Another one bites the dust at Marvel

Solicits for Marvel in September were released
And the Unstoppable Wasp is nowhere to be seen indicating its August issue will be its last, Moon Girl is also said to be concluding in its 23rd issue.

America is still keep going and likely will last as long as Hellcat, since Riveira is a cheap-ass ho like Kate Leth and Wasp's author probably demanded a raise like BP:The Crew's author and Chelsea Cain.

They will also apparently retire Captain Falcon unless if I am not mistaken and this is part of Generations.

It also seems they will keep Whor for a loooong time. Despite Marvel making Carol Danvers their own Wonder Woman, Whor is technically their biggest female character in terms of sales since she has sold comparetively better than Carol, whose most recent issue was over at 17,000 copies.

10/10

>America continues
>that means more America story-times

Kill me now.

I wouldn't celebrate Moon Girl just yet.


There's usually a "FINAL ISSUE" in final issue solicits. I don't see one on this.

I wish we'd get a terrorist attack on Marvel's HQ already.

Meh. As a kid I'd be all over Moon Girl.

What's Gwenpool sales been like recently?

This is just a small victory. Marvel will continue to be shit and Legacy will be even worse than just a half-assed Rebirth. At this point its too late for them to improve and they have absolutely nobody that can save their company. Either pic related or Brian Michael Bendis are the most likely people to become Editor in Chief next.

Marvel doesn't really do that. They usually just let you find out by a book not being solicited.

Somehow this bitch flew under my radar.

Pure cancer.

...

Gwen Poole is such a great character, she doesn't deserve such shitty parents.

How can they make a /fit/ girl and make it look ugly?

JUST

Well if you weren't giving money to Marvel before, now's a good time to write them off as any. I don't normally play the white genocide card but she's a cunt. Also Sharia laws biggest selling point is no loan or credit interest? I just don't rack up my debt. I'd prefer being responsible with my money over some raghead stabbing me for some slight.

It would make a decent animated series pitch in the early 2000's or late 90's

She pays no bills and lives a cushy life of video games and comic books. She lives in a comfort zone where she constantly makes excuses to not try harder and never commits to anything. Her parents only want to see she escaping from this deadly spiral of self-pity and decay.

...

Her dad literally wants her to stop being a NEET. Her parents actually do love her.

Aww, that was actually pretty sweet.

Okay, I take it back, I judged him too quickly based on that one little outburst. It's actually pretty understandable that he's so frustrated.

I'd laugh if that happened.

That would actually be kind of funny. Jihadi's don't exist in the marvel universe if I recall.

...

Fuck, bring back Jim Shooter

the art is also the best art out of all the new series.

Studio Gurihiru.

They're the ones who made that cute version of squirrel girl, the version we wanted, not the downsie squirrel girl we got.

If the concept was actually executed properly then sure.


I take it the America threads will be the new Hellcat threads we used to have.


That's so sweet.

doesn't down syndrome squirrel girl cost like 2 sandwiches and a nickle to make?

and a blowjob

She looks like a 15 year old boy. I don't think she's the one giving blowjobs.

If Bendis becomes Editor in Chief, Eddie Brock will be killed and raped. If Sana Amanat becomes Chief, Eddie will either convert to Islam or get killed and replaced by a Muslim.

God dammit.

Venom is better.

You forgot to mention the part that its creators are all freelancers: No Marvel employees are behind it. Even the editor's importance is questionable as Hastings did fine without one for a decade.

….Did she just diss on Waypool?

Yeah…Marvel went to shit when Shooter left in what? 80's? 90's?

Fuck this bitch, her dad is right, her life is cushy and her problems are fucking minuscule.

...

fucking cover

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

Either way, Brockfag stays on the board.
Lose/lose situation to me.

...

...

Fuck all this SJW shite.
You can't sustain a company with this.

breddy gud

Kind of strange that she'd want to live in the Marvel universe when she's the only good comic in it though.

Now thats a new angle on an old cliché.

Like with Rebirth Shazam!, Gwenpool had to go ahead and remind me that comics can be good if PEOPLE GAVE A FUCKING SHIT!

Man, she's adorable. Could've done without the pink hair though.

realistically speaking, living in the marvel universe would be the worst thing ever, and if i ever ended up there, all i would do is pray to return here.

Pray to return to your dead end life of shitposting and being forever alone?

The terror of the MCU is more merciful than facing the horror that is our reality.

The face is that turns me off the most because its the most manly looking face from that angle.


Well if you weren't giving money to Marvel before, now's a good time to write them off as any.
I would considered if they dropped the identity politics or contained it to certain titles, but they can't help themselves. The X-Men Gold title which they used as an example of heroes going back to basics and dropping politics immediately tackled the topic of deportation. This is just one example of many… The determination of them to keep these Tumblr characters that many people love writing about online, but never buy it, will remain so long as people like these are still employed. No point in giving Marvel any money if hacks like this raghead, Jason Aaron or Mark Waid are still employed


Wait is this real? Is this in the actual comic or is it an edit?

I would've liked it a fair bit, were it not associated with venomous cunts in my mind. It's a shame that something that can add so much visual appeal to a character has become a symbol of empty rebellion and shitty personalities.

Well, let's see.

Dead end life and being forever alone vs being powerless in a world where people can blow things up if they think hard enough

give me super powers then dump me in there…

Someone should storytime Hastings' previous book, Longshot Saves The Universe.
It's pretty good before it goes completely lolrandom, but I think he learned his lesson there before he did Gwenpool.
A couple of good moments, like Longshot using his luck power to get a free haircut, but he looks really nervous that the kickback from using his power selfishly means he's going to have to fuck the hairdresser.
And Reed and Tony driving a truck with some handwavium McGuffinite, and "Get Lucky" comes on the radio, and Reed's like, "I like this song, what is it?" and Tony just looks at him, and he says "I've been to FOUR weddings this month and they played this at ALL of them.".

Or maybe they should just storytime Dr. McNinja.

Honestly, if I had that power…I'd jump into some doujins or a universe where I don't get killed easily or the stories are so comfy that you don't want to leave.

Their creative director advocates wiping out whites. They're never going to change.

That's going to be a tough one. Name one good Marvel book right now..I mean, really good.

Nothing worth buying

You don't need to be white or Holla Forums to find that shit offensive either tfw huelander.

Dude, I'm from some South East Asian country..and even I think that's bloody offensive.

If anyone but Gurihiru was drawing this, it wouldn't be half as good, but I've gotta hand it to them.. Marvel is publishing at least one good comic.

America is really that bad or anyone here never ready a issue?

We've had storytime threads for every issue. It's perhaps one of the most disjointed, poorly conceived, half-assed, self-righteous piece of shit comics ever put to paper. No exaggeration.

I've read America. I story-timed the first issue of America.

America is absolutely soul-crushing. Reading it feels like you lose a part of yourself in the process.

Gwen can be considered a superbeing since she take advantage of knowing about everyone backstory and preventing comicbooks chiches.

GP is created to be MCU Deadpool since she came when Sony still owned Spiderman for complete and she isn't related with Deadpool or Gwen Stacy.

Christopher Hastings you're a sneaky bastard


>Gwen Hastings can be considered a superbeing good writer since she takes advantage of knowing about everyone's backstory and is preventing comicbooks chiches
Fixed

We can start with a page he took down after staying up for April fools

Or Halloween, can't remember exactly which one

It's too much to hope that she just gets cancelled when Hastings/Gurihiru leave the book, huh? After that she's doomed to an eternity of shitty movies and shittier comics.

The Marvel universe truly is a horrible place to live.

Who knows. Maybe Gurihiru ends drawing every marvel comic to unshit them.

what if she's inside a comic book inside another comic book

And meets the black freighter?

Also: I've drawn such 4th wall fuckery into a comic when I was 15… but way shittier and more autist, so that's that…

See this you can market towards little girls. Hell, I would've been reading it as a little boy. The art is cute and aesthetically pleasing.

Yet squirrel girl is the garbage they're trying to target to kids?

Damn this is good. I haven't read some of the recent issues before this but how did she get back to her own universe? Was it Dr Strange's doing since he helped her get acclimated to the Marvel universe?


That still wouldn't make the books good because they have shitty writing.

b8


that's latest issue

God, I loved these last 2 Gwenpool issues.
It's like Grant Morrison got covered in pink paint

So the only good thing in Marvel right now have no influence from actual Marvel?

The only good artists I've seen Marvel use has been Asians.

She is breaking the 16th wall

WHOOOOOO

Somewhere in Marvels universe, there's a team of Deadpools fighting a losing war against Bendis text.


Marvel probably does want to go back before the politics bullshit but they're too infested with Tumbler that there's no one left with brain matter.


If she's anything like she was in the Young Avengers Style>Substance comics; she's worse. She's a mixture of everything wrong with Marvel today but focused into one uber being of mary suedom. America has a massive ego that everyone puffs ups even bigger, she was given enough power to make fighting an Asgardian god an afterthought, she's a gay minority woman who came from a dimension that only has gay minority women (may not be all minorities), and hasn't had a story yet that I've heard good things about outside of people in the Tumbler community.

She's probably a fan from just before everything went to hell. She's stuck in there now, so she probably hasn't run into Squirrel Girl, Hellcat, Mockingbird, America, Moon Girl, Iron Heart, Informed Attribute I Love Science Wasp, and Legacy Hawkeye Except Actual Hawkeye Is Still Alive Hawkeye enough to realise how bad their comics are.

If she actually read the comics now, she'd probably defect to DC or Archie or Sluggy Freelance or something.

Gwen is cute! She's cute!

This need to fuck with a person on a fundamental level is disturbing, what the fuck is wrong with that person

Why do people think this Babylonian shit is cool

TOP TO BOTTOM, LEFT TO RIGHT

honestly with Gwenpool her being a fan is irregardless of what's being published at Marvel

I'm sure at the time she'd be a fan of Onslaught, Avengers Disassembled , Kevin Smith's Spider-Man/Black Cat.
She just happens to exist in this shit era of many

Holy shit. Things at Marvel are even worse than I thought.

...

Then you're a faggot who needs to leave

Let Gwen into your heart user.

she's too tomboyish. you like your grillz looking like boys?

you dont?

Spidermans girlfriend is a superhero now?

Yes, but that's not her, there's just a lot of Gwens in the marvel universe for some reason.

Gwen is shit

IS SHE STILL COMPLAINING?!
Man this writer makes the most believable female characters

...

Meh. I dunno. It's still incredibly forced. Gwenpool is an awful concept by design.

It feels like the artwork is doing an incredible amount of heavy lifting for very mediocre and hack dialogue.

And I just can't find her "Cute". Is there a word for what feels like its baiting cuteness and when you do so the character stops being cute and starts being insufferable?

Cute-Bait? Yeah this is cute bait. Cuteness works on innocence, and the second it becomes sorta corporate, it starts being insidious.

I think it still falls under waifubait.

B-b-but…
Waifubait isn't real!

This is waifubait. Fapbait, even.

No, THIS is.

Nomás no lo postee en español, user. No vaya a ser que triggereemos a algún incauto

Nah Cutebait and Lolibait, and Waifubait are separate beasts.

Because Of something I feel is deeply wrong in society, those wires are getting crossed in people's minds. Nothing compliments fetishes like more fetishes. That's why the furry community is also the ones that just intermingle with all the other fetishes.

But waifubait does tend to have cutebait. Its very easy to make attractive people to a very vulnerable internet dwelling demographic with bad social skills.


Gwenpool reeks of Cutebait more then Waifubait.

They're all the same things; pulling at your heartstrings.

Believe it or not, not every emotion is related to your dick, which is where they differ.

How in the fuck is Whor even getting sales ?

Really it BARELY is. Thats still SHIT. Its king of the shit pile.

Her room has a lot of Poz-Marvel merchandise lying around it (Whor poster, Miles Morales plush, Ms. Mudslime doll, whor plush, Spider-Gwen plush etc.

I doubt she ever had taste in comics.

Loliconism and Waifushittery isn't expressly them pulling at your dick; otherwise I could say the same for cuteshit since the only time there's no chance of them trying to lure people by their libidos is when it's just a bunch of animals (doesn't count if it's western).


Did she ever get her cancer cured?

Sure Like I said. Just they pull at different elements still. There is a pretty harsh difference between "Product with Cute Child" and "Product designed to appeal to really deranged fetish".

I'm not a fan. It's unsettling, manipulative, very repetitive and poorly written. Like a porno for a very specific subset of people. The kind of people that say:

Id just wish those people would say "It apeals to my fetish/ Waifushitery desire". Feels much cleaner and honest to me.

Who fucking knows man. Marvel explicitly said:
"Continuity? We will follow it when were bothered too"

That's why all the comics have this nightmarish stream of consciousness too them.

I don't know how is this possible, but on the flip side, the true Thor is actually selling more than her in "Unworthy Thor". Its only a 10,000 difference mind you. But this doesn't make sense, this book shouldn't have any right of selling more than Carol Danvers… Who is even buying this stuff?


If they do get rid of the cancer, they will lose their "drawing card", about what makes her so appealing and empowering to cancer survivors.

That kind of reminds me of that engineer chick from Firefly is supposed to be the cute one who is the heart of the team but it comes off as so false and forced.

All that dandruf in her dirty ass hair and on her sweater, Ew.

If I had to put my finger on it I would say probably someone very wealthy is buying them to make them appear to be selling, when in fact they are just going into a dumpster. People who make propaganda usually don't care if what they make actually sells.

I was dodging Gwenpool before because everything i'd heard about it made me think it fell into the same retarded LOLSORANDUMB cancer that Deadpool (and was only slightly more self-aware of it because of things like ). But reading this is actually sorta…focused. There's a plot going on, the characters actually feel like characters instead of strawmen, political pedestals, or garbage comic relief. I actually wanna read more.


God help me, I think I'm actually having hope for a comic in current year.

yes. yes it is.
In some way or form you feel something to motivate you to continue your DNA


it's decent enough,
I know a lot felt the same as you do.
It doesn't feel right,
I almost think it's a dream and the real Gwenpool comic is talking about how turbonerds from her dimension are such icky pigs or some shit

You like it because she's a cute girl, well drawn.

Just remember: Everyone making it is a freelancer. Marvel is still shit.

Gwen Poole is cute, but her costume is still terrible.

But is it better than all their other recent costume changes?

These are far and away the best issues of the series but most of the rest of it is good. Just be warned that there's the occasional fill-in artist story (usually lasting around two issues) which are pretty much "we pulled this artist from Tumblr" levels of art. Kind of sucks because the Miles story isn't bad and the one-off Halloween/vampire issue is pretty good but the art on both of them ranges from weak to bad.

The only issues I'd outright avoid are the ones where she goes to LA and meets Hawkcunt and Robbie Reyes; just read up what the end result is because the fill-in art is atrocious and it's very obviously a story at least partially pushed on Hastings (what with using Robbie right around the time he was appearing on AoS) and it's obvious that he doesn't care at all for it.

Wasp will most likely get a relaunch title when the next shitty Ant Man movie comes out (because these comics are now sadly nothing more than movie ads to the heads at Marvel) and I most likely see Ms America lasting for at least 23 issues before getting shit canned due to low sales.

The one book that shocks me that is still going is Almighty Whor, kinda figured with the third Thor movie coming out this year that Marvel would finally cancel this shitty low selling turd of a series and go back to basics, but they seem committed to shitting on and destroying all their old non feminist approved heroes' histories.

It's almost as if writing something that essentially followed standard monthly comic format and working your way up from nothing minis and event tie-ins over a number of years better prepares you for writing a comic for the Big Two than simply being plucked from Tumblr or some other social media site because you happen to be a mystery meat vagina haver.

I really hope that Marvel doesn't fuck over Hastings like they did with Brian Clevinger. Clevinger had been in basically a similar position where Hastings is now with Marvel and was given an opportunity to do an all-ages Captain America book called Captain America: The Fighting Avenger (funny enough, with Gurihiru on art). It was supposed to be an ongoing… then got downgraded to a 4-issue mini… then 2 issues… then they just combined both issues into a one-shot. They basically did all of this without really telling him what was going on and he more or less found out around the same time readers did. He wasn't too happy with it. The last thing I remember him doing was a Big Hero 6 story in Ends of the Earth. This was pre-movie so it's when they were still a pretty embarassing "this is Japanese, right?" style group and he wanted to heavily revamp them to make them not shit because of it. Marvel refused to let him do it, he decided there was no point in fighting it, did the story and I don't think he's written for Marvel since.

...

SOMEBODY SAY CANCER?!?!?!?

For fuck's sake, is Odin "Thor" now too?!

No.

Swedenfag here. One of the big appeals of Marvel's Thor comics was how they took classic Norse mythology tales and reappropriated them with a Marvel Comics spin, but for someone who grew up with all the Norse mythology stories in school, it was pretty fun to see what they did with the classic tales, and how much they actually influenced what went on in Thor.
Now, Marvel don't even follow their own fucking rules, let alone anything to do with mythology, and just throw around THE GUY'S FUCKING NAME as a title to anyone who happens to want it. I'd cry tears of rage if I actually gave a remote shit about this terrible company anymore, but thankfully they've put a spot to that long ago.

stop*, not spot.

Fug, I was hoping for some weaponised autism.

Gwenpoole is alright. Maybe 6.5/10? It's not going to go down as a classic, but it's alright to waste a bit of time to read it every week and not feel like you've been let down.

So now we have Fat Thor too?

Okay that's better…. BUT STILL REALLY RETARDED!

How is it better? We have 3 Thors now.

My favourite story was when odin drank the semen of hanged men.

It's better than Odin being "Thor".

Know what pisses me the most about Jane? We already have a female Thor and her name is literally Thor Girl

That and the whole "I don't want to be cured of cancer because fuck you"

She should be fat

If Thor wasn't a steaming pile of shit before, it is now.

Wonder how long it will take them to disown Loki and throw his name around too. Disgusting.

That cover makes me want America Chavez to sit on my face.

They'd probably just genderswap him again.


I hope your face disowns you.

The cancer thing is one of the worst pieces of writing to ever appear in any medium.

The author took the real phenomenon of a person who doesn't want to suffer or leave their family in poverty, or whatever. And then tries to do that noble sacrifice in a situation where it doesn't work and isn't noble.

That's what happens when a stupid person get married to an idea and refuses to let it go even when it doesn't fit. Just more proof that Marvel needs real editors.

Yeah, it's like he had this idea of "she have cancer and the cancer gets worse when she transforms" but people pointed out the Marvel universe have many ways to cure cancer, and instead of going back and trying to think of something else he tried to write his way around it, but just made the character look like a horrible human being.


I mean, what the fuck?

Or is it?

Best case scenario: Whor dies.
Worst case scenario: Jane Foster dies, but Whor keeps on living.

Sadly, not even a recent thing.

BRAVO MARVEL

...

I like it because I like 4th wall stuff.
Reminds me a lot of Morrison's work.

I thought the art was girly and gay at first but it's grown on me with how technically good it is
The writing is decent enough

Why do you listen to a jew?

You can thank hipsters for that.

Thanks to Gurihirus art, I just associate it with Pink Lemonade candy.

...

As a huge fan of Mar-Vell, this is what pisses me off the most.
Anyway, not that any of this sounds that unlikely, but where are you getting it from?

Cuckchan

Not unless they want the mouse to kick their teeth in for fucking with a movie character.

Woooooaaahhh…
…hhy did my original picture seemed highly likely?

I thought they killed her off along with Bruce.

Was Flashes sidekick a little girl too?

got an explanation for this?


see pics

Lotta claims there. It's scary I could imagine all of that and more happening in Marvel right now.

I don't know the specific but Bendis really hates Hickman's guts. Bendis is not in good terms with many people that Marvel works such as Dan Slott, because he really wants to kill Peter so that Miles can replace him permanantly, but Slott will not allow him.

Pfthahahahahahaha
Lets see Brockfags justify this shit now.

Knowing Bendis, Hickman probably slighted one of his waifus.

If any of that is true…

Who gave Brian Benis that much power over fucking everything ?

He rose to power with around the time the 2000s Avengers started and then the company went to shit so technically he may be the only person with anything close to skill in comic making left since everyone left or got canned.

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT. MARVEL, I THOUGHT YOU WERE TURNING A CORMER, YOU MORHER FUCKING BASTARDS!!!!! RREEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like seeing ms. muslim in pain.

Hahaha, how'd you get in here you little kike?

Some of this stuff might be incorrect. Steve and Iron Man dying contradicts with the narrative of classics being restored. Everything else though sounds believable.

The only remotely good thing about that post was She-Hulk is apparently returning to normal since SJWs have no interest in her anymore.


Look Hitler, that should be an indicative of how horrible everyone else hired by Marvel is given that Bendis is the best thing they have going for right now.

Nigger, they have Gerry Conway working for them. Bendis is literally one of their worst writers, he's Leth tier.

Who do you think you're fooling?

Selective dyslexia is a bitch.
Honestly don't know of anyone left from before Tumbler replaced everyone

Since Marvel won't try to bring in actual new talent (not tumblr tier shit) and chased off all the other writers who might have challenged Bendis' reign as king of the shit heap like Brubaker or Hickman, he's still their biggest draw. He's been there forever and roughly as long as Alonso has been there, so I'm sure he's done nothing but kissing ass and I'm sure every time he re-signs with he uses his Jew-fu to get more power over the MU.
While I have some doubts of this shit, he's shown time and time again he has a huge ego and has basically copped to fucking with other writers in the past.

This sounds like bullshit. But I believe it.

Oh shit are you serious?

I hope its true that Bendis really shat the bed with Civil War II this badly he is desperate to save face by doing another event, but knowing that cuck, he most likely has no regrets.
