Faith in humanity restored. DC rebirth might rape the watchmen to do it, but it seems to be raping it with decent writing if The Flash was an example. Marvel Civil War is a shit crossover event that has shit writing and shits all over my favorite heroes because Bendis doesn't like them or needed someone to do something and pulled their name out of a hat.

Exactly it. Marvel fails to see how replacing all their core heroes just so that they're less white will backfire. Regardless of the race of the hero, those were the originals and having them all removed in a way that increasingly seems like an editorial mandate is a really shitty thing to do to your long time fans. If it made sense they'd still be selling well, but they do this at the expense of the quality of the books and expect people to still be excited

>>
>>84173451
I was pretty much a Marvel fag, but I'm looking to read a lot more DC right now.

At Marvel, most of the stuff I'm still keeping up with is either confirmed as soon being cancelled or on shaky ground one way or another. The only one who seems like he's both good and going to stay around is Ewing.
Not to mention that they're down to one ok X-Men book that's really not getting anywhere and Death of X is probably going to be some ole' bullshit.

I'm happy to check out some books at DC again. I'm confident this time they won't cancel every book I'm reading and chase away their creators.

Concerning cape comics it seems like every other place on the internet is either delusional or heavily moderated to never say something negative. Often both at the same time.

Replacing core characters would be cool if people were just willing to buy it when it's done honestly.

But without the core characters and no shoe-horned racial card to make headlines, none of these books would sell.
Noone would read an X-Men book starring entirely New Mutants, Gen-Xers and New X-Men. But they would buy the 6 rainbow coloured OCs they just came up with as long as enough sites started praising it and giving it headlines.

Really, I hate Marvel and comic book readers just about equally. Well maybe I hate Marvel more, because ultimately this all boils down to a complete failure of marketing, as usual with comics.

The normal turn is every year a big event.
Now its more like a chapter that get blown up and try to cross tell.

>>84174169
That was an internet teaser.
As far as i remember after they talked about upcoming stuff the internet crowd got upset of this unknown.
Marvel jumped on the bandwagon to make some uproar.

They make Death of X variants cover on non x-men books.
These covers show the main character of the books dying.
Its clearly no story or event. Its an homage to a death which is at the moment civil war.

Its even a rather easy constructed thing. Not like civil war or this new inhuman body swapper ad.

Flash looks like it has a good writer, Rucka WW, King Batsy, Action/Supes off to a good start, Abnett Titans/Aquaman. Hell, only Lanterns got shit on (and nobody cares about Cyborg).

Books like Omega Men and Grayson will never support the company.

>>84174687

because it differed itself from its comic counterpart. it sought out to do what civil war wanted to do, and succeeded.

The reason it had such high sales to begin with was because of the controversy. Sales are back down to normal levels with the second issue.

Why should they? You can play it either "reveal something big" or "be as vague to build up interest"
They went with last way. If they just say "homage covers" noone would order it. And if its a big mayor plotline they would advertise it to be a mayor turning point in X-Men.
They didnt.
Otherwise if you think its an event, its just the readers fault. So they play it safe, noone can say they lied or hyped up something with wrong statesment.

DC had Rebirth.

Marvel has a lacklustre CW2, Nazi Cap releasing the same day as Rebirth #1 and confusing Marvel NOW 2.

While DC took an honest look at themselves and wrote a big apology to fans and look to be making correct adjustments. For example DC had a "no love" mandate because they thought happy characters would be boring, that has been removed. Marvel is throwing out more gimmicks and tricks and reboots which fans are getting tired of.

FWIW I'm a DC drone, so someone else may be able to correct me.

Well they haven't really used them yet. We don't know what or how things went down so I'm not judging.

In saying that, I don't think they will be able to pull off the Watchmen well enough for it to be worth it.

I agree that Wondy is a slow burner, Action Comics and Aquaman certainly have dived into a bit more action.
>>
>>84176098
>I like having old Supes back

Why? He's identical to the "new" Supes except that sometimes people say he "seems older" and "more confident".

His entire supporting cast is fucking dead except for Lois, and the supporting cast is Superman just as much as the grin and the can-do attitude.

See, if the Rebirth deal brought back his Perry, his Jimmy (maybe not his Cat, she had a fucking hard life and she's probably having a well-deserved rest), his Maggie Sawyer, and so on, that might hold water, but currently this Superman is Power Girl, but handsomer and with bigger floatorial.

Ooh although I am excited for GLY's Slanty Supes.

His Superman run felt a bit weird considering GLY's known for being "that Asian American who does Asian American things", so this places him firmly in his niche.

I mean, yeah, it's exactly the kind of pigeonholing Hudlin and McDuffie groused about in comics (you can't just write, you gotta be "the black guy" who does "black things"), but I feel GLY will be more comfortable in this area. He'll get to fucking play now.

He doesn't have the same relationships, people aren't who he knew. Lex for example doesn't seem so bad and Batman isn't his besty.

He gets to be untrusted by the rest of the trinity which is massively new for "perfect boy scout". There are some new stories to tell with this Superman that they have never been able to tell before.

Marvel isn't just replacing members of the Avengers with new members who were less popular, they're replacing characters - the characters that got them to this point. What the fuck is Peter Parker even doing these days? Shitposting with Deadpool about superhero movies?

The WORST part is that Marvel will learn NOTHING from this. They'll blame it on Rebirth and use it as an excuse to relaunch even more frequently, instead of acknowledging the elephant in the room: People don't want politics in their comics. If I pay money for a Marvel comic I won't be able to tell if I bought a comic book or a pamphlet. It's not that people don't want to read political opinions they disagree with, it's that people don't want to read some writer's illustrated blog post.

Avengers is kind of a growing franchise since 2012 and Iron Man's their biggest headliner. And since Sony has film rights but not merchandise rights, Marvel's still willing to merchandise Spider-Man but trying to push Iron Man more because they can control his films, too.
>>

>and use it as an excuse to relaunch even more frequently,

Except if ANAD proved anything, their relaunches aren't having a gain effect either. A lot of titles dropped back to pre-SW levels.

He became an old school liberal only because they kept the politics he had decades ago. When he was contemporary, Ollie was as obnoxiously radical as it gets.

I hope so, anon. Moon Knight by Lemire is probably the only book I'm still gonna collect, with a big maybe on Ms. Marvel and Gwenpool (depending how it goes in the future).

There's an enormous amount of books I decided to not buy because they were cancelled (or relaunched) after six issues and it fucked up all the trade numbering.

Learn the difference and intersections between liberalism, leftism, identity politics and "old school liberalism" (I'm assuming you mean classical liberalism, which is something completely different, ostensibly any country which holds the values of the French and American revolutions have a classically liberal basis.)

Anybody read the interview from an earlier thread? It really highlighted a lot of problems of current Marvel for me. The biggest one being that they're always in a constant state of hype. Before Secret Wars was finished we knew about Civil War II before Civil War is finished they show "Divided we stand" It may not be an event but it let's us know the outcome of CWII more or less. And that nobody seems to have their own supporting cast anymore, all the heroes seem to be living in each others pockets and appearing for absolutely no reason

Multi-culti was a mistake. Every franchise is better, when it has its own characters, rather than every book having every character from every franchise, because it not only dilutes the franchise, it also kills the identity.
