Why Did The New Age Of Heroes Fail?
>Artists! It's about ARTISTS!
>Artists? We never said it was about artists?
>Lack of advertising and uninteresting stories
>Almost all were tied to the Metal Event which it's ramifications have since taken a back seat to make way for Heroes in Crisis
People don't like new things, just what's old and familiar. Also a lot of normies saw the Marvel-inspired characters as poor form.
This but unironically, No one was buying these for the artist. Everyone was focused on it being a marvel pastiche.
>Lack of advertising
Well that's not true at all. I distinctly remembered dozens of in house ads for these series in several comics.
Dark universe shit
Masterclass artists for one and a half issues
Marvel ripoffs that had to be amazing for people to not keep bringing it up
>Marvel ripoffs
It's called a pastiche you fucking moron.
Well, I don't believe it's a total loss right now. Silencer got some play outside of comics in CW, and reaction to Sideways seems pretty positive at the moment. The team books are flops though, and Damage and Brimstone will probably be z-listers in a few years.
Why when marvel does a ripoff of a dc character it gets success while when dc does it is a complete failure. Is it the famous marvel magic?
