The only ongoings that sold below SG were Howling Commandos of SHEILD, the AoS tie-in and Silver Surfer.

It never entered the top 20 on comixology.

>Silver Surfer

>Slott can outsell a hero whose main power is fetal alcohol syndrome
>>
>>78182134
ANAD is proof that the relaunch only boosts #1 sales. Which probably does lengthen the lifetime a little, but they can't expect it to sustain their line in the long run.

Let's not laugh too loud. After all, this will be Vision's numbers next month.

Sounds pretty beaten to me.

Can't wait till it gets cancelled and tumblrinas who don't understand that things have to sell and make money in order to keep going, start complaining how Marvel hates curvy women and everything on this earth. :)
>>
>>78182480
Vision numbers are frozen for the next month since they are matching #2 orders with #1 for free.

KSD's Captain Marvel would like to have a word with you.
>>
>>78182093

Is it normal that I want to stick daggers into my eye sockets every time I see this art?
>>
>>78182648
Yeah, well, how ever that book's still up and running is beyond me. It's some serious Harry Potter level magic.
>>
>>78182865
It isn't STILL up and running. But it went on for longer than any book before it with those sales.
If you talk about it enough on Tumblr and Twitter, I guess it'll stick around despite awful sales.
>>
So do you guys think it's the pencils that killed this book or the fact that its a comedy book?

I'll admit I don't think I ever read past the preview from the original #1. Something about the gleeful violence didn't sit right with me tonally.
>>
Even the saveBrendaFreiser fundation couldnt save this comic
>>
I'll pick up Squirrel Girl once the artist learns how to draw a mouth that isn't mid-chew.

>>78182608
God damn it that's such an improvement.
>>
>>78182189
Howling Commandos is selling that low? That is depressing.
>>
>>78182944
It's the pencils. People love shitty comedy, just look at Harley.
>>
>>78182944
It is a book about fucking Squirrel Girl!
>>
>>78182911
>STILL
Oops, my bad. I assumed it was still on.

I think Marvel literally has to keep at least some of their female titles going despite the poor sales just to avoid PR nightmares and to save face.
>>
>>78182944
Yes. If the art wasn't garbage then more people would've given it a shot.
>>
>>78182134
>Trades

SG does... okay in trades. Vol2 dropped in November and was 15th highest trade, just shy of 3k sold. The title would still be on death's door with those numbers.
>>
>>78182608
Hmm, looks better. The face still looks a bit retarded with the downs eyes and her mouth about to slide off her cheeks like that, and it could do without the erect nipples poking through the leather top, it's a little much. But a pretty decent attempt by /co anon.
>>
>>78182608
Looks like some guy has no idea how to draw legs.
>>
>>78183812
Maybe it was Liefeld?
>>
>>78183767
I don't think that's a nipple, just a corner that could have been smoothed more.

Link? Don't tell me she defended her shit art by saying it was just dudes crying about how un-sexy it is.
>>
>>78184394
>>78184551
When you get down to it, that really is all that the fuss is about.

This comic is purposefully drawn the way it is, and it gets you people mad.

So Marvel will probably let them keep doing it just to spite you dumbshits.
>>
>>78182093
Doesn't seem too far off from the prior series.

>>78184635
I'm not a dude that reads comics to jerk off to spandex titties, I'm a female artist who thinks that her art fucking sucks and it bothers me that there are tons of more capable artists, female or otherwise, that could blow Henderson's pig-nosed shit out of the water. Hell yeah I'm mad.
>>
>>78184800
Good art is a lesser concern. Opposing the Dude Menace comes first.
>>

the artist shouldn't have too many imaginary confrontations.

Get the fuck out Erica.

There is neither cameltoe nor a goatee in that image, but okay
>>
>>78182093
I guarantee that if they kept North as the writer but got a new artist, it would sell 100x better.
>>
>>78185381
I think they're reading the lip shadow as a soulpatch.
>>
>>78182223
You're a fucking idiot, do you really think Marvel is in the business of wasting money?
>>
>>78184983

>>78185845
They keep relaunching Carol, even after shitty sales. Its not that farfetched.

Not any moreso than assuming digital sales are good because they keep relaunching it.
>>
>>78182093
I'm sure Marvel will use the "i-i-it sells well in digital" defense where they need no proof at all. North may or may not get more jobs at Marvel, Henderson almost certainly will shit up more books in the future.
>>
>>78185845
>Do you really think companies spend money for the purpose of generating positive publicity for themselves?

...Yes?
>>
>>78182093
Marvel will always refuse to cancel titles that most people hate and have terrible sales.

They need to keep the Captain Marvel trademark in print.
>>
>>78186480
Based Kirkman.
>>
>>78186504
What about giving the title to one of Mar-Vell's children?
>>
>>78186599
They want Carol to be their Wonder Woman because she has the best shot at it.

>carol and squirrel girl are getting big in the comics
>at the same time marvel said fuck you to AAA devs making games for them
>I will never get a mvc4 with carol and squirrel girl
>Even if I did it would be shitty erica SG

why is fate so cruel to me, at least I got doctor strange
>>
>>78186824
Knowing Capcom, they'd use the Sandoval design instead.
>>
>>78186713
That's obviously not working no matter how hard they try and push "Carol Corp."
>>
>>78186840
I would not mind that as its just a SLIGHTLY better version of hendersons.
>>
>>78186914
Nah, Hendorson's design would be rejected for the same reason as Venom. The melty-face would take too much memory to render.
>>
>>78184983

>>78183246

thats just fucking sad. if female characters arent selling its the fucking customers fault
>>
>>78182608
is that chest hair on left SG
>>
>>78186713
Their good female characters are all muties. One of the few amusing things about being an X-fag in this era of Marvel.
>>
>>78190854
In fact, Squirrel Girl was a mutie until 2 weeks ago. Shit is hilarious because Perlmutter and the Quesada crew hate muties.
>>
Why doesn't Marvel push Quasar as the newest Captain Marvel? Fans would take it down a lot easier than boring Carol, and she already has a success under her belt with GotG...
