How did Absolute DC succeed where Ultimate Marvel failed?
>>152146706Ultimate's never coming back, anon
>>152146769Good. Ultimate's even worse.
Better handful of writer/artist teams that were allowed to take charge and weren't doing a gimmick like "Let's make time in the comic relative so it feels like a month really does pass each issue!" I loved UXM, USM was okay but fizzled, UBP took too long to get good, and Ultimate Wolverine is one of the worst comics from Marvel this year.That and Hickman wanted the out so bad after what happened with Krakoa. Editorial easily could've extended it but with Hickman and Peach not going beyond the 2 year limit, it didn't make sense for the rest to keep going.
The villainous council running the world actually does shit instead of sitting off in the background and maybe rubbing their hands and cackling evilly while drinking a champagne glass filled with the tears of orphans. The Joker, Ra's, Cale, Hammond, and Thawne all do shit in their books.In the Absolute Universe there's a kind of disturbing civility to how all the main antagonists of their books meeting up is treated as a business meeting, more or less. Most of the Maker's cronies are indistinguishable personality-wise beyond how cruel they are. Just compare One-Year In to Absolute Evil.
>>152146583>When DC and Scott Snyder talked up how Absolute Batman #1 was the highest selling comic of 2024 someone at Marvel told Rich Johnston that Ultimate Spider-Man #1 actually had higher sales, which was strange because Marvel usually can't shut up about how much better it's doing than DCThe fact that Marel would rather just not acknowledge Ultimate Spider-Man sales because MUH MARRIAGE shows how autistic Tom Brevoort is.
and why is there no retcon Superman and Batman?
>>152139063That's just basically Johns making Thaddeus Brown a full-on superhero
MOMMY
>>152146247Left anyone who likes the right is a faggot or tranny
>>152134926There is no consensus. There’s a loud sect of fans but there’s also a loud sect of detractors. Either one just says the other isnt genuine. For my money I hate it but it’s mostly because I hate the art. She’s too intentionally ugly and masculine but the people who like it seem to enjoy that. Make of that what you will.
>>152146247right

What is currently going on with vampires in Marvel and what do I need to read to catch up? Just McKay's Moon Knight and Blood Hunt?They started using glyphs yet? That shit was dope.
>>152141762How bad were sales on this?
>>152141762They retconned the Montesi Formula for THIS?
>>152142946I do
>>152145068you do?
>>152146110yes and?
Why did she never attain anywhere near Harley’s popularity?
>>152136134Gross. They ruin Livewire every time they lean too hard into the punk aesthetic.
>>152132776Wizard Magazine didn't influence anyone that Livewire was the greatest female character.
>>152141936>>152139676>>152140648Oh damn forgot magi did the best redesign of her, kind of love all of these. I do like her live wire self but her as a alt punk girl was so cute and sexo.Also why does this last one remind me of the cyberpunk people from saints row3. She's the new leader of the Deckers

Would Cruella have grounds to sue Roger over his diss track about her?
>>152146683Maybe then, but this is now, and we have artists making entire public feuds with Kendrick Lamar calling Drake a pedophile.
>>152146781at the end of the day the damaged party has to press the charges. there is no third party group who does it for you in civil cases.
>>152140314Last year a rapper made a whole song calling another rapper a pedophile, that made millions of airplay and hit platinum. And the other guy lost the lawsuit trying to shut it down.So probably not.
>>152146716It's playing on the radio in the sequel, though that was after she was arrested.
Take it to /mu/. Let's talk about Cruella some more.

>>152146681>I like this idea, but I just think Harry is such a nothingburger character that him being the ghoul couldn't go anywhere interestingCamarilla inside agent. You remember how Chapman recognized Kevin from the Chantry, to the point that he knew Kevin was a money guy (maybe not specifics, but enough to get the gist)? Imagine that, but all the time. That would be a huge boon to the hunters, provided the Yarmouth Chapter House actually capitalized on it.
>>152147010>Which O'Tolley's project currently builds homes for victims of spousal abuse?Look, I know Pentex is like cartoonishly evil and all that, but holy fuck are they really setting up places to fucking Bane abuse victims? What's next, fucking orphanages?
>>152147170You know, the more I'm exposed to WoD and Pentex, the more things I am reminded of from the 90s, likehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eoSu4Dyszk

A Final Message From Scott Adams
>>152136814>The guy thought he could beat cancer with horse medicineWait, is this true? That would be the most retarded thing he could do, regardless of all the shit he said in life.If so, it's the same crap Jobs did in his situation when he could have cured his type of cancer easily with all the money he had at his disposal.
>>152113122Okay so when does the copyright expire
>>152146256He could also create the world in a way where everyone gets the freedom to choose, but by coincidence chooses to believe, but he didn't. He's an ass
>>152127563Don't get your information from blatant anti-Mormon propaganda or from a South Park episode.
>>152147162Dum dum dum dum
>"It's very simple when you know what to look for."
>>152139564I hate how much of a genuine waste of time reading it feels half the time, the fact that more than half the characters went more than half the comic not doing anything is wild to me, ala everything with Mori
>>152144395>that more than half the characters went more than half the comic not doing anything is wild to me, ala everything with MoriExactly. I know Ultimate Black Panther gets a lot of hate on this site. But at least it USES it's characters. Storm was also gone for several months too but the moment she came back in the story she became of use again.
>>152145278It's still very flawed with rushing everything.
>>152121811Gay.
>>152139509People like the character interactions and more subdued sense it has, it's a tighter knit story. If you look at it as "Hickman's plan for Japan handed off to Peach" then of course it'll be disappointing. I'd have loved more info on that side too but after reading everything else and seeing them all raise the resistance flags in their own ways, having a series where it did its own thing was a nice reprieve. That and the art being nice were why I kept picking it up at my LCS at least. I understand your dislike of it though, it makes a lot of sense.
Sera >>>> Loona
>>152145843As seen here.>>152136338

Now that it's been 5 years since the dust settled, how was it?
>>152146930Mid is an extremely generous appraisal.
>>152147104>>152146930I think mid is fair. The show is decently comfy to watch, plot is just interesting and just funny enough to stick with it.
>>152146767Fair enough. Point taken.
>>152143139I enjoyed it for what it was, but I think it had an identity crisis, it couldnt decide what it wanted to be, and thus it was mediocre at everything it tried to do. Elfo was probably the weakest link, both in design and personality. Luci carried the show but even his plot points were very predictable. Also doesnt help that it falls into the same trap all western shows do where they dont mind making depreciating sex jokes with the male characters but are too cowardly to do a little fanservice with there female leads. You'd think after 20 years of losing to anime they would figure out what audiences want
>>152143139Never watched it; never cared. Lacks any appeal compared to Futurama and Simpsons
>Got caught up on Girl Genius>Now I have to wait a week for three whole pagesWTF do I do? I NEED to know what's going on with all the characters that were stuck in the time stop
I need her so bad
Girl Genius reads well in volume form, just at three pages a week (which I used to consider the standard for webcomics back in the 2000s), it can drag.
>>152145166The kids must be old enough now. Get the titties out again.
>>152145149Well only a few are still 'ongoing'. I think Megatokyo still is, but you'd have to be (more) insane to keep reading it. Penny Arcade is just dadslop now.
>>152145477so the patreon named notsafeforthelabs doesn't even have any Girl Genius lewds?
