Do you think female Marvel superheros will ever be allowed to be sexy again? Or are we in for a dark age?
>>
Editorial says Carol can never be depicted in her old Ms. Marvel leotard, even in flashbacks when she was Ms. Marvel and would be wearing it, so no. Never again.
>>
>>87767775
Seriously?
>>
Sure. The 'diversity' or 'sjw' or whatever it's called these days, push has clearly fallen flat and the return of the X-Men shows us someone's watching the sales figures.

Not today, but after some more books flop we'll get sexy back.
>>
Look dudes, just because they're not showing skin doesn't mean they're not still hot.

I have issues with Marvel's treatment of their female characters, but being unable to fap to them isn't one.

Yeah, this month's Jessica Jones features a flashback with all the Avengers in their classic costumes and then Carol in her Captain Marvel suit.
>>

And this is part of why I'm never paying for anything from Marvel ever again.

No, that was Jessica's imagination, not a flashback. She prefers her Captain Marvel costume.

Nope not at all. Marvel is fully engulfed by SJWs at the moment.

At least DC is doing comics right

Now that Trump is President-elect and the forces of SJW and repression have been soundly defeated, there might be hope.

I've certainly noticed more cheesecake and beefcake in the last few months then we've had in the last few years combined.

Good job. That and nuHarley were the best examples of how to make a character look worse by making them "sexier".
>>
>>87768965

why do the retards put sexy where it's not needed and take it away where it is.

Bobbi's classic costume is terrible, though.

Not a flashback, since we got JMS-era Thor.

It'll blow over when the mythical superhero movie bubble burst happens and the people who care about thought policing moves on to the new popular thing. Might take a while, though.

It's great. Fuck you.

>>87767768
I think it'd be nice if we redefined what counts as "sexy" in comics. I mean, for instance, that I don't find costumes that show an idiotic amount of skin or no reason on a character that doesn't need it. Sue Storm's infamous bikini springs to mind.

Similarly, I don't find scantily-dressed women relating their editorially-mandated rape backstory to a guy and then immediately sleeping with him like it really turned her on sexy. There's about a dozen examples of that one.

I'd like to see female characters written with real personality outside of "feminist agenda", "humorless hardass", "kawaii cartoon" or "rape survivor" or some combination thereof. I think the sexiest characters carry their sexiness as a real part of their character, and seeing them doing sexy things usually feels like a culmination of that. It's nice to earn the cheesecake sometimes.

This is how it should work.
>>

>Carol with tits and actually looking good
Nice
>>
>>87769905
The first few issues of A-Force felt like they needed a more cheesecakey artist.

The women just looked flat. Not in that way.
>>
>>87767775
This is bullshit. The first couple of issues had Kamala as leotard Carol.
>>
>>87769977
It's a shame it's getting canceled now that it just got a cheesecake artist
>>
>>87767768

No.
Marketing stopped pandering to teenage boys and started pandering to college kids instead. Expect a lot more diverse superheros before they realize this direction isn't profitable and they take a new ridiculous direction.

>>87768965
New Waller is dumb.
She's not some 'action hero' or whatever.

>Marketing stopped pandering to teenage boys and started pandering to college kids instead.

Comics were marketed at males in their 20s-40s, now they're aimed at the lower end of that scale and "socially conscious". Which is also why their push is failing, they switched focus from a demographic who have too much money to spend and nobody to spend it on to trying for an audience which already spends its meager income (if they even have any) on shitloads of other things.
>>
>>87770110
This one doesn't.

>obvious censorship covering most of the costume

>>87769985

Yeah, with the sash being ridiculously big and covering pretty much all the skin between the tops of her boots and the leotard.

Face it. Marvel is ashamed of Ms. Marvel's costume.
>>
>>87770912

I would be ashamed too for publishing such a piece of spank fodder for so long

there is nothing sexy about a skintight catsuit.

NOTHING

this makes me so ANGRY AT COMIC BOOKS!

Depends on how much cleavage it's showing. I'll settle for a cameltoe or molded to ass cheeks.

>Strong, independent womyn who don't feel the need to flaunt their bodies or conform to patriarchal standards of beauty ARE sexy, you shitlord. Unless you find them sexy then you're a degenerate and even bigger shitlord for fetishizing them.

I can never wrap my head around that contradiction.
>>
>>87767768
>there are people who consider this costume sexy and not just tacky

People should need a basic understanding of fashion to be allowed to design costumes.
>>
>>87777683

in comics it's because they aren't real and it's a bunch of nerds drawing these poses

>>87767795
Does the writer for this have a last name that begins with B and ends with endis?
>>
>>87767768
No. We live in an age of nerd girl reverse sexism. Women in comics must be completely desexualized, degendered, and conform to ham fisted girl power archetypes, while male characters exist to be cutesy gay ship bait. It's fucking ludicrous, and I say this as a liberal. I've dropped marvel comics cause of this. Regressive liberalism is irrational, unreasonable, and contradicts American values, bilaterally.

>>
>>87778684
I agree with you, but you shouldn't call it "reverse sexism". For two reasons. It sounds retarded and it glosses over the fact that sexism can happen to anyone, not just women.
