She's from an alternate universe where, among other changes, Gwen got bit by the spider instead of Peter. Peter, out of jealousy over not having powers turned himself into her universe's Lizard. They fought and Peter died and Gwen is blamed for it. Gwen feels guilty over it, especially after Spider-Verse when she sees that in almost every other universe it's Pete who gets powers, so she feels almost like she stole his birthright or something.

Went to four different Walmarts looking for Spider-Gwen. Three of them didn't even have Marvel Legends and the other had shit from older waves.
Might bite the bullet and get her on ebay. Only 10-15 dollars more I guess.

Evening fellow Marveldrones

We got incoming.

>inb4 incoming already came
>>
>>5584388
50,000-30,000. Squirrel Girl is finally dipping to around 15,000 a month, but apparently more than makes up for it in ridiculous trade sales. Both are also among the highest selling trades.

They're up there with the biggest of the big Marvel books right now, and only really trumped by Star Wars and Spider-Man cash cows. Most books seem to float around 20k these days.
>>
>>5584385
Squirrel Girl has been below cancellation numbers since like issue 3, and I'm pretty sure Ms. Marvel has been averaging 30k, what are you talking about? Or are you basing that entirely on the numbers from that comixology sale?
>>
>>5584406
The ANAD relaunch Ms. Marvel held its numbers longer than the initial one; it's currently floating around 30k, but nearly every other book Marvel is publishing is in the 15-20k range.

It doesn't help that 4 bucks a pop gets pretty fucking prohibitive if you want to keep up with more than a handful of books. I try to pick up trades for stuff I really like, but my wallet doesn't have room for comics and toys.

>>5584442
I'm A-OK with foes ending when it did. There's nothing worse than a something cool overstaying it's welcome and becoming that thing you kind of resent.
>>
>>5584449
Is Overdrive in it?
>>
>>5584455
Not yet, but at this rate, eventually. Beetle and Grizzly are recurring characters, and the tone feels just like it.
>>
>>5584453
The edgy shit wasn't the main problem, the inflation due to collector bullshit which made them think they could abandon everything but the direct market was the problem. It made it so the only way new people could get into comics was if they spontaneously decided to walk into an LCS.
>>
>>5584407
>15k-20k

Holy shit are you serious? I collected comics a few years ago and under 20k was what the shit/niche comics sold.
Damn, it really does seem like it's dying.
>>
>>5584482
I remember someone crunched the numbers in a thread on /co/ and found out One Piece outsold the entirety of american comics in 2014.
>>
>>5584482
There's a reason those relaunches happen once a year now; the comic market can barely sustain itself anymore.

Shit's fucked, man.
>>
>>5584493
One of the major publishers needs to grow a pair and start putting shit back on newstands and stuff. The only thing you'll find outside an LCS or bookstore these days is Archie.
>>
>>5584497
Marvel had a really cool initiative last year to put out $5 trade paperbacks in Walmarts. The first Brubaker Cap trade, some Big Time Spidey, and Bendis trash Avengers and Guardians. They also tried a Shonen Jump style magazine for their tumblr-pandering books at Barnes and Nobles, which I would've thought would work.

Would love to see them get their shit together at traditional retail. Do what DC is doing and get the price down to 2.99 across the board, and put that shit in people's hands- Superheroes are more popular than they've ever been; just fucking let people buy them.
>>
>>5584497
My local Gamestop has some Star Wars and GotG comics.
>>
>>5584504
They did an anthology? How much was it?
>>
>>5584515
$15 for 6 issues, I think.

Is Spider Gwen any good or just fapbait?
>>
>>5584607
She was originally just a cover gag, from the month where most of Marvel's books had Gwen variants.

But now Gwenpool is a girl named Gwen Poole from outside the Marvel Universe. She's a comic book reader who was thrown in the MU after Secret Wars. She knows that the only way to survive and not be an expendable background character is to become a popular hero, so that's what she sets out to do. Her costume's tailor made a white and pink Deadpool costume based on her last name.
>>
>>5584642
It's an extremely mediocre book. Probably the worst out of the entire Spider-Family line-up right now, except for Spider-Woman.
>>
>>5584657
That sounds really dumb. Like I guess it could be interesting but I doubt Marvel's got anyone worth a damn on it so it's probably just retarded isn't it?

Yeah, I would kill for another Kaine book. He's coming back Slott's "dead no more" event coming up, (the story is about a ton of old Spidey characters coming back from the dead like Gwen, Uncle Ben, Jean Dewolf, Captain Stacy, etc, and it's weird Kaine is there since we already knew he was alive) but it's Slott so it'll probably suck.

I'm just glad my favorite book at Marvel right now, Carnage, is still doing pretty good with issue 5 selling at 27,160. It's also great to see Eddie with a symbiote again.

Ya, the book's about Carnage, but it's more of a horror book, and focuses on the team hunting him, of which Man Wolf and Eddie Toxin are a part of. Eddie's also rocking an "Agent Toxin" look now. I don't mind the look, but I dislike the colors.

Yeah I personally think Spider-Gwen as a comic has a bunch of neat ideas, they're just not utilized to their full potential.

These books sell like shit cause Marvel is saturating the market with too much spider-books. Seriously, it feels like almost half of the stupid MU has powers that are "spider-like." Peter Parker is no longer unique. Marvel needs to kill off all of these Parker-wannabes and go back to just Peter, Spider-Woman, and unfortunately Gwen.

Carnage is fantastic

Venom Spaceknight, despite not being as good as Agent Venom, is still a pretty fun book about Flash going on space adventures.

Web warriors gets a bad rap for some reason, but I enjoy seeing the spider characters jumping around different dimensions.

Vision is the best book marvel's putting out right now.

Deadpool continues to be great because of Gerry Duggan, and he's also writing Uncanny Avengers.

The writer for Silk has also managed to turn her into an actually interesting character, and the main artist is amazing, but the replacement one sucks.

Nick Spencer writes a good Antman, even if it's not as good as his superior foes.

Captain Marvel is also surprisingly decent, and I'm enjoying Spidey and Deadpool. Fantastic art.

I gotta put in a word for Howard the Duck, it's the comic I consistently look forward to. Pretty much no fucks given about the relaunch, and even outwardly making fun of going back to #1 after only half a dozen issues. If you want self aware, self deprecating humor without Wade Wilson antics, take a look at Howard. No major story arcs or continuity to get butthurt over, just a fun point of view of the MU.

The next wave isn't widely available enough to hold a conversation on it's own yet, and this is totally on topic.

Are trades rising in sales? I'd think they'd be pretty popular given how convenient it is to order them online, and they're the only comics I buy.

To be fair, those are cancellation numbers.

>>5586437
Supposedly, digital sales are saving comics like Ms Marvel and Squriell Girl from being cancelled. So combined with physical floppy comics, it totals above cancellation numbers

Trade sales do not count toward keeping a book alive, much to Peter David's complaints.

And just to compare, to be on the New York Times Best sellers list, you only need to sell about 5k copies a week.
Also, children's books outsell teen, fiction, non-fiction and other genres all the time. In other words, adults and teens barely read books, if any. The majority of book readers and buyers in the world are children.
So comic books out sell most books out there, every single month, yet no one calls adult fiction a dying genre.

And yes, trade sales are going up and hopefully allows more Peter David books to not get canceled.

He goes through several costume changes in the 2014 series.
its really cool because you know its either hes in a new area or his hideout gets destroyed so he goes from the one with the punisher chest plate, to then just a random vest with the skull painted on with paint, then another vest with the skull painted with lighter fluid with each costume change he also has tactical sleeves and the mask for serious shit

Thanks anon! Just picked up the hulkbuster wave from my work, pretty much only for the baf. Got it for about 60CAD after my employee discount, but I don't really care about most of the figures, so I'm looking to scavenge what I can from them
>>
>>5591155

>60CAD
I'm assuming you work at Walmart or TRU? Not sure if you knew, but Winners just started stocking the Odin/Allfather and Hulkbuster waves for $10 each. Can't beat $60 for the entire wave, but still.
>>
>>5591190
I actually work at a Winners. Was holding out for Spider-Woman and Cap from the thanos wave, but got surprised by the entire hulkbuster wave.

That looks pretty good. Is that what the Mockingbird boots look like on the Spider-Girl body?

I'm convinced we'll see her soon though. Need to pad out each wave with at least one female character every wave, and they clearly don't want to stop making Spidey waves any time soon.

is that goku-venom? or sonic-venom?

Where in canada are you and can you get me a set of hb figures. Scalpers get to them too fast in my area

Well this looks terrible.

There was only one case of hulkbuster, and only half cases of thanos and all father. I'm on the west coast, but check any Winners or Marshalls in your area in either the kids department or in the checkout.
>>
>>5591275
Built on the Marvel Now Cap body? I'm cool with that; hope they fix the problem where one leg is just a little longer than the other.
>>
>>5591275
Aside from the shinyness, I think the body paint is actually pretty good. The face is a hot mess though, and that's on top of him already not coming with wings so yeah, pass.

Given that the design as it exists in print is awful, what did you expect?

Instead of coming up with something that is actually All-New, All-Different, they simply smashed three previously existing designs (WS Movie Cap, modern Falcon, Steve Rogers SHIELD uniform) together into something disharmonious and not at all iconic.
You're fooling yourself into thinking it's okay because you've got a predilection to things with wings.

I haven't been shopping for Legends in a while since I was finding nothing for like 3 months. Sunday we did some shopping at Walmart and I dipped into the toy aisle to see what was there. Lo and behold there was a single Spider-Gwen sitting at the front of the peg. I guess my luck finally turned around considering not only was she there to begin with, but there's hardly any paint issues with her at all.
>>
Why is Legends Boomerang's paint so shitty? Finally got around to reading Superior Foes (awesome series btw) so I was looking to pick up the Sinister Six*

Fair enough.

I guess I just really want a decent MCU Falcon figure.

...which we're getting as a god damn Walmart exclusive.
>>
>>5591585
Too expensive
>>
>>5591585
There's nothing in that wave worth more than $12 aside from Carnage, which you shouldn't pay more than $30 for.
>>
Wasn't there supposed to be a Wolverine included in the upcoming X-men legends wave?

Is he the build a figure or some walgreen's exclusive?
>>
>>5592320
I think there was one slot for a figure that wasn't revealed, so it's probably him. I can't imagine why they'd hold back on a wolverine though, so expect it be one of his kids.
>>
>>5592330
We've been needing a new X-23, so that'd be long overdue.

It has three; Jean, Kitty and Rogue.

I keep going back and forth between Scarlet Spider and Spider-Carnage. Any thoughts there anons? Which is better?
>>
>>5592457
Well yeah people tend not to stay pregnant for long periods of time.
>>
>>5592736
I have them both. Scarlet Spider doesn't have quite as good articulation, particularly in the waist and arms, but he does have a more unique sculpt, where Ben Reilly/Spider Carnage is a redeco of pizzaman.
>>
>>5592738
Hopefully THE BABY will reach being two or so soon so she can be pregnant again. That was the best she ever was. Maybe this time with twins that inherit her can Captain Marvel's powers respectively and an actual partner instead of random donated sperms.
>>
>>5592855
>random donated sperms
Is that who the father turned out to be? If so that's a total cop out and I'm glad I didn't bother with that book.
>>
>>5593192
Yup. Might have drama down the line when the baby has superpowers from the father's side, but otherwise is a disappointment. I was hoping for Carol Danvers to be the father.
>>
>>5592855
>marvel editorial will mandate that her male child decides that it is trans at an early age and cross dresses while being called a true hero by every elite character in the universe
Maybe her eventual new outfit figure will come with a baby.
>>
>>5593205
I was hoping it would be a gender flipped AU Carol and then her and 616 Carol would become a couple after realizing that they're so perfect and gay for each other that Jess fucked her male counterpart.

With all their pandering their doing they missed a great opportunity tbqh. Tumblr would eat up a pair of lesbian superhero moms.
>>
>>5593216
Maybe it identifies as a spider.
>>
>>5593221
Do those people really not see how ridiculously antithetical to their message it is when characters basically flip a light switch and all of a sudden they're gay? Logically, if switching from straight to gay were so simple, it would be just as easy for a gay character to say "no, I was straight all along."
>>
>>5593235
More realistically Jess and Carol would probably be bisexuals or otherwise straight girls who only make exceptions for each other.

But no, the people who cry for characters to be made gay generally don't realize how silly it is, and see a character becoming bisexual, which is much more realistic, as a cop out.
>>
>>5593244
They seem like bisexuals even in older comics. Besides, if they are not in an active relationship with a male, what difference does it make? Still shows two females that love each other.
>>
>>5583765
I honestly don't get it, are bad guys supposed to say bad stuff?
