OP here, the problem is removing the man vs monster concept.

Hulk is meant to be a burden, not a party time.
Without that is just some random comic about a guy getting powers ans wrecking shit, it feels like an image title.

Maybe if they make it so he can't turn into a human while still having control of his mental state as a Hulk it would be more interesting because is still man vs monster but in a different way, adaptin into the monsters body instead of fighting it
>>
>>83572116
No the key to making a good character, is remove all depth, and make them a minority.

If you're a truly amazing writer you can add tampons for full literary genius status.

>>83572192

Did they wrote tampons into another marvel comic??
>>
>>83572116
Hulk was better in the original issues when it wasn't man vs monster but monster vs. society, the Hulk was fully in control of his mental faculties early on. It was a separate personality and he was irritated all the time, but the major struggle was the Hulk holding himself back against a society that baslessly hated him.

This is a Banned thing and not this Hulk. Banner's also wasn't always about that.


Hulk is just another character of the Big 2 that can be explored on thousand ways. No different than Miller or Morrissons's Batman being different.

If this upsets you, you should stop reading Big 2.

This hands down. Marvel managed to piss off the easily offended right-wing and the easily offended left-wing at the same time, while pleasing absolutely no one.

Civil War II is a distant second to that.
>>
>>83572236
Just Mockingbird so far. Unfortunately we still have a long way to go. We have to break the glass tampon ceiling.

How far is too far? 50% of books 100% we'll never know until we try.

I sure think that Superior Iron Man would have been much better if he gave tampons to everyone in the utopia he was building.

Since when has Namor been seen as a hero? He's always seemed to be a neutral character who did his own thing regardless of the ethics. Also cyclops with two eyes? How do you fuck up something so goddamn easy?
>>
>>83572294
Nice try General Ross, he didn't wreck a lot of buildings back then. In fact he spent a lot of time as a sad clown, just trying to isolate himself from society so no one would try to hurt him and so he wouldn't hurt anyone while defending himself.

>>83572353
I mean if you look at the mythology it's easy to get confused, because a Cyclops has two eyes. That's definitely how that works.

Yeah, the author was blatantly lying. You basically have to go against biology to do these things, which is possible but less likely. But who cares about facts these days, right? Current year and all that.

I read it and I don't think that mades up for the the man vs monster concept.

Its too wacky for their own good.

Its like that piece of shit Gwenpool comic that has her killing dudes while laughing and cracking jokes despite her not being crazy like Deadpool and then trying to have a ''sad'' scene about her feeling sad about somebody that she barely met for a minute dying because of her.

You can't have a wacky murderer/monster being sad because ''a live was lost!''/''I almost lost control of myself!!'' in the same comic, is just dumb

We're just calling you by your name, Megafag. Maybe if you were capable of coherent discussion without instantly flying off into an autistic rage then that name wouldn't have stuck but here we are.

You should check out Gwenpool. The concept may sound like shit, but the execution is great. You really can't go wrong with Hastings/Gurihiru.

First two issues of Mockingbird were actually pretty good. I don't know what caused it to go completely off the rails into shit-tier town that it did in the third issue. Hopefully that was just a one-off case of the writer getting it out of their system. Either way, I doubt it'll last past issue 6 so at least we won't have to deal with it for long.

Carol's ANAD book had a good first arc, but the writers are getting replaced by the Gages for the Civil War II tie-in arc, so that could very well derail the book into shit-tier again. Probably not as bad as KSD's, but I'm still pretty apprehensive about it.

Squirrel Girl, Civil War II, and Thor are beyond salvaging though.

he is right anon, stop calling everybody a faggot just because they don't like your shitty waifu
>>
>>83571822
Half of those are "I don't read comics, but will still form strong opinions on my misinformation."

So, my answer is Captain Marvel being pushed as a big "female superhero" brand and constantly failing. First off, it's obviously about keeping the name relevant after they stole it from DC way back when, and then it's this weird insistence/mandate that it HAS to be Carol, when trying to compete with Wonder Woman as a female icon might not mesh with her character, and that Marvel would get far more brownie points if they gave a shit about Monica Rambeau instead. Also, that Carol Corps idea never seemed to catch on, and now DC is trying their hand at it with their "Harley Corps."


Also, the butt hurt over Squirrel Girl will never not be funny. The ugly face was the one part of that book that succeeded exactly as the artist wanted. If you want to hate the book, find a real reason: like it being tepid garbage aside from a rare gag that might conceivably warrant a laugh.
>>
>>83573486
Don't you have some million dollar advertising contract you should be working on, Megafag?
>>
>>83573530
>Half of those are "I don't read comics, but will still form strong opinions on my misinformation."

Yeah, explain.
>>
>>83573530

comics are a visual medium too anon, hating a comic based on terrible artwork like Squirrel girl or terrible writing like Gwenpool is totally ok.
>>
>>83573516
Here's an idea. If you don't want people to keep calling you Megafag, then maybe stop being such a faggot?
>>
>>83573571
Sure, but hating a comic because it triggers your autism isn't OK, Megafag.

>>83571822
Squirrel Girl by far.

>>83573809
Not an ounce of a sense of humour in you. Her book is lighthearted enough for me to be sure that the artist was being funny with the visor.
>>
>>83572353
Do you think the people who work at Marvel actually read or even look at comics?
>>
>>83573676
You and your beloved megafag should chase eachother out of town. Or the board in this case.
>>
>>83573961

not the same anon, but the artist fuckep up.

Cyclops has one of the most classic comic book designs with his visor, you don't fuck up that!
>>
>>83573566
Hulk is building up to the inescapable misery of the traditional Hulk. The light hearted facade is just Amadeus' hubris before he finally fucks up. Or it was that way the last time I looked in on it.


Captain Hydra's controversy is solely from people who have clinically short memories, and forget that the industry has been pulling stunts like this for decades. Such people are likely MCU fans, as a film franchise has no need economic need for cheap controversy anywhere near to the level as publishing comics would, and a successful film franchise creates an illusion of a more intentional and developed sense of continuity, which would make a fan confused when faced with the actual patchwork and messy continuity that happens in the actual comics.

Hating Gwenpool is a meme, and calling her a cash-in make it sound like you still think the character is an alternate Gwen Stacy, like Spider-Gwen.

I got nothing on Jane-Thor, but she's still around


Civil War 2 is probably shit for obvious reasons, but I really don't care.

>>83573571
You have the wrong definition of "terrible artwork." It's mostly consistent, and it reasonably conveys what it needs to visually. You just don't find certain choices visually appealing. It's fine to have that opinion, but you're just being petulant.

You can dislike something, but disliking it doesn't mean it's terrible. Calling it terrible when it's passable, is just grasping for justification for your opinion beyond just having the opinion in the first place.

Good job being a manchild. Also the burden of proof isn't on me, I'm saying the art is adequate, not stellar. You're the one pushing any kind of value judgement.

Hulk is actually halfway decent.
Whor is shit, but will snap back.
Squirrel girl actually sells to SOMEBODY, I dunno who.
Mockingbird is practically forgotten already.
This carol run will be forgotten, and we'll eventually have Captain Kamalla.
Last I checked, Gwenpool is seriously good. Stupid concept. Good execution.
Captain nazi reads like a stupid obvious stunt. Who cares.
Civil war is stupid as fuck, messes with multiple books, and also features Carol being useless.

I'm going with Civil War.

OP, I'd also include the useless inhuman push, and whatever the fuck is going on with the X men well before Hulk or Gwenpool.

You give Ryan North far, FAR too much credit. That dude has always been a third-rate tryhard "quirky" webcomic writer and that's exactly what Squirrel Girl reads like: a tryhard "quirky" third-rate webcomic. And yes, I am qualified to talk about this, as I write a second-rate webcomic so I'm a fucking expert. No one in this thread has any bid to question my wisdom.

But the problem is not that they are making these different stories. The problem is they are changing their whole line to try and fit them. True diversity is diversity of thought. I want different genres. I want different stories. I want them to test different ideas. Appeal to more people.

Instead we are getting books filled with more pop culture quotes than an average TBBT episode. All cutesy and full of jokes. They are beginning to bet all their chips on a single number and they are waiting for the ball to land.

It is dangerous. In this current climate I could never see an amazing run happening. And that is the truth of it. Think of all those great Marvel runs. From Claremont X-Men to Frank Miller Daredevil. Even the early 2000s had some stellar runs. Ed Brubaker on Cap was killer.

Their runs now are so forgettable and samey. They won't be remembered. They are fast losing quality by seeking only one sot of fan.

Marvel has one or two stellar runs hidden in the mounds of shit they push out

Those runs don't sell at all but what're you gonna do
>>
>>83577362
Bobbi Morse first appeared in 1972, Storm first appeared in 1975.
>>
>>83577414
Stellar runs are often born of those taking a chance to do something different.

Right now Marvel is all about conforming to a knew status quo. Difference in skin colour of heroes but not difference in thought or taking the chance to do something different.

All it means is bland conformity. Good runs should be controversial. People constantly bitched at Brubaker for making a Bucky that killed people during WW2 flashbacks. But it was a fantastic run.

You can never please everyone and right now it seems like they are trying to please everyone in this whole new group instead of challenging things.

Gwenpool and Cho Hulk have been at least arguably fun, and Captain Marvel is merely forgettable and bland without being actively bad like the others.

>>83577566
IDK what the latest meme consensus on it is, but I think Karnak has been pretty good so far.
>>
>>83577591
Controversy in itself doesn't create a good story. Often those stories use controversy as a cheap ploy.

The longivity of creating controversy is to also create a decent story so that things that offend begin to offend less so. Bland;y making a story with Cap as Hydra when everyone can guess where it will go is not the same.

Do you understand what I mean?

>>83577566
I haven't mentioned any of those things. Sure some books can be enjoyable.

Will any of those books be remembered in a few years? Compared to some runs of the past? Most likely not. Don't take offence to that. Just saying that their quality while good among some things out now does not mean they are worthremembering.

>>83577727
I read yesterday the 4 chapters of Karnak that have come out until now, and while the story is certainly thrilling, I would have expected it to be considered one of those "Mature comics for mature people like me", with the attitude the protagonist has

Also I will never not find retarded the fact that, since he can see the weak points of everything, he's supposedly able to make a reinforced door fly out of its hinges just by touching the right spot

I don't think they COMPLETELY ignore it. it's just warped and pushed aside. that's what they're going for with JaneThor, but it comes across as bizarre, because they haven't explained it. Carol needs that element too. it's implicit in her current book, but implicit isn't enough.

Also: they're not pushing Carol as Marvel's Wonder Woman. That's JaneThor. They're pushing Carol as Marvel's Superman.

It's mostly the fact that the door was sent flying with what (at least seemed to me) just the touch of two fingers in the right place.
Obviously it could just be that they weren't able to express the strength and speed of the hit that's a problem western comics generally have, but even if we accept that I don't really see someone, outside of really strong guys like the Thing or Hulk do something like that with a reinforced steel door

But that was really just a secondary thing, nothing that would damage my enjoyment of the comic

Are you an idiot? I never said controversy has anything to do with quality.

What I am saying is that trying new things and new ideas often breeds controversy. A lot of the best stories were not born of the status quo but out of different ideas. And it is because of that these runs end up controversial.

Something that has quality does not need to be controversial but it does sometimes end up as such.

Some think tampons are sex toys. Others think people can control their periods - either that actual menstruation, or holding it in like pee.

A lot of politician health knowledge is based on incorrect info they were taught decades ago and they never bothered to relearn. That's part of how you get politicians debating against abortion while claiming that woman's body will naturally "shut down" a pregnancy if it's an unwanted one.

It's pretty great for what it is. The comic is aimed at girls and even using the word tampon is heresy in modern entertainment. The same way if you spoke about your period, etc. I'm glad it's in this comic aimed at girls rather than say, Vision.

I might have been able to put up with it longer if the art wasn't so hard to stomach. Like, it's obnoxious, sure, but mostly in the way that Squirrel Girl always is. Whatever. Those faces just give me the creeps sometimes though.

I saw Cho cameo in Moongirl. Dude was an asshole. Interesting direction for them to go with a Hulk, I don't read his comic but that could be cool.

Thor... I couldn't make it past the first comic or two. There'd have to be some big shifts in tone for that to change my mind, and I certainly don't feel right giving money to it.

Gwenpool's fun, still new, interested to see where it goes with its concept.

Haven't read the rest. Civil War's going to be a trainwreck of varying quality no matter what happens, so we'll have to ride that wave to the end.

Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

I feel like Marvel wanted to embrace what made them so successful in the first place, which was selling books to teenagers. They went as SJW as they could and are still waiting for that to work, but what they don't realize is that today's youth don't want to, or can't pay for anything, so they'll download their books for free and then complain loudly about what they don't like.

In a sane world, the backlash over "anti-Semitism" would open their eyes even a bit. Best case scenario Marvels plan is to push away all their old audience and replace them with people who will stop paying at the drop of a hat.

And even pushing the SJW aspect I wish they'd at least hire someone with an ounce of talent or respect for storytelling.
