Things that have no right being good

>>92894403
last issue is next week... :(

>>92894403

Rrak it's a living.

>>92894403
Because it's a competently written story that put fun over point
And because it's competent, it's fun and poignant at the same time
The Snugglepuss issue Russel did is also good, despite the fakeout the preview did

>>92894403
>just wax philosophical about random bullshit every issue
>instant 10/10
it's a lot less interesting than you guys think it is if you look at it as a whole. What happened in the series? Were the characters delved into that much?

There are entire sections of the comic where it's literally just the writer speaking to us to go on some monologue about how marriage is an illusionary trap

>>92894494

Really? thats sad, source? because I can't seem to find any news of cancellation

>>92894403
Because it's not Rebirth.

>>92894591
That can be okay though. Philosophical and sociological explorations conveyed through narrative don't have to be bad, it's just that the majority of books that attempt something like that are either obnoxiously preachy or dumb as hell. Flintstones plays everything relatively matter of fact, and while it certainly has something to say, it doesn't really come off feeling forced or preachy. You can complain about the lack of character arcs or an overall plot, but that doesn't mean the panel to panel interactions aren't entertaining in of themselves. Just because you personally don't like the format doesn't mean there's no inherent value to it, and making the blanket claim that everyone else is wrong in their opinions it only weakens the validity of the issues you bring up.

>>92894403
Because big 2 readers have low standards.

Mark Russell's a good satirist.
I honestly don't get why people say it's edgy, The Flintstones comic is like Futurama except instead of science fiction, it uses prehistoric analogies to satirize current life.
Shame that even the short lived exposure it had outside of /co/ didn't save it (probably because the people who found out about it don't know how comics work)

>>92895759
This. Should be one of the worst thing Marvel is putting out and it's actually one of the only good things theyre putting out. What a fucking universe we live in.

>>92894596
Its okay, the next series is Snagglepuss. As Tennessee Williams.

Quality of writing. Author's previous work was also outstanding. Prez, the quasi sequel.

Reminder that this book got SHUT OUT COMPLETELY at the eisners. They chose Faith and Mockinbird as best new book nominees over this one.

>>92898604
Didio has excellent taste. He is a Kirby fanatic and his favorite books being published under him are Flintstones and Super Sons.

IIRC, it was always planned to end here. And that's okay. It's better for a series like this to burn brightly and fizzle out quick rather than undergo a long, slow, Simpsons-esque rot.

>>92896167
It's really impressive that they made the Great Gazoo a likable character.
Really hope this depiction influences others

>>92895664
I think Russell said on the iFanboy pod that he really only ever envisioned 12 issues, not an ongoing. Some things only need 12 issues. That said, Flintstones wasn't "edgy," it was funny and sad and well-constructed, so that each issue stood on its own and yet built on one another very gracefully. It never settled on easy reference to or reverence for the source material and it had a fucking voice and things to say with it.

It was a very special comic. Just because people in the mainstream recognized it as meaningful doesn't mean people here who haven't read it should just shit all over it.

>>92901287
The trade is a must buy.

>>92895431
>everyone else is wrong
when did that anon ever say that? I think he has legitimate concerns. What DID happen in this series?

I've always been more of a Jetsons guy. I want a similar style applied to that series as well. Just wax about weird ethical sci-fi concepts and it'll be an instant buy for me,

>>92894591
Thank you. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I was expecting something more from this series than the usual jaded, self-serving gen x bullshit, but you faggots treat every issue like it's the Sermon on the Mount.

>>92902137

Don't worry, it's coming. However the creative team is Conner and Palmotti, I think.

>>92902137
considering the creative team is mediocre at best I recommend you to watch Futurama instead

>>92899170
>to care for people who mean nothing to us

>aka sjw antifa open-borderz kuk 101

I dunno, anon, why would (((they))) cancel something that is apparently 100% (((they)))'re agenda? Unless (((they))) don't actually exist.

>>92903610
>Exodus 23:9

That just meant to be hospitable to outsiders who joined the Hebrews, not every random outsider. The rest of the Old Testament is very strict about maintaining a distinct nation and culture.

Also modern Jews have nothing to do with Biblical Hebrews.

>>92903610
Come on Anon!, remember how (((They))) always hate the foreigners, as >>92903686 say, (((they))) always mantain a distinct notion about nation, Dont belive me? (((They))) are tribals and all other peoples are goys to serve ((they)))...

>>92903686
Fuck no, dipshit.
It explicitly references Egypt, which is a time the Hebrews neither wanted nor were offered the chance to integrate. Exodus 23:9 is the most (((they))) statement one can make.

>>92903932
But (((they))) love miscegenation because (((they))) hate Us, except when us is (((they))) but oh dear I've gone crosseyed.

>>92903992
Hospitality =/= unlimited immigration, no matter what Obama says.

http://www.wnd.com/2014/10/what-bible-says-about-illegal-immigration/

>>92904113
You're right, hospitality, especially in the ancient world, had a very particular meaning which included protection, providing shelter, feeding the person, giving them the best care and comfort possible, etc. Whereas "muh immigration" just means letting people live without caging or killing them.

>>92904075
Oh dear Anon, remeber how (((they))) always Impose their agenda over the world, but when some people remember how we need to help between us...(((they))) use money

Not much to add. Just chiming in. Great comic. As a coming of age guy, its even better.

Gazoo is the breakout character. His arc has been my most favorite part of the series.

I think it was scheduled to run just 12 issues.

>>92904255
I think you're being deliberately obtuse.

There is nothing in the verse that supports unlimited immigration or open borders.

>a time the Hebrews neither wanted nor were offered the chance to integrate.

Nigger, they were worshiping cow statues and Baal the first chance they got.

>>92896167
Hey! Thanks, Mr. Gazoo!

It's really hard to read this spectacular series and then go back to a mediocre Batman or Flash run. To be fair though, Tom King seems to be experimenting a bit with Batman

>>92904465
>>92904255

I just want to remind you two that the bible is a stupid book written by almost cavemen, and should never be looked to for advice on modern problems.

this Flintstones comic is literally a better book to base your life on.

>>92895664
The difference is that Futurama is filled with Golden Age Simpsons tier satire and wit. I enjoy the Flintstone's comic, but a single writer simply can't compare to an all-star ensemble like that

>>92905645
Within academic history its agreed upon that Western civilization is built from three main contributors: Greco-roman culture and intellectualism, Abrahamic spirituality, and Germanic tradition.
Denying that the bible is the main book that Western civilization is based on is truly asinine. Note that there are no important books that outline Germanic Tradition. Similarly there are many books defining Greco-roman culture and not a single could be chosen as the most definitive. The exegesis of the bible also thoroughly incorporates the most critical aspects of Greco-roman intellectualism, as best represented in the works of St. Augustine. Religious or not, denying the central importance of the bible and Church in Western civilization is to deny the most objective historiography to date.

This, 100x. That and half the time they made Fred some fucking sad sack, or otherwise just plain got characters wrong. They just wanted to slap their philosophical ramblings onto a familiar property so it would sell. It isn't bad, but I can't understand why this dump acts like it is anything but decent.

>>92900699
Man, don't be saying shit like this. It's not true, right?

RIGHT?

>>92895664
But Futurama is actually fun and isn't afraid to have silly or even trite jokes in between more clever ones. And characters stay mostly consistent.

Man this looks great, I'm surprised I didn't hear about this before. The Flintstones world is pretty good, glad they are making something out of it.

>>92894403
Why wasn't this nominated? I know Eisner judges are BKV's cock holsters but this should have been nominated, it's a liberals wet dream and a half. DC really aren't pushing their books hard enough.

>>92910978
Yeah, it's frustrating. There's critical praise if you look for it here and there, but it didnt get the accolades it deserved. I feel like if it were an Image book it may have been taken more seriously. Sorta, under the radar at DC.

It's a standard "human from the real world ends up in the Marvel universe and decides to become a superhero" story with cute art. What really makes it stand out is that the whole book is a less-than-subtle metaphor for the nature of escapism, so Gwenpool's fun adventures usually lead to her own misery because she assumes that comic book logic will waive the consequences of her action.
