confirmation bias

Same reason why musicians are always depressed. Their art serves as an outlet for releasing their inner frustrations and escaping the real world.

Did they?

Did they, or are you just an idiot?

JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION JEEZ

>tfw canceled

Miracleman started out as Marvelman, an old UK comics character "inspired" by Captain Marvel (Fawcett Comics' Cap Marvel, now called Shazam). "Inspired" meaning "tremendously ripped-off." He had everything that Billy had, from the magic word that turned him into a hero to the extended family of Kids and Juniors.
Then, in the 80s, Alan Moore reimagined him for an anthology called Warrior, giving him a new gritty, introspective, compelling story. It was later reprinted for the US as MiracleMan for legal reasons and after Moore left the strip, Neil Gaiman jumped in to continue it. But then it got tangled into a major legal quagmire involving Gaiman, Todd McFarlane, Image Comics and a bunch of other players. After a lot of back and forth Marvel finally cleared out all the legal issues and are able to reprint it, although on Moore's request they have erased his name from the book and sent all the royalties to the family of MarvelMan's original writer/artist.
Anyway, it's good stuff. Anything by Alan Moore (or as Marvel has it, "The Original Writer") and Gaiman is good.

That's it, what i don't recall if the change of name was before or after the reboot.

Miracleman is an amazing series, but everyone thinks it should had been part of Vertigo and not Marvel. But is fine.


Marvelman was pretty much a Silver age Captain Marvel
Miracleman was about a guy that recall a lost life as a superhero and discover he actually is one.
Sentry and pic related are rip off of miracleman.

Why are you so angry Deadpool?

Actually, what are you implying?

>>80733663
I've read every Spider-Man comic, he was a great Peter, but a shitty Spider-Man

I dunno, I dropped out of comics altogether for a few years before recently coming back to it, and I don't closely follow movie news because I like to have some surprise left when I'm finally watching the movie.

I'm currently reading through the whole of ASM so I guess Spider-Man. Minor obsession since age 7.

>>80733630

I don't even know what's happening in ASM right now. He's, like, in Shanghai now and running his own multinational company and is posing as his own bodyguard much like old school Iron Man?

>>80733471
Daredevil is the same for me op. I've been collecting the essentials and once i'm done with that just all shit related. Yellow is my fave story of him

>The death involved will be meaningless if you have not read it and if you have is a hell of a lot more meaningful and impactful if you know the character involved.

That goes for every death, anon.

Anyhow, here's Dinobot.

If you really don't want people to open that pic you shouldn't start the thread with it.

I actually like Kevin smith but I can't get myself to watch that

May i suggest fatman on batman. Its a podcast (and i think now a little youtube talk show) that was previously kevin smith interviewing peole involved with batman. but for a while now has basically been an everything comic related talk show/podcast with kavin smith and marc bernardin.

Mockingbird, of course!

That is Sharon Carter not Mockingbird.

>Bucky in Civies
>Fighting Agent 13
I'd say, about ~Act 1/ beginning of the movie. The hunt ...

So, no moles yet.

Literally anything is better than the reboot.

>>80731526
Even TTG?

>>80731548
At least that thing is self aware and has a good joke every 5 months.

Cause people view that stuff as being for kids

>>80730878
Movies carry a sense of legitimacy that other mediums do not.
I think partially because of how well regarded actors are and how much money they cost and make.
Also I think they are the closest people get to the idea seeming like its a real thing. Even though in many ways its just as cartoonish or fantastical. Because its real people filmed in such a way that makes them look like events really unfolding, i think it resonates with far more people than other forms of media.

>>80730878
>why does the live-action movie medium make such a huge impact on people?

>Why are movies a mass media to the extent that they are?

Are you really asking this question? Cause that's a hell of a question, with reasons both historical and cultural.

>>80730832

Anyone who loves 90s Disney musicals and hates either The Princess and the Frog, Tangled, or Frozen is a complete fucking retard who is so blinded by nostalgia they don't even know why they liked those movies in the first place.

That's also ignoring Winnie the Pooh and Wreck-It Ralph, which were also fantastic.

>>80730910
wew lad, you even got frozen in there! and kept a straight face! well, tone

>>80730910
This is factual.
Frozen wasnt the best movie but its become popular to hate it just because its popular.
And wreck it ralph was on level with any of the older movies like Mulan or Aladdin not to mention Zootopia which BTFOs some of the older movies

>>80730811
>Thanos is the gun

>>80730811
