>Imagine if you will, you're a fan of CBS' You love Melissa Benoist, the dynamic is great, the stories are exciting... It's exactly what you've been looking for in a TV show (and the roughly seven million viewers who watched this week agree with you)! As a fan, you've already trolled the cast members' Instagrams daily, made your fan-art, and are ready to take it to the next level: you want to read the comics.
>So you march into a comic book store, and ask to pick up the new "Supergirl" comic. Well, you can't: it was cancelled in May, 2015 -- five months before the new show premiered on TV. And even then, that version of Supergirl had little to no resemblance to what is currently airing on TV... She was an angry, powerful alien who landed on Earth as a fully-costumed adult, battled Superman, and basically had no friends.
>"Supergirl" isn't the only problem here, though... When it comes to Marvel and DC's superhero output, the problem is industry wide. There have been varying tacks taken, and different strategies, but ultimately there are two ways of addressing this issue that must be taken, or Big Two superhero comics will continue to die on the vine.

No. Casuals can buy tv tie-in comics if they want, I don't understand the point of making every version the same.
>>
>>80394447
No. Obviously not. People don't read comics because they want the movies, they read comics because they want the comics.

If a character or team gets a movie/tv show then yeah, they should have an ongoing at the same time so that fans of those things have an avenue into the universe, but turning the universe into a mirror of the movie/tv show just ruins what made it special in the first place.

Why did it take DC so many decades to credit Bill Finger for creating Batman?

Bob Kane and his estate worked tooth and nail to make sure he had the sole credit.

The early 2000's was a very strange time for Disney in general. It's a shame that this show didn't really catch on because it was a pretty clever show

Which is a shame. They want to compete with streaming services yet they keep rehashing episodic comedy shit that people forget about because they're so common.

They need to focus on long-term investment series. Serialized shit that can be binged watched when they sell rights to Netflix, DVD box sets, stories that will keep the hardcore fans invested and wanting to come buy and guarantee their money for merch.

Gravity Falls got super popular because it had a mystery question "Who is the Author?" that people kept tuning into in hopes that maybe they would reveal more.

Steven Universe has that same element of mystery where we tune in because we want to know "Who is Pink Diamond" or whatever the other billion questions are.

Avatar was successful because people got to invest time into the story and follow the characters and wanted to see their journey come to an end.

Venture Brothers manages to keep a fanbase despite 4-year long hiatuses because they ended up capturing a diehard fanbase (The true 1000 fans method) who have also invested so much time in the lives in these characters, they want to see it play out. Merch for VB, what little merch they have, sells out like fucking candy because of how cultish their fans are.

But no let's keep approving shit like Breadwinners, Sanjay & Craig, Cupcakery of Doom, and that stupid fucking Sausage piece of shit because we refuse to adapt to current trends and move from our talent scouting methods that were successful in the 90's. Fuck just reboot everything 90's fuck Nickelodeon.

Rough and gutteral, something that sounds really old.

If congress decided that Superman couldn't be trusted to use his powers responsibly, what exactly could they do about that?
What is the extent of the government's ability to restrain Superman, legally and logistically speaking?

>legally
Zero if he doesnt interfer with police or military affairs. Arguments could be made that he is an illegal aliean but the worst congress could do was banish him fron united states soil.

I've always thought that if anyone as powerful as Superman showed up the governments of the world should probably think of them less like individuals and more like countries themselves

Someone like Superman is impossible to contain or combat by conventional means so you have to ask "Are we as a nation prepared to go to war with this superpower" if the answer is no then a treaty or non-aggression pact would be the best thing for everybody

>>80381483
>>80381568
These pretty much sum it up in the best way
They could attempt to deport him in some fashion but when it comes to force they have little to no options depending on how much/little is known about Supes in that medium
I'd love to see this turned on other characters like Captain Marvel or the metal men

Could be worse.
The series could be rebooted and he could have been made a high schooler again.

That's the way go with all the tv shows and movies, I wouldn't be surprised if they did that.

It will only happen when the MCU does it and MJ gets popular again.
