>>152952379I've tried reading the Drake and Morrison runs and didn't enjoy much of either one.For the Drake run, I liked how clean the art was, but the stories were generic Silver Age randomness, which gets old fast.For the Morrison run, I really hated the art. It was not up to par for the level of craziness coming from the writing., especially with those covers and guest artists. The writing was also frustrating, because there was a lot of good ideas that were not really explored and it was altogether too formulaic in the end. The same apocalyptic scenario caused by entities with objects for heads that spoke funny kept happening.

>>152952379The TV show was surprisingly good. Not flawless, it drags on the later seasons, but overall pretty fun for what it was.

>>152951516Jobs that sound easy but give you housing instead of livable money kind of suck in real life because it makes the boss feel like they own you 24/7 when it’s convenient regardless of what was in the contract (and they know you have no way out if you’re desperate enough to take that deal in the first place). The SF guys have a pretty sweet deal though.

Teen humor comics were a big deal after WWII, but nowadays Archie is all anyone knows because it was the only series to last past the 70s. Do you like old teen humor comics? Which ones are your favorites?

I think there should be more animated thriller series. ‘Miraculous’ could be a good candidate.

>>152947220>Hazbin proved Vivzie can write complex female characters if she puts her mind to it, even if a lot of the female characters are lacking.I don't see it. If Charlie is Vivzie's alter ego, then Velvette is Vivzie's shadow self: the bombastic womanchild self-objectifying for power over the internet. Somehow, I don't think she's going to feel comfortable exploring the heart and mind of a girl with body issues so intense her eternal punishment is literally to be a sexless marionette forever.
>>152954532Sad, but I guess that will be what the inevitable crossover arc will focus on.
If Adam does come back as a sinner and Lute has to grapple with her feelings despite years of exorcist training and conditioning then she's quite literally taking over the plotline Vaggie should have had with Charlie and the latter will NEVER be explored
>>152952977The weighted plush is so dumb I love it. Why is he making that face? Very kissable.I have the youtooz one ordered since December, but apparently he is so in demand, that it'll take a while. Millions of little Voxes, I hope they go to loving homes. The wait is excruciating though!
Compared to some of the stuff that aired on CN back then and the state of CN now, his show was alright. It was stupid, but harmless.

Spamming this shit on every board you think you can get away with it isn't going to make people pay attention. It's just going to make them hate you for being an annoying cunt.

Pigeon feels like a Helluva Boss character yet he manages to actually be funny. It can't just be Norm's delivery, can it?
>>152935138It's half delivery and half that he's the only character like him in the show. The problem with hellaverse stuff is that when everyone is a crass asshole, no one is.

How would a grant morrison run of X-ray cat look like? Would it even be about? I dont even know what else can be done with the character anymore after bendis got a hold of him last year...
It doesn't make any sense to me. It is like they have been sticking their heads into the sand when it comes to this shit. They are businesses right? Why not replicate what works when it comes to comics?>They aren't focused on comics anymoreBut they still cancel series if they are doing well, so obviously they want their comics to make money. Just fucking learn from manga. If the Western tradition left you a shadow of your former self in your own country, then abandon it. It isn't going to help you. Go black and white, make original IPs, learn from manga storytelling and paneling, release at least 30 pages a month, and let stories have a beginning and end. That's it, you don't need to ape their art styles.
>>152937303The problem is really in the backlog collections. Right now unless you're willing to just jump into a story in media res and figure it out along the way you have to look around at a bunch of different collections in different formats, some in color and some not with missing issues and have to double check to see if they overlap or have missing bits or not. You can't just hop on an online shop or go to a store and see Spider-Man/Hulk/Iron Man volume 1 that starts with their first issue and see volume 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, all the way up to 300 or whatever where it says: "this is all caught up now and we'll release another one once another 10-30 issues accumulate to justify a volume release. Otherwise you can go to the individual issue section and buy issue # whatever which is the next issue after this one ends and then start following it monthly."That's what it's impossible to do. You can get most of them, but you can't get all of them up to Spider-Versity or whatever is happening now and you certainly can't get them in a standardized collection that's all the same size, format, and numbering like you can with manga. That's one of if not the biggest hurdle that American comics face. Even if they plan to new readers are going to see they haven't caught up yet and just wait because they don't want to be left hanging waiting for a new backlog release. Compare that to something like One Piece which has all 1,168 issues collected into about 113 volumes that are all available physically in the store or able to be ordered online and by the time you catch up to the collected volumes it's very easy to just read the few you're missing and then start following the new weekly releases in Jump.If people are willing to start that nonsense from issue 1 and read it all the way up to current, even paying to do so and physically storing all of those books in their home they'll certainly do it with things like Spider-Man, Batman, and etc. The problem is they just can't.

Pixar has been shifting towards this cutesy, blobby, watercolor-inspired art style for the last five years now as their "new identity" and I have no idea why. It's losing a fuckton of charm when translated into 2D, it's obviously not a matter of being budget friendly because their movies still cost way too much for what they are, and general audiences don't seem to like it very much.So why are they doing it? Is this just a matter of, "We've gone this far we have to keep going"?
>>152951088They've been ghiblified, obviously
It is an extremely difficult task to blend influences from Miyazaki and Takahata with other styles and cultures in a way that works well.That's the same in Japan, but Jap artists have been trying to distance themselves from it because Ghibli is like the beatles for them and they know they'd be despised when they make a half-assed ghibli-inspired work.

>>152952512>>152953061>>152953265>GhibliThat's the impression I get, but it doesn't feel genuine. Doesn't feel much like a homage to me, feels more like an attempt to copy someone else's homework without their consent, and it ends up looking like a half-assed, half-baked attempt.Hell, Miyazaki would probably be pissed at the notion of Disney trying to copy his style.

>>152954984No. The space UN has always seen the viltrumites as enemies for good reason. And the viltrumites basically had another civil war at the end and Mark became their leader. He's the one who made it his life's mission to use the viltrumites as a force for good instead of conquest and most viltrumites are loyal to him because he beat Freddie Mercury and also they were all tired of war and addicted to earth pussy.The problem is the space UN still doesn't trust the viltrumites regardless or whether Invincible is charge or not. Especially after they gained hundreds of new half breed viltrumites courtsey of Thragg personally fucking his way through the bug people. If Invincible were ever to die or turn on them the new viltrum empire would be a bigger threat than ever before. And Mark did make it clear to Allen that while he'd still help him he would always put his family and his people first. That small seed of uncertainty snowballed and caused Allen to eventually turn on Mark. Tech jacket was presumably also there. Somewhere.
>>152955493Much like the real UN, Space UN by the end had turned into an extractive and coercive enterprise where rich planets sucked the wealth out of the poor third world shitholes, and got mad at the Viltrum Mary Sue empire for eliminating security problems and causing the shitholes to leave the UN's questionable protection. They deserved to be raped by Mark
>>152955668No they didn't, Kirkman deserved to be raped for how stupid his writing got in the end
>>152955493> If Invincible were ever to die or turn on them the new viltrum empire would be a bigger threat than ever before. And Mark did make it clear to Allen that while he'd still help him he would always put his family and his people first. That small seed of uncertainty snowballed and caused Allen to eventually turn on Mark. This. And frankly, they are completely justified to be worried about that. The viltrumites are massively dangerous, have been expansionist space genociders before, and could easily be so again. All you need is for the younger generation to idolize their 'golden age past' and declare their desire to 'make Viltrumites great again' and you've have at least a Viltrumite civil war, and if the expansionists win that fight much worse to come.At the bare minimum, the Coalition of Planets needs to always have an anti-viltrumite weapons program that can realistically deal with them if the need arises. Like the scourge virus. It would be irresponsible for them not to have that.
