I think Marvel is at their best when their stories are irreverent and DC is better at "important" stories.

>>84459650
Holy shit, it's almost as if the comic "industry" is creatively bankrupt and we're all forced to deal with it now that our golden calves have been slaughtered.

Who gives a fuck if Tony Stark is gone? He's a garbage character who hasn't been interesting as a hero in over a decade.

Is this what you tell yourself in Snyder threads?

>>84459908
I only read Court of Owls, and I thought it was okay but had a strange ending. Not sure what that has to do with my opinion being that Marvel generally executes irreverent comics better than DC, and DC generally better executes more serious comics.

Jesus Christ, her gun is like a fucking Escher drawing. There's like 4 different competing perspectives on it, each without any clear idea of what the fuck a gun like that even looks like.

The carrying handle for one.
The front is right, but the back looks like it attaches to the side.

I don't even know what that jazz is with the front sight.
>>
>>84460068
How about the fact that the sights, u/l receiver, and grip are so monstrously fucked up in size, shape, perspective, and placement that it's almost like it was drawn blind.
>>
I actually enjoy Gwenpool. I like dumb/silly shit, though. Also, how is she a tumblr-y character other than just being a grill and dressing in pink? Her comics make actual jokes instead of going OH U CAN BEAT ME UP BECAUSE GIRL POWER or MEN R SCUMMOS. Plus, who doesn't like M.O.D.O.K. acting like a giant baby in a metal diaper?

The only thng that bothers me is her left hand on the barrel. This isn't great art, but the rifle is the least of my grievances.

This is a medium where maybe 1 in 5 artists can draw a convincing dog or cat, and they see dogs and cats all the time.
Fuck, it'd be generous to say 1 in 10 can draw a small child or toddler that doesn't look like a Downs syndrome midget.

And you want to complain about small details on military firearms? Be glad it isn't some monstrous Lolfield cannon.
>>

Thback does look worse than tha the front, mi us her hand. But still, the picture (hopefully) is a small/quick panel. She does look pretty bad here, but the last issue of hers had appealing art.

Do we need more stories with Stark, Wolvie, and the Fantastic Four? I don't care for Gwenpool but I'm ready for old ass characters to retire and have been for years.

I'm more interested in what the Marvel world would be like 50 years after Iron Man first showed up, instead of sliding timescale acting like it's only been a few years somehow.
>>
See, I never got the whole "Oh this is being published instead of this" thing. I mean, if Gwenpool wasn't being made, it's not like a new Fantastic Four ongoing would magically be drafted.
>>
>>84460575
Yes, there really are people that think you can eke out another 600 or so stories about Peter Parker trying to find a steady girlfriend.
>>
Singer thinks he can have Magneto raging over Auschwitz into the 21st century, so anything is possible.
>>
>>84460561
Still, what's the doohickey on the barrel?
Is it some kind of carrying handle like a minigun, or some kind of grenade sight?

Well she's a joke character so funny should be part of that formula.

>>84460548
This is also an era where you can get a Google SketchUp 3D model of any gun in existence, for free, instantly, and rotate it into proper perspective within 15 seconds, screencap it, overlay it in a Photosohop layer, and just trace it with the character holding it. It's not 1967 where an artist pencils 12 issues a month, these people barely manage a single issue in 30 days, they can take the time to make things look halfway decent.
>>
>>84460741
if i was an artist id fuck up guns on purpose just to get that /k/ autist rage

Well yeah, it has a female lead. It would be too unrealistic to expect good jokes.

She is being published over what now?

>Iron Man

I thought he had International Iron Man going on right now?

>Wolverine

Sniktbub is dead, but as for books we got Laura as ANAD Wolverine and Old Man Logan

>FF

Reed and co. are currently fucking off somewhere in the whereververse, the only FF member I see around in books right now is Johnny.
>>
>>84460872
>the only FF member I see around in books right now is Johnny.
and Ben.
>>
>>84460606
Because if the books you don't care about weren't published they would totally publish the one you want, anon. It's obvious

For example if DC didn't publish that stupid Nightwing I would totally be able to read a Ravager solo book

>Stark
Yes. Strangely enough, Stark has the most potential for an interesting story out of most singlular heroes in the Marvel universe. Volume 3 and 4 of Iron Man was great, and Volume 5 had it's moments in the beginning. Superior Iron Man was fantastic. His problem is when he gets a shitty writer like Gillen or Bendis, he's REALLY fucking horrible.

I realize this was from a Gillen book, but I don't care, I thought it was kind of cool

>Wolvie
I can't even think of where they could possibly go or do with Wolverine at this point. Fuck, I've never really found him interesting outside of his interaction with other characters.

>Fantastic Four
I'd love to see more Richards family shenanigans, but beyond that, I've never really really kept up with the FF much outside of crossover events, so I'm not really in any position to judge them.
>>
>>84460863
Aren't drugs illegal though?
>>
>>84459587

Marvel always cared the most about what the youngsters do and think nowadays and they try to reflect that metaphorically in superhero, or at least superpeople stories. It's one thing that separates them from the more traditional DC.

In that sense Gwenpoole does what Marvel has always done. The success of Gwenpoole or other "meme"-characters is a consequence of this being the rhythm of the times (for youngsters).
>>
>>84459587
I asked this once but I ask it again, who does anyone fucking stand reading Marvel comics anymore? Anyone who actively shits upon themselves, their fans, and their history, and even make it a business policy to outright angry people for sales does not deserve anyone's patronage.
>>
>>84460370
This. Her book is good and it lands with me.
Not sure what kind of punchline people are expecting here.
>>
>>84460783

>>84459587
Do you honestly think gwenpool is worse than bendis iron man? Or any of the Fantastic Four runs in the last couple of years?
>>
>>84462231
I assume you mean how, not who

and the answer is by ignoring anything being written by Bendis and Slott, and by ignoring their all-ages books

She's as bad as them, fuck off.

The comic is trash and have zero qualities, anytime you're called out for reading shit you just whine about waifus.
>>
>>84459587
I'll never understand why this character gets threads every fucking week saying how shit she is.
I mean, Squirrel Girl and Hellcat combined don't get that, and they're a lot worse.
>>
>>84464015
the best part is the gun is drawn so that it could accept a proper bayonet, but gwen probably doesnt own one.
>>
Why did she have Doctor Strange erase her from her universe so she could have an identity? Why not ask Batroc to hook her up with some random criminal that could give her what she needed?
>>
>>84464035
It's mostly by one guy. We call him Megafag because his initial argument for why Gwenpool sucks is that her legs resemble Mega Man's.
>>
>>84462701

DESU i feel like people are just gonna praise the movie to make "SEXIST CIS MALE" Scum, and my fear is that it's just gonna generate a ton of shitty movies that tumblr will eat up because it has a woman on it nopw
>>
>>84462231

I stopped with Marvel expect for Punisher which doesn't seem to have had any "LE CIS MALE SCUM" shit in it yet, I've been reading a shit ton of old DC and Rebirth Issues since i'm switching over
Also reading Saga and other Indie comics, Thanks Marvel for being so shit that you showed me how much better things are when you stop being a one track fanboy
>>
>>84459587
I don't mind gwenpool, but in ten years she's going to be obscure whereas tony, logan, and the f4 will still be relevant, or at least better remembered than gwen poole.

>>84464035

I thought people here liked Gwenpool it's not bad and better then a lot of trash being pumped out by marvel. I think people just don't like new female characters and refuse to accept them because of tumblr
