>tl;dr What's bothering you about the industry, and why do you still read comics?
>inb4 'buying comics'
Sorting through my books after much too long and I looked down at all the little piles I made and realized how much money I've spent on these fucking things, and I just felt furious.
I dunno /co/ I'm down on the floor sorting through these books I used to love but in hindsight I think i can count on one hand the ones I've actually enjoyed, instead of following just because I wanted to know what happened. I'm young and idealistic and blah blah blah I wanted to support artists and art but right now my knees fucking hurt and I'm ready to just torrent the shit out of whatever I want.
I'm pissed about all the Marvel Event Burnout and the flat writing on most books. Hell, I'm into the diversity push and I like some of the new takes on old characters, that doesn't bother me like it does a lot of people. But when the writing is shit I wonder why I'm even paying for it and whether people even notice how fucking bad it is! Whether people are balls-to-the-wall into it or hardcore opposed, it seems like the only attention paid is to the political message, not the quality of the delivery of that message.
I'm pissed off about how it seems like people here get angrier over Thor being a woman than Thor being in a shitty book, or how people call Captain Marvel slurs more than they complain about how the shitty events and Bendis derail what could've been a decent story!
I dunno. Sure a lot of this is me seeing only a few threads maybe it's not true whatever. What I wanna know is why do you still read comics /co/?
Also can we just vent for a while and get /co/ stuff you're angry about off our chest? Air your grievances here.
pic unrelated, found in Annihilation Conquest last night when I was enjoying a comic.

I still read comics because there's at least 30-60 years of material in capes alone that's entertaining.
Seriously, read some Golden or Silver Age stuff, and go down through the late 80s. That's still tons of content.
And, beyond that, there's non-superhero stuff that's just as worth reading. Not all indie stuff is pretentious or self-aggrandizing or turbo-leftist.
If you're passionate about a hobby, you'll find that there's always a way around some facet of it that seems to bog it down for a while.

Oh I'm a huge Chris Ware, Burns, Clowes fan. Lynda Barry and Anders Nielsen have been recent faves. I also follow some Image and Oni stuff.
I guess this is really more directed at Marvel or when I tried to get into New 52 more than anything. Golden and Silver age is something I've never really gotten into. What are some of your faves? I'll check it out.
>>
>>88961603
I'll probably make my own thread about it sometime but I feel like Marvel really stopped giving a shit about continuity at some point in the 90s.
Reading the old stuff, stories sync up perfectly. No detail forgotten, no death overlooked, no plot thread left dangling. The further into the 00s we got, the more and more examples there were of writers not even knowing shit about the title character they were writing.
It was probably inevitable, one day there'd be too much accumulated history to keep tabs on. Nonetheless, there's a clear cut-off point after which events really stopped feeling important.

If Captain America can still be from WW2, they can figure out some excuse for Magneto still being alive. His mutation slowing his aging or clones or some shit.

Literal sliding timeline. Literally was explained as such in-universe by Galactus. Magneto can be born 1000 years ago and never age a day. It doesn't matter. Time works in convenient ways in the Marvel universe

>Episode: "Mystery Meat"
Links:
http://kisscartoon.se/Cartoon/Danny-Phantom-Season-01/Episode-001
https://www.watchcartoononline.io/danny-phantom-episode-1-mystery-meat
>What is this?
To commemorate 10 years since Danny Phantom ended, we're celebrating by watching all 53 episodes of the show, one episode every Saturday for all 53 Saturdays in 2017.
>What's happening in this topic?
Once a week, every Saturday, there will be a general created for discussing that week's episode in particular, along with a link to said episode.
>What's the point of this?
It's just a fun little activity to do throughout 2017 to make the year a bit more interesting, nothing more.
>Why Danny Phantom?
I haven't watched the show in years, and when I did, I never saw all the episodes. Plus, there's exactly 53 episodes and 53 Saturdays, so it matched up perfectly.
>This is stupid
It's very possible that's the case, if it is, please feel free to voice your grievances about it here. If enough people hate this, I won't do it, no hard feelings.
IMPORTANT:
Is this a terrible idea? Have better suggestions for a layout for this topic? Know an easy link to all the episodes such as a MEGA? Know how to do it better and want to be in charge of making these topics instead? Want to berate me for making this stupid thing in the first place? Other? Please address these within this topic, it's the reason it was made in the first place.

Aw yea, I totally forgot this was happening. I remember staying up for the premiere during the Kids Choice Awards. Anybody remember the original tagine "Not seeing is believing"? Really did kinda fit the tone that show really had in the beginning of the first season I think.

Butch Hartman said Danny Phantom is in "hibernation." Season 4 is coming. I hope he doesn't make it jump the shark like Fairly Odd Parents.

THIS SUNDAY.
SUNDAY.
SUNDAY.and saturday
Animation Domination returns from holiday break to serve you a fresh round of your favorite shark-jumped animated sitcoms that seriously need to fucking get cancelled. (The "Sunday Funday" name has been officially disowned by FOX, the block is now generic "FOX Sunday", proving to bitter /co/mrades everywhere that "Sunday Funday" was fucking retarded from the start, I'm glad I never changed the general name. Apologize.)
And:
>stream
lol
-Last C.uck on Earth is on mid-season break.
-Bob's Burgers returns, but in Last C.uck's slot.
-You can no longer leave after Family Guy :^)
The schedule is as follows:
>8:00/7:00c - The Simpletons - Pork and Burns (NEW): Marge begins an obsession with a Japanese style of minimalist living and wants the whole family to be a part of it; the family is forced to give up things that no longer bring them joy including Homer's pig and Lisa's sax.
>8:30/7:30c - Nu-Male of Zorn - Radioactive Ex-Girlfriend (NEW): Craig and Edie's engagement party is coming up, pushing everyone to find someone to bring; Alan is confused by his relationship status with Layla while Zorn decides to rekindle an old relationship with his ex Radiana.
>9:00/8:00c - Senpai Gore - Passenger Fatty-7 (NEW): Quagmire sorts out free plane tickets for a guys' trip to San Francisco; the group question Quagmire's skills of flying after seeing the auto-pilot function in action.
>9:30/8:30c - Rob's Wieners - Ex MachTina (NEW): Tina injures her ankle leaving her with no choice but to telecommute to school; Tina signs up for a program that allows her to send a robot to her classes for her.

This is the Top Ten Bleeding Cool Bestseller List, as compiled by a number of comic stores from their sales on Wednesday and Thursday.

And as The Walking Dead outsells every Marvel title, even the fantastic USAvengers #1, Marvel put Batman, Justice League Vs Suicide Squad and Justice League into the top three…. when it comes to boots on the ground, DC continue to outperform.
Batman #14
Justice League #12
Justice League Vs Suicide Squad #3
Walking Dead #162
Superman #14
Nightwing #12
Harley Quinn #11
USAvengers #1
Green Lanterns #14

hanks to the following retailers
Rodman Comics of Ankeny, Iowa
Issues Needed Comics, Apple Valley, Minnesota
Dr. No’s Comics & Games Superstore of Marietta, Georgia
Yesteryear Comics of San Diego, California
Fat Jack’s Comicrypt of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Famous Faces & Funnies of West Melbourne, Florida.
Graham Crackers Comics – 11 locations in the Mid-West
Jesse James Comics, Glendale, Arizona
Who had this to say,
"Marvel manages to get one book into our store’s Top Ten today–and it’s the one Marvel title that stars the legacy version of the hero rather than the replacement version (Unworthy Thor). Otherwise, it’s eight DC titles and one Image (Saga) for our Top Ten this week. I really miss the days when Marvel published books that readers enjoyed…"
"Strong interest in 1990s DC’s–Superman, Action, Batman, Flash, and Justice League. Also a renewed interest in 1990s Captain America from folks who miss the days when he was an admirable hero."

"SOOOO…US Avengers was #1. I assume that Marvel put out a ton of covers to show that the book could make enough money to keep it going until next year….Worlds Avengers #1 same time next year !!!. The rest of the books did really well since it was a light week…thanks publishers."
"Seven to Eternity is moving with any printing…which is always a good sign. X-Men,X-Force and Wolverine back-issues are also moving in droves."
"Not a great way to start the new year. Sales were typical January sales. Justice League vs Suicide Squad 3 takes the top spot. The weekly release is great. Old Man Logan is the only Marvel book to make it into the top ten. I say this because it is now really a big concern. Marvel sales keep falling in store. I kept thinking they could go no lower but they have every month. I figured Marvel would figure out that they are having their own “DC You” freefall and start correcting it. After reading the previews for March and seeing nothing really exciting from Marvel I am now worried. Man Thing is getting his own title? The current market will not support it."
