I think Brian Michael Bendis is the best thing to happen to comics in the last twenty years. He's a fantastic writer and he's really made the medium accessible and friendly to a lot of different demographics. It doesn't hurt that he's really pushed for more tolerance and diversity in characters and stories as well.

I seriously do hate diversity in comics, just look at the comics written in the 50s and 60s, it used to be all straight white heroes

I love this image. It's so dumb. Like the part implying that Simon replaced Hal in any fashion, and the part where She-Hulk is just She-Hulk with a different artist.
>>
I dunno why /co/ hates Bendis. Alias and Daredevil were great, and I've heard nothing but good about Powers, USM, and Sam & Twitch.

He's spread too thin and it seems like he's phoning in his books. His Bendis speak is way more pronounced as a result.

At least that's how it was last time I read any of his books. I dropped everything he writes a while ago.

Most of those changes barely fucking lasted.

Ah, so he's not giving his 100% due to high workload? I can't really fault the guy, you can't rush art.
>>
>>81450771
>deadbeat Superman
Actually kill yourself. You like talking about the covers and press releases of comics more than reading them and talking about what actually happened in them. What kind of life are you living?
>>
>>81448302
A lot of these changes aren't even real changes, and fuck off if you don't like Conner's Cutefire.
>>
>>81451315
I think he should move on to editor. It's seems like a natural progression.

Wait shy is powergirl black? The rest is fine, a lot of the characters from before are still there so saying replaced doesn't really make sense...

Even when i can see the amounts of salt that this image was conceived on, it does make a point.

Often these days, publishers try to add diversity in a really superficial and cheap way, changing the skin tone of a character, their sexuality or gender will not build on its own a true relatable character for those audiences they try to reach.

Miles is a good example of trying to have actual character development, what they did to Iceman on the other hand was just some awful "hey we need to turn someone gay so it feels like we have a more diverse team" you can't just do that to a character in such a gratuitous and lackluster way, it's disappointing to the fans who were already there and makes the new audience leave because in the end they don't find actual substance on the character to relate to.

Oh yeah, Marvel also clarified that Herc "isn't" bi. Why does Marvel hate bisexual white men, so?
>>
>>81453693
because faggots irl hate bisexual so it doesn't give them the intended diversity points

No, there's a different character now called Power Girl who's in the Teen Titans. The original Power Girl is still running around.

Quite an accurate representation of reality, don't you think?

What's wrong with Starifre? Other than the shirt looking kinda dumb.

Also, isn't the woman below Alfred the doc who helped Bats get better after Bane busted his back?
>>
>>81454601
Reminder that Britain is 87% white while America is 63%

>>81454755
She's Alfred's daughter Julia, and she didn't replace him, they were around at the same time and still are

>>81454755
>Also, isn't the woman below Alfred the doc who helped Bats get better after Bane busted his back?

That's Shondra Kinsolving you're thinking of and I don't think she's been in any comics since the 90's

What gets me is that he knows his dialogue is repetitive.

Why have self awareness if your just going to ignore it?
>>
>>81454871
Because self-awareness is just another meme to Bendis
>>
>>81454822
>>81454853
Ah. I somewhat recently finally started reading Batman but I suddenly got tired of comics for the time being very shortly after so I'm not too caught up at the moment.
>>
>>81451701

Bendis doesn't even pay attention to his own editors.
