Has a character ever benefited from explicitly sharing a universe with other heroes?
>>151332462Yea, Judge Dredd’s universe would be already over if not for Judge Anderson.
>>151332462Daredevil. Without the shared universe, he would never had had any of his Kingpin or Punisher stories.
Bump
>>151332462everyone should use Cthulhu, he is public domain! free real state fro you young niggas. Same as Sherlock Holmes, Conan, Tarzan, Doc Savage in a couple more years
>>151332462Pretty much anyone whose not the X-men
>>151333350>Conan,then how come marvel can't use the name shuma gorath anymore
>>151332553This dynamic is overused. For all the "subversion" of these times, we never get a cast that stays as pragmatic partners, it would be way more interesting than power of friendship scene #868575789
>>151332462Namor would probably do much worse off on his own. Atlantis is cool and all, but he’s at his best when far removed from it and being an ass to actual heroes.
>>151332462Biggest issue is tone. Having a pg character and a 18+ character interact will never not be awkward.
Spider-Man/Daredevil/Luke Cage needs the Avengers to maintain the distinction that he's a vigilante.The Avengers need the X-Men to demonstrate the hypocrisy of the mutant hysteria.The Fantastic Four need the other heroes to protect the world and aid in the betterment of humankind.
>>151334528>Avengers need the X-Men to demonstrate hypocrisy of mutant hysteria Nah fuck that shit, fuck X-Men writers slandering the other hero team to prop up their own and trying to villify half of Marvels heroes I enjoy.
>>151332462Yes
>>151333401*who's Usually I see this slip-up happen the other way around, so this is especially surprising.
>>151334528The X-Men need nobody, and at this point act as such constant obstructions to everyone that they serve better as a reminder of what idiots randomly bestowed with power would likely do to the world. They’re like the living embodiment of that one quote about how lucky it is that there are super-powered heroes at all in a world where the overwhelming majority would undoubtedly choose villainy first.
>>151332462No
>>151332633Pretty much.
