Why doesn't this get storytimed? Does it have zero following on /co/?
>>
>>156256080
It's unpleasant and rather dull despite the amoral superheroes and the end of the first major arc concluded with a time reset so the leads can try to do a Miracleman but much slower. Are there good ideas? A few. But it's largely a plodding take on the X-Men if they were unleashed but also they can't do too much because they're in a Cold War but now they're buddies who will now shepherd the sheeple because meta human essentialism.

Gillen is a very shitty writer.
>>
>>156256080
Judging the book by its cover, I would say because it's typical modern drivel, all style and no substance, and more concerned with ticking all the right boxes than making a good story.
>>
>>156256080
>Why doesn't this get storytimed
Gillen is offensively mediocre as a writer
>>
>>156256367
>>156256448
Got it.
Thanks for your input.
>>156256422
>>156256480
Which is it?

>>156256080
Storytimes aren't as common as they used to be.
There was a time we could count on everything being posted.
>>
this place is just contrarian retards who dont read good books

thus my suprise when james roberts run on transformers got a story time recently
>>
Storytimers are a dying breed
I should I know, I'm one of them and personally that's not the kind of thing I'm interested in storytiming period
>zero following on /co/
Because to put it bluntly, a lot of people don't bother using /co/ as a destination for comic discussion anymore
Especially new blood who just use Discord or LOCG
When was the last time a non-pre established, multi-media IP comic garnered a solid following here?

>>156257264
It's a guy doing every major Transformers run
He did Marvel and Dreamwave as well
>>
It's frankly tiresome to deal with the captcha and then have to put up with the prevailing idea here that any bump is a good bump because there's an entire generation that don't know how to socialize properly

Don't need the 30 minutes I spent posting Power Fantasy turned into another Spider-Man or X-Men general thanks
>>
>>156257585
To be fair, it's warranted as Power Fantasy was Gillen's plan for Immortal X-Men's second year retooled as a stand alone serial numbers filed off comic
>>
>>156256906
I was trying to be diplomatic, "shitty" is more accurate.
>>
>>156257585
>It's frankly tiresome to deal with the captcha
No it fucking isn't
If you're getting more than a single "pick odd one out" you've fucked up to get there and in case you haven't noticed, the triangle with the half-circle bite is ALWAYS the odd one, no exception
>>
>>156258919
Son, if you have to explain your strats you've already defeated the premise that it's not a hassle
>>
The color palette is disruptive.

>>156256080

I didn't really enjoy it. The characters are flat and unlikeable while all the events in the book feel like asspulls with no real buildup. Maybe it's better than my impressions of it but I can't see it.
>>
>>156258895
Damn.

>main attraction is to have the Supers have different POVs and world-ending powers, so a tip to one ideology or the other can bring about enormous consequences
>they're all just the same California Liberal POC whose main concern is how to be the most Ethnical Leftist
What is the point? I don't mind the gay black Utilitarian or anything like that, but there's no excitement and mystery if they're all the same character deep down. Why isn't there a Survival of The Fittest guy? Someone who LARPs about the Aristocracy? A literal Nazi or Commie or whatever? They don't even fill in the basic cliches, it's just a bunch of Heckin Queer POCs being heckin leftist and queer.

The art is usually good though.
>>
its on hiatus no?
I storytimed it usually
is it back?
>>
>>156256080
>Why doesn't this get storytimed?
Too expensive. And those who've dished out the funds for it refuse to share their wealth with the rest of us peasants.

Cant you say that to any website or service? It feels like the last time that was Invincible.

Why didn't he mindcripple the kaiju girl?
>>
>>156256080
>Why doesn't this get storytimed?
Indie comics don't get that much traction vs Big 2 on NCBD
>>
>>156256080
each issue has been storytimed here, check the archives
>>
>>156256080
I've seen it storytimed a few times but not all of the time. There's a lot of Marvel and DC comics that don't get storytimed all the time.
>>
>>156256080
It got a few storytimes and the few anons who were reading it seemed to like it. Ignore anyone in here telling you it's bad that's just /co/ being miserable.
>>
>>156261319
Because he had no clue if mindcrippling the kaiju girl would unleash the kaiju especially if it is a genuinely other being within her
>>
>>156261507
If her death triggers the thing, they're doomed anyway.
>>
>>156259919
The problem with these kinds of "what if superpowers but real world issues" series is that if you've read one you've more or less read them all.
>>
>>156261788
share some of these stories that aren't from Big Two
>>
where the fuck is rook exodus
>>
Sorry anon /co/ is just a board for cartoon pedophiles now.
>>
>>156262363
Noone cares?
>>

No

Invincible came out in 2003 you stupid fucking casual
>>
>>156256080
I'm still waiting on the new timeline arc
>>
>>156258798
>demon girl is Magik
>Etienne is either Charles Xavier or Jean
>Heavy is probably Magneto
Who do the other Super Powers map to?
Is Jackie Magus supposed to be Forge?
>>
>>156260015
I think the new arc doesn't start until next year

oof
>>
>>156261273
As in recent comics?
Beneath the Trees here and places like LOCG and Xitter
SIKTC also has a following albeit not really here
>>
>>156261778
Yes but in theory they could die 5 decades from now rather than today when they try killing her or putting her in stasis or blockading the kaiju
>>
>>156262626
Eliza is Magik and maybe Wanda.
Etienne is Professor X.
Heavy is Magneto.
Jackie is Doom and Constantine (form india)
Masumi is anime Hulk
Valentina is Superman, Wonder Woman plus America Chavez
>>
Gillen's stuff always comes off as an aging hipster who's trying too hard to he "hip" and "with it" but no one has the heart to tell him that kids don't use that slang anymore.
>>
>>156256080
Power Fantasy or Terminal?
Which is the better not-X-Men book now?
>>
>>156262976
qrd on Terminal?
>>
>>156263201
Kirkman's take on 90's X-Men
>>
>>156262363
That's still going?
