Just realized Dejah Thoris is better written the less clothes she wears, which include ERB cause she had no clothes then. Are there other characters that follow this rule?

Ayden Russell
>>117399803Black Cat. The peak of her character development occurred when she had an extreme plunging neckline, and she was completely covered when she was flanderized into a gang leader.
Ayden Parker
>>117400216The two times Scarlet Witch held a leadership role both coincided with the times she wore skimpy, revealing costumes designed for wardrobe malfunctions, while in her modern 'sensible' costume she's not even an Avenger anymore, and is basically retired.
James Hill
>>117402450Good call, Perez was a godsend for Wanda
Jaxon Davis
>>117402496She dressed like this the other time."The more cleavage Black Cat shows, the more heroic she is", and "the less Scarlet Witch wears, the more authority she has" are the best Marvel memes Holla Forums has come up with in years.
Jaxon Carter
>>117402560I will admit that one of the reasons I made the thread was for Wanda and Black Cat to be brought up. But I also just am reading some early Dynamite Dejah Thoris and I am really into this pulp. Dejah has not been written well for a while. Abnett's current run is ok but not as good as Nelson's
Leo Young
>>117399803In the books, she wears a mini sundress most of the time but would go bare tits when shit going action pack,
Nolan Morales
>>117402450>>117402560Wanda needs to strip down her uniform again honestly. I want hard-nose leader Wanda back
Dominic James
Should I dump a bunch of Dejah pics?
Jose Barnes
>>117402672I've never read any of the Dynamite Mars books. Any good starting point?>>117403025I'd certainly appreciate it.
Gavin Miller
>>117403043Will do, A Princess of Mars is very important without it we don't have Superman or Star Wars.
Lincoln Nguyen
Lucas Allen
Tyler Clark
>>117403083It's a real shame the movie bombed. I didn't think it was altogether terrible really but it was miss marketed badly. Also I think it might have been better animated.
Jeremiah Green
>>117403125I love the movie, just the marketing was dogshit.
Gavin Howard
In my headcanon she's hot pink.
Ayden Gray
>>117403173I'd just really like to see true pulp sci fi make a big come back. Remember they even tried to make a Conan around the same time?
Tyler Hill
Zachary Hughes
>>1174032202011 Conan got me back hard into the character.I'm a Conan Scholar now...
Nolan Butler
Has he ever had a good story where he wasn't in technicolor bondage gear?
David Hall
>>117403234I should probably give it a rewatch sometime. I haven't even really thought about it since then till just now. Wasn't Aquaman in it?
Oliver Howard
Are some John Carter pics okay?
Nathaniel Watson
>>117403249Kaor
Jeremiah Kelly
>>117403248Yes, He does a good job, moves like Conan in the books.
Hudson Rodriguez
I really miss true heroic fantasy
Jackson Perez
>>117403262You think He-Man took his chest piece?
Evan Parker
>>117403282That's cool. Maybe this weekend. With respect to Arnie he's probably the chief reason people have such a certain mental picture of what Conan is like which isn't really proper Howard.>>117403293There was perhaps more than a passing influence.
Luis Nelson

Matthew Myers
>>117403334Oh yeah I love, I actually watched it very recently so please don't think I'm complaining. It's not his fault that nobody fucking reads. I just really wish this stuff got more recognition. Though looking at what happened with the glut of cape shit maybe not. But still I really don't want this to be a forgotten relic.
Nathaniel Morgan
Like Arkham/Creed with Hulk jumping.
Hunter Hughes
>>117403043>I've never read any of the Dynamite Mars books. Any good starting point?Just been dipping my foot in and the 2011 Warlord of Mars is pretty good. I also liked the Dejah/Barbarella crossover that was more recent but not quite as good art
Justin Williams
Man I just want to see more alien or fantasy landscapes. Worlds teaming with unknown awe inspiring vistas and creatures.
Ryan Torres
>>117399803I have a similar theory about Carol. The longer her hair is the better she is written. Can any CarolFags back me up on this?
Daniel Price
>>117403372I get so burnt-out from Capeshit, But for some odd reason Pulps are always evergreen for me.
Thomas Smith
>>117403409Because pulp is pure fantasy. It's one of the reasons why Guardians and even Ragnarok were far better movies despite also being cape shit. They were actually willing to go places that weren't goddamn earth. Earth sucks.
Samuel Wright
>>117403393Get into Known Space.
Ayden Stewart
>>117403424>Kitty with a halo gunI got respect for Niven but that art....
Jonathan Young
>>117403173it was mediocre IMO, the story just didn't have me that engaged. I'd put it on par with the Conan reboot, and that's not a compliment
Jack Taylor

Blake Bell
>>117403441I may be being generous because I'm that desperate for non cape fantasy
Colton Turner
>>117403404I'm a carolfag and I'd say you are mostly right, Thompson gave her long hair back, Bendis had her with short hair in CWII. But Bendis also had her in CWI soooo...it's not exact.

Fuck I'd even take more period earth stuff like First Avenger. Got some nice Rocketeer vibes from that. Just take me some place I can never go instead of dropping a bunch of CGI in places I've been.
Nolan Hill

Matthew Murphy
Is the Burroughs stuff public domain? I feel like it's been long enough from Disney to where we could probably try something with that.

Kayden Cox

I have no idea what's wrong with cartoon fags.
Luis Garcia
>>117404175Pulp fiction refers to a genre of racy, action-based stories published in cheaply printed magazines from around 1900 to the 1950s, mostly in the United States.Pulp fiction gets its name from the paper it was printed on. Magazines featuring such stories were typically published using cheap, ragged-edged paper made from wood pulp. These magazines were sometimes called pulps.Pulp fiction created a breeding ground for new and exciting genres. Though the heyday of pulp fiction magazines has passed, their eye-catching covers and dramatic, fast-paced, and simple stories have left behind a legacy that can be seen in today’s movies, TV, books, and comics featuring action heroes and over-the-top villains

Jackson Mitchell
>>117402731Pretty sure in the books the most anyone would ever wear would be sheathes for swords and other weapons with some jewelry and other fancy things when in a fancy setting. Considering Burroughs other big character he created was the almost exclusively naked Tarzan I'm thinking he had a thing for nudity. Fun books all the same.

>>117417516One of my favorite things about the Tarzan and Princess of Mars books was how unapologetically masculine their protagonists were and their physiques definitely matched that. They were like the olden idols of legend like Hercules and the like that were meant to inspire men to be like them. Honestly wish I could find more books like them.

>>117421625Well that's what fantasy used to be all about. We were reading stories about heroic men and woman going on adventures. That demands a certain physic.

I don't know, guys. I just have a hard time getting my head wrapped around how people have even managed to make fantasy boring. "It's not relatable. It's not realistic." Where did imagination go? We used to dream about being heroes, now we can't get past page 1 if the heroes not already literally me.

>>117421764>if the heroes not already literally me.That's why John Carter is the only good isekai.
Nolan Clark
>>117421806That's the crazy part though. Even Isekai anime used to be a million times better. Used to be you'd take some people from our world, drop them in the strange world and give them a quest. Save a princess, stop an evil empire, destroy an unstoppable death ray. Some goal or quest were the normal people had to struggle, fight and grow as humans with actual emotions and arc that left them changed. Now it's just copy pasted reincarnation, track suit wearing gamer NEETs who get cheat powers from literal gods and everything in the world somehow resembles a video game or is loaded with Japanese shit even if it doesn't make sense. And it's all just an excuse to justify their NEETness not do a real stranger in a strange land story.

This thread has inspired me anons. What are some good comics in the vein of this thread? I've heard good things about Roy Thomas's Conan comics from the 70s. Ideally stuff that's easy to find or buy.Think I'm going to rewatch the 1982 Conan to start off Labor Day weekend.

>>117421874They did become MMOs instead of just YA fiction.
Ryan Gonzalez
Yeah we should have more pulp threads, this was nice.

>>117403043Current Dejah isnt too bad.
Nathaniel Cook
The movie wasn't even bad. It did a great job telling a story that has been copied, parodied, and plagiarized so much.

Wasn't there a Solomon Kane movie at one point?

>>117422611Yep. The books can get pretty edgy too. But they're still great fun.
