Minorities in Comics and Other Media, etc

I thought this was just the party/disco/disguise look????

Man....every time I see her, the Dave Chappelle version of Rick James pops in my head.

Who says they're making him disappear?

If a character can beam around the earth in 20 seconds at the first sign of crisis... and he doesn't show up when there is something major going on... he is magically disappeared.

Look at the (dumb) people who complained that SHIELD didn't show up instantly when Malekith crashed in London out of the blue or when the President was captured in IM3... and SHIELD doesn't have super speed lol

That's why you diversify your product as well as your cast -- Disney knows the formula (television, music, film, games, internet, etc) so Marvel is in good hands.

And let's not forget that Sony -- who used to own the rights to Spider-Man -- is no second-rate player when it comes to the video game department.

.

Sony is the one that pushed this game (stunning). Disney doesn't seem to care much about video games for whatever reason.

Maybe she's fleeing the party. Also, if she's new to Earth she may not know the difference between an Earth party outfit and normal wear.

That woudl just make it her normal ((stupid) outfit then ...

They care about $$$ -- they just don't (or didn't) know what they were doing... which is why Sony, Insomniac and Marvel took the lead on this project.

"Disney Interactive Studios has lost more than $200 million per year from 2008–2012 during a period in which it shut down Propaganda Games, Black Rock Studio and Junction Point Studios and its co-president John Pleasants stepped down in November 2013 after the launch of Disney Infinity.

On March 6, 2014, 700 employees were laid off.""

Sometimes good management is all about knowing when to step back and let the pros go to work.

Not necessarily. She could wear it now knowing it isn't normal and then ditch it later.

This is reason #33453432 why Parker gets so much special treatment everywhere. i'll be really curious what happens with the mcu contract runs out

What is with that hair?

Why this curly sh!t?

Anna Diop is a beautiful woman, the producers should have done a little more to bring out her natural looks within the "alien" stuff.

Those Jonathan Belle images are a site to behold.

I remember when haters were going on about how Val was taking the spotlight from Power Girl. Both of them are collecting dust. They are two totally distinct individuals. If anything, they enhanced each other with their opposing personalities.

A part of me hopes that Bendis takes notice of Val, but time will tell.

DC could do such much with Val to further expand the Superman.

I know right, it was mind boggling to me because the time he was in the spotlight, PG wasn't even there. She was still on Earth 1, and yet when the she did appear in Earth 2, that's when the new writer came in and decide to trash him to bits. And yet somehow he was getting the spotlight even though he somehow became a kryptonian jobber. It really just goes to show you how asinine the comic book demographic can be, but it's no different than any fandom really.


And I'm hoping for the same. To be honest, if anyone can take Val to new heights, it would be Bendis. He's enough of a blank slate that Bendis can really expand his mythos, and he's pretty much the only writer on DC side who has a history of making minority characters successful sellers.


Combine that with Krypton making the Zod family black, and literally all the signs are indicating to pull the trigger on Val Zod, DC just needs to be willing to do it.

We have a trailer for The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina




And is it just me or was was this trailer's rendition of "Happy Birthday" less scary than the one Betty sang to Jughead in Riverdale?

I eventually dropped it due to lateness, but the comic was pretty creepy ( despite not being explicit). It was almost like an old Hammer horror film.

Yes, yes YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

Ahmed guy is legit.

Blackbolt was one of the best books in the market and I’ve really enioyed his work.

[MindofShadow]

Agreed.

At worse, this is gonna be a good 12 issue story that you can say, "go get the Ahmed story" afterwards to new readers.

I like Miles and I still have a hard time recommending one story due to how Bendis writes lol

This is one long night




Costume person should be fired immediately

[Vic Vega]

It looks like Walt Disney tried to do a remake of RENT but with High Schoolers.

I'll never say anything bad about the peeps that do costumes for the Arrowverse again.

I wasn't expecting Ahmed. He never stuck me as a the type for a Spider-Man book, at least a more "classic" teen Spidey book like he's aiming for with Miles.

I guess that annual was meant to test the waters for him on a Spidey book.

Agreed.

Just on the Spider-Man name alone this will probably be one of Ahmed's longer-running Marvel books.

Y'know, usually by this point if characters have actual Superhero costumes, now is the time to reveal them instead of having Robin just standing around with people in a bunch of weird civilian outfits who dye their hair.
