ITT: Underrated shows
most netflix exclusives seemed doomed to obscurity by way of the format.
>>92187571
It does seem like they're free to air on TV after they end though, so maybe that'll help.
>>92185306
Dunno of they're going to have another 26 episodes or not. Since they kept up that "of the season" gag. I'm thinking they may do a format change.
So some anons were curious about what goes on at local comicbook shops and what sells and what doesn't so I wanted to start a thread where we can share stories and to discuss books that sell well and the ones that don't. (and to vent about people not picking up their pulls because come on people.)
The current Button storyline sells well at my shop which is pretty surprising because we've been pushing Secret Empire pretty hard on customers. We actually have to order more issues of Batman #21 because we sold out our stock. Super Sons is another book that sells well at the store with issue one selling out before 3 o'clock the Wednesday it came out.

My local shop sucks
Every time I go in, the dudes have no interest in talking, despite me being a regular. I get my pulls, each and every time they ring me out silently and stare at my titles like they're judging me. It got old after a while, I feel like I'm not even welcome there despite my weekly business. And when people they want to talk to come in, they talk and talk and forget people are waiting to pay for their shit.
Idk man, might switch back to mail subscriptions. Technically I save money but usuallu the comics come in bent or crushed and shit, been burned too many times for that. Or maybe I just wait for trades to come out, but I really don't want to wait that long.
>blog over
Also Secret Empire....like I said in this thread >>92170032 isn't flying off the shelves like I thought it would, despite us pushing it hard.
We have free swag for anyone who gets it but honestly Civil War II did better despite the reception it has. Also some of the customers aren't exactly.....thrilled about what's happening to Cap. On FCBD I spoke to someone who was actually pretty upset about it as she wanted to get back into comics after not reading them for a decade but the whole thing is leaving a bad taste in her mouth.
What about you guys? What's the reception like for Secret Empire at your local store?
>>92185412
Oh man I'm really sorry to hear that.
I hate hearing stories like this because LCSs should be a fun place to go to and just shoot the shit about comics. Do you have other shops in your area where you can go to?
>angry that captain america is part of hydra, a nazi organization.
>protest by burning books.
this has to be the most funniest marvel rage i've saw in a long time. personally lovin secret empire 8)
>>92185100
You do realize there is a difference between mass government book burnings and someone burning their own copy right
>>92185100
Implying that comics are books.
>>92185436
>comic books
>literature
>having any artistic merit
haHAA wheeze
Kaijudo thread, because I'm bored, and I want to see /co/'s opinion on it.
I thought it was OK. Shame it died.
What can't we talk about beside "it was good" and "its obscure"?
>>92185954
It had good waifus.
The reason you hate the new season of Samurai Jack is because it has what you'll never experience. True love. You were happy when everything was just violence and anger and rage and bitterness towards the world because that's how you feel. You inserted into Jack, you lived vicariously through him and acted as if his rage and frustration justified the rage and frustration in your own life. You are victim of a world, but at least you can lash out.
Then suddenly episode 4 comes and Aishi and Jack start interacting and you become uncomfortable. Jack isn't a soulless remorseless badass who is striking out against the world. He's telling jokes, he's smiling and he's going out of the way to try and help someone you would have just killed because you're the victim of this messed up world and anyone who stands against you needs to be cut down. It doesn't even stop there because he's spending more time with Aishi, he's opening up to her and in his moment of weakness she's the one who helps him overcome and slowly rebuild himself.
And you cringe and revolt, because the message you're being told isn't to lash out against the world, but to reach out and try and change it. That what you do isn't pointless and that you aren't all powerful and perfect. That even you are flawed but through others you can find happiness and that the bleakness in your life is simply the product of you folding in on yourself.
Because you look at yourself and you can't self insert into Jack anymore, because you haven't helped anyone, thus no one can help you. There is no one to save you in your darkest hour because you've offered yourself to know one. There is no light at the end for you. No happiness, no redemption, no validation.
You hate Aishi and you hate her relationship with Jack because at your core it denies everything you want to believe about the world.
I just think the pacing, combined with how many plot points it starts and has to end on top of previous season's, is pretty lackluster.
But yes, it's because my dick's dry.
fucking shippers
I kissed my cute bf today and pinched his perfect ass while he bought me icecream.
I also thought the romance was a bit weird and forced and I don't feel like the show needed it.
>>92184610
Funny how everyone assumes that anyone who does not like the shitty romance thinks that they're frustrated when the whole concept of Ashi is based on Gennedy's childhood fantasy.
Besides I always self inserted as Aku even as a child.
it would've been a better ship
Do you think the wolf fucked a tiger?
>>92184534
Only if the wolf had a qt female human form
>>92184934
oh yeah they'd have to, there's NO way jack could take the know on [adult swim]
Isn't one character with Asperger's enough? Was the irony of an empath with autism too much for Gunn to pass up?
>>92184531
Dont know what i just read but it sounds like autism to me.
>>92184531
Why wouldn't a person that can experience everyone else's emotion be awkward as fuck?
>>92184890
Because the ability to understand other people and by extension how to respond to them makes you the opposite of awkward.
Why did it only get one season?
Cause frogs are ugly and not cute.
At least YOUR frog show isn't lost media.
>>92184366
What can I say? People hate frogs.
And really cheap animation.
And bad pacing.
And Tolkienesque fantasy in general.
how autistic am I? HOW AUTISTIC AM I?
>I watched an Extremely Goofy movie religiously
heh so?
>I fapped to Sylvias ass every time
Right this way, sorry to keep you waiting.
>>92184040
I thought BvS was the best movie of 2016.

>>92184040
I enjoy comics and cartoons.
Why does this guy get grief? Hes right about pretty much everything he says or does 95% of the time.
>>92183562
It's because Mako is the voice of reason in a show where everyone else is unreasonable. Thus he seems like the outlier and like he doesn't fit.
>>92183562
He's the epitome of wasted potential. If he had played his cards right, he could've had Korra and Asamiand his brother Bolin too.
>>92183562
The only people who hate him are Korrasami fags and Bolin self inserters.
Do you know how many times hes potrayed as an abuser in fanfics?
Its fucking sad. Mako did nothing wrong.
You are the King of /co/
You have a crown and Double King will stop at nothing to get it
The main character from the last cartoon/comic is the only thing between you and Double King. How fucked are you?
Haven't watched any cartoons/comics in a while so i'll use the closest thing instead
BEGONE THOT
Samurai Jack was what I last watched, so eh. Jack's got this.
He'd find a way to keep me safe
What's ashi playing /co/?
>>92183201
better template for sake of ease
Jak 3.
>>92183290
I meant controller wise, I couldn't decide which handheld console to put in her hands, But jak 3 is on psvita, so that could work
I'm trying so hard to like this guys, but I just can't bring myself to. I know that the age thing shouldn't matter as Jack is still in his 20s, but the fact that he's mentally over 70 still bothers me in the back of mind. I mean when she was born, he was still wandering around as usual.
I'm not against shippers either, but this one is just...eh.
As long as they're both over the age of 18, who gives a shit?
>>92182817
And Aang was a fucking 112 year-old boning a 14 year-old and no one gave a flying fuck about it.
>>92182879
I do.
>>92182929
I didn't watch Avatar.
There are 3 types of people who will see WW:
1) Comic fans
Will bitch about changes from the comics to movie, even if they're better. Will judge the movie based solely on comic accuracy.
2) Marvel fanboys
Will hate-watch the film, shit out their YouTube review and collect whatever little ad revenue they can get nowadays.
3) Everyone else
Will watch it and have fun.
Which one are you?
I'm just not going to watch it at all to be quite honest
Are you guys ACTUALLY interested in this damn shit
>>92182028
I'm not seeing it because you know something is wrong when Chris Pine seems like the best actor and character in the entire movie
>>92182028
I wont be watching it because I dont care about WW
>when you fall in love with an online webcomic artist
Katie is married, anon.
Plebcomics will never notice you, anon.
get on my level, fuckface. I'm in love with a hamburger
