Definitely Champions. It's cool to see all my new favorites like Kamala and Cho together, and I really like the unique angle they're taking to crime fighting.

So this thread tells me I've should read the Flinstones....

>>87537675
Do you actually care about the Flintstones? I doubt it. Plus it's already cancelled.

Meanwhile Champions is two issues in and going strong, and it's tied to characters you probably already love.

The vanilla Avengers with Del Mundo was pretty great too honestly. Maybe they'll let Waid actually tell his stories without interruptions for a little bit. At least until he's derailed by the next event.

Also Flintstones had better make it to at least 12 issues. More people need to read it.

>>87537712
Dude, I dislike the Flintstones meme too, but at least it has some redeeming qualities. Champions is 100% shit.

Say that I also like Moe-Moe mudslimes and talking fleshlights, I'm still going to need more incentive to read it. Especially when I only care about two people on a team book. But I know the guy I replied to was baiting but meh.

Does Champions sell so bad that Mark has to come here and advertise his book?

>>87538120
It's one of the best selling books of the last few months.

Flintstones
Sixpack
Power Man and Iron Fist started out okay but got boggled down by crossover tie-ins.

I also like Promethee, though I understand why people think it is being dragged out for too long. But that's partially why I like it.

it didn't go balls to the wall like scooby doo apocalypse, and more people are actually familiar with the source material unlike the franchises involved in Future Quest, which makes lots of the audience feel weird because they are familiar with coast to coast but not actual space ghost etc, so of the new hana barbera comics it actually hits that sweet spot of hooking your interest via nostalgia then subverting your expectations with its more cutting social criticisms and darker subject matter while still being funny

>>87538228
The Flintstones cartoon was originally just a Honeymooners parody. This new comic is more of a satire of modern life, but never preaches social politics to your face like Marvel tends to do.

>>87538644
on one hand, you're wrong, on the other hand I agree with the most of the politics they are preaching so I'm not going to post an example

>>87538624
>It's surface level satire.

And? I didn't say it was obscure or complex. I said it was clever. Clever can be up front and in your face about it.

I like Future Quest more than Flintstones. I love Champions because the threads shitting on it are funny.

>>87538644
>This new comic is more of a satire of modern life

What if I told you that the Flintstones was also a satire of modern life? It was made in the sixties and was making fun of sixties bullshit.

Bro. Come on. You don't have to be 2,000 years old to point something out about the Romans either.

>>87538444
Fine.

The Flintstones is a decent book. It's by no means bad. But it is NOT a fucking masterpiece.

There's only so much LOL NIHILISM you can do before it starts to get old. Fred had his characterization changed so damn much, he's pretty much a different character that seems to launch into esoteric speeches at a moment's notice. It has its moments, for sure, but it gets praise that would make you think it's gonna go down in history as a classic that'll be studied for centuries.

>>87538856
What characterization did Fred have that could be radically changed?

>>87538705
>What if I told you that the Flintstones was also a satire of modern life?
Not in the same way. Old Flintstones never satired gay marriage.

>>87538856

>>87537712
>tied to characters you probably already love
And shits on what anyone likes about them.
Kamala's a soapbox
Sam Suffers
Cho's an asshole
Tykelops is Kid Hitler
Viv is nothing like she was at any point in Vision
Spider-Nog... he's there I guess.

>>87537712
>Meanwhile Champions is two issues in
hang on I thought Champions #1 was the camp issue where Tyke shows up and Chulk gets his mack on with Viv, which only came out last week

>>87538665
>you're wrong
He's not really. This is a series that is political satire by design, had an entire issue about the election, and was infinitely more subtle and restrained than Nick Spencer's output.

>>87538910
Probably because gay marriage was a non-issue in the 60s, as evidence by the fact that people didn't start taking the "gays should be able to get married" rhetoric as anything but a big fat joke until the late 90s.

>>87538537
Have you actually read it or are you just assuming it's bad because of the name/premise? Because the execution is top tier.

>>87539002
No, that was #2. How did you miss all the #FINALLYWOKE shitposting.

>>87538910
>Old Flintstones never satired gay marriage.

No shit. It was a 60s satire and covered shit 60s tv shows would. It was a satire of what modern people *at the time* were talking about. Mostly. It was a 60s show satire of 60s life. The world's a different place now holmes.

>>87538526
yes, marvel changes the date of carnage constantly, first the book came out in the last week of the month, then it was changed to the week previous to that and we are back to the last week of the month

>>87539154
I must have thought that was an ANADvengers issue made to lead into Champions

>>87538910
Yes. Because they were the Modern Stone Age Family.

And Modern in the 60's and Modern now are two different things.

>>87537712
Let see
>Kamala is interesting but i dont like her in teams
>Sam i never go got into his book
>Miles is bland as fuck and Bendis keeps me from reading his book
>Cho is ok but he is awful in this book
>Tyke, I am a x-fag but I hate the time displaced O5

that leaves with Viv which is fine for me, so yeah I am not interested in this book.

>>87539204

I think these guys think that the Flintstones were always old and retro as fuck. Like some dudes were watching this shit on tv 50 years ago and thinking "lol, where are the cell phones?"

"What does 'lol' mean?"

>>87537712
>Characters you probably already love
Oh sure sure, I enjoy characters like Kamala, Chulk, Sam, and Viv. The problem is I'm not getting them, I'm getting their Waid equivalent

Kamala isn't an idealistic yet naive kid struggling to juggle doing the right thing with the world around her, she's an ideological soapbox for a middle aged man to talk about teenager issues he barely understands.
Chulk isn't a brash, intelligent maverick using his newfound power to brute-force solutions, he's Chad Thundercock, Smasher of Robo-pussy
Viv isn't a robotic girl from a world apart, desperate to fit in with a society that rejects her and reeling from the loss of people who care about her, she's a triggered tumblr user.

Waid takes these fascinating characters and garbage compacts them to the most lazily written archetypes for forced drama and petty conflict. You want to make a book about the struggles of idealistic teenagers in a cynical world, fine, but you have to work harder than this. The frustrating thing is that there's nothing about the Champions idea that prevents it from working, it's all the fault of Waid's piss poor execution.

>>87539201
Nope, the last issue of ANAD Avengers was an entire issue devoted to a flashback story about Thor, Cap, Tony, Wasp, and GM fighting Dr. Doom that had nothing to do with the ANAD Avengers other than the framing device of Heimdall telling Jane the story. It was pretty good.

>>87539246
Well, there's no accounting for tastes, I guess. Hastings/Gurihiru is a dream team for me.

I don't think anything Marvel has ever done has made me so upset before. And it's a long, long list of horrible stunts they've pulled. Here's a horror comic that plays its macabre elements straight and actually succeeds at being genuinely unnerving and creepy. And it's doing good, it's selling well, we played along and voted with those dollars and they axe it anyway. Fuck. Fucking shit.

but since this is the first issue they're probably more concerned with setting up the main conflict of the story .

Honestly kids like this need to be genocided.

>>87542436
I'm well aware of the intent behind that particular comment of his, but Spencer is still very adamant in his stance that DC is quashing all the "good" Marvel does. He basically sees it as a zero sum game.

>>87542436
>nothing out of the ordinary.
Same with marvel, except they don't have YA, Vertigo or Hanna Barbera.

>>87542539

well yea, but he also said all the "good" Marvel is doing stems from Fraction/Aja's Hawkeye being popular and letting the big2 get more creative with what they'll allow.

Even though Spencer's first big book was fucking THUNDER AGENTS at DC, like anyone thought that would be a sales hit.

That entire rant he did seemed to 1) forget that DC/Marvel are businesses and that they need to do what will make them money, not be creatively fulfilling, and 2) blamed readers for everything wrong with the comics industry.

>>87542676
To be fair, readers are to blame for SOME of what's wrong with the comics industry.

>>87541314
It was. It had a planned conclusion and its reaching that conclusion on its own terms rather than having to rush the ending because of impending cancellations. That's kind of the problem with stealth minis.

I'm not liking the characters of that other world either. It's not even the "fun" type of jerk like Spiderman or New Super-Man either.

Why was Cryll's Big Surprise so much better than Shade the Changing Girl? This is insane. And people say that this is the best current comic? I gotta read some Superman to counter this.

Now this is making me wonder if Shade the Changing Man was good. Anyone got a recommendation?
