Agreed, in the MCU her and Bruce Banner seem like the characters no one had any vision for or felt any relation to. I'll probably go see the movie anyway because I'm a cuck

Dude, just pirate it

Obligatory.

Superman

He shouldn't have been kept in Marvel, there should have just been the one story then gone.

Well that's because there are faggots like whoever the artist is here that seem obsessed with making him more "Egyptian" tinted than he needs to be.

It's hard to work with any character with god-tier powers. Any physical challenge is trivial and any social/emotional challenge ("Let me teach these kids!") seems trivial in comparison.

There's just no need for a Dr. Strange-esque magic man when everyone is powered by Emotion Bullshit, ______ force I don't have to explain shit, or Stardust supersciencewizardry.
If Superman can fucking SING Darkseid out of existence, what is the point of Fate? Basically to tussle with some meaningless OC Chaos demons and fail to stop events.
They already have The Spectre to fail to stop events.

That’s not it at all you short sight baboon. Mordern writers hate OP spellcasters like Nabu because they lack the imagination to create stories around them. Mix that with no marketable rouges galley, and that’s why most magic assholes end up quarantined on JLD

>Dr Strange works
>Doctor Fate doesn't

Weird.

Everyone at DC is magic. When everyone has Phenomenal Cosmic Powers, then no one is Magic.

Name 3 Dr Fate Rouges.

That's the problem with DC, apart from Batman, Flash and Superman, they never actually develop a hero's rouge gallery.

Name some good Wonder Woman villains? Or Hawkman villains.

Another problem is that DC's older characters are only seen on teams, so they never get a chance to be developed.

Mordu, Votan, Typhoon
De Matteis knew what to do with him.

Well didnt NRS kill him off in Injustice 2?

Thats pretty big

Literally fucking who

I can see where that's an issue, but you sou d angry.

I mean, dosent Dr Fate basically invoke Egyptian deities from time to time. I wasn't a fan of the DCYou series, but he's been channelling the power of various Egyptian Gods since his first miniseries.

Not much.

Name a good story featuring Wotan.

Wotan is featured in the best story of Dr Fate, the Andrew Benett arc of DeMatteis.

Idea for Doctor Fate book; it’s a duo between Fate and The Enchantress as the fight threats to maintain balance between order and chaos. Kent and June relate because they’re meat puppets, use Equinox from Batman TBATB as an arc villain

Shit idea that ignores that Fate has been an agent of balance, using chaos stuff when needed too (though rarely, as mostly threats come from the chaos side and not the order one) and that Fate at best has the user merge with Nabu and not just be used.

OP, what did Fate do to you? This is the third Fate hate thread we had today.

Depends which version of Nabu is canon really. Also what’s wrong with giving Fate more characters to interact with?

I didn't say anything about it being bad to give Fate more characters to interact. This part was good.
I dislike the puppet version because it puts all "conflict" in fate to a nabu is an asshole->user talks him down/subdues him cycle. But when they merge, there's elements from both. Kent is responsible for what fate does too. And nabu is more than an emotionless fascist that needs to learn humanity (which has been done several times already)

A big reason for the lack of a fan base with Dr Fate could be the fact that DC never bothers to collect his best material and pump out some trades. Sometimes you need to replenish the fan base by drawing in new bodies and trades do a far better job than decade old floppies rotting away in the back-issue bin.

DC is indisputably worse than Marvel when it comes to trades/hard covers/graphic novels in that it only publishes “evergreen” stories, JLA members and movie/cartoon tie-in trades. They don’t take chances on B-characters.

Marvel tests the waters with trades for Machine Man, the original Champions, Frankenstein, Son of Satan, etc. DC barely manages to collect a classic run of Aquaman every two and a half years let alone a character like Dr Fate.

TLDR: no trades = no new eyes on the product

Where is there like 5 Dr Fate threads

Laddersis is bored.

Ares, Cheetah, Circe, Queen Clea, Silver Swan, Medusa, Eris, Giganta, Veronica Cale.

As for Hawkman the only one I particularly like is Truman and Ostrader's Byth Rok from their Hawkworld story.

Thangar Katar/Shayera > Egyptian Carter/Sheira > Hawkgirl Kendra

This, actually.

>Space Cop Hawks over Reincarnation Hawks

Explain yourself, now.

As a group

Wow 3 Dr Fate threads within the last 6 hours.
Fairly frequent.
