We've seen edgy characters turned wholesome for marketing, but how would the reverse work? How would (You) make, say, the Fantastic Four edgy and cool?
>>153074711>but how would the reverse work?As the 90s demonstrated, it didn't.
>>153074711we already have the Maker and he's so edgy he became cringe
>>153074711On a Dimensional AdventureThey got hit by N-Zone raysAnd the Four were changed foreverIn the Most Ultimate WayNo need to fear, they're hereJust Call the FourUltimate FourDon't need no moreThat's ungrammaticalOh Reed Richards is a fascistSue's a bitch alrightJohnny is the retarded TorchThe Thing will fuck your wifeJust call the FourUltimate Four
>>153074729fpbpTake a history lesson from 40 years ago
>>153074796There's Gah Lak Tus looking hungryAnd Victor Van Damme is nearHere come the Frightful Four invadingDo you run and hide in fear?No way, no way, no wayJust call the FourUltimate FourThat's all, no more! Now that's grammatical!Oh Reed Richards is a fascistSue's a bitch alrightJohnny is the retarded TorchThe Thing will fuck your wifeCall the FourUltimate FourUltimate Four
>>153074711Don't we have a lot of edgy takes on the F4 already?>The Four from Planetary>Ultimate F4 if you take into account what happens to Reed down the line>Marvel Zombies Frightful Four>Fant4stic
>>153074798History is for nerds so nobody ever leaves anything.
>>153074711make them black trans and third thing fighting white peoplei want to see black fire
>>153074711This is a silly question, because it’s been done both ways many times with mixed results. But I’ll offer the suggestion that the F4 should all have mechas with matching powers. I know Reed built one big one at some point, so it’s not a far-fetched idea.
>>153074711Capefags are allergic to cool stuff.
>>153074711How old are you? We have seen the reverse plenty of times
>>153074711You mean everything the industry did in the 90s? We had things like>Fantastic Force the team firmly based on parental issues and asymmetrical costumes>turning New Mutants into X-Force with all the guns and ammo pouches they could fit into a panel>War Machine, the Iron Man with guns and more guns on top of the guns>Thunderstrike, the Thor with cool hair, jeans, a jacket>All avengers having leather jackets and asymmetrical costumes>Wasp was a giant bug monster, while Hank was a ripped flowing hair Gambit knockoff>All new cooler extra edgy Fantastic Four with Ghost Rider, Joe Fixit and Wolverine>Mullet Superman in a black costume>Spider-Man lite Green Lantern>Edgy more brooding Batman in a flashy asymmetrical costume and ammo pouches>Wonder Woman with spikes on her shoulders and a bow>Angry edgy Aquaman with a beard, cyber hand, and asymmetrical costume>edgy dark Hawkman with long black hair, overall Conan look and knives all over his costume>Half the silver age villains being turned into mutant monsters or demonsJust look at any comic from 1993.
>>15307580290s went way deeper than that>The entire 2099 line was made up of edgy killer versions of standard heroes with ripped up costumes>The entire Age of Apocalypse line was made up of edgy killer Mad Max versions of every mutant character>Captain Marvel was Legacy, a crazy angry asshole that fucked with people>Killer Moth was a giant bug demon>Hobgoblin was a goblin looking demon that conjured hellfire bombs>Green Lantern was a killer universe dominating villain>Dr Strange was a magical construct that was also a dark brooding edgy killer
>>153074796>Sue's a bitch alright>Johnny is the retarded TorchNothing change here
>>153074711why would you fucking do that?>>153075802yeah but most of that is cool, it's just not cool with the FF. The only edge you need is that Ben is stuck as a freaking golem and would like to be human again please, and Reed feels fucking bad about it, but his hyperintelligent brain has trouble being on the same level with anyone else, and he has a slightly unfulfilled wife to focus on first.
In the comics whe already got:Reed IlluminattiSue Secret Agent and DominatrixDepressed suicide The ThingI fuck every girl JohnnySo...
>>153076312>I fuck every girl JohnnyBut that’s just regular Johnny!
>>153074711I wouldn’t. Edge is for retarded chuds.
>>153075802>Thunderstrike, the Thor with cool hair, jeans, a jacket>All avengers having leather jackets and asymmetrical costumesHey you shut your tasteless faggot mouth, those were kino
>>153074748Him retaining his dork personality has saved him from going ful cringe imo.
>>153075077>Reed's suspiciously Bayverse Optimus-shaped mecha:
