ITT: Every stupid post about "fixing comics"

Good post

>>88784540
Comic books are worthless and the people making them are more worthless, so paying them for their labour just doesn't make sense. To drop costs even further, we should stop printing comics in color and start printing them on newsprint. As you know, American audiences are extremely receptive to things that are black and white, as we can see from the popularity of black and white films even today.

>>88784540
>Comic books should cost no more than a nickel, price of labor be damned.
Hmmmmmmmmm...

>>88784540
Read most of this in Garrison's voice.

>>88784540
>It is especially important that we kill off characters because any stories that aren't written by the original creator are terrible. Bob Kane's Batman stories are still read today, while everything else is cringey, autistic, and other Reddit memes.
basically this
I would love for western comics to do more an eastern comic route of "single universe for a single series"

>>88784821
>First of all, remember that when I say comic books, I mean Marvel and to a lesser extent DC, since those are the only two companies I've ever heard of. And don't forget that the only comics in existence are supethero comics!

>>88784856
Yes and? Those are western comics and those are the ones I am talking about just like OP. I absolutely despise trying to read a run of a popular superhero because they're always in a dumb event that bridges between series or has some clickbait opening page.

Lesser known cape comics tend to be better because it's contained and no one cares about them enough to push them into something.

>>88784911
The OP went over your head. Try reading it again. Or try reading more non-Marvel/DC comics.

>>88784967
I mostly read image.

I don't believe you.

Literally proving OP right.

>>88784911

You're literally the exact kind of person OP was describing.

>>88785023
He means he watches Walking Dead.

>>88785006
Liar

You forgot the big one

Obviously people not willing to buy 1 floppy of one character would be willing to buy 5 of them stapled together as an anthology magazine. Oh and we can keep the costs down on that to because we know magic.

Or the old chestnut of

We should put comics where Magazines are sold because those do AMAZING numbers.

Or the we should sell them at movie theaters because that is what people want to do after spending two hours with a character is spend more money on something completely not related to it

>>88784540
You forgot to mention that comic companies should completely abandon their most popular characters in favor of [insert minutely successful character that I personally like here] because that's what the *real* fans want. Anyone who doesn't share my exact tastes isn't a *real* fan.

I remember when I went to see the TFA premier, there was a huge stand filled with Star Wars comics and shit; everyone completely ignored those and went straight for the Pop! figurines and T-shirts.

It still amazes me that when certain people here say "comics" or "the industry" they actually mean a few sepecific Marvel and DC runs

OP is spot on

>>88786072
Now this guy has some ideas I can get behind!

>>88784540
Batman should use guns and kill the Joker.

>>88786276
I've noticed that all the complaints are almost always Marvel specific (constant events, SJW pandering, etc.)

The nasty truth is that most of the people who fall out of comics were burned by Marvel, and it left a bad impression. Everyone I've ever talked to who hates comics and claims to have once read them always says that they used to read Spider-man and X-men, but quit. I've never met anyone who claims they used to read Batman and got burned, though.

>>88784540
>bait

maybe if you were talking about capes only but the whole medium? you crazy.

>>88784540
You forgot Digital memes.

>>88786635

>>88784540
>I don't read, buy, or know anything about comics but here's how comics should be marketed.

Ok then, so how DO we fix comics?

>>88790548
Only buy creator-owned comics. Vote with your wallet that the industry needs to change.

>>88784540
>PAY ATTENTION TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>Ironic references
>Game of Thrones
>Bob Kane
>Clear references to normie and hipster posting all in once
>Literally starts with "I don't read"

And most than half of /co/ still fails for this kind of bait, this board is more stupid than /ck/ and /vp/ together

Maybe comics and cartoons really rotten your brain

>OP
>not a manchild comic book fanboy who can't take criticism

pick one and only one

>>88790576
Nah, i prefer just pirate the thousands of good stories and books that have been already written

Artist of all eras are all terrible people and this profession have no space in a functional society

>>88790778
The OP isn't trying to trick anyone. It's blatantly obvious as a humorous post. /co/ really is in a sad, sorry state where every time someone makes a joke it's called out as "bait" or a "troll".

>>88790854
You'd be surprised (or not) how retarded a huge portion of /co/ is.
