>But some folk spotted another series absent from the [Marvel Legacy] lineup. Runaways. Announced in hype over at Entertainment Weekly as a new ongoing series by Rainbow Rowell and Kris Anka for September [13] and solicited as such, it didn’t turn up in Marvel Legacy’s list.
>Rowell told (((Vox))) [http://archive.fo/crAlr], “Starting in September, I’ll be the ongoing writer for Runaways. And if people buy it, I will continue to write it. And it’s the sort of thing I can do while I write books, so I’ve already written the first six issues.”
>After all, it had had 64 issues previously published, the new Runaways #1 could have been Runaways #65. But in the Marvel Legacy announcement, it wasn’t even mentioned, let alone given a Legacy homage cover and a storyline title. Had it been cancelled already after just one issue?
>Maybe not. Because, despite the announcement, maybe it’s not actually an ongoing series. And so not appearing in the Marvel Legacy ongoing list. After all, Marvel’s David Gabriel was quoted as saying that Marvel doesn’t like to announce that comics are limited series as such because it’s a death knell for the comic. [True sauce for that quote: https://icv2.com/articles/news/view/37153/marvel-retailer-summit-day-1]
>Oh and the Amazon listing for the collected issues? Those six issues that Rowell has already written for next year in Runaways… no Vol 1 or similar listed in its title, which an ongoing series would get. [Screencap related. Archive: http://archive.fo/6bChh]
>Maybe it always was a six issue limited series but Marvel Comics just didn’t want to say? Or is this just the left hand not knowing what the claws the right hand is popping?

Eventually fans are going to catch on to stealth minis, right? They can't keep pulling a fake out on everyone, can they?

Yeah that's a good sign. You can tell she put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this funnybook on the side while she worked on her actual job.

It's probably one of those things when they announce something but bounce it back when they'll have a bunch of new #1s to launch en masse.
So if it's not september, it'll be november or december even.
Certainly there has to be more they can eat than just Energon.

jesus fucking christ mate.
Let's start of by answering some possible questions for those who don't know .
>What's a poochie ?
The character poochie was a gag character introduced in a Simpsons episode. He was created to refresh and update the itchy and scratchy format with hilariously disastorous results . In the context of this thread however , a "poochie" is a character that is introduced into a show that's going on longer then it should have in a desperate attempt at reviving a very well beaten horse . A poochie tends to be loud, constantly in the centre of attention (often pushing main and much more adored supporting cast out) and will be made out to be almost completely faultless.
This thread is made to discuss the many many poochies cropping up in cartoons new and old. What are some noteworthy poochies ? What poochies ended up actually improving the show ? Discuss

Is Principal PC a "poochie"? the thing is that he's the anti-thesis of a cool character. He's a stuck up, communistic deluded sociopathic piece of shit obsessed with his "hate speech" garbage.
He's basically Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter 5.
Trey and Matt kept him for some retarded reason like he isn't in the wrong, he isn't a villain, he isn't insane and he isn't an idiot. Like sjws aren't as bad as muslims and animal protectors.
FOP had 3 Poochies
>>93593615
PC principal feels like a really really funny bit that overstayed his welcome. Like he wasn't intended to be a poochie but ended up as one possibly due to popular demand. The thing about poochies is they (at best) split the fan opinion of them 50/50 , while pcp feels universally liked .

What's the Battlefield Earth of comics and cartoons?
Beast Machines
Cry for Justice or Countdown
Trouble and/or Nemesis.
Problem: I picked up this pack of Dr. Strange pins at a con. If I open the package it reduces the collector value on fleaBay. But I can't see the pins without opening the package. What do? Help me, /co/, you're my only hope.
>collector value of some branded tchotchkes
>>93592952
Just google up how they look online.
>>93592952
buy an opened pack from some retard on ebay for all your looky-loo needs, keep your precious objets d'art in mint unopened condition.
or just not be an autist. whichever works.
So I was talking the other day with a few anons and we remarked on how there hasn't been much world building in modern comics. The recent Aquaman issue had a fair bit, which is why we remarked on it. But in the past its all been pretty much made up on the fly. Sure a few districts with a bit of history are known, especially in Gotham. But they haven't really been developed much in recent years. This is the only map I've found and I don't think comics have been consistent with it ever. I'd love to see some proper worldbuilding, and I think it would benefit the stories if they had a more consistent framework. Most are one arc wonders.
Why have writers/editorial avoided such worldbuilding?
>>93592783
this can't happen in the big two in the modern age because writers no longer really get a chance to stick with something for long enough and there's an almost constant threat of replacement or cancellation.
As a consequence they're forced to stick with storylines that are neatly tied up in a few issues at most. In and of itself this doesn't technically kill world building, one can still add bits and pieces to the world as time goes on in such circumstances obviously however what it does do is kill the motivation. Why bother building up the world of Superman when the writer after you is going to ignore it and do a storyline of their own devising and probably forget everything you wrote as well?
Then because nobody is world building - nobody feels the need to take on past world building either. So it's a feedback loop of depressed motivation in this regard. The way out is to
1. create a comic heavily focused on continuity or
2. have a constant writer for a period of real life years and tell them that they should feel free to plot something out over 50-60 issues.
The problem with 2. is that sometimes you do this and get a complete ass clown obsessed with something other than writing a half decent story and you've accidentally just made them really powerful so can't stop the monster you've created.

Ewing has been doing some worldbuilding of Marvel Cosmic, using the work of previous writers as a foundation.

Why were they such complete and utter cunts?
Who the fuck is this??
>>93592182
The British team rocket/pilaf gang. A bunch of incompetent gag villains. Only difference is that instead of thievery, they took part in much heinous acts like whaling, taking part in the ivory trade, kidnapping girls and selling them into prostitution, committing genocide against indigenous people of South America, funding the IRA, carjacking and hit and running the elderly, kidnapping Ronald Reagan and trying to start a nuclear war between Russia and the US, and committing benefit fraud.
All of this was in a children's show and was played for laughs.
Also the skeleton was a massive faggot
>>93592282
Dammit, I forget which show they were from, was it Superted or Bananaman?

I haven't watched the show in a long time, and soon I will be introducing the show to a friend. A VERY picky friend. Seriously we gotta walk on eggshells here.
Only the best episodes.
Anyone can just spew episode titles, so give a short summary/explain yourself.
I shall be compiling a master watchlist.
>Heart of Ice
Seriously by this point everyone knows about the incredible reception it got, just tell your friend it got the show an Emmy and put Freeze on the map
>Almost Got Im
Another extremely popular and well-received episode. No need to elaborate on that.
>Feat of Clay two-parter
Solid mystery involving a great version of Clayface. Fantastic animation, great storyline, great ending, overall quality.
>Two-Face two-parter
Probably the episode I'd use, alongside Heart of Ice, to sell someone on TAS from a dramatic standpoint. It's a phenomenal way to introduce Two-Face into the series
>Joker's Favor
Most Joker episodes are pretty great but this one is my personal favorite. It's a great concept with one of the best pay-offs in the show's history.
>Birds Of A Feather
Easily the best episode Penguin's ever been in (apart from Almost Got Im) and the only episode in the show that was about Penguin, starring Penguin and telling a story that could only be told with Penguin.
There's more but these are the ones I can remember and these are usually the ones people mention whenever TAS is discussed.
The Mad Hatter and Riddler episodes are pretty great too.
