Straight from the Shogun>The first wave will feature five titles, including "Spider-Man" and "Spider-Gwen." "Spider-Man" will be illustrated by tokitokoro, who previously worked on "Jeff The Land Shark" for Marvel Comics. It depicts the adventures of Haruto Hachidori, a high school boy from Shibuya who suddenly gains spider-like abilities. "Spider-Gwen" will be illustrated by Ryusei Yamada, who illustrated Captain Marvel for "MARVEL SWIMSUIT SPECIAL." It follows Gwen Stacy, an ordinary high school student who plays drums in a band, as she gains superhuman powers and protects the city as Spider-Woman. Furthermore, CB Cebulski, former editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics, has announced that he will be based in Tokyo and working on the Asian expansion of Marvel Comics.https://natalie.mu/comic/gallery/news/691603/2979914
>>155666318Why is Peter replaced with some nobody but Gwen gets to keep her book?
>Haruto Hachidori is a high school student living in Shibuya. One day, he suddenly gains an unknown "spider-like ability." As Spider-Man, Haruto swings and runs through the streets of Shibuya with ease. However, as he moves about, the "shadow" lurking in this city begins to stir...
>Spider-Gwen. An ordinary high school student. Gwen Stacy is the drummer for the band "Mary Janes." One day, she is bitten by a radioactive spider in a laboratory and gains superhuman strength. She chooses to protect the city as "Spider-Woman," but harsh choices and conflicts await her.Imagine if this book is when she can finally get her own original rogues gallery
>Daredevil and Punisher also make appearances.
>>155666330Spider-Man is the self insert and Japan doesn't want to self insert as a white guy. I'm pretty sure all the Spider-Manga has a Japanese person being Spider-Man and not Peter.
I have Gwen Stacy fatigue
>>155666330One has a defined, fleshed out character. The other doesn't. Thus, the creators like Akira, think that because he is in le land of the sunrise kingdom, that means everything must be new and arise from the new setting. However, in this instance, I am fine with Peter not being the protag. However, I think perhaps some Peter-like qualites can be given to a new protag as when you have a spider-character who comes with a secret identity and a supporting cast then you must have flaws that impact these. And when it is a male, then you will have some variant of hot-headedness or rash judgement as men are hardwired to be that most of the time. I say that as a man, because I think you have to be willing to move fast onto opportunities/"prey" and attack swiftly the problem of how to get this opportunity/prey. I dunno that's vague and broad but when you boil down a character you have to see the root of behavior and Peter is both broad and specific in character. That's what makes him interesting.Let's hope at least one of these series is good. But yeah the OP costume looks....bad.
>>155666385>Make new MJ Spider-Woman OC/costume design challenge: IMPOSSIBLE
>>155666399>But yeah the OP costume looks....bad.I specifically went with that pic for the OP because I knew it'd infuriate suit autists lol
>>155666370I wonder if it's more of a specific Marvel licensing rule, since whenever they do a Batman manga, Bruce is still Batman.
These designs are horrible, who is this even for? Have they given up on trying to sell comic books to zoomers since they would rather just read Jujutsu Kaisen or some shit instead? These characters are a lot closer to the ones in My Adventures With Superman than anything currently being published in Shonen Jump, which I assume is the audience they want. That Punisher design is especially fucking awful, completely boring and not intimidating in the slightest.
>>155666472This isn't for the Western audience
>>155666472>That Punisher design is especially fucking awful, completely boring and not intimidating in the slightest.Would've been cooler if they just drew Golgo 13 and stuck him in a Punisher costume.
>Everyone but Gwen has redesigns
>>155666369>Frank is still white>He studied the bladeBrilliant
>>155666318>It depicts the adventures of Haruto Hachidori, a high school boy from Shibuya who suddenly gains spider-like abilities.Japanese Spider-man should had been Takuya Yamashiro.>>155666344Spider-Gwen in a non-Miles Morales book? Did Miles Morales just lose?
>>155666318>"Spider-Gwen" will be illustrated by Ryusei Yamada, who illustrated Captain Marvel for "MARVEL SWIMSUIT SPECIAL."Carol Danvers mentioned!
>>155666318>>155666333Dude put in effort trying to make a worst suit than Mile's Adidas and Hot Pink Femboy suits. Anyway this whole thing reeks of desperation
>>155666464It really seems like just a Peter thing. Other Marvel characters are themselves like Deadpool's manga.
>>155666887Welp. At least Yoshida and Disney are being taken for a ride I guess.
>>155666344Once again, the Japanese fail the world's ass men. I don't mean a big ass, but even a small but shapely one should be there. Maybe it's just the coloring used, but still.
>>155666330Because Marvel is run by Gwenfags who see Gwen Stacy as their Jesus.
>>155666318Is that costume a Haruto Hachidori original?
>>155666472I love how on one hand /co/ consistently cries that you have make comics like manga and every time they do that /co/ starts crying NOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT
>>155666369>>155666359If I had a nickel every time a new Spider-Man project was announced where everyone else has better designs than him
>no Hulk or Thor mangaFuck you too Yoshida.
>>155666370Japan has never once in the last 80 years not wanted to self-insert as a white guy. look at how they draw.
>>155667933>no kaiju Hulk born from the nukesMarvel is too coward
>>155667738They are probably attached to the weekly release format, higher level of authorship, and being self-contained stories. The answer is probably read webcomics.
>>155668059Except not all manga are weekly releases, and if all you want is author lead self-contained stories then what is stopping you from reading comics not published by DC and Marvel?
>>155668107They have small reference pools.
>>155666318Don't care about the manga, just here to say this suit is ass.
>>155666370You say that, but then >>155666333 has the new guy just be a white guy. I think that licensing thing is more likely.
>>155666369>shinsengumi style PunisherAlright fuck it, I'm in. I hope that since he's showing up on the previews he'll play a decent sized roll in things.
>>155667937What are you talking about? They love their generic black hair Japanese males. Especially if they're a 15 year old high schooler that would love to have a girlfriend but still recoils in fear at the sight of a girl's skin.
>>155666622How much did Japanese Spider-Man do in this? I've seen this one page around but was never sure where it was from and how much he did.
>>155668451>new guy just be a white guy.He's AsianHe has a Japanese name
>>155668485Leopardon lost an arm and got trashed after being a distraction People were pissed He got repaired for a more recent crossover but Spider-Man himself got a redesign
>>155668499>but Spider-Man himself got a redesignNo fucking way!
>>155666318>The first wave will feature five titles, including "Spider-Man" and "Spider-Gwen.so what are the other three titles
>>155666377>>155666344Pixiv artists will still cover her in penis butter
>>155666318Arigatou Akira Yoshida-sama
>>155666318>Spider-Gwen
How does Kadokawa operate? How soon can we expect them to give it the ax? I could see this endeavor fail pretty fast and Disney get humiliated by Yoshida-san's incompetence.
>>155668499>after being a distractionThat's lame. I guess it was about the best one could hope for, but still lame.
>>155670516That's what you can expect from the walking ugly bastard, Slott. The nigga waddles around and also had cosmic and MvC Spider-Man job uncermoniously. The dude doesn't give one fuck about Spider-Man. He goes on wikia to look up facts to appear as though he gives a fuck. Look at him compared to his Dr. Who fetish/kink. The piece of lard is a grade-A fraud.
>>155666377No ass whatsoever. You can tell it’s for the Eastern audience.
>>155670649Nope. To make up for it the chest should be larger. This is handicapped by Disney.
>>155666370>Spider-Man is the self insert and Japan doesn't want to self insert as a white guyDidn't stop BND from making bank there.
>>155666333He better fucking not be one of those gee wiz guys, I swear to God...
>>155666318>>155666333These are really busy designs. Do we know who's writing all this?
