So instead of 15 titles that sell 20k and three that are above 30k, they'll have 10 that sell below 20k and three that are above 30k?

Mi gente! What's gonna happen with my amigx America?

>>93319586
Good. Marvel's got far too many titles and far too few good ideas. They could stand to trim the fat.
>>
Watch them increase the prices to make up for the loss of issues to sell.

>>93319658
Marvel is retarded, yes

>they cancelled Moon Knight

fuck marvel
>>
>>93319847
It's getting relaunched. They want that low-budget Netflix show PR about "muh mental illness".
>>
>>93319892
I was really fucked off with how Lemire handled Moon Knight's mental illness. It came off as so preachy and realistic, as opposed to the Ellis run which went with "Yeah you're nuts because you have a literal Egyptian God colonizing your brain" instead "You were always mentally ill, but that's okay sweetie we're all #different, just got to accept it :^)"
>>
>>93319892
They better do something different than another ''It's a dream within a dream or is it?!!'' horseshit.
>>
>>93319970
Exactly. I wasted over a year with that shit. Only for Marc to get the Tumblr treatment and climb some stairs. And the next volume will be exactly that. And the TV Show itself will also be exactly that.

They're so fucking retarded that they got Ellis to streamline the character for them, he did, he provided an awesome explaination, and then... a year later they threw that in the garbage and went with literally Tumblr-Tier. SMDH...
>>
>>93319982
Nah, it'll be a "slice of life" book with Marc dealing with his mental illness and getting help from his friends to combat it. He might reconnect with his rabi dad. Mark my words. We'll never get bad-ass werewolf hunter MK back.
>>
>>93320019
>SMDH...
Leave.
>>
>>93320063
I'm not gonna write that whole shit anon. It's fucking 4chan, not a research paper...
>>
>>93320019
>>93320043
It sucks because I think a combo of the noir vibe of the 80's run with the surrealist supernatural vibe of the Ellis run would be fucking amazing. The mental illness would be a great veil to use so you don't have to clarify if ghost punks, telekinetic mushroom parasites or werewolves are real.

But I just KNOW it will be "dealing with the realities of mental illness"
>>
>>93320077

You have to go back to wherever you came from.
>>
>>93319730
shell be fine
>>
>>93320063
Pls no bulli
>>
>>93320140
Exactly. But yeah, we're just gonna get Gay Frenchie uwu and Marc having coffee while he tries to piece his life together. I'm 99% certain.
>>93320145
Yeah yeah, you said that already. Protip: Trying too hard makes it obvious you newfag.
>>
>>93319794
If they sold slightly longer split issues for a buck or two more I'd be on board.
>>
>>93319586
On one hand, this is a good thing because currently there's way too fucking many Marvel books which results in a lot of great fringe books not getting any attention and failing because they get lost in the sea of shit that is current Marvel.

On the other hand, the books that would get trimmed ARE those great fringe books, so instead of having a sea of shit with some gems hidden inside, we'd just have a pool of shit.
>>
>>93319586
Hopefully this means their good creatives won't get spread so thin.
>>
>>93319586
So they'll start putting out a bunch of double shipped books, just like DC?

Reminder the legacy books you want culled aren't the ones that will get culled.

>>93320238
Honestly, I'd rather see one x-men title published weekly than four x-men titles published monthly.
>>
>>93319586
I really want Legacy to be Marvel's Rebirth...but I just know it will be another ANAD.
>>
>>93320063
Oh sweetie there's no need to be upset

On a scale from 1 to creativity, how craddle dead is Generation X?

What pisses me off most is that they wasted fucking Stokoe on Lemire's garbage.

I'm in favour of anything that makes reading through the shitshow that is the Marvel solicits every month faster.
>>
>>93319982
At least it is not another midlife crisis with every relaunch. Moon Knight got off lucky. Iron Fist? Not so much. There is only so much midlife crisis that you can go through when you are in your fucking 30s.
>>
So is there a list of what's getting cut?
>>
>>93319586
They're already hemorrhaging them like an emo hemophiliac.
Wonder what they're going to cut.

It's like you're pretending to know absolutely nothing about the readership drops all comics suffer from 1 to 2. That Guardians drop is actually pretty good, they usually are close to 50%
>>
>>93319586
they'll all be $5 each and come out weekly.
>>
>>93320419
>>93320435
Is that this month's? Because that's like... 40% in the sub-20k cancellation threshold.
>>
>>93320413
Goddamn, those X numbers are pathetic. It would be sad if it wasn't so well deserved.
>>
>>93320479
Yeah, it's the comicchron data filtered to remove non-marvel and secret empire.
