Is it though?

I wanted to think so, but with the way Waid is these days I wouldn't be surprised if this 100% supposed to be taken seriously.

Waid was arguing with a fan on twitter about his Viv characterization, so he decided to bring Tom King into the conversation and King said he couldn't be happier with what Waid had done with the character.
>>
>>88431035
As a Native American, this whole redskins debate just annoys the shit out of me.
Who the fuck cares?
>>
>>88431246
According to polls, 10% of Native Americans. Also guilty white liberals.
>>
>>88431147

i feel like I heard a story that King actually offered Viv to Waid for the team.
>>
It's fine, in the issue that came out last week she tried to makeout with Ms. Marvel.
>>
>>88431332
>10% of Native Americans
That is actually kind of low, considering how much this was pushed as the worst thing happening in America.
>>
>>88431353
Waid asked permission and King said to go for it since he believes it's silly to create a new character in a shared universe filled with characters created by other writers and then forbidding anyone else from ever writing that character (a Bendis if you will).
>>
>>88431246
Vision, because he has red skin.

Nah bruh, we Natives got to bang some Mongolians our closest living relative. Would be like Destroy All Humans! except we get some ancient part Native DNA.
>>
Anyone else finds the backlash against Waid's take on Viv ironic, after how King's take on Victor Mancha pissed off many of his fans?
>>
>>88430464
This and the bullshit "Kissing boys I don't feel a response, maybe I should try girls."

Waid just doesn't know how to write the fucking character.
>>
>>88431147
That's just a diplomatic response. King, unlike Waid, is a professional in and out of the job.
>>
>>88435443
>Waid just doesn't know how to write the fucking character.
That sentence can be applied to everyone on Champions. He thinks they're all his mouthpieces.
>>
>>88431434
Well he must not be familiar at how shit Waid has become.

He soon fucking will be.
>>
I'm always confused when somebody on here says a writer is ruining a character. Like, you know it's not a real person, right? It's a comic book character, and that means it will most likely be written by other people in the future. There is no concrete characterization for comic book characters, and if you don't like the current version, don't read this book.
>>
>>88430394

I have spent hours wondering what the fuck happened to Mark Waid. I cannot fathom how completely and utterly dumbfounded that the dude who wrote the ultimate "Shit was better back in the day" comic (Kingdom Come) decided that he was now some proponent of youth and some crazy, rural American-hating nutjob.

>he used to be a dude who's name made me buy comics
>now he's a name I actively avoid

Damn shame too.He was on fucking point during the Brand New Day era of Spider-Man. Then again, Joe Kelly is the only one from the Spidey Brain Trust who didn't go off the deep end. Guess fags make for saner comic writers, versus ones who just wish they were.
>>
>>88435486
That's pretty short sighted though. One writer's run does influence future writers' takes, in some way.
>>
>>88435486

It depends on how much clout that writer has and what sort of changes the writer implements. Like, no writer is gonna say something like "Lol no. Jean Grey used her powers to make Iceman gay," for instance. That's a change that's gonna stick.

But some writers actively seek to change a character in a way that *they* want (Superboy's human genetic donor being changed to Lex Luthor) while ignoring what was previously established.

You bet your sweet ass that the next time Hellcat shows up in a non-Leth book that she's gonna be Hellcat and not whatever weird thing she is now.
>>
>>88435465
My thought is "hey I'll read up and make sure I can carry some semblance of tone from the original creation."

Everything adds but they've got to have some core traits.

But there are times when that has to amended and looked over. Like anyone writing a Bendis OC.
>>
>>88435509
Maybe, but I doubt a few throw away lines will define the character going forward. Plus, this isn't as much a problem of bad characterization here as it is bad writing.
>>
>>88435486
>There is no concrete characterization for comic book characters, and if you don't like the current version, don't read this book.
Companies that care about their properties actually god damn pay attention to what happens to them to maintain consistent characterization.

There's a reason James Bond has been a womanizing British sociopath for his entire span of existence.

There's a reason it's a big god damn deal who will write the next book/movie after properties are handed off.

There's a reason Disney nuked the everloving shit out of the Star Wars expanded universe.

That this happens in comics does not mean it should be looked at as acceptable.

Fucking bullshit was turning into damn Twilight. Nuking was almost too good for it. Though I do miss Ben Skywalker a bit and his Tsundere sith gal.

She wasn't cardboard until Waid started writing her.

I'm amazed that the collective hate /pol/ has for jews will never match the level of hate Canada as a country has for Natives

I'm with you OP.
I hate that Viv went from being a fairly interesting character to *Beep Boop I don't understand humans *Beep Boop

I'm sorry, I'm just not getting your question...

> Why are STORIES allowed?
> Why are writers allowed to write what they want with their characters?
> Why are things that you don't understand allowed to exist?
>>
>>88431442
This. Why are Native Americans the only ones desrcibed as "red skins"? Pretty presumptuous of you ask me.
>>
>>88431813
Is there a reason? I'm interested now. We need to preserve the future of the Native American race.
>>
>>88435773
"Why is this allowed?" is a pretty common thread opener. Don't think he was literally asking why.

Yeah, you folks got kind of fucked over.

Because of geography and human migratory paths, the original Americans were just ramping up into primetime early civilization at the same time that Europeans got good enough at sea travel to head over and swing their advanced-tech dicks around. Unfortunate timing, that. It would have been neat to see what kind of modern civilizations the Aztecs and a few northern nations would have developed into, if left undisturbed.

At least you're not Abos. They went to Australia 40,000 years ago and just stopped trying to do anything.

>>
>>88437193
That's not The Vision, that's The Vision's daughter.
It's a completely separate character, as evidenced by the conversation the two of them had in the very first issue of this comic you are completely ignorant of.
>>
>>88437291
The idea is still the same. She was never a great character.
>>
>>88437303
She has existed for 15 comic issues in total, how much characterization did you expect to be established in that span?
>>
>>88431035
King has PTSD from attaching electrodes to so many Muslim testicles, he doesn't know what he's saying anymore.

>wow a teenage girl version of a character behaves differently on the count of being a teenage girl

>>
>>88437403
OR... maybe she behaves differently because The Vision had his artificial mind patterned on the brainwaves of WonderMan, and she had her artificial mind patterned on a mixture of the brainwaves of The Scarlet Witch and The Vision.
Do you think that might play a bigger part in that distinction? Maybe? You think? Could it be?
