Who makes this? Who reads this? What kind of lowly human being engages with such content?
Nobody. Any comic made after 2000 is just the author using it as a soap box for their twitter politics.
Otherwise nobody reads that crap.
Comics used to be such a kino medium. A real haven for guys to write cool shit for other guys to write, like vidya. Both are done. No outlet of expression is left anymore. Just wither up and die wageslaving till you die with nothing else to hold on to.

The absolute state of things. "We killed comics, come on reddit, let's kill manga!".
He's a virtue-signalling homosexual, but he's right about manga fans being mostly pedos.
I don't think I've seen any drag queens reading manga.
>Sexual Deviance to the Left of me, Sexual Deviance to the Right of me!
there is nothing around that normalizes normal relationships anymore.
>The manga fan is immunized against all dangers: One may call him a weeb, autist, neckbeard, manchild, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a pedophile and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: "I’ve been found out".
Nah you just have slave morality, the fact the behavior is so widespread across culture, across time, there is some evolutionary advantage, in other words I love dicky and I'm proud of it.
Shut up pedo.
>oh noes this 16 year old's boobs are TOO BIG!!
Cry me a river, pearl-clutcher.
dicky is a human right, it's legal in Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia
I have no idea who that guy is, but seeing how everyone who complains about anime girls ends up being an actual IRL rapist, I'm going to assume that guy is an actual IRL rapist.
It's a fairly safe bet. My only complaint about anime is all the damn Isekai. That or how I basically have a 20-40 year backlog if I'm ever gonna get into any of the old classics.
Believe it or not he created the Punisher.
> Believe it or not he ripped off The Executioner
Libraries and schools buy this shit (with your tax money lol) and they sit on the shelves so literally no human reads this shit.
If you went to Cinemaphile, and took a look at three or four comic related threads, you would know that the answer is: legitimate literal retards.

There's a tiktok account if a tranny who made a misgender compilation. It was hilarious because he's just a fucking guy with long hair wearing a dress demanding to not be called sir. And what's funnier is the comments are all talking shit and calling him delusional.
is that the one who was yelling at a Latino gas station attendant or something who kept calling him sir in one video? sounds vague as fuck but that’s all I remember. Fuckin hilarious.
This is just so fucking funny. Unbelievably funny.

It's wild how so much american media feels more like state propaganda than even chinese or north korean media.
I think the difference is that propaganda in those countries is meant to make you feel national pride and bolster the sense of belonging. This kind of propaganda is all negative and subversive.
This. Keep in mind that a Chinese company created TikTok. They have heavy regulations on the Chinese app but no filters on the one people in the rest of the world use. China TikTok is about amusing them with harmless and wholesome content, motivate them to study and make something of themselves while western GoyTok is...well you know.
Not really. The difference is you don't want to feel pride in your nation and hate the thought of united action. You're a bigtime individual, not a citizen. Gotta do your own thing.
>The difference is you don't want to feel pride in your nation
Sauce on your retarded claim?
I think it's the plausible deniability of it
in other countries, you already know that the state has a hand in things, so no one can deny that there's propaganda
in the US, the state can hide behind "nooo we had nothing to do with it, free enterprise!" and people actually believe them
makes the whole thing feel more slimy
In China the Chinese are in charge of the media and want what’s best for them.
In the US israelites are in charge of the media and want what’s worst for whites.
the difference as anotjer anon stated, is that in north korea their own people are in charge and want the country to work, they are of that country.
in wedtern countries, it is external enemies that want to destroy the morale, spirit, hope, happiness and creativity of every man.woman and child of the country they are infecting.
propaganda in european founded countries is siege warfare designed to sicken and weaken the population until they are too ill to stand.
internal propaganda of north korea is a defensive weapon, designed to strengthen and unify the people against external threats.
the attack has been happenng mostly since ww2.
The fundamental issue that plagues all the wokeshit is keeping up with the “current thing”. When people watch a movie, play a videogame, read a book or comic they seek escapism, not being reminded of everyday political bullshit.
Those obnoxious shitters don’t understand this very basic thing.
This kind of thing at least (superhero comics as PSAs for government agency initiatives) is nothing new. I mean, Captain America started as literal Army propaganda during WW2.
I know comics often bring in real-world events but it seems so fucking weird. Like in cape comics they could stop this shit but don't
>Asking for everyone to get the shot instead of stopping covid in the first place

uh where are their masks
This probably dates back to the distant pass where we were promised that only one little jab was needed and then all our problems would be solved.
They're vaxxed. They earned the privilege to not wear masks
Leftists suck so fucking bad that it’s genuinely surreal.
Listen, I hate what Disney has done with Marvel stuff, and DC films aren't any better these days, but I still like superhero films. That said, we really don't need 500 threads with these retarded fake "insider leaks" where someone seemingly just throws darts at a board and pretends they know what's going to happen next.
Anyone with basic pattern recognition knows what's going to happen next. The same thing that's been happening. Everything people predicted for years that they gaslighted and said were crazy conspiracy theories turned out to be true. They replaced all the men with flat ugly chicks, they raceswapped everyone and made it all pozzed and gay. Whatever movies are already in the can will continue this trend on the assumption that suddenly it's successful. When they catch up, the next new project will be pure nostalgia bait. The writing will be the same tired garbage but they'll bring back actors from things that made money only to humiliate and kill them off in a single film. "Hey guys, remember RDJ Iron Man? Well, this isn't him, this is some homosexual from another universe, but now he's dead too! Oh wow, don't you feel emotionally impacted?! We even gave him a brand new suit so we can sell you another fucking action figure again."
Then the second they think they've managed to get back on track and make money again they'll go right back to pozzing it out in the open again, business as usual. Any predictions beyond that are worthless.
Well as this anon
is suggesting, an alternative will come along and people will gravitate towards that, they can continue to burn money while we all move along to greener pastures
Shonen is getting just as pozzed. Chainsaw Man is the new 'brand' of shonen. Weak, emasculated MC with no hopes or dreams besides being a pussy whipped slave, nothing but coombait, dykes, trannies and fag baiting, edgy blood and gore for mindless drones. It's not an alternative. The alternative is to stop caring about present day media for a fix when old media is more or less endless.
>Chainsaw Man is the new 'brand' of shonen
kys
The hottest manga right now is a heckin wholesome family comedy manga set in not-USSR
What a whiny little brain rotted bitch
Fuck Chainsaw Mid just re read sum mothafuckin GANTZ
There are no trannies or fags in Chainsaw Man. He kills demons with a chainsaw and all the girls are hot. This alone makes it better than 90% of Western media.
you got filtered by chainsawman of all things? An evil dead homage with hot women?
>they hated him because he told the truth
I've switched to manga so hard its difficult for me to even read from left to right anymore for Western shit comics. Y:the Last Man, Scott Pilgrim and Black Hole were the last graphic novels I've read. I don't know who told them to kill themselves.
KEK
That line is so random. So they really think this is positive representation? It looks like outright parody.
Hold on, if this happens after The Killing Joke, then why can she walk normally? Did she even work as Oracle? And since when does she have a fucking brother?
A medical implant and physical therapy got her walking again. She apparently did the Oracle thing for a year or two after retcons. And Miller kinda forgot Gordon had a daughter when writing Year One.
I don't want relatable shit. I want heroes to be above and beyond, not people as mentally broken as me. I am sick of deconstruction of the genre. It has killed it
kek
soon comics will be pages of super heroes using WC, taking the bus, losing their mind when filling ltheir tax revenue form, wondering why their laundry machine smells bad
can't wait
Bendis and his consequences have been a disaster for the comic book industry.
Characters can be relatable and inspirational. That's why Spider-Man has always been so popular. That said obviously not every character has to be that.
Agreed but the problem is that writers get so fixated on "relatability" that they forget to make the superhero side of the character larger-than-life, inspirational, heroic, virtuous, excellent, etc. Characters are reduced to just schlubs putting on spandex for no other reason than conventions of the genre.
Same. Stopped reading them when they started doing that
Fuck you DC 2011
Exactly. A super hero is an exceptionnal person, who had to face exceptionnal hardships and go beyond and above them to be truly capable of calling himself a hero.
I hate this trend of taking retarded normal persons giving them extraordinary responsabilities, no real difficulties and they just are good with it because, or worse they are outstanding and brave or whatever.
Fucking Megamind has a better representation of what happen when you give normals persons too much power
You are not alone.

Has it gotten better or worse since then?
It's kind of a shame, comic books can be a good medium to tell a story.
Comics have been dead since the early 2000's. They were the first industry to be fully pozzed.
much better
Sounds about right from a man who likes cramming young boys into spandex.
BATS IS NOT GAY, I SAY, NOT GAY
Straights can get it too.
AIDS?
HIV=/= AIDS, stupid.
Correct. HIV (homosexual immunodeficiency virus) causes GRIDS (gay-related immune deficiency disease)
is there a canonical answer of how many super heroes have HIV in DC comics?
Dark Horse is still rocking!
Thanks to manga!
if only 1% of their production is manga but 66% of their sales are manga, why dont they invest more into it
why are they investing so much into the unprofitable westoid comics
israelites will spend whatever money it takes to destroy the goyim, it doesn't matter if it's sustainable, as long as goyim are destroyed in the end
Less leeway to change the meaning of something already written in a different language. Instead, they can create whatever propaganda they want with their own garbage. So manga keeps them afloat while they spew their waste with reckless abandon.
wait, so is the manga they produce just translations of Japanese comics? not original?
And keep in mind, this quote is from them apologizing for the content of the manga that keeps Dark Horse solvent. They're basically telling the questioner that they understand manga is deeply problematic but it's too lucrative to abandon.

Most small businesses are underinsured. In the aftermath of 2020, pretty much none of them reopened. Even if they had been fully covered, the insurance companies would've been forced to jack up the rates as a hedge against future expressions of black culture.
Do leftists really not understand how insurance works?
No. And Summer of Terror 2020 pretty much proved that much at least.
I'd like to see some data on how overrepresented lgbt are in western comics.
I know a total of 4 gay people irl - none of them close, just people I met in college or in gaming clubs, so they make up less than 1/1000 of my personal social and work circles. But it seems like 1/4 major characters in comics is some kind of lgbt, at least.
>I post on Cinemaphile
>My personal/social/work circles are 4000+ people
Didn't your mother dick you into not lying when you were little
You have a point, but you do not know 4,000+ people. Most people can barely make 150 concurrent, stable relationships.

Why don't 'properties' license their shit out to indie directors to make smaller projects? Why not let someone like Albert Serra make a weird meandering psychodrama set in the MCU but with minimal superhero shit; just uneasy domestic and political issues?
Yeah, it would be kind of odd, but if it's a 'universe,' it can contain all sorts of stories. That should be the purpose of a universe, no?
What value does "being in the MCU" add to that if it's not about Marvel super heroes doing super hero things? Even if you want to do a story that's not about super heroes but people who exist in a world influenced by the existence of super heroes, why does it specifically need to be "in the MCU" for that?
For an indie director, it would be an interesting challenge. For the studio, it would tap into an unexplored market for their products. Think of something like Bergman's 'Scenes from a Marriage,' but set in the MCU. What would that look like, if it were played relatively 'straight'? Why not find out?
>Why not find out?
If the setting at large is different from the real world but the story makes it indistinguishable from the real world then there is no point in changing setting from the real world.
A lot of these older comic books characters like Superman, Batman, and Captain America are set to become public domain properties in the next decade. Will be interesting to see what happens
We did it, Reddit! We took comics from the chuds! Rey is all the Jedi now!

This is the gayest thing I've ever had the displeasure of looking at. Even meatspin wasn't as shocking, lame, and gay as this fucking comic book page.
She can't control her legs, so shouldn't they just be dangling behind her and not being used for momentum?
Maybe her core is strong enough that she can curl her torso to swing her legs out in front of her.
Would require that she stiffen up her legs somehow. Maybe theres a lock for her knees built into the suit or something

>Vertigo relaunch
Let's see how it went for them
>In 2018, DC Comics announced a "line-wide relaunch and rebranding" as "DC Vertigo", including 11 new ongoing titles planned for the coming year, under Doyle's editorship.[33][34] These included a new sub-imprint based on Neil Gaiman's Sandman with four new ongoing series, announced in March,[34] and seven new series announced in June.[33]
>The relaunch experienced a number of complications. Border Town by Eric M. Esquivel and Ramon Villalobos dealt with immigration and Latino identity, for which Esquivel received death threats in advance of its publication.[35] The series was well received by critics, but after four issues were published, Esquivel was accused of sexually and emotionally abusing a former partner.[36] Villalobos and colorist Tamra Bonvillain withdrew from the project, and DC cancelled the series, including issues that were ready for publication.[37] Meanwhile, Second Coming by Mark Russell and Richard Pace came under criticism from Christians and conservatives who considered its announced premise – in which Jesus Christ returns and lives as a roommate with a modern-day superhero – blasphemous and offensive. The series was cancelled before the first issue was published; Russell and Pace later published the series through Ahoy Comics.[38][39] Safe Sex by Tina Horn and Mike Dowling was also cancelled before its debut, and later published as SFSX by Image Comics.[40][41]
>DC Comics discontinued Vertigo imprint in January 2020. The DC Zoom and DC Ink imprints for children and young adolescents were also eliminated.

the filth
transmetropolitan
judge dredd
american flagg
monsters
watchmen
i only read what my gf buys me (shes a bookfag) but this shit seems pretty good. is it not representative?
Watchmen is overrated.
Watchmen is over. They did some dc crossovers some time ago but the actual series written by the weirdo that thinks he is a wizard is over. Americans say Western comics but they don't mean stuff like Dread cause it's European. I heard good stuff about French comics but most in English speaking countries don't read them.
The American comic industry was heavily Marvel Dc with IDW as a distanty 3rd if memory serves. And they all gonne downhill
I want you to ask her why she didnt buy you sandman, v for vendetta or preacher
The fact that shit like this is written and published PROVES that there is no patriarchy. Not in the West at least. Now, try making this in...Yemen or Iran?

Gay Superman hitting on you is fucking terrifying.
Don't worry gay superman likes taking it rather than giving
He was actually shot, thousands of times, with ever bigger and stronger weapons. it just doesn't work, he should make this point because he was actually nuked and shit.
They shot him into space because they literally can't shoot him. Banner can't even shoot himself. Banishment was the only solution and that failed too. Hulk/Banner knows this. Writer is a hack.
They keeppaying for writers who won't even read a whole fuckign wiki page on the fuckers they suppose to write
It's worse than that, the author of Immortal Hulk should 1000% know that, he is capable of writing better, he is just one of those types that can't resist injecting hamfisted political views.
the other option is admitting that he's just writing cartoons for children, and isn't actually a serious writer
they pay less than minimum wage page rates now. the people that accept it will push teh ideology they want pushed without questioning it or even go above and beyond. they know what they are doing and willingly do it. its not 'oh i didnt read that' or 'i didnt know'. its deliberate and hollywood does the same thing now. propaganda has no price tag. they know fiat money is worthless and htey own everything already. social engineering matters more. its why netflix and other streaming sources are blackholes for money. never made profit and will never make profit. ever. yet obama, clintons, soros, etc all dump billions of dollars into them and their imaginary stock prices go up despite never turning profits.
This series was so fucking good, started as a throwback to extremely early Hulk comics where he acts as a spirit of vengeance with plenty of added body horror, and then it turns into this trash.
That's the secret: the people who demand more diversity still don't want to buy it. This all fits into the Intersectional Marxist narrative that everything must be made political and must be subverted towards the revolution.
This is the plot of at least a third, if not more, of the stories on fictionmania

Who is pretending cartoons ain't like that now? Oh, you're speaking of the Transforemrs comics? 1 no one reads that. 2 we spike about IDW on the thread already
DILATION IS THE RIGHT OF ALL SENTIENT BEINGS
I wonder how long this can keep going. There's no way anyone's making their money back from this comic propaganda.
I understand that comics aren't exactly trying to strike a dynamic of realism but even then, someone just confesses to you about a near death experience at the hands of a psychopath and their crazy murderous brother - and your reply is that you're transgender. This is nonsensical.
Comic bros! The last comics I read for fun where the X-Men comics in 1990. Is it worth getting back into comics in 2023?
Absolutely positively not. Read manga if you really need to.
