Hmmmm I hate the fact that after World War Hulk, hulk lost his memories and became dumb again... shyt is infuriating. I just wish for once, for once and forever someone at marvel Fuse Banner and Hulk into one being able to form thought and sentences. He doesnt even have to be smart as banner but kill off the hulk entity and let banner be the hulk forever if need be... it's tiring to see hulk do dumb shyt when they just wrote about him evolving and yet he's back to being a dumb b*stard again... WTF!?!?

I wish humans in the MCU stops hating mutants. there's no reason... You got demigods, evil demons, and intergalatic warlords coming for your planet and your concern is man who was born with wings, your fukked up in the head with your priorities.... and the most dumbest shyt no one has said out loud that to everyone is if you take away the X-gene they'd all be normal people!!!!!??? :mindblown:

I like wolverine but dont like the fact that he's given props from here to high heaven being leader of an xmen team when the leaders should be beast or storm... wolverine is supporting role.

I hate the fact that iceman doesnt get much shine considering his powers are omega level. they tend to write him as not potentially letting loose and showing his true power which is bullshyt....

I dont like the fact that the govt worked with full blown villans wanting to chase down heroes and persecute them for them doing the right thing... it's bullshyt. i get that the lines blurred but in reality if i have super powers you really think iron man is gonna show up to stop me when i can kill these senators that supported and made this bill in govt? You think iron man gonna protect everyone.

Will JJJ finally shut the fukk up about hating spiderman... please.

Storm is much bigger than Supergirl..especially in the last 20 years. It's not even really close. For some reason, Storm got depushed as they got rid of her after Jean Grey died and pushed Emma as the top female x character for YEARS...it took Bendis joining the franchise for her push to finally stop. And now Storm is everywhere again.



Supergirl as a character is more recognizable as being Super"Girl" simply because she's a girl that's dressed like superman.... but people know nothing about the character.

Alot of things are dressed like Superman but they don't sell and don't mean shyt. ESPECIALLY in t his day and age. Wonder Woman got passed by Storm back in 1994 ON PAPER and on the record.

we arent talking about sales.

When was the last time that Superman, THE most recognized comic book character in the history of the medium, had the highest selling comic? Or a movie that wasn't outsold by his comic book contemporaries?

when was the last time that Storm had a book of her own that lasted more than 12 issues?

Do you see how irrelevant your bringing up something like "sales" is?

Selling less or more of anything doesn't make something better or less than good.

You DO realize all that stuff "dressed like Superman" is there because of it's iconic brand recognition, REGARDLESS to how it sells....

:heh: right?

Read the event "52"

When I say that they have done stuff without Big Blue and Batman outside of 52, but when you compare it to Marvel who doesn't really have that Big 1 Big 2 feel that DC has (they got Spiderman and Wolverine but they ain't both at the front of things everytime something pops off like Supes and Batman), sometimes you just want to see what they'll do with other characters

Superman gets disrespected too much. He is the first American superhero. Its like today's rappers shyttin on KRS for being old and played out.

Many people subconsciously hate DC because although they may be "perfect," they strive to be better heroes and people. their origins, they made a lot of mistakes. A hell lot.

Marvel has a few of them like Cap and Black Panther, but they are overshadowed by the likes of Deadpool, Punisher, and dead Wolverine. Or anti-heroes run shyt.

I always interpreted Marvel as flawed people that have their readers thinking that it is OK to settle with mediocrity. That never settled with me very well after I hit 16.

Sounds like a one track assessment. Spiderman, the everyday hero, outsells everyone. There is a market for antiheroes but the hard working centerpiece still resonates and Peter gets his ass kicked alot. All of those overpowered god like DC characters are a little hard to take in any firm of logic or sense. Flash should be able to stop any threat...Batman is like Reed and Doom on the planning front. Always has a way out. Super girl and Superman? Come on. No damn earth threat is believable. It's no wonder a villain like Harley sells..it's different and edgy.

Comics are made to escape reality and give you an epic experience in another world. Spidey relates to people that are cool with everyday problems that can't get over with it. There is a reason why DC animation is head and heels above Marvel. I want to be :gladbron: when reading stories about epic characters and grand scope of stories, not like :ld: "that's cool" or the slightly better "that's gangsta" :obama:
