Are they the worst fandom?

Batfags or Spider-fags are far worse

>toxic
This is a compliment. The only people ever using the term are always fucking awful people.
Colton Harris
No, the people handling the character are

>Gatekeeping is an activity that Americans could indulge in a little bit more. The key is finding out exactly what constitutes belonging to a subgroup. It definitely doesn’t mean attempting to keep people out who have an interest, and there are definitely varying degrees of acceptability whether it’s light participation or heavy.
>However, there are definitely those who would seek to subvert a hobby for personal or political gain. Oftentimes, it’s a mixture of the two.
>These people definitely need to be kept out and their complaints ignored. They aren’t really fans of the subculture. Anyone who wants to fundamentally change something could never be considered a fan. If you told your significant other that you loved them but you wanted to fundamentally change who they are, then you truly don’t love them.
>The same could be said about a hobby.
Hunter Walker
They never reach superchuds level of toxicity.
For example:
>every alien who can fly is copying my character
>superman can destroy a universe and jobs to a bat with no powers
>I lose my mind and spam this board becuase a rumor say he may be black
>muh evil superman reeeeee
>let me derail a death battle thread by talking about a monkey
>superman is a mary sue and you should love him, if you don't, you are trolling.
Zachary Miller
there's a lot of irony in this post
Andrew Reyes
If my favorite character had spent the better part of the last two decades being shat on left and right, including from the very people making new Superman stuff, I'd be pretty bitter too.
Mason Miller
>t. seething retard
Angel Bell
You’re full of it. Bat and Spideyfags are worse thanks to compartmentalized sun fandoms thanks to Robins and Ben Reilly for example. Hell Green Lantern has a volatile Hal group. Even Billy/Shazamfags, or Thorfags, have been extremely defensive and petty on this board
James Walker
>last two decades being shat on left and right
How so?
Andrew Young
>make unpopular changes to legacy character
>shit on lore and writers who made characters
>fans don't like it
>receive criticism
>whine about people being toxic
what kind of pussies are they taking into art schools these days?
Dominic Rogers
>unpopular changes to legacy character
What are these so call changes?
Oliver Evans
Their fault for staying on a sinking island.
Ryder Long
Nightwing fandom
Luke Perez
Walk into a local sports bar while talking shit about the home team and then tell me who is 'toxic'
Parker King
No you are
Brody Watson
They are the worst in the sense that they claim to love a character pushing for inclusion, peace and tge betterment of mankind but every interaction with it goes something like
>Superman is not boring, he's wholesome. It's everyone else's problem that they're too cynical and can't accept trying to be good
See, I disagree.
>WELL FUCK YOU FAG GOD I HATE YOU WHY CANT YOU SEE THAT SUPERMAN IS THE BEST I BASED MY MORALS AFTER HIM AAAAAAA
Luke Parker
sorry superman fans are toxic
batgods get kino after kino in every medium
spiderchads are always winning at everything
superincels are just losers
Cameron Hill
Superman has a fandom?
Matthew Diaz
>Are they the worst fandom?
It's a bunch of bitter fags who don't know what they want. It's basically the incel subcommunity. So yes, they're the worst.
Ian Evans
>>Could you recommend a Superman comic?
>Read All-Star Superman, it's kino
>>Sorry, tried that one wasn't my cup of tea, are there any other?
>So you're just a troll hater! I'm sorry you never had a father figure in your life! You just don't understand that people can be good for the sake of being good...(autism continues)
>>(leaves)
Superfags are fucking cancer.

Just logged into Yea Forums to say “hey op, fuck you”
Nathan Peterson
In the last ten years, the people complaining the loudest about how toxic fandoms are, turned out to be the most toxic of all.
Jacob Hughes
t. MCUck
Leo Reed
The man is talking about how he doesn't want to make a Superman movie because he knows that whatever he do, he would be criticized and not just critcized, but called the personification of everything wrong with humanity
Ryder Walker
Theyre up there. They can’t handle criticism and shit talk other characters to prop Superman up.
Ryan Sullivan
Kek
Nathan Long
No, the superman fanbase is pretty cool, the problem are the superdaddyfags, a small subset of autistic manchildren that live and die for wholesomeness and cry and shit themselves when superman hugs a kid.
Jack Price
The only thing I have against Superfags is that they act like Superman is the most important creation of mankind and that a silly funny book character that punches things real hard somehow inspires people.
Dominic Robinson
>the superdaddyfags, a small subset of autistic manchildren that live and die for wholesomeness and cry and shit themselves when superman hugs a kid.
That subset is the definition of daddy issues
David Rivera
Gabriel Bennett
Well, nobody's perfect
Aaron Hill
>a silly funny book character that punches things real hard somehow inspires people.
Is legit autism, they think that becuase people in-universe see superman as a symbol of hope, that means that real world people should do the same, some unhinged autists truly believe superman's main role is educating them.
I cant never forget when one delusional guy in in Yea Forums was claiming that Batman ourselling Superman is a sign of a worldwide moral decline.
Robert Green
Does anyone else despise the word fandom? I hate how it sounds. It feels part of that tumblr-ised shit. "Fandoms are toxic" based on what research? Super vocal retards on twitter who have nothing better to do but keep complaining? Most people just don't give a fuck. These are big commercialised properties that sell more in merchandise than they do movie tickets, the concept of being a fan of such a property is fucked anyway, considering there are hundreds of interpretations of the characters, some awful and some good.
Nerd shit is just unfettered capitalism and none of it matters anymore but to sell Batman pants or Funko pops.
Gabriel Jenkins
Let me guess, the complaint is that less than 100% of people wanted a black Clark Kent, right?
Owen Wright
Yea. The idea of any sort of real identity has been dissolved to the point that the only types of identity that are valid are the ones you can purchase. You dont just like comics, your not a fan of a show; you are part of X fandom, its a group you are a part of and a part of your identity.
Matthew Thomas
Not really, it was about how he can't imagine a Superman movie that doesn't cause a civil war in the fandom.
Oliver Martin
I'm a Bat and SuperFag, but yeah. Most of em are post crisis powerlevel trippers which makes it ironic when they shit on Batfags, not realizing that Batman's "Think of Everything" superpower is really just a way to keep him level with the others over the years. Flash didn't use to be "muh attosecond", Aquaman used to be weak as shit on land, Wonder Woman used to never fly or be at Superman level strength, etc.
I think the Superfags who respect him as a piece of living Americana are the best. A model for what Americans can be.
Jerry Seinfeld is the model SuperFag
Isaac Wilson
Indeed.
>the ones you can purchase
Don't even need to purchase them. Loads of people here don't read comics. People don't have enthusiasm and/or knowledge. Arguing is a hobby in itself. The amount of people that watch YouTube content that summarises a story instead of reading that story or looking at wiki is insane. (All these fuckers talking about House of M as WandaVision was coming out were annoying as fuck.) Amazing how social media and data collection has just forced us into these patterns and fights. Human identity really is that fickle.
Dominic Jones
>A model for what Americans can be.
Why are amerimutts so cringe? He isnt a model for anything, he is a comic character.
Dominic Ward
Homie's a literal piece of pre-war pro-American liberal capitalist propaganda, but you're too much of a pseud to understand that.
Jaxson Howard
(and that's a good thing)
Angel Carter
Yes, he is a piece of propaganda, and you are so retarded you want to give a product that was pushed as propaganda more credit than what it deserves. No one should model themselves after a product for kids, not even americans with arrested development
Liam Smith
>no one should model themselves after a product for kids
lol
Every eurotrash wants to be James Bond
Justin Reed
That is why you're a bigger loser than everyone else in the thread
Luis Brown
Even if that is true and it isnt, there's a huge difference between a power fantasy (something that superman and james bond are), and worshiping a product to the point of idolatry, thinking is a "role model" that society should strive to be like. This is why Superman fans are mocked, nobody is making claims canadians should see wolverine as a model to what they can be.
Benjamin Young
>Even if that is true and it isnt,
Looks like the truth hit your nerve
James Jones
What kind of retarded cope is this? Not only james bond has never been that popular in europe but you still refuse to understand that wanting to be chad thundercock is not the same as stating "all brits should model themselves after james bond".
Charles Flores
You must be an exhausting person to be around.
There's more morality in Superman than any politician or soldier born in the last 40 years combined. You keep on grasping at straws little man, I'll keep on living in a country that wasn't occupied by Nazis or Nips.
Alexander Perez
>There's more morality in Superman than any politician or soldier born in the last 40 years combined.
Superman isnt real you stupid manchild, he isnt more moral than Barney the dinosaur or Captain Planet.
Michael Smith
Kayden Miller
William Martinez
Whoah whoah hold the phone. I thought we all agreed the bronies were the worst fandom. They're like furry Yea Forums. They're so smug and hypocritical about everything they do. They're very creative, but very stupid and very easy to manipulate only into enjoying the wrong things, just like Yea Forumsfags except much dumber. If you try to teach them good things they stubborbly refuse to.
Noah Gomez
Holy shit, this feels lifted straight up from DBZ. Is is supposed to be a parody?
Bentley Reyes
>is ______ fandom toxic?
Yes, always. Fan is short for fanatic, after all.
Cooper Carter
Why can't fandoms be constructive like a studio or a company?
Carter Long
How he did develop those powers?
Like. This is actually playing with Superman as a Living Solar Battery. It's ok
