And then the Avengers order Chinese food and argue over which place has the best egg rolls XD

Pretty sure it's just Whedon who Bendis is ripping off

Aesthetically, but the tone is clearly Bendis. These last couple borrowed aot of what he did with the infinity gems too, including outright quoting his work.

This would actually be pretty kino

haven't you heard? everything has to be tongue-in-cheek and self-aware now. you can't have a movie with deep and serious themes without making fun of it. otherwise the audience will get really uncomfortable oh wait my bad, that's just superhero movies, because they're made for children.

I hate this bald fuck more than anyone else in the entire industry.

COMICS ARE DUMB

THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE COMICS IS TO MAKE FUN OF HOW DUMB THEY ARE

>the success of much of the MCU was following his template

No, no, you've misunderstood.

The Creative Committee existed so that the studio had people to call who knew the minutiae of comic book lore. There was absolutely no creative control from the committee itself - they were there to look up ideas for the actual creatives and offer *existing* stories that could be used to justify the kind of stories that actual screenwriters were pitching.

We know they had no creative input because they're all WGA members and none of them got writing or story credits for any of the movies they worked on before they were disbanded. While WGA members can forego credits, Bendis isn't the type and no production can force a writer to give up their credit where it's due.

They were disbanded - so the story goes - because they kept taking what they knew the studio to be doing and doing it in their own titles. This is a bad idea for a lot of reasons, not least because it means your movie has to minutely document the days on which meetings were had and the point at which ideas entered the production, otherwise you're open to a claim to have 'created' whatever story, costume, catchphrase by one of the guys who just ripped it off. There's also a claim that they kept sending their shitty scripts to studio people, which is just a very rude thing to do - you don't send unsolicited scripts to people you want to work for any more. It's not 1985.

Once the CC disbanded, Bendis handed in his notice at Marvel and his backlogged titles were left to print. After they finished, he was free to go to DC who were by then over in Burbank (where, ironically, he'll be closer than ever to the movies he wants to write and far more tightly controlled - he's never going to write one).

I'll never understand why people whiteknight Hickman's run when even by his own accounts it went off the rails.

Everything has some kind of fanbase. But yeah, his Avengers was fucking terrible.

>They were disbanded - so the story goes - because they kept taking what they knew the studio to be doing and doing it in their own titles.

I kinda wonder about this, wasn't Gunn thinking of using Rom Spaceknight at one point before it people remembered Hasbro (and someone else) owned the rights to the character? Bendis and Hitch put Rom on that blackboard in Age of Ultron in the preview art:

comicsalliance.com/parting-spaceknight-shot-rom-returns-age-of-ultron-preview-art/

But then it was subsequently removed when it was finally published.

they thanked him at the end of FFH

I see this panel gets posted a lot, but I never know the context of it.

Unfortunately.

IIRC it was from Humphries' comic, not Bendis'

>Iron Man looks directly at the reader
>"I got that problem myself"

Why are anons pretending Bendis is responsible for the MCU when his entire style is a rip off if of the guy who directed the first Avengers movie?

Nothing wrong with a bit of slice of life and humor in a cape comic, you just need to execute it well. Like Superior Foes.

No shit, Silver Age Marvel bullpen got this better than anybody. The problem is comics are all written by fanboys with no creativity and slice of life and humor if 95% of the book and the other 5% is a retread of a I CLAPPED BECAUSE I RECOGNIZED IT story.

So.y marvel

It's just bad

WGA credits require a certain level of contribution in order to receive a credit and it is very much within their power to deny a writer credit through arbitration. Also a much more likely scenario is that the WGA never considered the Creative Committee's work to meet the criteria for a writing credit.

New Avengers is great, fuck what anyone says

His entire style is a ripoff of David Mamet, not Whedon.

Even during Shooter's era books were superheavy on the soap opera elements to the detriment of actually being entertaining.
