In the comment section of the above video there’s a comment that earned itself it’s own video:

Also, I find it funny just how desperately Marvel is trying to keep this character afloat:

Jane Foster:
Thor’s girlfriend > Thor > All-Mother > Valkyrie

I agree with YoungRippa just kill her off already.

I'm really glad I didn't bother with this event. This is a horrible way to treat Wally. People like Wally, give the fans what they want.


I honestly thought this was shitposting because it's so bad nonsensical. You telling me these are real? Holy fuck why were people buying this? Tell me that Tom isn't actually that awful and that I'm just some dummy who fell for the ruse.

They used that nine-panel layout at one point in Avengers: No Road Home #9. ONE time, when Euphoria is speaking to the heroes (and the villain). And it included Conan's absolutely beautiful 'rage against the dying of the light' speech.

Tom King wishes he was Al Ewing.

It's true. . . All of it.

I sit out anything Om King. He's damn near ruined Batman and Catwoman for me, god knows what horrors I'd find in 'Customers in Crisis' run. Fuck that.

...A small dying hope I have is this shit is going to ultimately be treated like the edgy 90s and we'll get a modernized classic renaissance in the 2020s like in the 2000s.

So there are going to be people who try to defend these just as people, even in this thread, defend the edgy 90s?

Maybe the next Comicsgate will be led by SJWs.

Eh if it means we can get cool shit like New Avengers again,decent art and modernized takes on the classic costumes back I'll take exceptionals defending shit books.

Really I just want Asian psychic ninja Psylocke back,decent art and for superheroes not to be triggered over hotdogs anymore.

I'm not suprised FemThor is crashing. A character made with the "like me or you're sexist" mentality was doomed to fail. I also get a chuckle at every minority who doesn't drink the SJW kool aid getting accused of internalized racism. Can't have them expressing their own opinions, no sir.

Tom King has to be the most depressing man in comics right now. Jesus man, people don't read superhero comics for therapy sessions.

Now this I like, that's a good page.
 
Tom King is just another meretricious hack who should never even be allowed near a comic book ever again.

Poison Ivy lives, regrows from a fucking flower. Making her practically immortal.

That is already the case for Swamp Thing, Black Orchid, and maybe Jason Woodrue/Floronic Man. Getting reborn or rebuilt through the Green is a solid reason for Poison Ivy to act like she's on metahuman-grade Haldol.

Harley Quinn kicks Wally in the nuts for killing Ivy and framing her. It was the only thing in the entire event that isn’t out of character.

It could be worse. They haven't reimagined Ivy as the nonbinary/FtM linchpin to a transgressive love triangle with Harley and an edgier punk-rock Batgrrl.
Yet.

Amazing how they still tease it given that it was originally done because of it being fan service and it (probably) made Dini hard.

Also still enjoy how the weirdos who don't buy comics are still trying to push Mata Hari in the guise of the Unabomber as a heroine.

Wow ain't that just out right bullshit I hope its just a small case otherwise no one deserves to have the signature art taken off just because what ever reason. If you want to distance from Ethan why not just use a different print some other artist made again this is a dick move no matter how you look at it.
 
FROG said:
Can you find other product this LootCrate style company released with an artist's signature attached?

Watching EVS' stream right now, he's looking at the other box sets you can purchase. Seems all the signatures have been scrubbed from their prints. Including Batman's David Finch.

"Standard procedure" is what he's saying, he doesn't seem upset or worried and is making jokes about it so I think this is nothing in the end.

And herein lies the real issue.

None of these comic book wirters want to write comics. They want to be movie writers/producers or television show runners. Comics to them is a necessary means to an end.

None of them actually care.

Joke's on them, since their ineptitude at comics mean I will deem them poison and not watch any of their dream gigs at all. The ineptitude will likely be revealed in the film as well, meaning they will be deemed poison in multiple mediums.
 
The image of Hal Jordan saying that he doesn't actually know what "will" is or means legitimately bothered me.

Everything in superhero comics is silly. Enjoying them, or creating them to be enjoyed by others means suspending your disbelief and buying into the rules of those characters.

Just flatly having the character dismiss himself as bullshit is the worst thing I've ever seen a superhero writer do.
