Kinda hard to get emotionally invested anyways, considering there's a billion and one different versions of him. It's the same with every superhero essentially. There essentially is no character since it's constantly being rebooted with changes. 3 minutes ago, seaturtlehorsesnake said: i'm going to be honest, everything i know about spiderman comes from the song.

And I'm a bit tired to be doing any of it but have the laundry started. Hope everyone is having a more productive day than I am! I hope it's all going well, but you missed a prime opportunity. Had you let Likely Guy steal you van, he would've had to do the cleaning out. Then, when he was done, you could've stolen it back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, there's the core elements that get reinterpreted. But it's not much different than Doctor Who or James bond. Everyone has their favorite. Except lately Marvel has just decided to say screw it and throw out the parts people like and make everyone act like complete psychos. DC did that for a year or two then course corrected. Marvel made their flagship characters active psycho killers then blamed their falling sales on SJWs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I've stuck too closely to Japanese anime to really get into that sorta thing. It's a different world over there. With anime you simply have the original characters. There aren't any alternate renditions. Rather than rebooting with alternative versions of this and that, they just extend the series on forever and ever. That isn't without it's own problems, but you get what I mean. The original characters don't ever change. 4 minutes ago, ShadowSot said: But it's not much different than Doctor Who or James bond.

Partly for the same reasons. 5 minutes ago, ShadowSot said: Except lately Marvel has just decided to say screw it and throw out the parts people like and make everyone act like complete psychos.

I really only know all that I do about super heroes because my dad was super into them. They were never my thing. I really only care for the MCU, and a few other blockbusters, but beyond that I don't really care. 7 minutes ago, ShadowSot said: Marvel made their flagship characters active psycho killers then blamed their falling sales on SJWs. I have heard however the controversies over SJWs entering the comic book world and hitting it big time. It's a real shame. I blame a lot of the problems of the new Star Wars on SJWs infecting the series as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy, the bigfoot fanatics went wild over that one. I kind of remember that, and if I remember correctly, some doofus paid big, big money for it. I weep for humanity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blame the comics code authority. Now that it's repealed some of the smaller print stuff is able to get more of the market. 9 minutes ago, Aquila King said: I really only care for the MCU, and a few other blockbusters, but beyond that I don't really care I dunno if I care so much, as I get them for free and it's a way to kill time on a Wednesday. And the MCU is a good example of how to reboot a character but keep the core elements. 11 minutes ago, Aquila King said: have heard however the controversies over SJWs entering the comic book world and hitting it big time. Yeah, that's the claim made. But flat sales show that the ones that show any sort of SJW influence sell well (Thor, Spiderman Miles Morales). While the Flagship comics like Spiderman or Captain America sell badly. Because they're just written poorly or have plots no one cares about or actively dislikes. (Spiderman but actually Doc Ock, Captain America is secretly a member of Hydra and killing off Avengers) And these storyline play out for years now. People get tired of it. Then there's the business model Marvel has had for the last decade and change, where they relaunch with new numbering despite nothing actually changing on the books. And tie it into massive convulated cross overs. No one wants to read them, no one is really buying them. And as bad as the DC films are, they still release collected works the films are based on for sale. Marvel... Just does some weird collection thing tat doesn't really move. And Marvel has been making promises with comic book stores that they then renegade on and ignore. Those have a lot to do with their drops in sales. And I say that as a long term Marvel Zombie. It's already a bit inside baseball, but their sales have a lot more to do with crappy business practices and pushing out their writers and artists than SJW influence. As for Star Wars, theres other troubles. Too much humor. To much angst. Expectations versus the direction they went with. Plus Star Wars was never really that good in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
