One you may or may not be able to talk about!
He's great on street-tier, but it was Bendis that got me back into comics after the 90s burst with Avengers Disassembled. I blame Marvel more than he for his low-quality recent offerings. I'm mostly...
Focus groups aren't what influenced the creative decision to make Hulk's pants purple. All I'm sayin', Mr. Hollywood. :cool:
Ang Lee took audience feedback into making Hulk's pants purple. I had the pleasure of joining Jon Favreau's Facebook group during the production of the first Iron Man where he explicitly engaged fans...
Storge 4 lyfe.

If you want to get really nerdy with it, I enjoy looking at superheroes with RPG characteristics.
Superman:
+Brawling
+Strength
-Magic Resistance
-Mental Attacks
Batman:
+Martial Arts
If she were bulletproof why even use bracelets/gauntlets to shield herself? Protecting others is great but blocking bullets from hitting her person is part of her iconography wouldn't you agree?
Funny, back in the 90's I was pretty stoked that Storm was running her own X-Men squad. That's a far cry from Ms. America Chavez beating up white people on college campuses, but hey I guess that's...
I remember picking up Totally Awesome Hulk thinking the concept was anything but. I was already resigned to the state of Marvel comics and had already dropped all their titles yet still found myself...
I guess everyone that read this "misinterpreted" it as well. Literally vilify anyone that disagrees with a 3rd-wave feminist online as if they were attacking a Suffagette. It wouldn't be the author...

"DC does diversity better." I say this and do read them. As sales have reflected, others do as well. Lesbian Batwoman never stole anything from Bruce. Minority Lanterns didn't erase Hal. Chinese...
Savage AF but equally fair. Marvel's been limping along using Star Wars as a crutch since going all in pushing faux-progressivism while alienating the very fans that have supported them for decades....
Prissy Taco Bell Lady: What would you say if I called you a brutish fossil, symbolic of a decayed era gratefully forgotten?
John Spartan: I don't know... thanks?

Lobo and Waller were a couple of New 52's biggest sins. Happy to see the Main Man and the Wall back in proper form.
Gee, that article title isn't flamebait at all... She's mostly saying only a woman could relate to telling that kind of story while that headline Julia Bianco uses purposefully misleads the reader...
Am I supposed to start clutching my pearls or something?
The more Tara Strong the better. The more classic Batgirl all the better too.
Where in this case, if true, Rucka's sided with cultural authoritarianism, a practice I will always treat with repulsion regardless of where on the political spectrum it spawns.
If true I'm not sure if I want to be part of anything of Rucka's period, which is a shame because I was thrilled to support the return him and Liam Sharp. If Rucka has aligned himself with regressive...
I think it's an awesome celebration of Turner. It's done in music all the time so why not art? Taste will be subjective in the execution but remixing an art, so to speak, is not in itself an act...
It speaks volumes that they can't even resonate with you as the target demographic. I commend you for being forthright in your attitudes toward the title and the obvious tryhard approach Marvel...
Her current incarnation is the result of Carol being ran through so many social justice filters she's come out the other side as exciting as powdered milk. I don't expect Marvel's current climate to...
Make no mistake, if trends stay consistent with literally every year since they introduced the Captain Marvel concept, she'll drop to 20k readership necessitating yet another cancellation/relaunch...
Keep dreamin'. Whatever this is that Marvel is today will have to run its course before we see anything that resembles that version of the character. That beloved Carol will be all but a memory once...
