Bad guys insulted our girl

>what dat mouth do

A Marvel employee posted a pic with female editors drinking milkshakes. When people began to point out they are the reasons for all the SJW shit and lack of sales going on other drones began to post themselves with milkshakes and a hashtag makeminemilkshake as a way to show some form of ignorance solidarity. Basically narrative control to make it only about the editors being women and drinking milkshakes instead of the real issues many fans have been bitching to Marvel about.

Did their milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard?

Marvel is stirring up more fake controversy because DC is BTFOing them every month, sad really

>Diversity and Comics replys to a reply on Gwenpools editors picture
>The picture is of her and other female editors drinking milkshakes taking a selfie
>I think it said nerd girl
>He replies "Fake Nerd Girls"
>Gets blocked
>She goes crazy saying she is now being harassed and DMed by numerous people.
>She fails to show any proof of this
>Brevoort jumps in saying not to listen to the shitbags
>Entire comic book industry is mobilized to comfort her
>Entire thing is spinning out of control
>People try to doxx Diversity and Comics by hacking into his Patreon account.
>They can't do it

Its forced drama. Although it is interesting since it gives you a strange insight into what kind of PR Marvel is looking for.

>Basically narrative control to make it only about the editors being women and drinking milkshakes instead of the real issues many fans have been bitching to Marvel about.

Which is?

Marvel trying to make a move on DC's milkshake racket?

...

they are making the whole thing about evil men hurting innocent women because everything that has a vagina is evil!!!!

While in reality people are just sick of the terrible and heavy handed PC SJW writting in current Marvel

Semantics. Sounds like different ways of saying the same thing. They're claiming the critics hate women, and the critics are claiming they hate the comics because of women. No need to dress it up and try to make it look presentable, those people are still being douchebags regardless of how you want to spin it.

Well not all critics are saying that, just the vocal ones people seem to lump together with everyone else. Marvel is not doing well and the editors should be held accountable.

>those people are still being douchebags regardless of how you want to spin it.
they are not, they are just calling them on being shitty writters, artists, editors, etc.

The truth is that most of Marvel books, including Gwenpool, are badly written, drawn, they lack aim, style and get re-booted every 6 months because of how bad they are.

But of course that they and Marvel interns like you are going to make it about sexism because you can't deal with the truth

Damn I love this artist on whatever he's on and this looks weird, what's this from?

>Marvel is not doing well

The comics maybe not

But that's such a TINY piece of the Marvel brand. Most of Marvel's worth is from movies, toys and clothing and other merchandise, etc

People keep saying Marvel should be concerned with all this, and they don't really need to be. If their movies started to flop or something they should be concerned. Comic books is little dick money

So is this going to end up being the GamerGate of comics?

Marvel would love that but it'll probably die after a week

we should spam that bitch with the terrible Gwenpool artwork that you see in the comic

I'm not the one who brings up this "heavy handed PC SJW writing"

If it's just bad quality, why is there always politics in the complaints?

You're full of shit son

Sure but PC SJW is not the problem
Black, Lesbian, and Transsexual characters and writers dealing with issues that affect them is not the issue.
The writing is the issue so it's not that Gabby Rivera looks like a fat dude or that America says white people are evil but that it's a groundless personal fantasy positive feedback loop.

Doug Manhke

>If it's just bad quality, why is there always politics in the complaints?

where? The only person bringing politics is the Hack Gwenpool editor

>where?

Are you joking? "Where?"

Just about goddamn everywhere, you fucking mongrel. In the Sup Forums catalog for starters, but you'll find it anywhere on the internet, Twitter especially, Facebook, YouTube, everywhere.

You really expect me to believe you never noticed any of that? Or you just not going to acknowledge it because it doesn't fit your narrative?

That Doug Manhke. Worked on the old Mask comics and lots of stuff for DC including GL around the Blackest Night arc and the recent Superman comics.

I forget the exact run name pic related was from, but it was certainly a SHAZAM comic in the mid-late 00s.
Maybe Trials of Shazam?

So, from what I'm gathering, Heather posted a selfie of her and some coworkers on Twitter. Then everyone tells her how much she and the rest of them suck at their job, and everyone makes this about hating women and not about the terrible quality of Marvel's work
Is that an accurate rundown of what happened

If you were serious about callig out all the hacks at Marvel, you start with that group? Who even are they? Apparently one of them edits Star Wars but who the hell are they?

IF you were serious about calling out SJW and Hacks at Marvel, there are much more deserving targets.
But thats not what this was.....

That the editors do such a poor job, it wasn't until Shakegate that people found out they existed after all.

>When people began to point out they are the reasons for all the SJW shit and lack of sales going on other drones began to post themselves with milkshakes and a hashtag makeminemilkshake as a way to show some form of ignorance solidarity.

That sounds like the most obvious false flag advertising ever. How are people this easily manipulated?

>It's not politics, they're just making bad quality comics!!

You guys are backtracking harder than fucking GamerGate

Spineless chickenshits

>People try to doxx Diversity and Comics by hacking into his Patreon account.

>trying to dox someone who showed his face, showed his name, told where and in what area of expertise he's working
>still failing
Those people are subhuman, lmao.

I should have been more specific. I was not implying Marvel was losing money as a whole. I was just speaking about the comics division.
I agree it is not the message, because quite frankly anyone can get a comic without a message out there, however, I still think editors should be held accountable and using this issue as a way to say it is just because they are women is moot. A handful of idiots make it about SJW or sexist bullshit, so now they play the victim and say if you do not like their books you hate women or diversity. It is bullshit.

Stop trying to make this a thing, marvel intern.

>I'd bang her
>rape threat

So it's come to this.
A battle to see who's milkshakes will bring all the boys to the yard.

>A handful of idiots make it about SJW or sexist bullshit, so now they play the victim and say if you do not like their books you hate women or diversity. It is bullshit.


And what about all those guys who were saying they hated the "SJW" writing, the minority legacy characters, the queer and female characters? Let me guess, you're gonna give me some bullshit Alex Jones conspiracy theory that they were all paid to say that and these opinions never existed? Fuck off. You know what's going on, don't try to be coy about it

Bad comics is an observable trait.

I think it might have been in the later half of the JSA books from that time period. I think it was just an epilogue to the rest of a story.

People are getting tired of the movies and by the time Infinity Wars happens it'll be over. The cartoons are shit as well so they don't even have that to back up. Shitting on your comics, which is the origin for all of this shit, isn't a good business stand point. If Marvel keeps going at this rate they'll just be a shitty t-shirt company. By then people wouldn't care who those characters are or even buy them because there's no connection

The internet presents people with two options: either they face reality and learn to verify facts in a sensible and rigorous way, or they can feed their cognitive biases with the inexhaustible cornucopia of rage that is social media.

Guess which option most people prefer.

Who the fuck gets triggered over someone posting a picture of themselves with a milkshake?
Though I guess it shouldn't be a surprise given that Donald Trump eating KFC is national news worthy content.

The poor execution of diversity is one of the most common problems going on with Marvel books right now.

>trying to dox someone who showed his face

Is he cute?

Follow along with the fucking conversation you ignorant douchebag. No one is saying people do not like it. Just the vocal eggs on Twitter, the minority, are the ones they used to make a point and ignore the people who point out the books are bad due to writing and art. The editors should be held accountable. Fucking hell. You fucking beta faggots is the reason nothing ever changes. Go cry to Sup Forums.

...

I think it more relates to the fact some people were using it as a chance to tell the editors the books suck. Not because of the people involved. Sure some of them were sexist morons, but those same editors have manipulated the situation to be only angry white men were complaining about SJW shit.

But does Sup Forums know what is the best flavor of milkshake?

>Semantics. Sounds like different ways of saying the same thing. They're claiming the critics hate women, and the critics are claiming they hate the comics because of women.

Gamergate never backtracked. It was always about whether sex was being traded for reviews or not.

This, it's an overblown advertising campaign for marvel's failing comics division and people are falling for it hook line and sinker. Fuck this company

Cookies and cream.

As a Loki fan that one scene was just awesome.

I think it's from the Black Adam mini.

Who this? Looks like Sif

Classic chocolate
Or vanilla if you're getting something mixed in like fruit or candy.

Out of the main three it's
Strawberry > Vanilla > Chocolate

Somebody explain to me why exactly a picture of a group of women drinking milkshakes together is a good platform to call them "fake geek girls" and then somehow try to spin that into a criticism of low quality books.

@StephenWacker
OFFICIAL: Someone who's been reading Marvel Comics for 5 decades is no more of a "fan" than someone who's been reading for 5 minutes.

There's no spin there, they're editors of poor quality books, and they clearly know little about comics while pretending otherwise.

How much do you get paid to shitpost as an intern?

You have it wrong. Like two or three people offered tepid criticism, said "this is why Marvel sales are low" and one person said he'd bang her and the other said she looks like the type who'd bring fake rape charges on you.

That's the only proof of "harassment" anyone has offered because all of the other supposed harassment happened conveniently in DMs where nobody else can see them and where Antos doesn't want to share them for totally legitimate reasons that aren't "they don't exist" or "I need time to get people to help me fake them".

which books do they edit?

Victimhood culture really needs to be dealt with. People nowadays thrive off of being a victim. They're comforted by it because being a victim means exchanging a bit of minor negative attention for lots of positive attention.

I don't like milkshake, am I a rapist?

have you raped a milkshake?

>Semantics. Sounds like different ways of saying the same thing.
Well a lot of the people pushing this shit or who are the loudest about this also happen to be women who may or may not have only recently gotten into the industry or hobby but want to demand everything cater to them. Why is it sexist to point that out?

People have been calling Marvel low quality for a while, now Marvel is just trying to lump the same people who make these criticisms with the people who "harassed" this editor.

Diversity promoting books would be an educated guess.

Shamrock.

Nigga that's all Disney assets. Marvel as a brand has no significance outside of being a franchise headed by the mouse.

The comics do not benefit from the movies directly. You're being retarded.

so you dont know, havent read the books they work on and are just shitposting.
Fuck sakes, if this was about the books you should at least know which ones.

Diversity and Comics is the dumbest retard on the face of the planet. People like him are the reason Marvel's SJW NWO is going to win in the end.

Lets be honest here, those editor/assistant editor girls aren't exactly the face of marvel, but they do look like typical SJW, so it was indeed a safe bet to suggest they are in fact behind diversity books. And for the record I did recognize Alana Smith there, you know what she edits? The Unstoppable Wasp. We could go on if you want, but do you really think you will end up proving me wrong?

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP GIVING THIS SHIT ATTENTION!!! HOW ARE YOU FUCKERS SO DENSE THAT THEIR PLAYING YALL LIKE A FUCKING FIDDLE! DON'T GIVE THIS SHIT THE TIME OF DAY AND MOVE ON.

They can't win if people don't buy the books.

This sack of garbage looks like layers upon layers of retardation over a thick layer of whining, fedoras and overreaction.

I suppose the obvious next thing is for Cho to do a milkshake cover, or some trash specialist like the shadman to do milkshake dickgirl porn. Or some publicity minded ice cream company to throw a self serving
>>WOMEN CAN DRINK MILKSHAKES TOO
feministwashed promotion.

It's not a stretch to think that some fedora tipped his shit too hard, instead of it being 100 percent false flag. However trying to claim that women are oppressed in the industry is idiotic. I mean, just last month we had shit like Mockingbird nominated for best writing, and best new book at the fucking eisners. It did so without opposition from any mainstream comics press. And it exists there soley because the author was able to convince her industry peers that it was for the sake of social justice.

I've got a general request for user. This is going to be at least a "fire rick remender" level of a stupid wave. Can we try to prevent duplicate threads from being formed, and stick to only one at a time?

It was also generally about how shitty of a job the gaming press was doing. I'm astounded at the level of stupid that came out from that.

They're the same people though. One of the comments was about how looking at them, it's no wonder Marvel's editing is in the toilet. You don't have to do any lumping, it's all there if you read the tweets.

youtu.be/ip9xvRz2qWM?t=281

I don't know. I read some stuff about, but I don't understand. There is so much nothing to it, I don't understand why anyone fucking cares.

Kill - Fuck - Marry - Kill - Kill - Fuck - Kill

That image showed everything wrong with marvel. A bunch of whiney feminist bitchs turning comics into their own personal mouthpeice. Fuck stuck up feminist scum.

lel

oh god. The glasses, the everything. I'm sure these editors are seasoned comic pros

Victimhood culture won't change until it becomes a problem for everyone, including victims and creates a real disaster. Until then, it's here to stay because it's not doing enough tangible harm.

The old one in the back is the only one I can identify with. Everyone else is an obnoxious New Yorker Millennial.

I don't care what anyone says, Heather a cute.

>Just about goddamn everywhere, you fucking mongrel. In the Sup Forums catalog for starters

pffffffft

Assistant Editor. . . . . she gets coffee, she does NOT affect the book
the other well known one is an editor of the star wars books, and gwenpool so . . .no sjw there.

Im just saying that these girls are NOBODIES in the grand scheme of marvel and if anyone wants to call out the Hacks and SJW there are much bigger targets. This entire thing was just someone being a dick

Top right girl might be a qt.

You're doing their work for them if you're turning going out to get a milkshake into a feminist act.

>Assistant Editor. . . . . she gets coffee, she does NOT affect the book

Then why is she even on the payroll?

So it's Gamergate for comic books?

I'd COLONIZE the right one.

No, just a forced meme circle jerk among comics twitter/journalists who feel they're being oppressed because sometimes people will say unkind things on the internet.

someone has to get coffee

Fuckin Ben & Jerry's milkshakes?

Fuck my life, I want one, also kill all except the cutie holding the phone...actually no, I hate selfies, kill em all.

Also likely a case of (warranted or not) people thinking that the editors are sitting there goofing off with milkshakes and selfies instead of doing their jobs and poor editorial is a large part of why Marvel is so bad right now.
