I don't mean normies in the /r9k/ way, is a way to call people who are not into the hobby like most of us are and because being 'geek' is in right now, a lot of them give their [unsolicited opinions about comicbooks] Would you rather have me call them 'fake geeks'? Sounds even pettier to me.

This is true though. Also normies don't even know who Parallax is, since most of them didn't even bother to watch the GL movie, and those who did probably remember him as Galactus from Fantastic Four 2.

I understand that people don't always use the term in all seriousness (I probably should have said), but as someone that struggled to become socially competent, growing up with 4chan had made it seem like no one was ever going be able to relate to me and I wasn't going to ever enjoy another human's company.

I'm going to tell you a secret.

You can be a nerd AND a normie at the same time.

A normie is just someone who goes the fuck outside and talks to human beings rather than let their personality and social skills atrophy into some /r9k/ hermit.

It's like how homeschooled kids don't have autism but they have learned behavior that looks a hell of a lot like it.

>>93517011
>This is true though.

No it's not. People only like Parallax as an IDEA, the stories he was in are mostly actually really, really, REALLY fucking bad. Emerald Twilight is full of plotholes and rushed as fuck and Zero Hour is the worst goddamn crossover DC ever had. When people think of "Parallax was good", what they're ACTUALLY thinking of is Final Night, which was ONE fucking story.

And even within that bubble of stories where Hal is Parallax, he has the same one-dimensional "I-am-a-cardboard-thin-living-plot-device" personality that he had throughout the Silver and Bronze Ages that everybody hated him for.

The only version of Hal that actually IS a character and behaves like a human being with actions motivated by backstory is the Johns and after version.

It's not about how strong Superman is, it's about how creative the writer is

Thor is about as strong as Superman and has even more powers because of his hammer. Captain America has a shield that's literally invincible. It will forever astonish me that people cannot differentiate between the rules of reality from the rules of storytelling

superman has more power than thor and captain america don't have anywhere near as many powers as superman considering he can turn back time. Along with all of the other powers that he doesn't use half the time because if he did it would make for a bad story. Entire characters have been built on less than what superman has and every iteration superman gets to be predictable because of how stacked his character is.

Then We just dropped it. The guy had seen the movies before and was pretty surprised when I told him in the comics HB and Liz are not a couple.

its hard for good writing when superman has as many powers as he does. its not about the fight scenes its that he is almost always a mary sue and when they write him to off or make him a villain they've done it in the edgiest way possible.

>>93518468
If we want to go silver age DC vs silver age Marvel DC is about telling modern fairy tales while Marvel is about telling modern mythology. The old Gardner Fox stories were never about the characters. All the League members had the same heroic scientist personality. They were about using odd abilities to solve odd situations. Jame Kakalios in The Physics of Superheros wrote that the old silver age DC stories were like fantastical science problems. You had a problem and you had rules (character X has Y power and Z weakness) and the writer had to work within those rules to solve the problem. DC was the modern 1001 Arabian Nights.

Marvel wasn't about that. Marvel was about "what if the superhero had to work a blue collar job to support his ailing Aunt" or "what if an entire family had super powers". Marvel was modern Bulfinch with larger than life personalities that teamed up before fighting each other before teaming up again like the Greek Gods. Everyone had a psychological hangup, everyone had a distinct personality.

>It's hard for good writing when Superman has as many powers as he does

While you say this Tomasi's Superman is selling more than 90 percent of Marvel comics. Why is that?

>Its not about the fight scenes

Well no shit. You think the character has nearly survived 100 years of publication because of epic fight scenes? Superman isn't some disposable shonen protag. He's as embedded in the popular psyche as Santa Claus and King Arthur.

>Almost always a mary sue

What does that even mean?

They went through a period halfway through the New 52 until Rebirth that may be the worst era in GL history. Partially because they sort of tore down the best era. It's an odd mix in there. A few gems that were ignored. Some crap that was followed. Like I said, the era before that was the best. The present era is okay.

I love Lantern shit so I say it's worth a read.

DBZ fans haven't been like that since super started a few years ago (or at least the number has dropped dramatically), mainly since they realized Toriyama and Toei stopped caring about the power scale.

Before DBZ used to have a very clear and a relatively clear power scale (all things given it was clear who was stronger than who and why).

Now it's just one big cluster fuck and most of the fandom just accepts that.

Ever since the late Bronze Age writers have been fucking up who of his brothers has kids. In the Spectre they even fucked up which brother survived Coast City.

And then Johns sort of fixed it by ignoring the Spectre which heavily featured a niece.

So my clearest memory of that era is Hal's poor messy extended family not making any damned sense.

I'm fine with interacting with 'normie' people as they're honestly the majority of people I know. But I think the hate stems from the fact that their priorities and interests lie elsewhere to the point where you can't hold conversations of your interests with them. You're kinda reduced to small talk or correcting the many hundreds of misconceptions they have which

A) Just bug non-normies because they are so used to the information being 'the word of God'/common information in their social group
B) Are one of those things where it just implies total ignorance, which is also something that bugs non-normies
C) It's just a nerd thing to correct useless information out of an OCD like habit.

>I haven't seen a Goku vs Superman debate: the post

Superman side is the one that resorts to elseworlds or mix versions. DBfags are the ones autistic about canon. If you mention a GT or movie feat even Goku´s side goes against you.
I think both are retarded but you two had the two mixed.

That´s not really a thing, what we thought was the DB fanbase is actually the Toriyama fanbase.

Normal boring-ass Superman and SS3 Goku are the most evenly matched. SSG has that "his punches are destroying the universe!" thing, but Krillin took a full power hit from him and didn't die, so it's mostly bullshit at the moment. We'll have to wait for the tournament arc to get a good idea of his current strength.

Why doesn't anyone talk about Superman VS Toriko? That would be cool.

>>93530040
Toriko isn´t remembered by childhood nostalgia in the west which is what composes the Goku side on the debate.

And because of that, our generation likes Superman more than Toriko so saying Superman wins wont appeal to tryhards which compose the Superman side on the debate.

Honestly, I just use piratebay for torrents. They usually have what I want. But most of the time I just read on readcomiconline.

>>93529529
>sell more than this shit.
I actually wasn't aware of the sales numbers. Do you have any good sources for, say, french versus american comics?

And nowadays the freedom thing is mostly self imposed. Small press or indie shit has as much freedom as other country comics. It's just the big two that try and keep it PG even when it shouldn't be.

>>93530547
>Do you have any good sources for, say, french versus american comics?
You can look it up.

Disney comics on Europe, as well as Asterix and such sell millions of copies, Japan has a lot of mangas that sell millions of copies too, even Turma da Monica on Brazil sells millions of issues.

On the other side, Batman is lucky to sell 100k.

>>93517463
Sure, if he has prep time.That's his superpower.

>>93530580
I don't think that has anything to do with freedom and more with the fact that most Americans do not give a shit about comics in general. Doesn't help with how expensive they are getting now.

>>93516707

Ok, someone give me a rundown of what Superman's powers and weaknesses are, because as far as I know he

yeah but MJ and Black Canary are "boring"

girls want to think they're like Harley Quinn. "OMG I AM SO LIKE HARLEY! CUZ I'M LIKE TOTALLY CRAZY LOL"

Everyone thirsts over Harley Quinn, so they'd like to think they are Harley Quinn in real life.

Most of them know next to nothing about Harley's actual background, her persona as established in the animated series and the comics, or the majority of her history as told through the comics. It's like superman. geek osmosis

And because they known nothing about Harley. they see all these promo shots of the Joker with his arms around Harley and they ASSUME that the Joker is the crazy psychopath that will kill anyone just for fun, but there's one woman that got through to him. There's one person that is spared the worst parts of him because she is in his heart.

That's honestly what they think. I've heard more than one woman assume that. And then when you tell them, or even show them the ACTUAL dynamic between the characters, they're so shocked, they look at you like you slapped them in the face

>>93533092

What "relatable Superman" would look like?

Like he learn/train his powers episode per episode?

>>93534858
He relates to the good in you not the strength of his powers.

Stop just narrowing Superman down to his powers but instead talk about the values he cherishes because THAT is his strongest suit.

>>93534858
No, between random sci-fi adventures he has to pay his bills, shop for groceries, plan a date with Lois, help Jimmy out of a jam, and get his article into Perry on time. Then when he thinks he has a moment to relax he's got to go help Batman round up an Arkham breakout.

Superman is relatable because outside of being able to juggle planets, or whatever his current power level allows, he's got a pretty mundane life.

They can't afford to buy comics or hate America (or at least a very stereotyped idea of America that they think superman embodies). On the other hand, Goku is available for even the poorest of latinos in canal cinco or whatever, and it certainly left a mark on them when they were impresionable children. That's why they would defend Goku to death, Goku es infancia.

Mutants confuse the many different thematic and narrative threads outside of their existence in Marvel continuity, and the many different thematic and narrative threads outside of the existence of mutants confuse their own plot threads and narratives. This isn't so wrong, though you're free to disagree with it, it's not idiotic to say in the slightest.

He reads and fishes. Mostly hobbies he picked up from his boring as fuck parents.
But the super science shit he does in the Fortress of Solitude is also fully Clark Mode. So being a dork with a rescued alien life form pet, or building Superman Robots or whatever is just as much him being a down to earth mortal as when he's wearing glasses.

True but, how many of Spider-man's haters want to wipe out all sciene accident people? They seem pretty focused on Spider-man.

The hatred for mutants just seems disproportionate. I think there was even a religion based on exterminating mutants.

Hatred for mutants seems like it is zealotry and hatred for the other powered people seemed to be greed based.
