think it was that bad.
>>
>>81284068
woah woah woah, how the fuck did it go from 31,000 to 18,000?!
>>
>>81284068
I think that drop was because they had distribution problems.

If that is not the case then is because they stopped focusing on the gays and started to pay more attention to the browns
>>
>>81284068
Damn

>>81284143
Probably distribution problems?

I dunno.

SJWs control the tumblr and twittersphere, but they don't buy comics, they just post panels to get hearts n shit.

Hype means nothing. No one wants to read about a comic about everyone being gooder than Superman and smarter than Reed Richards and having soap opera-esque love affairs while they effortlessly save the universe by shitting all over canon.

There was a crash with the truck holding a lot of Marvel comics.
>>
>>81282124
It's living up to the hype for me. What's the problem?

Of all the complaints you could levy, you pick the one that doesn't apply to a single Ewing comic and certainly not this one.

>>CBR gushes about how awesome Wiccan and Hulkling are through Young Avengers.
>>America Chavez shows up.
>>CBR stops caring about Wiccan and Hulkling, even dismiss NA now to follow Chavez and Kate.

Shit Saturday morning Disney art.

>expecting someone that seriously whines about sjw conspiracies to actually read comics.

These people dont care for comics. They just want to fight a culture war on a new front.
>>
>>81285944
You say that, but then these characters end up in movies.
>>
>>81285569
You're talking about that like it will ever be addressed outside of the comic and like it won't be undone by issue 12.
>>
>>81286230
Yea cause it's not like a lot of writers these days are SJWs themselves who are injecting their awful politics into the books or anything...
>>
>>81287063
You see what you want to see to justify your pathetic little Culture War. It's almost sadder that you didn't start "caring" about comics until the SJWs supposedly did.

That wasn't in New Avengers, it was in Ultimates.
>>
>>81287063
Or writers becoming SJWs or are you just being made aware that comics have always reflected the social commentary of the current time?

Would you say Stan Lee was a SJW if he created the Xmen today?

I refuse to believe anyone actually gives a fuck about squirrel girl

People really did not like Sandoval's art, nor the style of which he drew certain characters. I personally love it, but the second someone else did the art for NA, a lot more people favored it.
People aren't fond of how the series doesn't take itself too seriously without being too over-the-top in how it doesn't take itself too seriously.
People don't like the characterization of Wiccan, Squirrel Girl, or Maker. As with the previous thing, some people don't like the "Saturday morning villain" feel he seems to be going with.
The team is filled with people that no one except their fans care about, said fans generally wanting a specific thing.
Personally, I find that it's kind of too fast paced. Not as in it's going super quick, but I feel like it needed more time for certain things than it's actually being allowed to have.

I do. In fact, if it wasn't for this book, she wouldn't be in anything good.

Sad for them, because that's my absolute favorite part

You mean reality?

>or are you just being made aware that comics have always reflected the social commentary of the current time?
The difference being the """"social commentary"""" of the current time is almost entirely made up of lies and bullshit. No one is oppressed today who was oppressed when the X-Men first dropped.
>>
>>81282124
...well, it's not good.
but then again, marvel nao sucks
>>
>>81284834
Wiccan and Hulkling aren't women enough.
