Because the point is to tell a story, not to provide wank material for lonely nerds. You have unlimited access to porn, so it's not an issue.

>HURR DURR IT'S VISUALLY APPEALING
To you, maybe. To people who aren't completely retarded, it's eye-rolling and distracting. As a visual medium, comics have to convey elements and character emotions through the artwork, which it can't do when the artist is drawing with one hand instead of focusing on what's important to the story.

Thats why the male superheroes are still in skin-tight outfits that are basically just body paint on top of their naked bodies. Because most cape comic readers are gay as fuck and have massive double standards about their white knightiness.

Most female heroes still wear skin tight outfits too, in various states of covering. And most that aren't Valiant's Faith have an attractive body type as well.

Yeah, and that's part of the medium. I don't bitch about Thor being unhealthily ripped because it's a fantasy world where gorgeous people have adventures.

But you see all the "SEXIST! MALE GAZE! PERVERTED! IMMATURE!" from the feminist crowd, and creators actually fucking agree to their demands.

The lack of scantily clad characters doesn't bother me much, it's the fact that veteran heroines who USED to be serious are acting like quirky teens.

>>
>>87166645
People are overreacting but I think there's still a difference in portrayal in some cases. I don't care when both men and women in a comic are given more sexual moments but sometimes it's very obvious that the writer/artist is just playing up his fetish with his waifu, which rarely happens to male characters (except for Hal Jordan).
>>
At this point, only small time grass root comics can afford to have more risque designs. Big companies like Marvel and DC and such can't pull it off as much anymore, being right in the limelight of the public eye during this regressive PC age. Plus all the feminist quick to cry objectivification and shit.

But I've been hearing about some sort of meme pendulum concept that states in a couple years we'll be drowning in cheesecake but I doubt it.
>>

>it's very obvious that the writer/artist is just playing up his fetish with his waifu, which rarely happens to male characters (except for Hal Jordan).
Well yeah, waifuizing and such is annoying. But the point was it isn't gender exclusive, and there's nothing wrong with it.

Like how that one female manga author said she likes drawing buff dudes the most.

Not you, but other people certainly do. And some feminists also complain because it's "degrading towards women and should include more cute <3 lesbians" or w/e.

sex is private matter; these characters are only made to look this way because it sells.
>>
>>87167290
Actually they were made because the original idea for superhero costumes were based on what (at the time) circus performers wore and while modern comics mostly just stick to it out of tradition, "Eye catching"/skimpy costumes for female performers wasn't that uncommon back then
>>
>>87167502
True, but superheroes are not circus performers. They are vigilantes who engage in a wide variety of crimefighting and rescue services. Wearing skimpy outfits that are not conducive to, and possibly even a hindrance, to that just makes the characters look like chucklefucks who don't take what their doing seriously. It's something that takes you out of the story because of how nonsensical it is. And no, nonsense in this case does not refer to the typical wackiness of the genre, since dressing like an idiot is stupid regardless of whether you're fighting sapient gorillas or not.

this is interesting trivia, but those costumes even in that context were just used to "sell" I mean.. yes there may be a history to it, but it's not worth repeating. The reason it was done in the past ends up being the same reason it's used today: to sell things.

Why should we care about what some feminists think? Feminists dont buy comic books, just look at the sales of the modern, more diverse Marvel.
>>
>>87167581

You're talking about fiction where people dress up as cats and bats to fight crime. Crimefighting and rescue services dont require you to wear a cape. All superheroes should look like firefighters if you're to be believed.
>>
>>87167739
generalizing this much about "feminists"

dude no two people are the same, I don't understand where you're coming from when you say "Feminists" this, and "Feminists" that; this creates a vacuum where nobody can make any argument or point because you'll shout the word "feminist" at them, which I suppose automatically makes them wrong. Let's completely ignore the range of ideas and opinions coming from human beings who care about stopping something oppressive and damaging.

Calling someone a Feminist as an insult is the new "Communist" and "Nazi", not need to be specific or considerate, just throw a blanket statement over a virtual group, job done. If your goal is to act like you're smarter or better than someone, then you dont even need to engage anyone at all. You have to empathize to understand people, not just cry when things stop going the way you're used to them going. Empathize.
>>
>>87167827

>Empathize.

Theres nothing to empathize about the fact Marvel is simultaneously catering towards the Tumblr feminists, while having one of the worst sales in its history. You cant help but correlate the two together, especially when you see the exact same thing happen with video games.

Feminists dont buy comic books or games. Especially those from Tumblr. They make a lot of noise but 0,1% of them actually spends money on the products they whine about. Its a financial suicide to make them your target audience, like Marvel has shown.
>>
>>87167581
But what if the superhero WAS a circus performer? Like Dick? Then it would be ok?
>>
>>87167775
>All superheroes should look like firefighters if you're to be believed.
Well, no, because firefighter suits are not at all conducive to combat, nor do they grant very much range of movement. Frankly, it seems odd that nobody in real life has made better fireproof materials that can be cheaply mass-produced. But I digress. See, while I'd like to see superheroes wearing more practical outfits, those are always decried by fanboys who need to get their rocks off, frequently using the derogatory label of "tacticool". And really, I don't get why. More often than not, they're skintight outfits with straps and bits of light armoring. I find it a little hard to believe anyone here at least can't get off to that.
>>
>>87168091

>because firefighter suits are not at all conducive to combat

Oh but they are, they protect you against strikes. Superheroes should dress like the military or special forces if you want realism. As a side-effect everyone wears kevlar and pudgy outfits and looks like soldiers with toned down colors like camouflage, black or white depending on the environ. And they would all be indistinguishable. They have to be, officials hide their rank and dress like common soldiers in the battlefield, otherwise they might get sniped first.

So yeah, we could go the homogenized realism-way, or you know, we could just go balls in crazy and creative way and stop bitching about skintight outfits in stories where people can throw cars at each other and get no scratch from a giant punching them through a wall.

>And they would all be indistinguishable. They

Idiot, the entire point of superheroes is that they are for the most part independent agents. If there's going to be any kind of uniform, it'd be among individual teams, and not even necessarily. The fact that you immediately assume that characters who wear outfits that are actually useful MUST look 100% identical only shows your own lack of creativity.
>>

Well they also aren't on an uphill battle, their stuff sells enough to let them not care if someone is offended. I'm not familiar with the sales figures for comics but they're probably bad enough for the powers that be to try anything to get them up.

>>87168350
Comic book art is shit, and always has been shit. I love the irony of that one anon bitching about how all character would look identical if they stopped wearing the stupid skimpy shit.

>>87168455
>Well they also aren't on an uphill battle, their stuff sells enough to let them not care if someone is offended
It's completely the other way around. Japanese creators are allowed absurdly little creative freedom by their publishers for fears of upsetting their basement dwelling audience.

There are plenty of interviews where they say they want to try different stuff, but no, every chick needs to be a tsundere or a moe, every main character needs to be a blank slate, etc. There are exceptions of course, but on the whole the manga&anime industry is hilariously restrictive and ossified.
>>
>>87166691
>but sometimes it's very obvious that the writer/artist is just playing up his fetish with his waifu,

And yet Claremont's X-men is one of most acclaimed runs in comics because of this.

Empowered is more relatable and endearing than 99% of Big Two female characters, and the main premise of her comic is getting tied up.

Meanwhile, you currently have Marvel trying to push Yaas Queen Carol.
>>
>>87168557
You'd think the light novel/web novel format would allow them more freedom, but all I ever see is more of the same.
>>
>>87166169
Because people who have never bought a comic in their life will get upset and hurt the reputation of the publisher via social media.
>>
>>87168557
I misspoke, they can afford to offend people that aren't their core base because their core base will buy fucking everything no matter the price.

>>87168470

If you want actual realism, then they have to.

But you don't, you just want an excuse to get angry about some stupid costumes in a superhero story. You dont make a case for "female body armor", then to only make the body armor less skimpy but just as retarded in a practical sense.

No I didn't you fucking retard. I said skimpy outfits are impractical. I got no issue with skintight stuff. It's a cape setting, so presumably it would be made of durable material that allows freedom of movement.

>Fucking brightly colored weird looking outfits arent practical.
It doesn't matter what fucking colors you're wearing when fighting giant robots and shit.

>Army getup with camouflage colors and kevlars is practical. So if all of the heroes strive to be practical, they look more or less the same, you retarded piece of shit.

Because the skimpy outfits don't protect you from environmental hazards or temperatures, or in the case of some garments, getting shot or cut. Apparently, I'm the only one who remembers why humans wear clothing in the first place.

I think this is, ironically, because they produce so much of it. If the editor of whomever is in charge, is spinning so many plates, they don't have the time or energy to put too much consideration into what will or won't work. They need to guarantee what they put out will sell, so they just make sure they produce what has already worked before.

I kinda wish all these guys would start independently making webcomics so they could produce more variety. But at this point I get the impression the whole culture has such a set idea of what manga "is", that it'd all be the same anyway.

Because the American Left has convinced companies that having female characters that look cute and sexy makes women and girls feel hyperconscious about themselves not being cute and sexy and that makes them hate the drawings, hate the product, hate the publisher, and hate anyone that is connected to the publisher in the slightest.

Okay, so you're either blind or you don't actually know what that means.

They're clearly in a hole, so there's light coming from above. There's clearly another light source coming from the middle of the giant plant. And that's further compromised from the light in Samus's suit. It's only "inconsistent" in that there's multiple light sources, and I know you're not stupid enough to confuse the two notions, so don't try to bait people as if they don't understand the words you're saying like you're the only one in the world who took Art Analysis 101 in freshman college.

All skintight costumes look like garbage and are designed by lazy artists who just want to draw pseudo-naked people without the effort of including folds in the clothes, outside of the capes, which are the easiest to do that with as a solid rectagular piece of cloth.

Stories that involve enough hand to hand combat that they somehow require the characters wear leotards are for teenagers. It's only somewhat justified for the ones that can fly at speeds where their clothes might come off, but even then, you've suspended your disbelief to that extent already, you'd have to be a raging pedant to complain at that point.

There doesn't necessarily need to be any development. Some characters just have their shit together.

It's obvious what kind of person she is by facial expressions and body language.

Those aren't personality, one's an occupation, one's a circumstance, and the third is a goal.

Her personality is that she's tough, steadfast, and resourceful, because you as a player have to be all those things in order to win the game with her. From some of her monologues in the beginning of Super Metroid you can tell that she's no-nonsense and that she can quickly react to a tragedy.

Since this is an old style of game similar to Legend of Zelda or Punch Out!, you're meant to self-insert a little as the character. So when the baby Metroid saves your life, what you're feeling is what Samus feels. Not necessarily as sentimental as all the fanart where she literally treats it as her baby, but enough that it's a significant part of the story that she saves it and it saves her life back.

Also, she's cool. You know she's cool because she gives you a thumbs up at the end of missions, and she could only pull that off by being genuinely cool.
>>
>>87170513
>Body language and facial expressions
Im someone else. But.
She wears full body armor and a helmet in all the games and takes it off in the credit roll and in one scene in prime 1.

There's no personality. That's not a criticism of the game, I consider it a good thing for an action adventure series.

But there's no character that got ruined. Did other m make it worse? I'd say comparatively having little or no character is preferable in the setting, particularly in comparison to what (I'm told) was given in other m.

I can talk about all the games but other m, and saw very little character development. Again. For its setting, this is necessary.

But honestly I didn't play other m.

No they're not.

You MIGHT argue that they're FLAT personality traits. But that is not at all the same as NO personality traits. Sometimes it is better for a character to have a flat personality, such as in a video game where you being in exclusive control of them is a large part of its make-up (for example, in Super Metroid, because you're meant to emphasize fully with what the character is doing through, by indulging in the atmosphere of the game, as opposed to a game like say something like Tales of Symphonia where your control is very interchangeable between characters and you're really just following them around as you progress through their story).

There's an interesting paradigm where you're supposed to be progressive and enlightened and like stories for reasons other than because of fanservice. But if the series has any fanservice whatsoever, then it's okay to regress it to being only that and it having no merits beyond that.

No, it's not the case. That's just critics being the truly shallow ones. If the message is to look past TnA to see the characters underneath, who's REALLY doing that? Because it's not the people focusing on them in the negative.

I like Dragon's Crown. Not because of Sorceress boobs, but because its a spiritual successor to Shadows over Mystara, one of my favorite beat em up games and is generally fun to play.
I recently started watching Keijo. Not because of the butts, but rather for the same reasons I liked Hajime no Ippo, Eyeshield 21, Air Gear, and even Yu-Gi-Oh; I like sports anime where the game gets made over the top with special effects.
I like the the Palmiotti Power Girl run. If I was only in it for the tits I wouldn't have dropped the book once Winnick took over and the story got so much darker and less adventurous.

At the end of the day a shockingly large amount of the people that complain about this shit don't actually care about character depth or quality of product. Which is why you end up with Captain Marvel. Doesn't matter that Carol's book is shit or that she's a garbage person in general, they took care of the fan service and she's not "problematic" anymore. Mission complete, right? We need a Black Widow movie! Sure, there's no powers, and no villian, or even the basic concept for what kind of story they'd tell, or even a particularly interesting design aesthetic to sell toys, but representation though!

I take it back. It's not a double standard. It's just hypocrisy.

Actually... skintight suits are scientifically proven to be the most practical for superheroics.
Army getup is extremely impractical because modern armies aren't setup for constant hand to hand combat and acrobatics. You wear that or "civilian garb" while doing the stuff daredevil does and you're begging to injure/sprain yourself.

MGS isn't best example but I get you, I worked my ass off to get Quite's good costume.
>>
>>87172699
She starts with the good costume.
>>
>>87172609
Let me rephrase. Think of Metal Gear without the constant ass shots. ... Or maybe with. If you're not gonna stop being 12, at least give everyone something to look at. Still annoying as fuck, but at least it's fair.
>>
>>87172742
So like...The Boss, then? That's practical?
Or Raiden, who literally only exists because Konami held a focus group of young women and said "How can we make this guy hot for you"?
>>
>>87172735
Nothing against Naked Quiet, I just like her matching with the rest of Diamond Dogs.
>>
>>87172848
I guess!

>>87172802
>That's practical?
In a superhero story? It's enough.

Seriously, I ain't asking for much here.
>>
>>87172313

>Army getup is extremely impractical because modern armies aren't setup for constant hand to hand combat and acrobatics.

Army getup however, is set up for you to be able to do significant physical exercise under the strain of your gear while being protected from shrapnel. Acrobatics are perfectly possible once you just lose the top gear and you would know this if you had ever gone to army.

If its all about the acrobatics and hand to hand combat, then all superheroes should dress like real life pro-fighters, in very simple pants and bras.

But that still goes beyond the point. If you want something to look cool beyond being practical, then you might as well give characters a bikini because at that point its ridiculous already. Tacticool is just as ridiculous as the skimpy clothes. Characters don't look more practical in them whatsoever.

So either stop using the word practical altogether or stop fucking lying.
>>
>>87172901
But metal gear sneaking suits are just superhero costumes with pouch vests over them.
>>
>>87172901
So why is the 100% human but admittedly badass Boss's cleavage down to her crotch practical, but an already invulernable Power Girl having a comparatively smaller window impractical?

Or hell, let's compare baseline human with baseline human. Boss having her tits out to show off her scars is practical, Huntress having her midriff exposed for the exact same reason is not?
>>
>>87170105
Same desu
>>
>>87173152
>So why is the 100% human but admittedly badass Boss's cleavage down to her crotch practical
She only did that to be dramatic. Also, Power Girl's explanation for that is just about as fucktarded as most things in Metal Gear.

>>87173134
Yes, and?
>>
>>87166169
Because women are vindictive and jealous by nature so they hate it when someone(even fictional) looks better than them.
>>
>>87173260

>She only did that to be dramatic.

And superheroines do the same to be dramatic or look good in a scene. Your point is starting to go in circles.
>>
>>87170946
that's a funny dancing goblin
>>
>>87173367
>And superheroines do the same to be dramatic or look good in a scene.
Yeah, probably should've mentioned that it was fucking dumb too. I really like The Boss, but I hate acknowledging that she's a Metal Gear character, and thus does really stupid shit all the time like the rest.

Seriously, why didn't she just zip back up after showing John her scar? Was she just in full on "Fuck it." mode at that point?
>>
>>87173260
It's starting to sound like what you really want is just more ammo belts, because that's the only functional difference.

please stop wasting your time on that retard. He knows nothing about politics and has no desire to improve his knowledge.
And yes, I'm talking about the guy who can't understand that you can say that some countries share European values while not being situated in Europe. You're probably American, aren't you?
>>
Because women have already made it known that it is unacceptable for heroines to have unrealistic bodies that shame women for not having.
>>
>>87173576
That's not ALL I want. As I've said, I want superheroes to stop dressing like strippers so they look like they're taking this shit seriously.

But yes, you can bring up the 90s all you want, I like pouches. Never understood why people got so worked up over them. Capes really should be carrying around some gear. At least some cash and band-aids, damn.

Supes keeps his wallet in a pocket on his cape.

What else could he possibly need?

I want the opposite to be honest, I'm tired of everything needing to be serious or realistic in stories about people flying around punching robots.
>>
>>87173707
I personally want all of those olympic athletes to stop dressing like strippers so that we can take them seriously instead of parading around like sluts.
>>
>>87173955
They don't count because they're a gaping hole in my argument.
>>
>>87173947
The characters' regard for their job and the tone of the work are two separate things.

>>87173955
>>87173988
Olympians aren't going around in dangerous life or death scenarios fighting powerful enemies. It's not remotely the same thing.

And once the fuck again with that black and white thought process. You people are going to absurd lengths to justify your wank material.

>>87173134
Having pockets is a practical design

Metal Gear excels at that.

The weirdest part about this book is how everyone pretends she's "respectable" now, even though she acts like the most stereotypical blond bimbo airhead, and spends most issues in revealing outfits or various states of undress.
>>
>>87166169
Because Tumblr.
>>
>>87174174
Considering that most of the heroes are invulnerable or damage resistant, sprains and other sports related injuries are the biggest danger to their ability to perform. That still doesn't excuse them traipsing around like whores.
I thought you were my brother in arms against the rampant debauchery plaguing the olympics and comics that is poisoning the minds of young children everywhere but it appears that you are nothing more than a godless sodomite! The first thing on your mind is performing perversions upon ourselves. Report to the nearest pastor in proper altarboy attire to cleanse the filth from your soul!

Honestly capeshit is a horrible genre and I'm happy to watch it burn to the ground. There are much better comics out there

Superheroes can be sexy.
The argument here is that why aren't all of them at the same time like it was during the 90's where heroines going in bra and panties.

It's ok for that to exist if there's some room for it to make sense: Emma Frost, Starfire, Poison Ivy, Power Girl.
But you have to also keep in mind that some people want to see their idols as more than sex objects.
I miss Carol Danver being drawn by Frank Cho, but it never made any goddamn sense that a US Colonel wore any of that.

The other issue is the disparancy between the number of heros that demonstrate that sexual fantasy.
You got Herc whose half naked almost all of the time. The whose left?
Cosmic boy threw away his corset ages ago.
Batman only takes off his shirt to get tortured (and please let's not popularize that)
When has Starfox done anything recently?
Unless you're into space bikers, there's Drax.

The last time male heroes' physical attraction was used to sell a book was in Secret Six: Catman running around naked all of the time, every vuy was in their undies in a splash page at least once. Jesus, Bane out of all fucking people had female fans because he was sensitive and adopted a daughter. Bane. Think on that for a second.

So the matter of it is that Supers can and should be sexy. Just not all the time. And not just one gender should be either.

The problem is they're asking for those to change too.
>If it gives men any sort of access to sexual or aesthetic release, it's wrong and it has to stop existing, period.
That's the narrative.
>>
>>87166169
because SJW that don't even comics want to ruin everything.
>>
>>87166358
>>87166280
Comics should have fanservice as a way to make it more visually and sexually appealing. If you get distracted that much by the story then your a retard who needs to kill themselves.

It's like saying Link from OoT had personality.

It's also why WW Link is best Link.
>>
>>87166169
Because female superheroes are now mostly drawn by men who respond to negative comments by women who don't buy comics.

Anytime you have female characters drawn by female artists they tend to be cute or sexy.
>>
>>87166169
Atom Eve is cute, she's a cunt, but cute nonetheless .
