You can't, it's rotten to the core, you gotta pull the sjw out of it FROM ITS ROOTS. They made the mother of all omelets for the past 5 years or so, and they have been fretting all of the eggs.
They must give the boot to the incompetent un-males, the dumb-ass libtards and the terrible writters. We had enough of this shit comics that get sell terribly and get cancelled, we need actual writters again. Fuck diversity, fuck feminism, fuck White hate, fuck minority acceptance, FUCK ALL OF IT. This is about super héroes, we have to go back, we need to make this piece of shit Company great again.

SERIOUSLY, EVERY FUCKING ISSUE I HAVE READ SO FAR IN 2017 HAS HAD SOME KIND OF PLOTLINE ABOUT FEMINISM AND DIVERSITY AND RACISM WHY CANT IT BE LIKE IT USED TO BE WHY MUST THEY APPEAL TO PEOPLE THAT DON'T EVEN BY THEIR COMIC BOOKS FUCK YOU MARVEL I HAVE INVESTED SO MUCH TIME AND MONEY IN YOU, WHY MUST YOU TORTURE ME LIKE SO?

This.

My 2 cents:

Marvel needs a serious reboot. I hate reboots and I loathed the DC52 but Marvel has done so much damage to the brand over the last 10 years, IMO, that there's nothing they can do but reboot.

As someone who's read comics since the late 70's, I know some will hate this idea but Marvel needs to really embrace the MCU fans and make a new MU that resembles the MCU more. Marvel Comics won't last unless they can bring in new readers, something that they've failed to do for years, and when you have a billion dollar movie at the box office there's no reason to not embrace this exposure. DC did embrace the extra exposure in the 60's with Batman and even the late 80's with the Tim movies and it resulted in lots of new readers which eventually became regulars. They made slight changes to characters to make them more like their Hollywood counterparts and it worked to help bring in new readers. If a 10 yo kid who just watched Avengers: AOU picks up a comic, he wants to see Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Thor Odinson, and Natasha Romanoff. Not a bunch of people cosplaying as them.

It really makes no sense that a brand with the kind of exposure Marvel gets nowadays can't sell comics where the characters originated.
>>
>>91421610
Ultimate U.
>>
>>91421368
You should be able to find it on google

Basically in X-Men Gold the artist slipped anti-jewish Quran verse into the background, a reference to a hardline Indonesian Islamic group as well as having a store labelled Jewellery half behind Kitty Pryde, so the word Jew is right next to her head

Not a conspiracy theory, he straight up admitted it on facebook
>>
Why do you guys care about marvel so much? Why not try reading from smaller publishers and manga/french comics? I don't get why people read the same comics about the same characters over and over again. They die and then they come back. It's become a meme. It's like always going to burger king or mcdonalds when you can go to 5 guys

I've mostly ditched Marvel at this point but some of the characters are too near and dear for me to drop completely and some ideas are pretty good Ultimates is the only team based ongoing I care anything about and I refuse to ditch Spidey
The rest of Marvel on the other hand is hot garbage and seems to be doing their damnedest to alienate their diehard fanbase by replacing beloved characters with diversity hires for no other reason then to meet a quota

>>
>>91421669

The fucking reboot should've been after Secret War. All of those Alex Ross covers referenced all these alternate universe versions and obscure characters, that were nowhere to be found after the event ended.

They should've kept all the prime A-listers and threw in several of the obscure universe characters for the new Marvel. But instead they replaced all the prime A-listers with shit SJW circlejerk fodder and the few alternate universe characters (Weirdworld and Squadron Supreme) were dumped after a few issues.

>>
>>91420917
They need to stop shitting on everyone because they hired racist misandrist hetero-phobic leftists who are attempting to appeal to millennials while claim to represent diversity while they are clearly pushing an agenda

And the worst part isn't that they cry racist when people call them on their bullshit or blame DC because their comics don't sell or take potshots at the longtime readers, no the worst part is that they are hacks who are putting out halfassed stories with little to no editorial oversite and saying that you are in the wrong for not lapping up the dogshit they just put on your plate

> If a 10 yo kid who just watched Avengers: AOU picks up a comic, he wants to see Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Thor Odinson, and Natasha Romanoff. Not a bunch of people cosplaying as them.

The problem with this is not really in the current books though. If you just go on Amazon or something and search Iron Man comics you'll get stuff with Tony Stark. The problem is that people don't think to do even this much with Marvel books in significant numbers despite enjoying the movies. That's more of a marketing issue.
>>
>>91421669
I think that the Ultimate Universe proved that wouldn't work but I hope I'm wrong
If Marvel managed to cut out the cancerous elements of their staff that are slowly but surely killing their company I wouldn't mind a HARD Reboot
Not everything back to zero but maybe back to one and a half, something like
>All the old heroes are back in their own costumes and ongoings
>FF are back and Franklin is around as a 4th or 5th grader
>Peter is in his Senior year of College and engaged to MJ
>The X-men and Brotherhood are down to their core Iconic members so you don't have a billion f them running around
>Avengers are the classic line up plus some MCU characters
>Fury is in charge of SHIELD
>Town down the Mutant hate just a tad to make it a little more realistic
>Town down marvels citizens in general because they are such ungrateful shits it is ridiculous

and I'm out anybody else have any ideas for a reboot

They did this with Avengers Assemble.

>>
>odinson
This bothers me more than anything else.
>>
If they suddenly realize that most of the people who praise their comics do not buy their comics, yes.

Also a hard reboot is vital.

Also, post reboot they need to get comfortable with doing things outside of main continuity. Rori Williams as a future Iron Man similar to DC's Batman Beyond could be fun. Civil War but outside of continuity like Injustice or Marvel Zombies so there are actual stakes could be cool.

Marvel keeps writing shit that gets headlines and hashtags and forgetting they actually have to deal with it forever.
>>

Because comic creators are hacks and without the shackles of a strong status quo there is no protecting the narrative from them
>>

I actually thought Civil War was going to get rid of a bunch of dead weight at Marvel. Like fucking who-cares Iron Man (before the movies no one gave half a shit about Iron Man) was leading the registration team, and Hank "wife beating" Pym was on his side, and they hired supervillains.

So surely they were going to lose and a bunch of them would die while others become villains and Cap would be victorious.

How fucking wrong I was. Civil War was literally the beginning of the end for Marvel creatively.

You don't need to give Quicksilver his own museum you just need to tone down the shittyness of the average citizen

Back in the JLA/Avengers crossover the JLA saw how shit the marvel citizens were and assumed that it was because the heroes were jerks that only fought each other all the time and when the Avengers saw how the DC universe treated their heroes they assumed the only way the man on the street could like a heroe was if they were tyrannical despots that forced them to

Marvel cannot be fixed unless the entire editorial, creative and publishing staff are replaced. No one stays. The company is too toxic for anyone to remain.
>>
>>91427286
Did the last one help? No, reboots are never the answer. The answer is giving popular titles to someone besides tenured writers like Slott and Bendis.
>>
>>91423499
>No amount of rebooting will help if the writers and editors are shit.
This. I don't know why so many people are calling for a hard reboot when the problem is with Marvel's garbage creative "talent" and their weak to nonexistent editorial.

A reboot with Marvel's current staff will just be a different flavour of the same old shit. They need to clean house before anything else.

I'd consider the anime universe marvel's XFL.

>>91420945
You'd have to kill the movement. Thing with marvel is their books from day one have been made to pander to the left of the day and relate to the common man. Its why spider-man and hulk are so popular.

The current problem however is that marvel lacks finesse and thus hamfists it into your face by allowing the writers to do what ever. I can't see a change coming until someone kicks the editors and makes the comic division responsible for putting out shit that sells.

i didn't knew about that. the situation is quite funny.
besides all the problems the thing that needs to tone down the most is the asshole-sh level of marvel heroes. each event after civil war and dark reing makes the heroes do the oposite of what they learned.
for fuck sake. Hydra Steve Rogers acts more like a hero than the rest of current cast

Arguably he's been acting more like a hero compared to some Cap comics in the last eight years.

This is company wars bullshit but desu, Marvel being an underdog for a bit might make them rethink alooooot of shit and get back to making interesting and god forbid slightly more serious and edgy books than they have been...

Bring back a little XTREME maybe.... just a bit, wouldn't want that to get out of hand, they did that already, lol

Everything you said, plus;

>Draw MJ as a sexy model again, make her a sexy model again. Make Peter a freelance photographer for the Bugle who gives guest lessons at Midtown or Xavier's in costume occasionally.

>Bring back the crazy hair and costumes and art. Give Cap his wings and flared gloves back, give Hawkeye his classic costume back, give the F4 their light blue costumes, give the X-Men their 90s cartoon costumes. No one cares about practicality, so the costumes shouldn't be dull.

>Get rid of Miles, Kamala, Sam Alexander, Gwenpool, etc.

>Make Tony Stark a fancypants business man again, like MCU Howard mixed with Walt Disney.

>Make Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch into Mutants and Magneto's kids again.

>Focus on good stories rather than big events. Iron Man goes to a fancy party and gets drugged by one of The Mandarin's henchmen, Spider-Man and Daredevil take down one of Kingpin's heroin deals. The F4 explore.

>Stop being ashamed to be a comic book. Go all out with the ridiculousness, but take it seriously in-universe.

>Inhumans become a secret society living on the moon again, and are demoted to F4 supporting characters. Guardians can have their own ongoing, but rarely interact with Earth heroes.

>Stop over-using SHIELD. Make them shady as hell again. Make Black Widow a shady antihero/villain, a spy and gun for hire, not an Avenger.

>If a supporting character doesn't fit an existing trope, and can, streamline them. Ben Urich, for example. Make him like Commissioner Gordon. Always on top of things, works with the street level heroes, tough-as-nails, tells them when shit is going down that they might not have known about without it.

>Keep the year ambiguous. Not too many pop culture references.

Make Marvel Great Again

>>91441965
it's literally one of those kids that is growing up with /pol/ rhetoric obsessed with finding de ebil brown beople everywhere.

He had a good find showing a stupidly opinionated insider (the kind that actually lets shit happen if it agrees with them) that got pretty high in the editorship chain of command but completely screwed it up by going on tangents and putting witty remarks in between evidence.

The vs series seriously got me into comics. I wonder how much their video games affect other people and if it actually leads to more sales of their comics.
>>
>>91421669
basically, they have destroyed the reputation of the brand

people are not angry at the company. they are angry at the characters themselves. The avengers aren't established enough to go through such steep changes. They have been a niche franchise for decades until Bendis appeared.

They can't just reboot the Avengers because they famous set up is exactly the one they ruined. Going back to basics means going to a time when then Avengers were simply uninteresting. Only franchises that could withstand a reboot are Spiderman and the X-Men.

They fucked up pretty hard. Everything else has to be rebuilt, meaning if they start right now, purge every hack and shitty editor, the could easily spend 10 years with shit sales while they build up the reputation of the current set ups.

it's really a shame because there were some cool ideas in this disaster. Perhaps in the 2020s someone creative could give them the same treatment that Liefeld's characters had in the late 90s / early 00s

Never going to happen until Marvel gets the X Men film rights back. As long as they're not mutants they can use them in the MCU.

>>91427322
>we're about to

Stop it. Stop this shit. It's not a sports team, and even if it was, you're sure as fuck not a player on the team.

And Marvel sucks. They suck HARD. People who stand to make money off of Marvel's success are admitting they suck, and they're the ones who should be pushing Marvel the hardest.

But they can't.

Because. Marvel. Sucks.

I honestly don't care. I'm never throwing so much as another penny their way again. I was a fan (my first comic I ever bought was actually a Daredevil comic back in 92). In the last few years, they've done everything they can to shit on my opinions, wave their dicks (female) in my face, and generally tell me that I'm not their target demographic.

Fine by me. I can take a hint. And, believe it or not, I'm not just going to forget about this whole thing when they decide to admit that brownwashing every character might have not been the best strategy. Fuck 'em.

You nerds are the worst. All Marvel needs to do is put out fewer, better books.
