On killing the Black guy
>I talked to everybody about it, and then the conversation turned around to the plus side and the minus side of the Marvel Universe becoming so diverse -- and it is so diverse, if you compare it to the first "Civil War." You literally look at the line up of the "Civil War" #1 cover and the "Civil War II" #1 cover, you can see the difference. Thor is a woman! Cap is African-American! Spider-Man is biracial. Everything changed.
>The mistake would be, then, to coddle the characters; don't let anything bad happen to them because of representation. But if we do that, we're not telling stories. Still, I can't help but be conscious of the fact that from the original "Star Trek" on up, the black guy in the red shirt is going to die, and everyone knows the trope of the African-American guy going into the ghost house first.

On the real reason why to kill the black guy
>We also had to deal with the fact that, for a completely different reason in the story, Rhodey took a hit in the "Civil War" movie. I actually didn't know where that was going to land in their final edit, so I had to take that into consideration as well.

On being the owner of Marvel comics
>The only thing that annoys me when people criticize stuff like this is, they think I'm sitting here full of whimsy and arrogance, and Marvel lets me do whatever the Hell I want. They think that I don't answer to anybody. I don't know what kind of job that is. The president answers to people. Who do you think doesn't answer to people? And what kind of whacked out creative relationship would I have with the universe if I was putting myself in a position where you couldn't speak to me? That's not what I want. The reason I signed up with Joe [Quesada] is, he told me my art sucked.

It usually is more fun, because you need to do really creative stuff to write a nice story, it even motivates, at least, it does for people like me (I enjoy fair hard games too, to be honest). It just is that people not creative enough or lazy, or people who clearly are working in to much stuff at the same time, that think continuity is an obstacle. I wonder which one ius the case: I think it may be that the has a hand in too many comics, and the fact that he's a bit of a one trick pony.

The whole "buzz" part is probably fake, but in terms of what we've seen from CMX and BleedingCool listings, it seems like there's less interest in CW2 than Rebirth, as a whole.

Whether that *actually* means there's overorders and readers aren't buying it is up in the air. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter if retailers keep believing that their Marvel books will somehow sell themselves.

Probably both.

The "clint kills banner" theory has spread to other places.
That said the Mary Jane one and Clint kills Banner one both seem possible to me. Especially since marvel has started to tease OMD being undone again so you just know they're pondering the possibility of killing off half the couple people want together again. And Bendis probably included MJ in IIM for a reason.

I think Bendis is pretty good at navigating this terrain in his interviews, whatever I think about his writing.

Most comics professionals are liberals but not SJWs (which I define here as being people who think representation of their politics is more important than any artistic considerations). Some of them get mad at the SJ side and lash out. Bendis is pretty good at dismissing their objections without sounding like he's getting angry. He condescends to them and pats them on the head, but he clearly doesn't care.

>>84103457
>How is this the same guy who fucking turned Ice Man gay just to pander to fangirls?

Because he liked that story, or at least didn't give a shit about Iceman any other way and thought this would make him "interesting."

Which is a common trait with Bendis, he can't think of anything better to do with characters so he'll do something sensational with them.

>>
What I want to know is why anyone cares anymore.

Remember when events were once-in-a-while things that permanently changed their world forever? Crisis on Infinite Earths culled dozens of unused Earths and made the focus on just one.

Meanwhile, Secret Wars came and went, the only major change being that some Ultimate Universe characters are folded into the 616 world. The main "nothing will be the same!" moments of Civil War II so far are War Machine, Shulk, and Banner all dying, and you know they'll come back after a year or so. And directly off the heels of THAT, we're getting ANOTHER reboot in the form of Marvel NOW, which will change absolutely nothing.

Marvel wants to make events to drum up publicity? Fine. But don't just sweep the ramifications under the rug. Go out of your comfort zone.

Bendis is master of justifying things. To himself, usually, but it does give him experience for social media and interviews. His writing is still lazy and he still doesn't read other people's work.
This whole idea of continuity as an obstacle course is ass-backwards too. Continuity should be a foundation you can build on, instead of something you build around and That you blow up when its in your way.

Bendis is lazy with a capital L, hell he's become even lazy when it comes to characters he claims to care about, the new issue for Mile's run is pretty much a blatant copy almost line for line of another scene from his own Ultimate Spider Man run where Peter gets his fingerprints scanned.

Like a lot of people who bitch about fan criticism, I don't think the criticism is that Bendis does whatever he want because he has that kind of pull. It's that editorial is lazy as to be nonexistant and thus he can get away with doing shit because there's nobody there who really wants to tell him "no".

I mean his tenure probably do0es give him more pull than other writers would get: I doubt whatever it is that caused Rememnder to drop the X-Men and Marvel (the current status quo, right?) would have been merely "suggested" to Bendis instead of forced on him or he would've just ignored it anyway but really the problem isn't Bendis himself. Bendis is merely the symptom of the disease that is bad, lazy, lax editorial.
>>
>>84106828
He's only thwarted a Celestial and Thanos so far. He doesn't seem to be interfering with anything they do. I was about to say he'd see it coming too, but Tony had no trouble kidnapping him.
Also, he's existed in-universe for like 2 weeks, max. I doubt they know about him.

Depending on how you define villain Magneto is in the know now and he's coming for that ass. Supposedly through Nightcrawler's assistance, but I think Kurt's pulling a bluff to get Magneto in a cell without resistance. Erik should have the common sense to ask Psylocke to scan him for that.

Bendis and continuity:

Fuck you. I have ZERO sympathy. Every other writer somehow manages to deal with continuity and make it work. Some, like based Ewing, revel in it and are masters of making continuity work for the story they want to tell. Bendis says, "wow, that seems hard." and just does whatever. Ya know what else? If you're on a book that's REALLY heavy with continuity, and it's giving you problems, shouldn't you move to another book? Instead of what he actually does, which is just ignore it.

>>84107783

Holy shit was Sam Cap two years ago? Jesus where does time go

>>84109935
Announced July 2014 and took the role in August 2014. Same with Jane becoming Thor.
>>
>>84109850
Around the time TWS came out.
It was pretty hamfisted when they had a page where not! Fox News talked about how Captain America shouldn't be black. Not as bad as Thor 5, though.

You forgot

>The mistake would be, then, to coddle the characters; don't let anything bad happen to them because of representation. But if we do that, we're not telling stories.
Being aware that you're using a shitty racial trope does not change the fact that you're using a shitty racial trope
>>
>>84109988
Because Fox News being mad about a black taking on the role of a white superhero is something that totally didn't happen in real life.

Jesus fuck /co is retarded.

>>84110510
paying attention to fox news is like paying attention to /pol/

you're giving retards attention they don't deserve.

Rhodey's death happened in the main book, and it's confirmed to be an MCU reference.

Boring Sentry & all the other so called "powerful heroes" did fuck all versus Thanos.

>>84109802

Yeah awesome tactics, it got someone killed & a Hulk incapacitated via friendly fire.

That's some mighty fine leadership there, Carol.

>>I've done stories where continuity is just an obstacle course, no matter where you go, and yes, I'm aware of continuity in other people's books.
>In Bendis' version of events Rider confesses to Quill that he loved Gamora before he sacrificed himself to save Quill and that's why he didn't tell her or anyone else what happened.
>Nova was dating Namorita at the time of the Thanos Imperative.
I'm aware that it can be dizzying to go through decades of continuity to know all the ins and outs of Marvel continuity, but this was 1 six issue comic event. That's how easy it would have been to fact check that shit. And he works for Marvel. I'm sure they could have procured the proper issues to read if he needed it.
This story could have even worked if Bendis had used Namorita as the girl who kidnapped Quill and started asking question. It would have even made more sense to have someone NOT on the team kidnap him.

They had three hours of prep according to their own dialogue, how did it fuck up that badly?
>>
>>84113286
They did pretty good. No civilian casualties, and Thanos didn't escape.
All things considered, I would consider it a successful mission until Iron Man threw a shit fit.

Dudes, I'm telling you it's that omnicient Inhuman kid, he set them up for that fall.
It's all the little plays within the big plays, he's the master manipulator and everyone's just dancing to his tune until he gets what he wants!
It's gunna be bad, man.

I think calling it literally "Civil War 2" is just so on the nose even dumb moviefags know it's a scam.

>>84113889
But moviefags don't know comics exist

Then who the fuck is buying all these godawful GotG books?

So... two thirds of /co/?

>>84113994
The same people who buy Slott's ASM, Whor, Harley Quinn, and Snyder's Batman and literally anything with a #1 in the title. People with bad taste.

Unfortunately, they make up most of the comic consumers.

>>84114652

Are you sure that's the take-away here? There's no other possibility? None?
Not even something involving just a bit of introspection on your part?

You have objectively bad taste.

>>84114906
Everyone else in the world is saying that icecream is good, you're screaming about how awful it is and you think it's everyone else who is wrong.
It's not the differing opinion that I find so foolish, it's the absolutist claim to personal authority in judgement.
FYI: That's how all crazy people started going crazy.

While I can respect your theory, that seems like far to much credit to give Bendis.
Something else that seems like too much credit for Bendis, the theory that Doc Samson is still dead, and his appearance in CWII 0 is just a delusion of Carol's mind as a result of her being overworked.

Dumping your job on another person is a risky move when it comes to financial security as your bosses are going to notice is some random scmuch does a much better job than you.

>>The only thing that annoys me when people criticize stuff like this is, they think I'm sitting here full of whimsy and arrogance, and Marvel lets me do whatever the Hell I want. They think that I don't answer to anybody. I don't know what kind of job that is. The president answers to people. Who do you think doesn't answer to people? And what kind of whacked out creative relationship would I have with the universe if I was putting myself in a position where you couldn't speak to me? That's not what I want.

I nearly died laughing

Other than Bendis they aren't really that bad. Bendis is apparently so fat that he can't properly tuck in his shirt.

Real leaders versus Thanos got the job done without getting their troops killed.

Carol is the Hillary Clinton of capes. Couldn't lead a girl scout troop.
>>
>>84113284
But anon didn't you read. Bendis is aware of continuity in other people's books. All that you're pointing out, he knew. All of it.

It's going to be really interesting to see the numbers on BP once it's not so novel and not being propped up by "order this many to get this variant" like it has been. I've seen retailers grumbling about tons of unsold copies left.
