How would certain characters sell if they weren't flooding A-list talent at them consistently and using them in important stories. When a run doesn't work they don't cancel the book they throw new creative team at it and new direction some characters become almost new characters. I mean lets make Horror book about a character that can't die at night, powers come from hell and is amazingly strong does that sound like the Incredible Hulk to you? Or a brand new character concept?
You hit on the reason why I am not tripping about Captain Marvel push because that is how you are suppose to push a character. Shuri numbers aren't good you aren't suppose cancel and never see the book again, Nah drop a top creative team and new number 1 and try again ,put her in a team book, give her import roles in cross over stories. Captain Marvel is care you give to new IP and pretty funny it is also care give to old IP how many times do you need see them cancel the punisher, ghost rider, Moon Knight , Iron Fist, Dr Strange, or Blade projects. And Bringing it back to Black Panther how much better would his sales be if they were dropping all star artists and writers on the book that they throw at say Batman.
They can push down your throats that Captain America is the greatest hero in the world no problem but they change the formula and now people notice it is a problem?
