He is right the gay thing is different as you are seeing an attempt to co op the gay panic arguments of the 80s. Which is weird. While the nick fury was just straight up not my fury.

Yeah legacy heroes are devalued by the existence of the original, as that is the whole point of legacy continuing where your predecessor left off.

To be fair it has nothing to do with profit per say, but risks. The big two are rather risk adverse which has hurt them just more subtly.

Wanderer posted:This is an argument you see a lot in nerd discussion, and it's always an argument that ignores the business side. If Marvel "just [made] new characters," those new characters would be DOA because they haven't been around for 25-plus years, with the notable exception of Kamala. Prove it, prove anything you just said.

PaybackJack posted:Ok so it's not a big mega event, but it's comparable to what Age of X? I mean it's still a decently sized event that spans three of the main X-Men titles. It's not like it's confined to it's own tiny corner of X-Men titles. But all the titles involved are X-men titles, what point do you think you are making.

You know outside of branding nothing changes with new number ones, everything prior is still canon and whether they build off the SQ or not is up to the writer. All that new number 1s really accomplish is get Marvel a little extra cash. It also makes jumping in harder unless you only care about the current writer, which it makes it a bit easier I guess?

twistedmentat posted:Hey, we want to give people a chance here, no way Batman could beat Squirrel Girl. Though Damian vs Kamala would be pretty good, and i thought of another Mera vs Medusa, and Star Lord vs Red Hood. While i don't like current Star Lord, comparing him to Red Hood is rude as gently caress.

BrianWilly posted:Like, when we got that vision of the Hulk killing everyone at the end of issue two, my assumption was that we'd get a series of events leading up over the next couple of issues towards that eventual outcome. Maybe it would even be the climax of the entire story, and only by looking back in retrospect would we think, "Ah, the mystery is finally revealed. This is how it came to be"...perhaps even as a self-fulfilling outcome of the vision itself or somesuch. Cause and effect. Buildup and resolution. Bendis has always had issues with plotting, big events just aren't a thing he should do. Considering they are basically all about plotting.

Toxxupation posted:It's not bait when the central theme of the X-Men is that they're a persecuted minority in constant crisis and under constant threat of extinction and the image shows X-Men in crisis and extinct. That's called thematic coherency. That is not a central theme really. I mean it has been since House of M but that is just a decade and it's been a really bad one for the X-men.

It was just beginning with 'this is the historical precedent that causes the current world' I was pointing out how dumb it was to use info that isn't relevant to try and make a point yes.

It was a story because a major character did something major. Sam is a gimmick that Marvel had been doing since the 80s and will do for the foreseeable future.This isn't hard.
