Disney is gonna use him as a scapegoat while continue to produce shit with a new EiC , isn't it?
>>152568252Obviously. The biggest problem is brevoort. Even Lowe is more of a problem than Yoshida-san. Shit the fact that they still have jobs is pretty indicative of the fact that the shogun is nothing more than a patsy.
>>152568281How does Brevoort have any presence left in the industry? He's openly admitted that under him Marvel has gone out of its way to piss off fans. It's a spiteful and actively antagonistic approach to writing comics, and maybe it worked for a while, but we're seeing now that it doesn't as Marvel starts to fall behind DC for the first time in ages.
>>152568327Considering how bad the X-books are doing under Brevoort I could see him getting the boot if Disney were to care enough to make any sort of changes
>>152568364He won’t get the boot, he’ll just get shuffled to another character/group.
>>152568364I do think it's kind of funny that Disney is clearly this slick, soulless corporate behemoth yet their intentions for Marvel keep running smack-dab into the odd, strange characters that populate the world of comic books. Perlmutter, Bendis, Brevoort, just the huge weirdos that have been in comics since time immemorial, gumming up the works for Disney's soulless machine one way or another.
>>152568389Check out him going to Spiderman and Lowe becoming the Next EiC
>>152568403Looking back, Disney buying Marvel under the conditions set in was a sign Iger didn't know what he was doing
>>152568281The problem is that there's no editorial leadership at all and it's obviously just marketing and penny pinching bean counters running the show. It's like we're back in 1993 but with none of the creatives.
>>152568469Let’s not act like the “creatives” back then were any better bro. Otherwise I agree.
>>152568252Brevoort has a sub stack where he'll answer fan questions has anyone asked him about how awful Marvel is doing lately? I'm not subscribing to see and Rich only reports on the Substacks when it's something positive for Marvel
>>152568593He had to shut his Substack down after he made some comments about A.I.
>>152568622Kek, what happened to pissing people off being a good thing?
>>152568634Apparently, like Icarus, he "Enraged = Engaged" got too close to the sun and fell.
>>152568252The fat fuck is to blame.
>>152568473There are still plenty of comics from the bubble and bankruptcy period worth reading. What, aside from MacKay's stuff, is Marvel putting out that's actually worth reading right now?
>>152568982On that note, how come Marvel as a company never gets more shit for crashing the comic book industry? The collapse in comic book sales after the variant cover/bubble period is basically all their fault, they were pushing that shit way more than DC, but it never gets brought up as a black mark for them.
>>152568389were?he been in every editor position besides EiC at this point for Marvel, and he's not considered competent enough to get promoted to that postion
>>152569005I mean a lot of complaints about the comic industry are really Marvel specific complaints. The only big one I can think of on DC is "too many reboots". I don't know how they always get the pass either
>>152568252any more pics of this peak physique?
>>152569005>On that note, how come Marvel as a company never gets more shit for crashing the comic book industry?Because they didn't, every company did. Marvel actually has typically gotten a lot of blame because a lot of the non-Wizard journos (TCJ and such) disliked Marvel. Image, Malibu, DC, retarded store owners and collectors looking for get rich quick schemes, they all deserve blame. Marvel's big mistake was the Heroes World debacle.
>>152569005Marvel did crash the industry in the 90s but tbf they pulled the industry up out of the gutter in the 2000s with Ultimate, JMS on Spidey, Whedon on X-Men, and other names that normies would recognize writing their books. This time though if it weren’t for Kirkman and Absolute they’d definitely have crashed the industry with their lackluster use of their main characters and over reliance on relaunches and alternate covers.
>>152569235>Marvel's big mistake was the Heroes World debacle.Which caused the industry crash. You can point fingers but in the end the bottom line is Marvel deciding to flip up the distribution table is what caused the crash
>>152569262Blind bags seem to be the new gimmick, making money
>>152568327>>152568364Brevoort has a LOT of insulation because he knows more about logistics and production than anyone else left in editorial now. He also knows more about history and continuity than any other editor, so he's looked upon as the token 'house nerd' but he IS a cunt.
>>152569235It was a Wallstreet scam you idiot. It was like how vintage games, or Pokémon cards were overpriced, or OF girls make millions on a stream. Its fucking money laundering. The comic bubble was artificial and used to move a lot of cash.
>>152569297I thought there was something with the RDJ Ultimate Endgame blind bag that killed the blind bag speculator market?
>>152569317it's still limping along going the announcements at ComicPro today and yesterday
>>152569280The crash was already happening. Heroes World was 1995 and sales were already starting to crater in 1994. It's the equivalent to a house that's already on fire blowing up. There was no saving the house, the explosion just made its destruction faster.
>>152569317So far it didn't seem to have any effect yet. The only thing that's happened is that the upcoming blind bags will have variants that are exclusive to the bag to avoid someone trying to take the blank cover variant and copy the RDJ sketch/autograph and pass it off as a real one
>>152568403I think it might be that people with talen are put in other divisions. The comic division is for the losers and pussies. I would think there is some contractual obligation to keep the comic division going because they are a waste of money right now.
>>152568982>aside from MacKay's stuffThis tells me all I need to know about your dogshit standards.
>>152568252>m-masaka, it's rike anaza hiroshima
>>152568281Um....sweaty....that's YOSHIDA-HEIKA, REIGNING ENVOY OF THE SUPREME BEINGS, AND ALL POWERFUL LEADER OF THE YAMATO PEOPLE YOU FILTHY FUCKING GAIJIN.>>152569301Does Brevoort actually know logistics or production that matters in current day? Genuinely curious. Also I unironically want some finance exec to take a stab at just doing retarded shit with Marvel but slowly getting a hang of it creatively and gaining the same level of knowledge that these fucks have by just reading the books instead of just looking at Wikia.
>>152569948Nobody will read Jeremy Adams's slop, faggot.
>>152568252it's possible
>>152568327he's also known to be a massive cunt to former marvel 'talent'. when Robert Kirkman left for Image he sent Kirkman a couple of passive agressive 'don't think we'll let you come back when you fail' emails.
>>152569930I think you’re right, Disney doesn’t seem to be giving Marvel the budget to actually hire big name talents that could pull them up from the gutter they’re in.
>>152571238>he sent Kirkman a couple of passive agressive 'don't think we'll let you come back when you fail' emails.I really hope this is true considering Kirkman’s Skybound is currently shellacking everything Marvel is putting out
>>152570459Funny how you immediately assume I like other slop when I simply refuse to allow you to elevate marvel’s version Jeremy Adams above the designation. His fucking moon knight and avengers are awful.
