Why does Marvel's attempts to reach new readership backfire so hard?
Other urls found in this thread:
No one reads comics anymore.
because the people who complain comics aren't diverse enough are the same people who skip them in the bookstores in favor of manga
Are we supposed to know who the bottom left guy is?
because they're shit
because jews like to reboot and reboot and reboot and reboot and make a clusterfuck timeline crisis event over and over and over again with a million fucking retcons making people say fuck this shit and stop reading
meanwhile people still read manga cause it isnt an autistic clusterfuck
No one likes a dull character rip-off and who the fuck is bottom?
Capes fucking suck and no one but grognards still read or care about them.
the big 2 suffer from having too many cooks in the kitchen. the smartest thing marvel and dc could do is launch some imprints to try and branch out into non-capeshit comics with a set creative team and let them end instead of trying to make them endless cash cows.
Gojo from Jujutsu Kaisen.
Basically a Christ-like figure who controls the concept of Infinity.
It also recently got an anime, and the next season is about to come out. And he's the most OP character in there so he's very popular.
Black people know when they're being pandered to. They may not say it outwardly, they may not even consciously notice it. But they are naturally drawn more to characters and art that exists free of identity politics than anything else.
This is why anime is so popular with black people. Japs aren't trying to suck their dick 24/7 like western writers do. I've seen way more black people talk about Tanjiro than Miles.
Most people don't care about race, only busybodies do, and they don't buy comics.
Tell good stories and people will come.
>not noticing the cultural phenomenon developing around you
It won't be long until people are going to theaters for anime instead of Pixar shit.
Not a lot anime films make in into the usa.
They've been becoming more popular in recent years. Hell, I saw the Konosuba movie in my local theater.
Anime films used to not come here at all, but since Broly and Demon Slayer were huge successes they've started coming to theaters more and more. Attack on Titan will probably get a movie release and it'll break all kinds of anime box office records.
Manga is slowly but surely taking over.
He's not white, he's asian.
6'3", blue eyes, pale skin, white hair....how many Asians fit this description?
Miles Morales was a boring arsehole when he was introduced. He's still a boring arsehole now.
Never forget that Ultimate Peter Parker died for this shit.
>taking over
They took over 15 years ago
God that sounds boring. Popular manga is going through a rough time.
>anime = white people
Lol no
Any way nobody want to read such a old white concept like capeshit regardless what color you make him.
how does mary jane watson have bright red hair when white people arent naturally red hair they're auburn hair? plus white pale asian people exist in japan and i'm not talking about k-pop lovers
>Infinity (無限 Mugen?): Being the neutral form of the Limitless, the Infinity is commonly known as the ability to stop, although this is a common misconception as the true power of the Infinity is to slow things down. When something attempts to hit Satoru, the person or object in question instead hits the infinity between himself and them. According to Satoru, this is the convergence of an infinite series and comes straight from the paradox of Achilles and the tortoise. Akin to the way Achilles will never catch the tortoise due to the potential, infinite amounts of finite space separating them or how the real number one will never touch the real number two due to the infinite amount of fractions that separate them, the opponent will never touch Satoru due to the infinity between them. Satoru can decide what does and doesn't touch him and can do so based upon mass, speed, and danger ratings.
This is literally just the green baby from Jojo. Mangacucks have seriously been recycling the same ideas for over four decades
Ah yes, blonde and blue-eyed, like all Japanese people.
>Mangacucks have seriously been recycling the same ideas for over four decades
Unlike comics?
I'm a big fan of Japanese pop culture but one thing you got to know is unless they actually tell you in universe or by official office notes what ethnicity someone supposed to be you can't really tell add Asian or white.Look at the crew of One Piece the human members are all over the map if it was set in the real world.
Cool characters are liked by everyone.
If you want a cool black character you do not kill off a white character and give him hand-me-down powers and even an identity.
>White
He Japanese.
Ah yes, Violet Evergreen my favorite Japanese character.
It turns out that only Twitter retards like being pandered to over just seeing a character they like, or seeing cool action scenes, or seeing hot women.
I don't watch/read shit just to see other people who look like me in it, I watch/read shit because I find it interesting.
Oh yeah
I mean in the movie he showed his eyes for like 2 seconds
Could you retards at least wait for your last East vs West thread to archive before making another one HOLY SHOT
I don't read comics for the politics
I want something with a decent story and hot enough characters that I can fap to porn of them later
>Struggling black kid
What. Into the Spiderverse especially made him the most priviliged Spider-Man ever made.
This is the real reason. If Bendis got exactly one thing right, it's that Ultimate Peter was a fun character even if he's an angsty sperging asshole (not entirely an insult, by the way, that's perfectly understandable given his life and that he's 15 for most of the run).
Miles is just milquetoast and boring as hell and not even changing the writer helps to fix that, so have the suspicions that the problem must come from the above in a form of some mandate that "Miles can't look bad" or something.
>capeshit
>capeshit, Japan
>fourth highest grossing anime film in the US
lmao, who was the first? hello kitty I love you dream rainbow candy doll-house? are we supposed to be impresed by that? kek
more like the author picked up a book on philosophy and thought a basic paradox was cool
a ton of cool ideas you see in media are just stolen from philosophy or repackaged so normies can get it.
>picrel
Weebs making worst memes in existence, again
Just stop pandering. Japan doesn't need to.
>nigges cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin what white man have invented or made
Jews hate whites too much to come up with black super heroes, most of the time. So instead of doing something actually interesting, like putting a Zulu legend in comic form, they take an established super hero name and put a black character in the place of the white original character.
Spbp
Black people love Miles more than weebshit you delusional faggot
>Uhhhh nig- I mean black guy here, I love magna
Fuck off you pasty white neckbeard
wow its almost like niggas dont really care about black representation as long as the story is fun and the material is entertaining. maybe if capeshit kept the same energy of the moonknight staircase fight or made the action actually impactful like with punisher max instead of being 70% drama that no one gives a fuck about because itll just be retconned in 5 years, then people in general would be more interested
theres like 5 jojo characters whos stands involve infinity in some form or another and they all work completely different retard
Absolutely nothing surpasses the popularity of dragonball. Miles is a passing fancy at best.
>Black people love Miles more than weebshit you delusional faggot
lmao if you believe this. i dont give a fuck about miles. you have a bunch of cool black characters and instead of using them every hack ass writer has to make their own [character] but black in hopes of them getting huge and getting free royalties because they made the character.
Moon Knight seems to be that one Marvel book that still has entertaining parts. Like in the current run I'm really enjoying Zodiac.
I don't care if he's diet-Joker, he's probably the first capeshit villain in years I found entertaining.
Anime releasing this year:
Chainsaw man
Goblin Slayer (2nd season)
Shield Hero (2nd season)
JJK (2nd season)
Bleach (17th season)
Of course it's growing.
Source? Does she get naked?
honestly, this fight scene sucks. Comics really don't convey motion well
Don't forget Overlord IV
Black Moon Knight aka Hunter’s Moon is a thing now too
>Gojo
>Manga
>White
He's cool though unlike Miles.
Clothes get ripped and nipples show.
People don't like being preached at.
I mean, there's plenty of people who like to being preached to in religion and politics, but not through entertainment. That applies to conservative and liberal preaching alike.
Manga and anime just try to entertain you without ranting on a soapbox. Any message they want to deliver is more subtle than that. Even Mahouka with its relatively heavy nationalist jingoism, is more reserved than American SJW material.
Comic artists don't have the thousands of hours of experience manga artists do.
It's because he shows his eyes lmao. I thought he was the main character because of how he's plastered everywhere
