Mags, easy on the purplepills.
>>143360695The irony of this page after Hickman fucked off and the state other writers left Krakoa in
How would he deal with hamas?
>>143360695Its funny how this page, basically telling the reader "We will do what conspiracy theorists say we do", was meant to be a prelude to an actual comic book where mutants fuck with world economies. But apparently it was cancelled because no writer could make that concept remotely enjoyable or even understandable to the average person.
>>143360959>biznesss Krakoa book>yep, give it to Tini HowardDo you think half a dozed other writers passed before they got to her, or editorial just thought 'fuck it, this ain't gonna sell anyway, Tini's cheap, and if it tanks, maybe we can stop giving her Excalibur relaunches'?
>>143360695Quit screwing around and poison his food.
>>143360695Of course they had a Jewish old man say this.
>>143360695Mutants are weak and they only get away with so much because the rest of the universe ignores them. Hulk at moderate strength would tear through Magneto like wet tissue paper. Whenever the X-Men piss off Spider-Man he mops the floor with them. Most of them are no more durable than an average human and could easily be shot to death.

>>143361006This is actually a really goody way of No-Prizing why the X-books seem like their own continuity most of the time. Like Apocalypse, his Hishorsemen and the big flying pyramid they rode up in are a quiet afternoon for the Fantastic Four, Dr. Strange could handwave away Belasco or Selene, telepath jamming tech is standard SHIELD issued equipment, Spidey can beat down any given frontline X-team solo, and most of Wolverine's rogues gallery can and have got their asses handed to them by the likes of Daredevil and Iron Fist.The rest of the 616 mostly just leaves the mutants alone to rag on each other, because in-universe they're not really a threat to anyone else.
>>143360975considering Tini mostly got the Excalibur job because of Hickman she was probably offered it first after himto be fair to her I doubt any other writers who currently work at Marvel(or DC) could have made superhero financial drama work since you do need to explain to the reader complex financial systems which they might be unfamiliar with in a succinct format which isn't what most if any writer at the big two wants to do or are good at. hell, the closest I can think of would be the Spice and Wolf Manga and that was adapting LN source material.
>>143361083What's even the deal with writers like Tini Howard, and later Steve Orlando. Are they just cheap and reliable re: dealines and doing what editorial want them to? Surely there's got to be someone better for the same price writing fanfic. Like they're not even Tom Taylor, middling writer with annoying, outspoken politics, they're just bad. And not even the funny kind of Chuck Austen bad, boring bad, the worst kind of bad.
>>143361050Vulcan was the last X-villain that was a true blue threat outside of the X-orbit and that was mostly dude to him having the most horseshit powerset short of a reality warper
>>143361083>the closest I can think of would be the Spice and Wolf Manga and that was adapting LN source material.Lets be honest if you were reading that manga you were there more for Kouime Keito's art, besides the economic shit wasn't THAT important compared to the drama surrounding it. The manga (like the LN) also simply had way more pages to be able to actually talk about that stuff, course a decent writer would make use of those dumbass data pages but Tini isn't a decent writer
>>143361163Networking, it's always networking. You can be cheap and reliable but if you don't suck the right dick (literally and figuratively )you ain't getting a job
>>143361163Tini got her work if we believe random people on youtube Like Perch mostly due to be easy to work with and hitting her deadlines on time unlike some other writers
>>143361190none of the writers really used the data pages well outside of Hickman, Gillan and Ewing, they all devolved into pages of prose to just shovel some generic exposition in less page space for the other writers
