yeah...its modern comics
Is the damage irreparable?
Taylor made sure no one would be happy if they deage Jon.
its comics
they can always fix it
(or make it worse)
All they need to do is de-age Jon and make him butt-buddies with Damian again.
In theory no but that won't change the fact in reality it is. They never repent. Literally just do a good job and you'll be forgiven.
the problem is that even those bendis is like if cancer took a shit, it seems to be the case that he's "established", so sycophantic yet idiotic writers that come after him will ape whatever he did and keep character arcs that he started, no matter how irredeemable and pathetic they are
*even though*
The damage?
Irreparable?
Is the damage irreparable?
I don't know. Know about any damage, let alone irreparable damage.
Did he damage it? Irreparably?
Perhaps.
Can comics just die already? For good.
He was never good. People who knew back since his stint at Marvel must have been pissed.
Why?
It was a warning that I should save my money and I'm glad I did.
I never really heard of a comic company announcing that they got a writer from another company months ahead like this before. This was weird.
I love how people on here and elsewhere correctly construed this as a threat.
We had this thread yesterday
What are you, the board police?
There's still people that like Bendis. I remember one guy included some of his stuff on a top 500 comics of all time list.
Is he really THAT hated outside of ultra niche comic circles? I feel like the idea of everyone hating him is greatly exaggerated
Considering no one reads comicbooks anymore, then no. Casuals have no idea who Bendis is. Only very niche comicbook man children hate him.
Ultra niche comic circles are the only places that care about individual artists or writers to begin with. You think a normie even knows who Bendis is?
Yeah, I heard surface level comic fans talking about Bendis, mostly of his ultimate Spider-Man and alias runs
I personally don't like him, but he's pretty well known
"Ultra niche comic circles" is a big exaggeration, but it's probably right that Bendis is far more liked amongst normies and casual comic readers than he is amongst proper comic fans.
Ultimate Spider-Man is basically the one solidly good book he did, and it's widely recommended for a lot of first time readers. They might also have read the big 00s events he wrote, like House of M or Secret Invasion. So normies/casuals will read those and say they like Bendis because of he does Spider-Man and a bunch of big action figures smashing together events. Maybe some normies even take a look at Alias or New Avengers, but that's probably pushing it. The casuals won't be aware of Bendis's disregard for continuity or past characterisation, and they'll think his dialogue is good because it's like TV and film (plus there's the irony that Bendis is often recommended for beginners because he's ""less wordy"" than older comics). But more devoted fans are more aware of Bendis's failings or the shitty comics he's written beyond the brief time in the early 2000s where he was okay.
It's been like 5 fricking years get over it already. It wasn't even as bad as you whiny gays make it out to be.
Hi Benis.
Bendis sure came.

Benis?
>“There are very few creators who can be an impact player from the moment they walk in the door, and Brian is one of those people. As soon as he walked in, you knew he was going to make a difference. Not only the attention he brings but the quality of story he tells,” Jim Lee, then-DC co-publisher and current chief creative officer, told the New York Times in April for an expose on Bendis.
Bendis’s thoughts on the Blacked Superman meme?
