Cartoon threads are filled with autistic manchildren waifu faggots with no self-control. They keep fucking making waifu threads and most cartoon threads that don't start as one eventually devolves into a waifu circlejerk.
I used to to think people who wanted a comic and cartoon split were stupid as hell, but it's the only way to save comic threads without them being drowned out with waifus from mediocre cartoons with zero substance.
I also believe that most comic waifu threads are made by cartoon anons who are too fucking stupid to read anything that isn't Gwenpool.

The way men and boys are portrayed in cartoons is perfectly fine. If women want perfect ideal characters to represent women so be it. At the end of the day male characters will embody fun and foolshiness while women embody rigidity and plainness.

The Loud House is insanely good and up there with the best cartoon shows of all time.

It is however true that as a whole /co/ media is in dire straits of creative bankruptcy and SJW cancer. The lack of talent and effort is very noticeable, ranging from writing to animation to art. Sometimes I feel that the glory days are truly over and that we will never recover.

I hate live action and don't watch any of the capeshit movies. Live action is an inferior medium compared to animation and comics.

I stopped reading comics a long while ago because they're vastly inferior to manga and nothing that happens in them matters in the end. There are loli doujins with better art, storylines and emotional impact than anything Marvel, DC or overhyped celebrity writers shit out. The whole medium is that bad.

Adventure Time was the beginning of the end and I hated it from the start.

Reboots, sequels and so on are pure cancer and it ties in with the above mentioned.

I prefer Inhumans over mutants as the go to power generator since so far the Inhumans haven't absorbed in of the outside characters into their books the way the X-men tend to do.

Literally crucify? No.

No, that one must have passed me by, could you fill me in, also going to need some context here about the whole "promoting violence about women?" thing, because that sounds like it'd be kinda justified.

Also, ostracised, yes. But I'd argue that practically goes with the territory, and /co/ really doesn't like the kind of stuff these tumblr types seem to really like, so it seems to me that you're never going to please everybody anyway.

A thread could be full of people trying to have legitimate discussion over it, but as long as there's one female character then you assuredly have some bitter autist coming in to declare that it's shit and /co/ only likes it because it has waifus because god forbid anyone legitimately like something that they don't.

Alright anon I have to ask, are you saying that while keeping in mind what it was like at the time, or are you reflecting on it from a modern point of view?

/co/ doesn't actually like or want more adult-oriented western cartoons, they like and want more action cartoons aimed at kids and teenagers like they do in Japan (but they can't be too violent because that's edgy).

Not really. Forcing MLP off of /co/ created a precedent that if you don't like show x you can with enough bitching and false flagging force all discussion about it off of /co/, which has happened numerous times since then.

Best part is that this kind of behaviour is 100% sanctioned by mods and janitors.

Honestly, movie and live action shit killed it harder. mlp was awful for all of 4chan and so was homostuck but Movie fags were just uncontainable. It was and still is a bunch of casuals coming from other chans on to here because they liked the most mediocre blockbuster and treating it like it was the worst or best thing on earth. In reality it was just okay. And that's fine but making a big deal out of what on an actual scale would be a 7/10, is pathetic.

I just want to talk about comics and cartoons. Not comics, cartoons, political bullshit, and live action shit.

SJW have much more weight in the real world atm, especially in the media. So you might get welcomed on /co/, but ostracized or even blacklisted in the real world. Which is kind of a real threat.

That's why we won't get comics about macho Caucasian playboys or sexy ladies in skimpy costumes anytime soon, nor would we be able to create them without serious real life repercussions.
>>
>>86985123
No. mlp was forced off of everything because it was on EVERY BOARD. EVERY. FUCKING. BOARD. Do you not remember how insane mlp got when it was popular? It invaded everything. The mods did what they did because it was killing 4chan.

Age of Ultron isn't as bad as /co/ says it is.

Yes, the Natasha/Bruce romance was forced and totally fucking pointless.
Yes, there were too many quips, thanks Joss!
Yes, they should've stuck with Ultron's original design and his teeth were fucking retarded.
Yes, the flying trailer was a bit silly.
Yes, the movie is fucking bloated.

HOWEVER, the action holds up, that quality MCU fight choreography is there, it tells an interesting story and a good chunk of the movie is dedicated to the super heroes being super heroes and saving people, which you don't see a lot of these days.

This is a movie that could've been saved in editing. Trim the fat and this could've been the Avengers sequel we were all hoping for.

Watchmen is fedora shit and the britbong invasion ultimately made comics worse. None of those guys can really write and their work pales in comparison to top tier manga or yuro shit or even a few Americans like Frank Miller or Howard Chaykin or Carl Barks or Don Rosa, all of which were just vastly superior storytellers.

The Loud House is the best cartoon this year by a wide margin. Luna is best girl.

Comics are boring as shit and their fans are a cancer to this board.

Mighty Magiswords is okay, not anything great, but I think most of the hate for it comes from that autist who got told off by Kyle and started whining on deviantart and here. It's at least more watchable than TTG or SU.

Speaking of SU, those have to be the ugliest character designs I've ever seen in a cartoon. It's so disgusting when people post them in cheesecake threads, sorry but there is nothing you can do to make them look passable. That shit makes me want to puke.

South Park is the "I'M TOO SMART TO VOTE FOR EITHER CANDIDATE WE'RE FUCKED EITHER WAY XDDD" of political views and its schtick wore out two Presidential elections ago.
>>
Disney movies since they abandoned traditional, hand-drawn animation has have been shit and that Frozen is as popular as it is despite being a mediocre movie at best is a fucking travesty.

I think I actually kind of dislike the tumblr audience that actually likes modern Disney movies.

Aquaman is a good character that has potential to be a great one. They've been doing better recently but the "lol Aquaman sux" bullshit has NEVER been true.

Mera is also one of the best female characters DC has.

Wonder Woman similarly has a lot of potential, but people mostly only know her as a female icon. Also instead of writing her as an Amazonian warrior who WILL kill you, they should fuck off with that and write her as a loving pacifist who always tries to solve conflict through non-violent means and negotiation. She should only have to fight when absolutely necessary, mostly while she's on the Justice League. While on the JL, she should play the role of a negotiator. She should also be even more averse to killing than even Superman. Seriously, the whole, "Wonder Woman totally kills!" nonsense should fuck right off. It's NEVER made complete sense for her character.

The DC universe is overall more interesting and cool than the Marvel universe.

I love Western cartoons but the medium as a whole is inferior to anime.

I'm pretty liberal and completely agree with the so-called "SJW" on a lot of their social points. But when it comes to comics or vidya I find myself forced to take the opposite side all the time because in these fandoms they seem to focus on being offended by every insignificant detail, forcing inane Tumblr memes into writing, and trying to cover up every fictional woman because sexy designs are the devil apparently.

All I hear is lame excuses and the stench of 5-year old butthurt. MLP discussion on /co/ never affected the board itself outside of janitors going full retard and trying to ban discussion of a cartoon on a cartoon board without any kind of heads up which naturally led to backlash.

Or are you conveniently forgetting that /mlpg/ successfully self-moderated itself for over a year, having only one thread up at any given time, before /mlp/ was created?

AoU was the type of movie that I liked enough to be angry that it wasn't better.

They don't like it and have preconceived notions of it. I know a few people who drink the coolaid a little too hard. Whenever I talked about 4chan they acted like I was practically a neonazi.

At the same time, this basically means it's ironic shitposting which honestly isn't better.

Getting a fucking rule made to ban you from posting anything relating to a show anywhere but a containment board doesn't happen due to people disliking something or being butthurt, it happens due to a fanbase massively overstepping its bounds.

Female characters should look sexy (unless they're a monster, very old, or supposed to be ugly). Just sexy in different, diverse ways. They shouldn't all have sameface, samebody, skimpy outfits, and giant breasts. But they all should look sexy.

Frank Miller was a genius who revolutionized American comic book industry in mid-80s. Two other men did it with him: Will Eisner and Alan Moore.

Stop motion is the best form of animation.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. whether you like it or not.

I will never watch anything by Chris-Chan, but I will read of his exploits.

Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt is a better western cartoon than most actual western cartoons.

Pax Americana is the best comic of the 2010s so far.

The term "graphic novel" came from standalone fantasy/sci-fi comics of the 70s that wanted to attract more adult readers and didn't want to be associated with capeshit. Eisner's Contract with God was the first decent "graphic novel", it attracted attention from comic professionals (if not the general readership), and influenced the trend. Spiegelman's Maus followed suit, and I guess I should mentioned it too as an influence.

The best episodes of TTG are about as good as the best episodes of AT, RS, SU etc.

Amazing World of Gumball is severely underrated, probably because its a slapstick show and doesn't deliver on "muh lore, muh drama"

I don't have any problems with companies adding gay, trans, or minority characters in comics, or interracial relationships. Minority people need to be able to read about cool heroes that are like them.

Marvel should have stuck with the real time thing. We could be on the second or third generation of characters now.

Serial comics is a giant scam, peiple should stop taking the bait when companies troll for ragebuys and just buy trades of good runs instead

2 reasons:

The important thing is
A) not rubbing it in the faces of pre-existing fans who, it being comics we're talking about, are loathe to literally any change
B) making the characters actually characters over "I'm the black one!" "I'm the gay one!" and so on

Look at Claremont's X-Men. Insanely diverse team that actually worked right from the get-go because the man was actually writing a damn story instead of masturbating to how progressive he was.

I mean, he was still masturbating, but not about that.

There was a billboard featuring Apocalypse choking Mystique with the tagline "Only the Strong Will Survive," the message being "Mystique/JLaw is our hero! How will she get out of this one?" but to some out of touch Hollywood liberals like Rose Mcgowan it seemed like it was implying "weak women" wouldn't survive. So she complains publicly, others do as well, Fox apologizes, even though it wasn't the intent or even the actual content of the poster, and the crybully culture gets a little bit stronger.

No doujinshins don't do well because it would fall under american copyright laws and get canned so fucking fast it's not even funny. Japanese have different copyright laws that lets people get away with using their characters.

Artists squeak through because they are small and suing everyone for profiting five bucks for art of characters is pointless. But an actual physical porn book of a mouse character would have you sued so fast. Doujinshins just can't exist while the current laws prohibit it.

Tumblr isn't that much of a threat to our way of life.

Comics and cartoons are both in a low place right now, but while this is only a temporary setback for cartoons, capeshit comics have started their slow and painful march to certain doom. Rebirth is only daying the inevitable. The only real question is whether the live action capeshit franchise bubble bursts first.

The real issue with /co/ is that it lacks true elitist culture. On /a/, /fa/, /fit/, even to an extent /pol/, it's easy to tell apart newfags from oldfags and regulars. There's a generally agreed upon canon of what is considered "unquestionably good". /co/ has it to some degree with comics (Doom Patrol, Watchmen), but it lacks it entirely with live action capeshit and cartoons (Samurai Jack and Over the Garden Wall come close, but just fall short). When it's impossible to distinguish between oldfag and newfag you get the splurge of crossposters from /tv/ (another board with this problem), Leddit, and of course Tumblr. In short, western animation tv needs its Legends of the Galactic Heroes.

The SJW takeover is real and inevitable. A Trump loss is basically predetermined at this point, the meme magic of 2016 is starting to wear thin. That doesn't mean we should become autistic like /v/, but we do need to be aware that there will be pushback in every area of the playing field, from small scale webcomics to large scale blockbusters. Just remember thaf the real villains are not the autists on Tumblr who peddle this crap, but the retarted corporate shits who buy into it.

Strven Universe isn't that bad, and a majority of /co/ either likes it or doesn't care about it. Ultimately the rash of threads constantly on the front page are there because it is incredibly easy to farm for (you)s by just criticizing the show.

What could they do that they haven't already done in comics?
Eradicate all straight while male characters?
Turn married superheroes into literal cucks?
Pair all white women with black men, no exception, in a partnership with Blacked?
Give all superheroes genderfluid identities with weird pronouns?
Make all female heroes wear potato sacks to remove any last hints at sexuality?
Fill the comics with Tumblr memes and SJW buzzwords?
No, seriously, what?

You're stupid.
There are 3 types of players on that field.
1. The ideologues that create the narrative;
2. People in politics, corporations, businesses, and yes, entertainment companies that buy into the narrative;
3. Dumb kids on social media who buy into the narrative.

1 is the root of their movement, but their influence is indirect and not easily distinguishable. 2 is the most dangerous because their ideologically motivated actions can have real repercussions. 3 are just a bunch of yes-men, the worst they could do is provide fodder for the media (who are a part of 2).

Nah dude unpopular opinion threads on reddit are identical to the ones here. Just post after post of people saying "Uhh that's not actchually an unpopular opinion".

Mostly unpopular opinions boil down to brave folk boldly stating that something that got mad hype for a bit didn't deserve all the mad hype it got. That it was good but not literally flawless like hardcore fans try to sell you on. Same shit here and there. Different names though occasionally.
>>
Since this seems to have become the topic of the thread

Hating a work because you disagree with the creator's views or the views expressed by the work makes you a petulant child.
Learn to look at things from an objective standpoint.

That being said, I think that the writing for a lot of the Big 2 comics nowadays is pretty shit and the art has always ranges from terrible to "meh" for me.
>>
Frank Miller and Alan Moore were the worst things to happen to comics.

Nothing will top the storytelling and creativity in the golden and silver ages. Not just cape, EC and Disney included here too.

I consider all stories pretty much after the 1980's as optional canon.

I don't enjoy Netflix Marvel. I find it too bleak and gritty. I think its afraid to be a superhero show. I want to see Daredevil facing Stilt Man and the Owl not Punisher.

Punisher and Deadpool are my least favorite popular characters.
>>
>>86991004
I agree.

However, hating on a work because the creator's views made him or her fuck it up, fuck up its characters, or turn it into preachy bullshit, is perfectly justifiable.
>>
>>86991067
the worst thing to happen to comics is still Bendis
>>
>>86990741
The same thing we've wanted to do for years: Restart the board. Wipe the slate clean. Take out all the old guard, put in some new blood. Rethink fanservice entirely, whether that means removing it or adding in more male fanservice to balance things out. Add more obvious throws to social justice, a la genderfluidity.

Basically do what Marvel's doing now, but rather than putting guys like Bendis on those projects instead filling the ranks with younger artists. Think about how CN basically restructured around the new guard in the post-Flapjack era.

From there? In capeshit comics, not much.

I value artists way more than I do writers when it comes to comics. Most comic writers are hacks and interchangeable. The artist is what makes and breaks the comic. More people go to see a movie because of the director than they do the screenwriter. I don't know why this logic doesn't apply to comics, another visual medium.

Cartoonists who write and draw their own work are the ideal of the comics medium.
>>
>>86991255
The difference is that guys like Bendis, as hard as they try, really don't "get" social justice and Tumblr crap, not in the same way that, say, Stveen Universe does. And that hurts them because any momentum they get from fangirls picking up their comics from following the MCU is instantly dashed to the wind with convoluted canon, clickbait storylines, and straight up bad writing.

A replacement of the guard would chance that. Best case means more hipster comics a la Lumberjanes, worst case is more Hellcat's and Squirrel Girl's.
>>
Jon Stewart is, if not the best GL, at least tied for best.
>>
>>86991420
But we already get Hellcats and Squirrel Girls. Even if they turn all female-targeted comics into Bitch Planet, that's not the end of the world. Because they need to earn money, and their best-selling comics are still male-targeted.

If they go full retard, even that may be a positive because it could influence indie competitors to appear and publish stuff Marvel won't. And while it would be sad to see it happen to Marvel characters, well, it's not like they haven't been dragged through a lot of shit already.

Japan has stricter copyright laws than the US. An episode of Osomatsu-san could not be packaged with blurays or put on streaming sites because it violated copyright law by being to close to the properties they were parodying.
>>
>>86991649
I'm just proposing a hypothetical endgame here, economic feasability aside. An industry-wide thing here.

Truth be told it won't be that bad. But we will feel it, if not in capeshit comics then definately in whatever capeshit movies that stille cist in the future, and most certainly in television.

It'll also be interesting to see how that (further) affects webcomics. Truth be told there really isn't a truly popular (for the right reasons) webcomic with a truly wholehearted SJW push. This eill chance sooner or later.

I don't disagree. The name sake was clearly cynical in nature as they wanted to use the name for sales. However, the entire tone of comic was fucked by aaron.

Decompression in comics is the best thing for the medium.

It always the art and story to flow better. When I read a comic I want the panels to flow fluidly and naturally.

I think the second Clone Wars show was better then the first. The second one had better story, made me really feel for the characters, and made the Star Wars universe seem a lot bigger then it was before.

I think that Kevin being redeemed in Alien Force was stupid. Guy was a psychopath in the original series, didn't seem to have any redeeming qualities at all.

I think Transformers Animated is one of the best Transformers series ever, and that Sari was actually decent for a "human" character, her true nature as a techno organic aside. The only complaint I have is that it was cancelled too soon and that we never got to see Unicron show up and see what kind of character he was. And that Sentinel Prime never got any comeuppance for his countless acts of dicketry.

How about let white men write comics they want, non-white men write comics they want, and women write comics they want?

If you want a strictly non-white-male perspective, you can always just buy specifically the books written by female and minority authors. And not buy any books written by white men.

I honestly think it's because he geniunely enjoys prose more than comics. He has respect for the medium but he is tired of people like Bendis constantly disrespecting the works of other writers and loathes how comics are more concerned with sales than a good story.

I think the ultimate killer though was how badly he was fucked by Todd McFarlane. I think that totally killed his interest in writing as many stories for comics as he was previously.

I just hope that if Gaiman works for Marvel, they give him his own line which is a cross between Young Animal and Vertigo in terms of the types of stories that can be told

You missed the part where I said this perspective is dominating all of media? All of it. People besides straight white men aren't afforded the same opportunities as them, don't own as much, aren't given the same benefit of the doubt, none of that and as we see if it deviates at all from what is normal it's SJW this, diversity bullshit that. We live in a bubble where the only lends of the world is out of white male eyes.

>>86995994
There just should never be an office with only men. The Superman office throughout the Nu52 was filled with confirmed sexist men. That makes zero sense. If you can have women in the office and it not be a problem chances are we have a higher caliber of people putting out higher caliber stories.

So hire women and non-white men to write comics from different perspectives. Which is exactly what comic companies do. That's still not an excuse to remove stuff you don't like from existence.

Not to mention "white males" are not a hivemind. They have different backgrounds, views, tastes and opinions. Frank Miller is different from Matt Fraction.

You're moving the goalposts. Sexists =/= men. Don't hire "confirmed sexists", and hire non-sexist comic creators regardless of gender.

That's bullshit. Women aren't fucking canaries that you let into a mine to test it for sexism. They're individuals, and men are individuals. Hire the best individuals to do the job you need.

WW costumes with pants are okay in my book if they don't clash with her style, and if they're done for the right reasons. "Pants are practical in combat" is a bullshit reason (e.g. Greeks and Romans didn't wear pants in combat). The fact that historically Greeks often depicted Amazons wearing pants is a good reason.

Carol does have a better costume, the old one was bland. It's more derivative though. Also, new costume shouldn't mean she should get a masculine body.

Jess - hahaha no. New costume is a Chinese ripoff of Hawkeye with some Batgirl added for good measure. It's too busy and unmemorable. Old Jessica is classica.

>>86996589

How do you expect that to happen with a single woman in the offices? Also, again, not all opportunity is available equally to all and we're missing the female perspective. Y'know what had to be done for orchestras to accept more women? The auditioners legit had to play behind a curtain with a carpet to mask them. There's a thing called bias which can trump merit, I know that's a difficult concept but not complex.

>>86996805
>Roxane Gay is Marvel's first black woman writer and you're telling me this is common practice?
They've been hiring female or minority editors and writers since the 90s. Maybe they didn't hire enough, but that depends on how many you consider "enough".

And in any case. If they need minority perspectives in comics, they should hire minority comic writers. I still don't see how this leads to not hiring white male writers, or what would it even solve.
>>
>>86996973
I remember there was a black female comic creator back in the 40s. She made newspaper comics, which was a better job than working for comic books at the time.

I'm assuming you're this guy

>If you want a strictly non-white-male perspective, you can always just buy specifically the books written by female and minority authors.

What I'm saying is they aren't afforded the same opportunity on the same scale as white men. It's like you need a political cartoon to picture what I'm saying.

Enough is where anything different isn't scorned for being tumblr, sjw, diversity pandering, etc.

Then companies should afford them the same opportunity. Still don't see what leap of logic would lead from that to eradicating white male perspectives, or what that would solve.

>Enough is where anything different isn't scorned for being tumblr, sjw, diversity pandering, etc.
That's a strawman and you know it.

And in any case, what does that sentence even mean. They should fire white men and hire non-white non-men as long as some anons make complaining posts on 4chan? Wut?

I never enjoyed Teen Titans, it never appealed to me and I hate how it seemed to be ashamed of being part of the DC Universe. His name is fucking Deathstroke.

Animaniacs and Tiny Toons aren't very good and have aged very poorly. Pinky and The Brain is very good, and Freakazoid was easily the best.

If you like BvS, that's fine, I get it. But I am astonished at how some people can fool themselves into thinking it's some sort of masterpiece.

Gotham is a pretty great show. I think most of the people who think it's shit haven't seen an episode since it premiered, and since then it's gotten way better. Even if you think it's shit, you should still watch it just because it's viscerally entertaining.

Go to fucking /tv/ to whine about them, for the trillionth time, might I add.

I really love the MCU, while not perfect it always keeps me entertained and makes me feel good. I have depression and hanging out with friends when a new movie comes out always keeps me in a good mood for a couple of hours. It's one of the few things that excite me anymore.

Elseworld stories in comics are usually my favorite and I wish the Big Two did much more of them. Stories deconstructing superheroes are also some of my favorite.

I really, really don't like house style art and it bothers me that Rebirth has so many comics with bland art (to be expected because of the schedule). Speaking of Rebirth, I don't think it's the second coming of Jesus and I think /co/ exaggerates with how good it is.

Current Marvel is pretty bad, but not because of the diversity push. Constant events and the same 4-5 writers doing the books is what kills it for me. They still have a couple of good comics though, with Old Man Logan being the most underrated on /co/. Spencer is also not that bad of a writer, Steve Rogers is keeping me entertained so far.

I don't disagree, I'll only state that comics are inherently cheaper / easier to produce by virtue of their medium (a small collection of still images, versus 24 or more images a second for 30 minutes to an hour) and that means they can potentially have much better visual quality.

Eastern animation of the last five years has been as creatively barren as the rest of mainstream media, anon, if not even more so. Just because the majority of it is aimed at a different demographic doesn't make it more "deep" by default.

It doesn't help that adults are eating up shows and movies that are literally aimed at elementary school kids.

Very true. I think a lot of people have a hard time being honest about why they like things.
Like I straight-up just love late-80s - 90s Marvel. The Clone Saga, X-Force, Onslaught, all that shit. I am fully aware that its not "good" storytelling, but it was born of the time I grew up in, it unashamedly strives to be as "cool" and superficially appealing as possible, and I know the characters.

There's something to be said for considering all popular culture objects important cultural artifacts for what they say about the context in which they were produced, but you have to be comfortable admitting that you like things for shallow personal reasons like nostalgia or because they're thrilling or because you had a good date the night you first experienced them.

Speaking of boards, I think /m/ should be dissolved. Getting the fans of actual good anime back on /a/ would probably cut down on the waifu-fagging a lot and Toku would actually do fine on /tv/ or /a/ or something. Some of the least shit discussions on /tv/ are actually the rare toku threads.

I keep trying to watch the CW and Netflix shows and I kind of have to agree. I think most of this stuff just doesn't translate well to live action. Like you read the story on the page and it feels perfectly fine, but then you see it on screen and its this campy, cheesy mess.
I read the Silver Age Supergirl omni recently and it was actually less corny than the CW series.

My problem with Red Son is that it missed the obvious opportunity to end with the baby Kal sent from the future Earth!Krypton landing in Kansas, averting the events of the series and setting up the Superman story we all know today. Having it be a stable time loop just made the time travel feel dull and unnecessary.

Its like when people complain about cartoons always reusing the same few basic plots over and over again.
Like yeah, their target audience is children who haven't been exposed to these basic, common narratives. If you want subversion of common storytelling tropes, watch television that's actually intended to entertain adults.

Ok fuck it.
Fuck all of you. Seriously. There is potential in each and everyone of you in this fucking place and you fucking waste it.

The live action boost would have been great to bring some life into the comics and everyone fucking wasted it. /co/ meanwhile got overwhelmed by live action fags that don't care about comics and want to talk about how cute Wanda is or how finished DC is.

Steven Universe is tiring the audience with their
shit schedule but sug has to literally be erased. Even the normal talking threads are just an excuse to shit on the show because it doesn't fit the standards of a grown ass man.
>Who cares I just watch it for X
Fucking stab yourself in eyes then so the last thing you'll see will be your precious character.

The faggots who claim that it's ok to wanting to fuck a child character just because it's not real should be istant-ban or at least ignored. Fucking purge that thread already.

I keep giving chances to Gweenpool just because I like the art. If the story doesn't kick I'm dropping it.

/co/ is so addicted to the cape cock that it doesn't bother reading anything else and that why nobody here will get a work in the sector.

Princess Marco fags need to be shot and everyone who plays their game. Fucking trap faggots.

Can't stand 99% of cape comics because they have the blandest art imaginable, they're boring, they cross over too much, they're plot-driven rather than character-driven. Some that I've read and enjoyed are Samnee/Waid's Daredevil, Smith/Moore's All New Ghost Rider, and Ellis/Shalvey's Moon Knight.

Mainstream comics should hire character designers. Not all artists can design characters well.

Western cartoons have a long way to go in terms of catching up to the east, and while I get some people are frustrated with how slow progress has been, I think we're in the middle of a big boom of creativity right now, especially with so much young talent stepping into the spotlight lately.

SU is far from perfect but Rebecca Sugar's storytelling is really something unique and I appreciate her genuinity in everything she does. I know she's going to inspire a lot of young people to do great stuff someday.

People on /co/ need to step back and look at the big picture when they critique cartoons instead of declaring a cartoon irredeemable shit based on small flaws.

I like Kris Anka's designs well enough and I think his more masculine females are good to have around, in order to balance things out. Not every chick should look like a boring barbie doll with huge tits. I'd like to see women drawn in more different ways. but certainly not how Erica Henderson draws them

i think the best batman is the bats from Batman: The Brave and the Bold

it has the grey and blue outfit,, it has a lot of interaction with other dc heroes even the most obscure ones, and it also has flashback to his earlier years with the black outfit

I feel like anyone who believes this started v3 with Emerald Twilight, because not only was Jones' run actually really entertaining, but Emerald Twilight is an absurd character change is you read the lead up, and only makes much sense with Parallax possessing Hal.

That said, Hal Spectre was the most interesting thing to happen to the character and should have lasted much longer, or even possibly become the status quo.

/pol/ doesn't invade this board. whenever anyone mentions anything that sounds conservative, the /co/mblr brigade - brought here by Steven Universe and shielded by the board's moderation - explodes.
Rebecca Sugar can have as many Sapphic themes as she likes, but it's all emotional-based writing and that's why so many people don't like the show.
Alex Hirsch isn't a bad guy, he just didn't let the people under him handle important aspects of Gravity Falls and burned himself out in the process of obsessing over the show. He burned himself out and just wanted out. That's why GF ended so poorly.
I like the Nutshack threads. The show was terrible but it reminds me of the old days when we would just screw around every now and again - like the "I gotta fart superbad" threads, or weekly cheesecake threads on Saturday.
/aco/ is a miserable failure because it doesn't allow shota or loli content.
I completely agree with >>86985096. /co/ never wants to talk about Venture Brothers, The Critic, Home Movies, or any other show like that. Instead they sperg out and make waifu threads for shit like The Loud House and Steven Universe.
That being said, I actually don't mind waifu threads.
The moderation for /co/ is absolutely terrible and their rule against general threads is just a way for them to delete anything they don't like.
I stopped coming to /co/ regularly in 2011 because boards like /b/ and /pol/ let you fuck around. The end of cheesecake and meme threads on /co/ destroyed board culture.
Alan Moore is 100% right that comics should explore sexuality, even at the risk of being called pornographic.
I liked Lost Girls for the story, not the sex.

I agree, it's a start. Ironically it's probrably thanks to the horde of manchildern and tumblrinas who wants their cartoons to be taken seriously.
> Rebecca Sugar's storytelling is really something unique and I appreciate her genuinity in everything she does
The only problem is with the townie episodes. Not for the filler meme, but because at the beginning of the series we knew less than nothing about the world so the towns episodes were a way to introduce us to the world. The fact is that since they keep using the same characters it becomes boring in the long run. Also, placing them between the research of a giant six-armed abomination wandering in the sea kinda makes you question their priorities.

That's my problem with Marvel. They went from "100% girls are sexy" to "100% girls are non-sexy and masculine". I'd enjoy if both types could coexist, and lots of other types too. But alas, "muh politics" don't work that way.

In general,

But that's not what happens. They de-sexify pretty much all female heroines, even those that were always sex symbols. I'm okay with variety, I'm not okay with how we aren't allowed to have sex symbol ladies anymore

I disagree. So many Western cartoons depict underage cartoon characters and porn of them is going to happen. They require some sort of containment and /b/ isn't the correct answer.
>People here don't understand shitposting and they think it's /pol/
Yeah, it kind of seems that way. Anything post that's done for humor is immediately derided because there are lots of new users who aren't accustomed to 4chan yet. That's my take on it, anyway.
>Heck they don't even want to read a comic that isn't american.
I love my Western comics and graphic novels, but /co/ doesn't seem to want to talk about any Western comics other than cape comics - which I hate. It's unfortunate.
>you kinda need to be a big name to pull something like that, but I agree.
I think too many artists these days - in comics, movies, literature, video games, you name it - worry too much about what critics will think of their content. If what you've made is objective garbage, like fanfiction tier writing, then that's bad and you should feel bad. Other than that, people should do what they want to express.

>I'm okay with variety, I'm not okay with how we aren't allowed to have sex symbol ladies anymore
I get that it seems like this because of the frequency of backlash against sexualized designs, but we still have a ton of sexy ladies. The less sexy ones just stand out more because it's a pretty new thing. I mean, the trend only started a handful of years ago, didn't it? That's compared to decades of nothing but sexy ladies. That's why I don't mind the less sexy ones lately. The ratio is still uneven.

>>87002091
Don't make assumptions. You're going to start looking like those people who make up situations to be offended in and make a strawman comic about it.
>>
>>87002171
>The ratio is still uneven.
How the fuck is the ratio still uneven? What sex symbol ladies are left? They even turned Vampirella into a modestly dressed Buffy clone. Who are the "ton of sexy ladies" you're talking about? Most female superheroes nowadays are drawn with either average or masculine bodies, and wear full-covering suits and casual wear. What kind of parallel world are you living in?
>>
>>87002171
>we still have a ton of sexy ladies. The less sexy ones just stand out more because it's a pretty new thing.
I WISH it were that way. I WISH they could let modest-looking women and sexy-looking women coexist. But that's not how it is.

>>87002223
The ratio is still uneven because, like I said, we're comparing a handful of years of development (we can say the "progressive" trend exploded about ~5 years ago, roughly?) to actual decades of comic history. So we're comparing ~5 years of less sexy women to 40+ years of sexy women.

Sexy is subjective sometimes but when I'm talking about sexy I mean the intent of the creators, which you can see in the way they're dressed or drawn, you know what I mean. I can't name all of them obviously but here are some modern ones who have not been de-sexified (correct me if I'm wrong on any of these btw, I don't keep up with all the reboots and #1s lately):
>Starfire
>Powergirl
>Emma Frost
>Harley Quinn
>Elektra
>Zatanna
>Scarlet Witch
>Red Sonja
>Psylocke
>Black Cat
>Black Canary
>Catwoman
>Storm

>Wonder Woman

>So we're comparing ~5 years of less sexy women to 40+ years of sexy women.
That's bullshit reasoning. So what, just because 30 years ago there were comics with sexy women, now we have to endure 40 years of comics without sexy women whatsoever? I'm talking about current comics when I say I want to see both modest and sexy women in them, not something by John Byrne.

Some of the heroines you mentioned (e.g. Power Girl) are currently sexy, despite constant attempts to desexify them, others (Scarlet Witch) were successfully desexified, and some (Namora) just appear too rarely. The remaining sexy heroines are a very rare sight nowadays.

now it turns out you want some sort of reparations for what happened back in the 80s? wtf?

how do 80s sexy designs even affect you in 2016? 80s sexy designs don't exist in current comics, they're only in reprints, 99% current comic readers don't have to deal with them

>So many Western cartoons depict underage cartoon characters and porn of them is going to happen.
This is true. But most of the people are not into loli and shit like that and they are not attracted to a character because she's 14, but for their personality. Besides, they always say they are 14 but in most cases behave like 17 if not even more mature individual. They set the bar age there in order to make the corporate suit happy for their demographics. Besides, most of the animation styles leave freedom for interpreting the age of a character if it's not supposed to be a child or an adult. Then there is also the all "they grew up with me like childhood friends" thing.
Also Fuck you.
