Are the prose parts necessary to read in this?
>>83940904
not necessary, more like easter eggs.
>>83940904
They're part of the sotry
Yes, that's why they're in there
and the pirate stuff.
Can the American comics industry be saved or is it destined to continue to die a slow death until it is gone for good?
Where did it go wrong?
How might you fix it, /co/?
>Can the American comics industry be saved
No
> is it destined to continue to die a slow death until it is gone for good?
It probably won't go away 100% but it'll remain at it's current level of complete irrelevance where people groom scripts and concepts before selling the movie rights. Maybe a little weaker, maybe a little stronger, but never actually growing genuinely strong again.
>Where did it go wrong?
In the 50s with the comics code and the 90s with the speculator boom and a whole lot of other shady business shit up to and including DIamond
>How might you fix it, /co/?
Impossible. Disdain for comic books is written into America's DNA at this point. How else do you explain characters from movies that make billions of dollars starring in books that maybe sell 100K on if they're a ~BIG~ success?

>Can the American comics industry be saved
No. Not as it is.
>or is it destined to continue to die a slow death until it is gone for good?
Pretty much, yeah. Movies are giving the industry a swan song.
>Where did it go wrong?
Bloat. There's like 300 comics that come out every month, far more than one person could actually maintain interest in. Everyone has to shout as loud as they can and all it does is create a cacophony that few can penetrate.
>How might you fix it, /co/?
Fewer, better, books. The art should always be great, and the story should always feel special for being published at all.
Think how many arcs of Superman or another random character have been published seemingly for posterity rather than creative intent
Think how many eras for books are completely forgotten about or blur into vague character histories. Comics have lost their distinction as finite published works.
Are there any Disney villains that were atleast somewhat in the right?
Yzma maybe?

If her intent had been to dethrone Kuzco because he was a petulant brat trying to run the country into the ground, maybe.
But in reality she just wanted to be in his place, being just as corrupt with power, and presumably more deliberately destructive when it came to her policy-making, based on her personality, rather than just being selfish and grossly negligent like Kuzco.
He wasn't very bright though.

What type of crazy senile bitch give millions of dollars of inheritance to a bunch of cats who have no way of spending any money.

Didn't he have a different name in the comics that was "too controversial" for modern audiences? Like Jihadi or something.
>>83851461
Joto which is like fag in Spanish.
Guys I'm super excited for Batman V Supermam. Now that the embargos getting lifted tommorrow critics are going to like it. I'm so excited. And hey. If it's good enough it might slow down my cancer. Are you guys excited? My childhood dreams are going to come true.
I'm just happy that Zack Snyder is finally gonna make a critically acclaimed movie! no way this gets anything lower than an 80% on Rotten Tomatoes! Based Terrio! Based Affleck!
jerry seinfeld liked superman
>three unique ips
emarrassing
I always thought yelchin would have made an amazing older spider man. Now I guess it's best he didn't take the role. Just kept thinking of tony in civil war. Commending spidey on catching that car.
Woulda been Downright ironic.
Still tell me he wouldn't have made a great Parker.
>>83939980
I only found out recently.
I can't believe of all the things to be killed by its a vehicle recall.
>>83939980
he was too old. better peter would have been Logan Lerman
>>83939980
Would've made a better Ben Parker.
so now his white characters can turn dark skinned on command. HOW FUCKING PROGRESSIVE
>no nanotech
>can change skin and eye color just by flinching
Ol Stabby really has no clue and just wants to pander, does he?
>>83939872
Yeah this is great n all, but where's my giant robot wife? And by great I mean complete shit.
>>83939872
What am I even looking at?
One of the few works that has me always coming back is Hugo Pratt's Corto Maltese, and especially La Janeusse (set in 1905) and Corte sconta detta Arcana (1918). Something about those two speaks to me of the honest to goodness inanity of adventure, which as a byproduct forges two dissimiles into an exceptional friendship. And I guess I enjoy seeing the continuity.
Does /co/ have anything in comics they find somehow unique in spirit?
>>83939641
bump
>>83939641
Slowly waiting on Corto English releases in the US. So far we've gotten 3
Under the Sign of the Capricorn

Guys. Is a hot dog a sandwich?
>>83939754
It's a hot dog, faggot.
what's her superpower?
Lesbian bull fighting
Progressive powers.
Making straight men very frustrated at the fact she doesn't like dick.
I want to cut open shane blacks stomach and gut fuck him. Why is he such a stubborn talentless hack?
http://comicbook.com/marvel/2016/06/03/shane-black-would-still-do-the-mandarin-twist-if-he-had-iron-man/
The Mandarin twist was legitimately clever and surprising. It elevated Iron Man 3 from being a generic superhero movie to something genuinely subversive and smart.
>>83939455
Because he's so sure that that was the best possible way to go since it surprised audiences and we all know that all surprises are good.
/co/ hates the Mandarin, but jizzes over Harley and Joker
What's the meaning of this movie?
stop motion fucking
>>83939552
I get hard whenever I think of the animators moving his hips milimiter by milimiter to animatethe sex scenes.
>>83939352
either the guy had a terrible neurological problem or it was all a metaphor for him being a superficial asshole who hated everyone and his own life and couldnt get his shit together
Inspired by >>83929543 if they were still making kid friendly cartoons and toy sets from adult and R rated films today, what would be made?
Which R rated movies from 2005+ would definitely have toy sets for kids ages 8 and up?
Deadpool
>>83939394
isn't that happening already?
>>83939319
Absolutely Walking Dead
I can see the toy commercials with the kids playing with the figures fighting off the evil zombie minions of Zombor with the Boneshaker which looks like a VW van with buzzsaw attachments and missile launchers. And the awesome treehouse fortress playset with net traps and trash can weapons to snare evil zombies.
Can he be circumcised?
>>83939294
yes, because mutant powers appear in adolescence when boys begin to ejaculate and girls begin to menstruate.
it he was circumcised as a baby, he remains that wat
>>83939294
Only if he was circumcised before his healing factor kicked in as a kid.
>>83939372
>>83939403
wait what? are you telling me he has all the scars he had as a kid?
