What went wrong?
>>83727744
They fell for the reboot meme
>>83727744
They still make stuff that isn't Batman or closely related to Batman.
>>83727744
Same thing that happened to Marvel: They got taken over by their own fans. They're businesses run by people who shouldn't be running businesses. It's a snake eating its own tail. Fans shouldn't run the business, they don't have objectivity to know quality, or ambition to create anything other than what they already like.
Doing diversity and not "diversity" the daft twats.
>>83727744
They got a shittier logo and then a bland logo
>>83727854
Eh, Mangakas all tend to be big manga fans, and Moore, Morrison, Miller and most of the 80s writers were big fans
>>83727854
So what you're saying is the have jew deficiency?
>>83727744
Rode Batman too long. let Batman get all grim and moody. Decided everything needed to become as dark as batman had become. No more fun.
>>83728203
I wonder if you fucks have read any of the rebirth tittles, considering that not even batman looks fucking dark
By and large themes 52 was horrible, but DC You was a slight improvement and Reborth seems to have a lot of worthwhile titles. Not to mention DC's gigantic catalogue of amazing works. I don't get why people on this board are so fucking negative.
Too many reboots
too many Crisis
>>83728615
>too many Crisis
They only had Two reboots, for real, everyone knows that infinity crisis was a fucking retcon and so was a stuff like Zero Hour, the only real reboot was COIE and Flashpoint
>>83727744
Tried too hard to be Marvel.
>>83728670
Too many reboots and retcons
>>83728603
DCYou was better than rebirth though.
you tell me
>>83728734
It's not their fault people only want to read bat books.
>>83728734
Hey, it's not DC's fault the only thing for them that has sold in the past is Batman and related properties.
Maybe things will be different in the Rebirth era, though.
>>83728734
What's even worse is Batgirl got the #50 bump. #49 was 24,730
>>83728734
maybe if all the people that whine about Batman actually bought stuff things would be different
>>83728718
>DCYou was better than rebirth though.
Oh boy this, yeah because the super line was soo good and stuff like doomed was great right ? be real, the only worthwhile thing there was Midnighter and Omega man
Even making Ivy and Harley confirmed lesbos didn't help?
>>83727744
Not much right now. I've enjoyed every Rebirth book and even the most heinous DC titles (Earth 2 ) are improving
>>83728797
>maybe if all the people that whine about Batman actually bought stuff things would be different
But Batfags are the only ones buying things.
>>83728734
All this tells me is that Star ars is more popular than capes are in their on medium. The people who said BvS should have made as much as Force Awakens were delusional. Even if it was a fucking master piece it would have fallen shy by about 500 mil. Avengers will never match Star Wars either for that matter
>>83728845
Harley is more popular now than ever. What the fuck are you talking about?
>>83728845
Nope. All it did was cause current fans to just changeup the books they read without buying anything more.
>>83727854
Please go back to the John Byrne forum.
>>83728825
Martian Manhunter was also good. But yeah, I think /co/ was more in love with the idea of DCYou rather than the DCYou titles themselves. There were honestly better C and D listers books in the New 52
>>83728825
And Prez, All Star section eight, Martian Manhunter, Robin, Constantine, Seeley Squad, continuing series like Valentine's Catwoman and Grayson. Paktion comics was good as well, until the wrath reveal.
Enjoy your editorial mandated movie ads with rebirth.
>>83728991
The problem was that all the great stuff was already over when the other tittles were reaching 12, stuff like Section 8 was over, Prez was over and the only reason omega man even finished was because of Didio being based as always
>>83728880
>Batfags are the only ones that buy comics
does this make everyone else casuals?
or are they too cool to pay for stuff and then complain about people paying for things?
>>83729050
>editorial mandated movie ads
Oh yeah, because The whole Lex being superman and Batman with the Gotham spirits is totally movie shit right ?
>>83728718
The Rebirth books haven't even started yet...
>>83729050
>Constantine
And everyone was shitting on Seeley squad and Valentines catwoman was pre DCYou so theres that, and you are delusional if you think Pak action was that good, the artwork was the best thing there
>>83729107
>everyone was shitting on Seeley squad
that never happened.
>Valentine's Catwoman
I already said it was continued from before DCYou.
>>83729162
You missed the first issue storytime where everyone was saying that it was movie synergy shit or something ? and everyone pretty much said that it was average
>>83729183
Because the first issue wasn't that great, and was just a setup with a twist at the end. It picked up in the second issue and the storytimes from second issue have been positive.
>>83729271
i don't really remember that part, but hey if you think so thats actually good
>>83729315
That's because all the shitposters usually go to Marvel storytimes.
>>83727854
>DiDio and Lee
>shitting on DC legacy
>fans of anything
>>83729990
Tbh, Dan is pretty bro considering all the shit he helps keep afloat like omega man and Jonah Hex
DCYou was DC trying to be Image and pretty much failing besides a few good things. Rebirth is (hopefully) DC trying to be DC again.
>>83730068
He can't afford not to be.
>>83730068
Fair enough, but the point is that they never thought of this as fans. They were acting precisely as executives running a business, and it backfired.
Lol DC Rebirth was May's best selling comic. Try harder op.
>>83727854
This times ten. People who only read comics are the worst people to write comics.
>>83727854

>>83729050
Ya can't believe they stole the man of steel plot line where superman died and then post-crisis superman came back but it was always post-crisis in reality so who knows what his deal is.
Those hack frauds
