Nigger captain America sucks

Were fine with diversity just stop making it a central focus and agenda. Comic books are gay anyway and should have died in 2001.

So wait, is he saying that SJW trigglypuffs are not his target audience?

who knew?

So we need more diversity since comic book readers haven't learned to be multicultural.

Wow nobody saw that coming......

liberals clap when you act progressive, but they'll never support you and buy your shit.

No one wants a black human torch

Basically this.

Fucking hell still can't get it right.

>(((Marvel)))

I'll never pay for a Marvel comic again as long as that hack Bendis works for Marvel.

He turned my boy Iceman into a faggot. What the shit?

Logan was a total fucking shitshow too.

Former black Marvel fan here. I stopped reading after Dark Reign, and even I think that the wave of forced pandering is a turn-off.

It should have stayed Bucky.

Leftists don't spend money. They wait around to be triggered by something on social media.

It's the Trump curse.

Unless it's deathlock I'm not interested in black super heroes
Maybe spawn.
But I don't want to see white characters tur Ed black

No bump for you marvel. You get nothing. I hope captain marvel crashes and burns worse than batman vs superman.

Give that man a raise

As you can tell I was in the dan scheinder name generator thread.

Fuck I forgot to delete it.

Why is she a woman

He's right.

The problem is it was outside forces DEMANDING Marvel push diversity rather than the fans themselves.

It's like if Porsche was being pushed to make a cheap affordable car. It would be nothing like what the current Porsche owners drive and they'd end up not buying the cheap one anyway since it's trash.

Also pic related disproves your point.

Then Hellboy wouldn't have been written.

Fuck you marvel with your Black Jaime foxx electro
I was a fan of blade because blade is supposed to be black.
Electro is supposed to be white.

Seriously?

Usually rotten tomatoes is spot on, gave it good reviews. Should I bother watching?

What, AMERICA CHAVEZ wasn't a huge hit?

that's fine because hellboy is gayer than shit just like all capeshit

Feels good man!

who were they trying to appeal to? The hardcore comic fans that would buy their trash are more autistic than the gamergate crowd.

Marvel just needs to make a deathlock movie if they want white men to spend money seeing a black character

This will be the first domino. Praise The Invisible Hand and praise Kek!

Starbucks saw a huge drop in sales after their comment about hiring rapefugees.

lawl Just Cuck my shit up senpai :)

Logan is good don't listen to the potatonigger.

>when you make a product for a market that doesnt exist
JUST

>Former black Marvel fan here.
Did you get your skin lightened like MJ?

Or maybe your comics suck?
I wouldn't know, I'm not 12 so I don't read comics.
But I bet your comics suck and you thought "diversity" would increase your sales.

Turns out pandering exclusively to a minority of people isn't an incredibly successful sales strategy for a item that needs mass consumption.

well because this is where we are now

>im making a product for women
>wow thats cool! good for you!
>im making a product for minorities
>wow thats cool! good for you!
>im making a product for white people/males
>wtf! hitler! why isnt James Bond black?!

In Spain, Starbucks is for posh people (center-right politics), leftists don't go there because is an American company.

Hiys mostly 10-15 year old white boys buying comic books

Hardcore comicfags are all in their late 30s and early 40s now. The industry knew this and attempted to secure the SJW market, thinking they would be able to fill in the age gap created when comics went to shit & kids stopped caring.

The age of comics has passed and comics as an industry will die. We are witnessing a midlife crisis but the person having the midlife crisis failed to accomplish what they wanted to do, leaving doubt for their future.

Quite frankly I'm not concerned about comics dying. Death is the only suitable punishment for traitors.

I've gotten a lot less sunlight in recent years, so not exactly.

I've also been buying DC TPBs.

Logan was pretty good. I liked it.

15 year olds are watching movies based on comics, not buying comic books.

>the current fucking year
>caring about comic books
>caring about movies based on comic books
The (((cinematic universe))) is the ultimate scam.

>"Come Goyim, come watch this movie! Be sure to watch the next 15 we make, otherwise you will lose your nerd cred!"

...

They thought the young SJW crowd would buy their comics if they put black people and lesbos in their comics.

Too bad SJWs only read comics on tumblr about gay furies that fight the patriarchy by shoving gigantic dildos in their various orifices.

>make a comic about the norse god's
>though out history they have the same genders
>think what about if we change that
>everything fails

Bane?

That's their mistake, they didn't ham fist enough diversity.

yeah i worded my post shittily

they are making comics for 30 year old feminists etc

when i agree its mostly white male teens buying them

I won't forgive them for what they did to Squirrel Girl

>genderbend Thor
>don't even give her a slutty costume
>Surprised sales plummet.

>comic book fans don't like women

This is bullshit. The real issue is the niggers, spics, and Muslims being shoehorned into the books, but Mr. VP doesn't have the balls to say it.

>ruin all the nostalgia which is the reason people still buy your comics
>don't try to make any new cool characters, like Static Shock, to balance your diversity
>no one likes any of your trash

>All the baddies were white
>there is a security company in the future that only hires white men
>the other logan had no heart and emoshunz just killed cos hitler lol
>old white man dying full of regret WAAH WHAT HAVE I DONE I WAS SO MEAN TO MINORITIES
>new x kids has no white male kid only tokens, there was even a full blown chink even though all the mothers were beaners

Shall I continue, Schlomo?

If you're pathetic enough to care about 'nerd cred' then you deserve to be jewed tee be aitch

Fucking retards, I hope this backfires in the gaming industry too.

based marvel

>western comics

It already is. Nobody beats the market. Nobody.

...

static shock was actually pretty good back in the day..

but he had a dad and they talked about issues that would've steered more black youth away from thuggery.

wouldn't have been able to compete.

They need something to compete with The Boondocks if they wanted to capture the black market. You can't just talk about how bad thuggery is, you need to satirize it and turn it into a walking minstrel show. When it's so blatantly stupid that any moron can see how modern "black culture" is nothing but nigger revivalism, then it might grab some sales.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THOR ISN'T A FUCKING WOMAN! STOP THIS SHIT! IT'S EMBARRASSING!

>Were fine with diversity
I'm not. Not anymore. I actually would have been completely fine with "diversity" a few years ago but I'll never forget the crusade these (((companies))) went on to shame and erase everything white and masculine. They turned me into a Sup Forumsack

You want to make a quick buck off what's popular. You don't care about diversity. That's why you just made Thor a woman, Spiderman into a black guy, turn Wonder Woman into a cunt who uses words like "mansplaining." Don't forget [UNSOLICITED OPINION ON ISRAEL].
Marvel and DC couldn't care less about SJWs, they're just pandering to them because being "Diverse" is popular, but they didn't want to put in any effort to make new heroes so they just slapped a new coat of paint on the already popular heroes - So they piss off their old fans, and SJWs don't fucking read comics so they end up falling flat.

It's like trying to get vegans to come to McDonald's by getting rid of all the burgers and fires and chicken and replacing everything with tofu. Vegans aren't going to eat at fucking McDonald's, they hate it. And now you lose your real customer base.

They aren't even original stories though, they're literally printing shit like gender-swapped Thor, race-swapped Spiderman, etc, etc. This shit has existed as terrible fanfiction online and available for free since the fucking internet began, do they really think people would want to fucking BUY this shit??

No VP of sales, people wanted good stories not acceptance shit jammed down peoples' throats

You know this ... and I know this ...

I just wish you could tell that to the faggots who keep putting star wars and comic-book logo bumper stickers on their fucking cars. That and the comic fans. But sadly, they're big (((blockbuster movies))), so if you don't watch it, you're not in with the "in-crowd".

How can you possibly be a normie if you haven't seen a bunch of predictable bullshit movies?

Not the case here. It's the coffee shop of progressive liberal hipsters

If that's all you got from the movie then you're a fucking sad case kid. But since you asked, please continue. Keep on making a fool of yourself.

Totally agree.

You said it perfectly.

Nah the 15 year old boys are the ones watching movies based on said comic books, few of them actually read said comic books

A few months earlier.

>Do stupid shit
>Get called out by your customers for doing stupid shit
>Continue doing stupid shit
>Sales drop
Gee, who knew?

Is this better?

>simply swap genders/skin colors of characters
>don't add any art style/story arcs

They really didn't understand why comic book fans read comics. You're either digging the art, the stories, or a combination. Making Superman a gay black transgender handicapped otherkin doesn't add value to the story.

this

diversity, as in all things, works in moderation. But Marvel went full ham and started pandering to an audience they never had, who doesnt actually buy and never will buy comics, in the process alienating their actual fanbase, and sticking their heads in the sand when people told them it wasnt working.

The way he's saying it is like the audience was wrong. Way to alienate the fanbase even further.

oh really? who would`ve guessed.

now compare that to GTA V.

i would not mind those diversity if they kept the things interesting, i mean my favorite hero is a nigger green lantern only worked because it was not that forced.

100% this. I've been radicalized over the years because of this shit.

>tfw you were redpilled by the comic book industry black/cripple/trans/pussy-washing your favorite characters

SPIDEY ISN'T BLACK REEEEEEEEEE

...

most of those kids races made no sense.
x-23 was white but if her mom was a stolen mexican woman she would have to be native woman since no one gives a shit about them but x-23 still came out white

>trying to get anything more from a movie about fucking comic books
>not actually rebutting his points
I'd like to hear your counter-point ... if you actually have one. What is this super important message that was hiding in another mindless superhero movie. Please, bless us with your knowledge and wisdom regarding pointless shit.

1. Customers want x
2. Try to sell them y
3. Whine about low sales
4. ?????
5. Non-profit!

>I'm really tired of winning
Marvel comics, Amy Schumer Netflix, NFL Kaepernick, Ghost busters lesbo edition. Bernie BLM, Hillary's thug mom round table..It's like they actually believe shit propaganda the 2% of LGBT SJW spew as fact will get them somewhere, well it sure didn't get them votes now did it..MAGA

Bane?

I was one of those kids. Spent about half of my money from allowance from age 8 to 13-14 on comics or other things before i got into pokemon cards. Got beat up in school for it. And now Marvel has its own fucking prime time crime drama

i hate to be a hispter, but it truly does bother me that they're all moved into my old hobby without consequence

I'm not going to lie, I got big into collecting comics for a period of time a few years ago.

This is too little too late. They already lost me as a fan forever and I hope the industry burns.

Im 21 so a little past that demographic but I can gurantee you even the teenagers don't want to read pic related "15 year old genius black girl" I know it's fiction but come on

I like me some nerd entertainment.

That said, the endless capeshit movies aren't that - they're cash grabs made by corporations with a BBT-level understanding of the stories and characters and zero interest in doing anything except wringing more profits out of their IP.

Hollywood is in the lowest and most pitiful state it's been in since it began. It produces nothing but worthless trash and doesn't deserve a damn dime for anything.

Real nerd entertainment still exists and it is now online in niche markets, quietly producing the next generation of visionaries. Just like it's supposed to do.

They're admitting it? wut

Back when I bought me first gun I used to open carry like a retarded faggot
I went into a Starbucks to get a coffee because I was tired as shit and had to pull an all nighter that day
The chick that handed me my coffee was cute as shit, I chatted her up and I asked her for number
I could tell she was digging me and I pulled my phone out so that she could put her number in my cellphone, my jacket moved a bit and revealed my handgun, her eyes opened up and she straight up said "no I'm sorry guns are bad and don't belong in society, I don't want to talk to you if you own one"
I laughed and was caught way off guard but that confirmed to me what everyone had told me
