moore is right about comics, despite the decades-long attempts by the comics media to find a way of misquoting him that proves him wrong once and for allquote:MOORE: I’m not so interested in comics anymore, I don’t want anything to do with them. also quote:He’s also not a fan of the current UK or U.S. political regimes, particularly Donald Trump, or “National Socialist satsuma”, as Moore refers to him. lol

Was it Moore - or another major comics writer - who said that comics could be about anything (crime, romance, historical, drama ...) but instead they're largely about lycra clad fascist musclemen?

I mean comics literally did until the Comics Code caused a mass extinction event of genres outside of superheroes and whatever would pass for them

I don't think they believed Watchmen would end superheroes, they thought superheroes were on the decline already and Watchmen was commentary on a dying genre.

Ghost Leviathan posted:I mean comics literally did until the Comics Code caused a mass extinction event of genres outside of superheroes and whatever would pass for them It also led to the enduring primacy of the Archieverse, which itself led inevitably to gritty Archie runs and Sonic The Hedgehog comics, much to the delight of the largest, dampest eternal children. This successful grasp at nerd money left on the table may have also encouraged that Flintstones comic where Fred has ptsd from all of the genociding he did during the Cro-Magnon Pogroms. I have no further point here, because it’d mean reading some of these comics to form a better opinion, and I don’t want to. mysterious frankie has issued a correction as of 17:12 on Oct 11, 2020 |

Just "The Flintstones"? Not "a People's Pre-History of Bedrock" or something?

Wilma talking about her art and how it's inspired by her childhood and how Fred starts to understand her more through it is pretty memorable

disney comics being super popular in europe to the point that they basically invented the entire donald duck extended universe is extremely funny to me since scrooge mcduck is a household name because of the tv show that was based on the comics but nobody in the united states has any notion the tv show was based on anything and probably dont even realize there is such a thing as disney comics on the complete flip side in the korean market the new cartoon is literally just marketed as the adventures of donald ducks family and no it doesnt sound any less ridiculous in korean

It's also kinda nuts how influential the old comics are; Indiana Jones' famous cold open sequence is literally based on a Scrooge McDuck comic. While the new show is just referencing the comics wildly, including characters that have never shown up in English media like Fethry Alhazred posted:Outside of the US there's also few superhero comics. I know that people have repeatedly tried to publish american superhero comics in Norway, but they just don't sell. While on the other hand The Phantom routinely outsells Marvel and DC combined in Australia

New cartoon being Ducktales 2017? If so, their marketing is accurate and the show is extremely good and you should watch it if you like excellent cartoons and either can do so without giving Disney money or don't care.
