Last I heard marvel was getting away from this stuff. Turns out the diversity crowd doesn't buy comic books.
Easton Cook
Comic books is a white man's thing and yellow man's thing. With the demographic shift in Brazil, noone buys them anymore
Samuel Bailey
It's not so bad when you realize their sales are dropping due to this.
I just wonder how they explain these things to the shareholders...
Michael Howard
this picture was released today. no one knows what it means. the rumors are they're getting rid of the new characters, but i think they're doubling down. they lost their entire old fan base anyway, they wont get them back, they'll just watch the movies instead. the guys that run Marvel movies are all middle aged so they at as a buffer against the SJW shit because they grew up with the real versions of the characters.
Carter Nguyen
The comics division of Marvel makes probably 1% of what the movies, tv shows, action figures/video games/clothes make. Marvel's not losing any sleep over it.
Owen Brooks
These things move slowly, the company revenue is being kept afloat by civil war 2 right now, with drops across all their main lines. This was probably planned at the height of femthor's polygon buzz.
Watch the announced releases, they're a bit more modern.
Cooper Murphy
All this diversity shit is nothing more than to compensate for how bad the current state of the universe is. Nothing makes sense in terms of storylines but hey, we've got a black Spider-Man now. PROGRESSIVE!
If you want good SJW comics read Valiant.
Mason Jones
Time lost characters sticking around.
Liam Hall
What in gods name is a "good SJW" comic?
Christopher Bailey
Source? 2016 was an improvement over 15, by like 2 percent, over took dc again in total market share. Besides all the old folks are still in the books in one form or another. Comic geeks are autism incarnate, and no change in quality will so them from being completist.
Jackson Barnes
But the comics are the source materials for their movies/games/toys no one likes comics = no1 bothers over movies/toys
They're running civil war 2. That's bound to boost sales. Their main lines are tanking.
David Reed
Valiant are able to write decent stories by having most of the cast be either a different ethnicity without actually pushing it too much like Marvel.
Justin Scott
I grew up watching batman animated, batman beyond, x men wolverine (1990s version), samurai jack, dexters lab and so many other great TV shows from cartoon network and nickelodeon, all surprise surprise made by white guys, now all the shows are fucking retarded or plain propaganda and sure as fuck not something I'd want my kids to see.
Indian entertainment is horse shit, out of 1000 shows 1 will be good. Majority are those retarded mother-in-law vs daughter-in-law tv shows where they fight over bullshit.
I NEED YOU WHITE GUYS TO SURVIVE, THE FUTURE OF NOT JUST THE WHITE RACE BUT OF ALL NON-DEGENERATE PEOPLE DEPEND ON IT.
We'd make our own entertainment but thanks to socialist government quotas, its gotta include a Muslim, a dalit, a christian, a kashmiri Muslim, a villager, a north eastern chink and a woman before any evil hindus.
I watched comicstorians civil war 2 video. It sucks. Story is dogshit. I'm glad I didn't give any money to those shits. Of course the bad guy in the end is evil rich white male tony stark.
Jackson Price
These are just anecdotes from some shop owners talking the overall decline in marvel and dc sells. If you look at the real numbers the numbers went up after the diversity push year to year. Granted the numbers are still shit compared to back in the day, but any uptick is going to be seen as an success in their eyes
Brandon Flores
Singham was awesome, you guys have that going for you. Also I agree about civil war 2 being crap, but it still will boost sales just because it's a big thing.
John James
They run a special le epic crossover every year, and one of their biggest book right now is Black panther.
Christian Gray
I will talk about my own experience and my surroundings. MCU is feed by 40 years nostalgic parents. Most of the younglings who know something about X-Men or Avengers is because they read their parents comicbooks. They already droped this feminist shit, so it won't enter in their houses. mfw new readers will never have something as good as this...
Isaac Carter
And the main lines aren't tanking because they aren't really doing just one main book per character (a couple of you're popular). Just about all of the character in OP has their own book along with a book or a team book for the original. Marvels dominance was never just having one book selling like crazy, they flood the market with tons of books. The more characters the more merchandise.
Jeremiah Ross
If this is yours or you've read them you are lucky, its truly sad that new readers get dogshit cuz of some fuck twits, old x men was incredible. Legion on TV seems good, though only seen 1 episode, sadly starts off with """love"""" and romanticization of mental illness. Can't make this shit up.
Landon Robinson
Of there's any group of people that's probably against this type of stuff it would be comic book readers, though I'm sure these aren't made for those people anymore
Cooper Lee
Reminder that Marvel are dropping the SJW shit like a hot potato now that Trump is in.
Panini, which have the rights in Spain is re-editing the good material and for a reasonable price you can buy A TOME with all the relevant series. Because 30 years ago this was something so marginal it hurts think about it now. So I think the delay we always have is again a good thing. My big bro had the originals and I was a fucking leecher because I was a little kid for the time.
Lincoln Watson
Good to know but I'll wait until the reviews are in, not gonna buy "ask me about my feminist agenda" anymore.
Oliver Campbell
X-23 actually has a really neat origin and start to her series, they should have kept her in the wetworks/spy/terrorism stories. But of course then Bendis got ahold of her. Bendis ruins everything. EVERYTHING. agreed on everyone else what a joke.
