Why did the rest of the world not really get into superhero comics?

Why did the rest of the world not really get into superhero comics?

they suck

they for children

also the new ones are dumb and sjw

not enough manchildren

Then how do you explain anime?

japan and europe both have better comics

Seriously superhero comics are fucking terrible

>hurr durr im a hero I’m so stronk
>hurr durr im the bad guy I’m more stronk
>hurr durr what will I ever do
*lame ass plot*
>hurr durr good triumphs again

Post more Rob Liefeld

Like has this artist even seen an actual human being before? Who the fuck has a chest like that?

t.b.h. Aizen Bankai would've destroyed Superman

He could probably kill Hokage Naruto with his bare hands

He also can't draw feet, so he tends to try and frame shots to keep the feet out of view. Whenever feet are needed and he can't avoid it, he draws them tilted and in line with the leg so they just look like pointy leg tips.

Anime is for sophisticated gentlemen

>madame castafiore
>main cast

She literally shows up in three or four books. If that's your definition of a main cast then you should add Alcazar to that.

superheroes are shit

ez bruh just found this random pic on google and posted it

FUCK YOU

WHAT THE FUG IS WRONG WITH HIS ANATOMY HOLY SHIT, THIS IS A PUBLISHED ARTIST?

\thread

>THIS IS A PUBLISHED ARTIST?

Published?

He was the primary artist for The New Mutants in 1989, he turned it from Marvel's worst franchise into a huge success.

Liefield is a legend.

capeshit is for plebs

I'm not a comics person, I'm judging it only from the merit of what I see

>this is considered quality work in american comics

American superhero comic books are trash. People shit on Japanese comic series like Bleach and One Piece but even those lazy series are more entertaining than the Batmans and Supermans of the capeshit world.

You dare insult the artistry of His Royal Highness Sir Robert Liefeld?

This.

Socialism was the biggest factor for us probably . Then in the 90s manga started being published and kind of filled the market I guess.

French comics are more readily available and the most popular ones (tintin, blake & mortimer, etc) usually have better, more realistic stories. American comics have thus to compete with japanese manga for the crown of foreign suspension of disbelief and manga wins by default for having more appealing art, more creative worlds and usually self contained stories with a beginning and an end (though that trend is changing thanks to one piece dragon ball and naruto and you could claim jojo already broke that paradigm but who gives a fuck about jojo).

How does that work?

yank comics are for benders

Well. If you can't buy it you won't "get into" it, simple as that.

Not all yank comics. Just the ones with crime fighters in tights.

They are pretty shitty, manga is way better.

This is a perfect example of horror vacui.

But you could make your own. You don't have to import comics for america for the concept of superhero comics to take off. That would have more to do with there being demand for comics in Poland, and what styles polish comic creators wanted to follow. Belgium didn't have socialism but didn't get into them either.

Donald Duck really is patrician tier comic books, especially Carl Barks and Don Rosa.

For obese brainlets

Yes.

I wasn't aware the human form was composed of assorted air-balloons underneath a shaped canvas

>tfw don rosa expressed great disdain for modern disney and said he owed a lot to his nordic fans
>he said he would never want to work with disney again
Pretty sure he did the quest for kalevala for his finnish fans especially

>adults in europe actually read donald duck comics
wtf

I thought it was just a ylilauta thing

I don't read them anymore (23), doesn't mean I didn't appreciate Donald Duck when I was a kid. He's got a special place in the collective nordic heart.

I'm looking forward to that doccumentary about him that's coming out soon. There's not many interviews with him on the internet rn.

to be honest you have to be more of a child to read most "super hero" comics than you do to read donald duck

Well I meant Poland in particular and I still think that lack of american cultural influence was one of the biggest factors.

Donald D*ck is Zionist propaganda to foster interracial breeding (pluto-tier dogs, chickens and ducks) and the owner of the central bank is literally a Jew, he has all his coins in a gold box in the middle of the city and uses nepotism to save the Jewish lead

Also the bandits are white 'hicks' who are obviously trying to portray whites as more criminal, donald and mickey get treated like shit by their gfs/wives to push feminist propaganda as well

Super hero comics are fucking retarded.

Pic related is a good comic.

GOAT

Because if you're an outsider, capeshit is basically impenetrable. You'll never fully appreciate the stories without devoting years of your life to absorbing the lore and understanding the complex interplay between the various incarnations of characters.

We should have never let the moralfags kill horror and mystery comics desu

lel

The only superhero to be interesting in this way is Batman, and his only superpower is being rich.

Well, that wasn't a problem in the 40s and 50 though. Back then there weren't decades of continuity to care about. I mean we had superhero comics here. Batman, superman, that shite. They were sold for a good long while. And yet they never caught on. We never started making our own, and once they stopped being sold because nobody read them, nobody missed them. It was just a question of taste, which nobody had for those comics.

I had an entire wooden create of those multi-hundred page pocket books with Donald Duck when I was a kid.
I loved them honestly
