If you name drop Miles Morales in a class room, everyone knows that you're talking about Spider-Man.You name-drop Barry Allen? You'd be lucky to find 1 kid who recognizes the name.
>>144650508Wasn't the CW show decently popular?
>>144650515No. It was cancelled.
>>144650508Before this turns to shit I'll say this. Even as a kid back in like 2015, I thought he had such a cool origin for a legacy character. No one is ever going to top spinning "with great powers come great responsibility" into his origin moment.
>>144650520It lasted 9 seasons and got a finale.
>>144650508>If you name drop Miles Morales in a class room, everyone knows that you're talking about Miles MoralesFTFY>>144650519I want them to actually try to sell Miles all on his own, with no Peter/other Spiders involved.
>>144650508>If you name drop Miles Morales in a class room, everyone knows that you're talking about Spider-Man.>You name-drop Barry Allen? You'd be lucky to find 1 kid who recognizes the name.My 5 year old loves the spider-characters, and Miles is his favorite. Disney has done work getting kids in on the ground floor. DC has nothing for them. I love Young Justice as much as the next person and Superman IS my favorite comic book character, but DC has nothing with their trinity to get kids in at the ground floor.

>>144650508Go back to Twitter.
>>144650508I would not trust the average /co/ user i a school
Can someone make list of big name DC/Marvel characters that have since adopted the name who have replace em as Legacy holders of said name?
Miles's success has led to far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far TOO MANY concurrent codename copiers. Argh.
>>144650515Not only that but didnt we get a Flash movie at some point
>>144650508>kept putting him in the same stuff as Peter so he can leech off the success>call it a legacyWow so impressive
>>144650508Triggering truth.
>>144650557What's the age demo for CW shows? I don't know any kids who would be caught dead watching that shit. It's all millennials, gen x, and boomers, and they're always the sort who have no taste and generally gave up on life.
>>144650520>>144651766yeah you shift those goalposts, nigger! keep on movin’ ‘em and you’ll never lose the argument. fuck you, faggot. fucking freak. tiny dick ass nigga. get fucked by black guys.
>>144651791Are you, like, a crazy person?OP is clearly right, Miles is the most popular legacy character of the modern era by a long shot.But trying to compare Miles with Spidey and Friends, the Sony games, the Spider-Verse movies, etc. to Barry and his CW show, and say that a classroom poll is a good measure of popularity is stupid, because of the demographic differences I mentioned.
Spider-Gwen won too!
What went right?
>legacy character for someone who's still alive in their timeIt's so silly to me.
>>144650508The only DC secret identities that normies know are Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne. I know a feller whose dad's first name is Barry and whose middle name is Allan and he used to be a drug dealer in a biker gang. I asked him "Your dad is Barry Allan? Did he sell speed?" and fucking NOBODY got the reference.
>>144650508But if you namedrop Spider-Man in a classroom, everyone will think you're talking about Peter Parker. That's not winning anything, that's getting carried by another popular character
>>144650508Ask kids who Spider-Man is and they'll say Peter Parker. Ask kids who Blue Beetle is and they'll say "who?" or Jamie Reyes
Ask people who Captain Marvel is and they are gonna think you are talking about Brie Larson, not the OG guy that died from cancer
What about Gwen Stacy?Ask who she is, and they’d tell you she’s the blonde spider person, not the the blonde in a skirt who died being thrown off a bridge.
>>144653293Billy Batson died of cancer?
Turns out when you drop a billion dollars on promoting and trying to force fetish Poochie into being mainstream and don't relent despite numerous failures over a decade+, incredible things can happenShame they don't do that for any actually good characters
>>144654481Nah more people saw the TASM movies than the Spider-Verse movies
>>144650546With great powers comes great theft of a dead man's identity and life
>>144652927Multiversal refugees should go to their earths.KEEP 616 TO 616 INHABITANTS
>>144650508>Barry Allen
>>144650698>but DC has nothing with their trinity to get kids in at the ground floor.Justice League Action was a great attempt, so of course they just cancelled it after only one season.
>>144654645AYO WTF MAN? Might as well put a little star of David next to his name like the Nazis did.
