What is with people trying to self-insert themselves into whatever medium their working on?

Never expected to like it but Gwenpool is one of the only Marvel comics that I can still stand, so it bothers me when a sjw on the editorial staff is trying to convince people that SHE IS ACTUALLY GWENPOOL. ...Besides Gwen being actually drawn to match her, new hair changes and all... She also posts about what Gwen would like and dislike at the early hours of the morning and tries to make big insights into her character, despite not being a writer.
Where did the boundary go between creation and... well, not quite creator but someone in the vicinity of the creator go?
>>
>>93228900
Is she autistic?
>>
>>93228900
I have a much bigger problem with Gwenpool's character design changing. Why does she look so much older now?
>>
>>93228900
Just don't look at that shit nigga.

Daily Reminder

Gwenpool is pretty decent desu
I feel like a faggot reading it but whatever
>>
>>93228974
Yeah, I expected it to be all WOW, AWESOME, LUL XD
But it actually made me chuckle quite a few times, apparently one of the writers of the adventure time comics works on it, so that's probably it.
>>
>>93228900
Reminder that Gwenpool fans were mocking Animal Man and saying that Hastings use the 4th wall better than Morrison because he does it in a funny way.
>>
>>93228974
>>93229013
It's unpretentious and isn't trying to make a statement. It's just fun.

I know that gets thrown around as a buzzword a lot, but it fits. Silly and fun. I mean the idea of a Gwenpool is an inherently stupid idea so you might as well have some fun with it.
>>
>>93229016
categorically false
>>
>>93228932
>Is she autistic?
No shes a qt
>>
>>93229100
It is true.

Gwenpool fans were calling Animal Man "pretentious garbage".
>>
>>93228934
She looks her age now.
>>
I'm not seeing anything showing that she's self-inserting as Gwenpool. From OP's image, it just looks like she's imitating Gwenpool's hair coloration, and that's it.
>>
>>93229057
Nah... Trying to immortalize themselves in a medium that they did not create and interfere with the artistic direction so they can feel good about themselves is pretty pretentious to me.
I know Gwenpool isn't exactly a classic but I like the idea of it evolving on its own, rather than some beta cucks changing it to impress a girl on the editorial staff.

they're not wrong

>>93229302
I don't like either, but Animal Man's ending is childishly simple but acts like its deep. Morrison writes himself into the story so that he can tell Buddy ( and the reader) the point of the story.

The Coyote Gospel was better in every way and it was the same story told in a single issue. I really enjoyed Animal Man up until Deus Ex Machina, but fuck that ending.

>implying this wasn't the worst part of Grant's Animal Man

Ostrander was right to kill Grant off.
>>
>>93229131
Which means she looks older and therefore uglier

Fuck that shit, yo.

What's up with Animal Man/Gwenpool comparisons? This is like comparing Moore's Swamp Thing to current Groot.

At best, Gwenpool is fun, and nothing more. It is no classic nor anything groundbreaking, the best comparison would be Giffen's Blue Bettle.
>>
>>93230282
The comparisons are coming from the 4th wall breaking and the self insertion of people who work on the medium, since it appears in both comics.
>>
>>93230581
It is still a stupid comparison. Animal Man is in another tier.
>>
>>93230615
just because the quality is different, doesn't mean shared major themes cannot be discussed.
I don't like self insertion, it was cringy when Steven King done it. Its creepy when Jake Goldman does it and its sad when Heather Antos is doing it.
>>
>>93229121
I was there for the last thread and nobody was saying that. What was there was an autist who kept trying to force Animal Man into the discussion at any cost.

Well golly, I guess we should just burn 4chan to the ground because some individuals had opinions. Get me the matches.
>>
>>93228974
It's just a cute comic about a qt doing cute things, nothing more nothing less
it's escapist and the humor feels natural without forced memes
no politics, no shaming, no SYNERGY(mostly)
>>
>>93231081
The weak points for me are when they try to crossover. Like, the Thor, Spider-man, Ghost-Rider cameos felt really lame. For some reason I didn't dislike Hawkeye's cameo as much. Mostly it was just kind of funny she felt like she was just there because fuck it why not? Like that was the most honest cameo. The "i'm just here for a paycheck" cameo.
>>
>>93229121
>>93229386
no, I meant categorically false that it happened
>>
>>93231236
Yeah, people weren't calling animal man pretentious garbage, they were calling Grant Morrison pretentious garbage.

Actually I'm pretty sure the anon harping on it said YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST PEOPLE GWENPOOL FANS THINK ANIMAL MAN IS PRETENTIOUS GARBAGE because someone said from a few pages that were posted that grant came across as a pretentious asshole, and someone responded to anon 'because it is" because of course 4chan is going to respond that way where the fuck do you think you are?
>>
>>93231236
It happened though.

>implying you're not waiting to post a meticulously collected screencap

Women are narcissistic subhumans who try to compensate for their inherent lack of intelligence and capacity by being "awesome" in fiction..
Wow, what a revelation.

Is this a comic web? This is very poorly designed by Marvel standards
>>
>>93231871
It is the best comic being published right now according to Gwenpool threads.

Guest artist. Or fill-in artist. Whatever, same end effect.

Gurihiru can't draw every issue so at times they bring in those shitty artists to fill the gap.

Would comic artist please pay closer attention to references when drawing guns?
>>
>>93231900
Fill-in artist. A fill-in is when they need to get an artist to do an issue or two so the main artist would have more time to do their own arc. A guest artist is when an artist is specifically sought out to do an issue for one reason or another, such as if they're a big name draw or their style would be particularly well suited to that particular issue or arc.

When Natashi Allegri did that issue of Hellcat, she was a guest artist. When pretty much anyone besides Gurihiru has done an issue of Gwenpool, it's been fill-in artists.
>>
>>93231929
I don't. Anything related to Wonder Woman is inherently horrible.
>>
>>93232193
Thanks anon, now I know!
>>
>>93232162
To be fair, that's probably a Glock (in the Gwenpool page, not your image).
They don't deserve any attention.

It's you from that Terra thread, isn't it?

>>93229101
She's not. Just google her, she's got some shades of MySpace Angle going on. Her face seems to naturally fall into "bitchy Italian" mode as well which doesn't help.
>>
>>93229532
and then there's Gwenpool, a comic that doesn't try to be good at comedy, action, meta commentary or anything really beyond printing pink artwork
>>
>>93229016
You've been going into every Gwenpool thread for months on end to argue for days on end in each one about how much you hate the book and how dumb anyone who likes it is. Give it up, my man.
>>
>>93232097
no idiot, the joke is that women are more celf centered.

Men would like to be popular because they did something while women want to be popular themselves

Is unbelievable that gwenpool waifu faggot virgins think this is better than animal man

is pathetic and not funny
>>
>>93231301
The funny thing is you're supposed to think that Morrison, in those pages, is a pretentious asshole. That's the entire point because the entire run is about the way we, as readers and writers, treat fictional characters as merely playthings to our whims whether it's turning them into our mouthpieces or putting them through endlessly misery for our amusement and that we should value these characters more.
