This is sorta true. His reasons are shit but if a character has fans who also get to write comics they most likely would want to write their favs.
Too bad his character is no ones fav.
>>
>>95117230
No he's not. The ratio of non-white characters is the way it is because the more iconic ones are generally white. And instead of trying to elevate non-whites into such status, writers like him either make new ones that are DOA or just replace old ones with minorites, neither of which accomplish anything in the end. And the whole cicle repeats itself-

A big factor in the poor sales is because he was an Inhuman
Nobody gives a shit about the Inhumans
Him being black and an Inhuman just made people uninterested in him because they see Inhumans as a passing fad Marvel are trying to push and ALSO just another one of their shitty diversity characters for being black
I know I lost all interest in the character immediately after finding out he was going to be an Inhuman

I disagree. I think if X-Men could still have new mutants, a new character from any random place (cambodia, paraguay, kazakstan), could be popular as long as it has a good design and cool powers.

We do. It's enough for me.

Honestly, I'd rather have no representation at all than what we're getting now. It's either Mexicans or Puerto Ricans. The last big budget animated Hispanic film was based on the Mexican Day of the Dead. The next big budget animated Hispanic film will be based on... the Mexican Day of the Dead. "QuirkyRican" is currently slandering Hispanics all over the world with her America Chavez book, who she writes as Puerto Rican, even though America herself comes from an alternate dimension where Puerto Rico doesn't even exist. It has to stop.

Not really.
He barely appeared in anything while his book was running for a few months, and post-cancellation he's barely ever seen.
>>
>>95117618
It wouldn't. It failed because Marvel had no faith in the book. He says that he was offered to either take over an existing character or create a new one but I'm guessing Alonso really wanted him to take over an existing one likely with the purpose of either ghettoizing him onto a black back (can't think of who, though... Luke Cage maybe?) or introducing a black legacy to take over a white identity.

Instead he decided to create his own character and sealed his own fate. If Marvel had faith in the concept they would've promoted it but they didn't. They announced the character and that was it, no further promotion or anything like that.

I'll also say he's partially right about Booster. Booster only got a series because he was a guy Johns liked and Johns did his usual bullshit of going "no, see, this character is actually really cool because..." and trying to turn Booster into a serious character when Booster IS a one-note jokey character: he's the airheaded glory hound who will never pass up a chance to seek fame and make a buck; a shallow guy though not a bad one.

Did you actually read the comic beyond maybe the first issue?

I'm going to assume not in the same way that most of /co/'s Booster Gold knowledge comes from 52 and Johns' series which wasn't that great mind you because Booster (despite what people here want to think) IS an inherently goofy character. That's what made him nice to read so pulling the whole "oh he's actually a secret serious badass but he just needs everyone to THINK he's a goofy dickhead now" is a.) very Johns and b.) very dumb.

That entire post was basically one big shot against Johns and his "MUH CHILDHOOD" shit. Johns is, in all honesty, in that Slott tier of creators who write all the ideas they thought were cool and clever when they were 13 no matter if said ideas are actually good or not.
>>
>>95116702

Yeah I was just about to say that. Didn't he make him a basketball player? Black guy basket ball player IS a stereotype (just a harmless one). Hell the first time we saw Steel out of costume he was playing basketball.

>>95116303

I can respect him trying to do something new, but he didn't do it very well.
>>
>>95117514

"Characterfagging" is a term newfags use. Stop newfagging and go back.

>>95120282
He was an arrogant, dickheaded basketball player yeah. Then he found out that his entire life was basically engineered by his father who simply wanted to use his son to get rich. He pushed his kid into basketball, controlled his public persona, etc. Even his girlfriend was basically someone who cut a deal with his dad behind his back to date him simply so she could get famous.

That was kind of the thing of the book. He spends a good chunk of it going from identity to identity trying to get back to his own only to find out that everything about his life was a complete sham run by his greedy father. It's nothing groundbreaking but it's not at all bad and if it had time to actually develop it would've been nice to see how the character would've changed.

But again, Marvel really gave the book no help at all. Mosaic wasn't a diversity legacy taking over an established name so they didn't care.
>>
Honestly I wouldn't mind a character skin color or what on earth he/she/wathever abomination they want to be called wants to get under the sheets of if they were made a character before being designed as tokens.

The problem is that most of the new heroes or new names under an old mantle heroes are designed to be tokens first characters second, they don't even think about the superpower first, they are instead focused on the skin color, how to draw attention to it and then the super powers, how to make the villain confront the sexuality or skin color instead of having a high stakes fight that entertains the reader.

They aren't characters they are ideal coasters for cheap political garbage and tokens for the sake of being tokens.

Make a concept of the hero first, then the design, then make it interesting before we have to deal with the man behind the mask.

I swear to God shit like Extreme Ghostbusters pulled this off well, the first thing I remember from a literal wheelchair bound character is that he was the first to shoot and a badass in danger situations not the fact that he was in a wheelchair, now we have a Spiderman that people just think as being a black dude, because that's the whole deal about it. It's almost as if quality control somehow died and they let people ideas go rampant on actual products before even asking themselves if this had any demographic market to begin with.
>>
>>95120356
Samefagging but I will say that it's kind of funny him bringing up Deadman as someone NOT to compare him to because his basic core is very Deadman (Boston Brand was kind of a dickhead in life and had to learn not to be one) and the fact Deadman's one of my favorite characters is the entire reason I even gave the book a shot.

Anonymity instantly makes /co/ better than any forum, because it lets us be as brutally honest and sincere as we want. Or we can simply shitpost without repercussions. We can jump between any role at any time.

Bull fucking shit, did you just arrive on /co/ less than two years ago? People on this board were circlejerking over Slott's Arkham Asylum miniseries, the GLA comic, and She-Hulk in the last decade. There were also the same people circlejerking about how great Superior Spider-Man is about four years ago.

>>95121312
How are "what if everyone had Spider-Man powers" and "what if all Spider-Characters teamed up" not a fanfic ideas? Not to mention Superior which is incredibly fanficy in how it handles the protagonist.

Johns literally made a fanfic he came up with during the 90s into canon.
>>
>>95121687
>>95121312
Neither Johns nor Slott write fanfics because their stories are sanctioned and published by the IP holder. Fanfic is a purely semantical distinction surrounding intellectual property rights, if IP law didnt exist all works not by the original author would be fanfiction. Thus it is a term that has no bearing on quality related to bug 2 comics. You literally are using it as a term to mean "shit writing", and hence are making a tautological statement of 'Slott is better than Johns because he's not a shit writer'. Fuck off mongoloid.
>>
>>95121664
No problem man, am just saying that to an extent it is better to be made fun of, then being ignored or miss represented. I don't know how "real" the hispanics in marvel comics are, assuming probablly not much, for example. I for one would rather be represented by speedy gonzales kinda of comic figure, then a "WTF how is this a Mexican"

https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/2012/10/10/superior-spider-man-comic-book-series/1624319/

At one of Marvel's editorial retreats, Slott gave his spiel for the first year of Superior Spider-Man and received the biggest reaction ever from Marvel editor in chief Axel Alonso: "He goes, 'You know, usually when you talk I just hear a lot of fanfic. But this is a roller coaster. I've got to hang on!' "

I know about Superboy. I generally despise Johns insistence of enforcing his "proper vision of what character should be" which tends to ignore any progress and dissenting voices.

Also, Johns is a terrible hypocrite. After all he (co)wrote a lot of those "edgy stories that take the fun away" that they try to escape from in Rebirth.

I'm gonna weigh in on this. The guy said he didn't think it was because Mosaic was an InHuman and said Kamala still sells. She's the highest selling Inhuman and it's still bad. He had to compare it to the best selling InHuman book and it was still terrible. While the X books aren't in the gutter and are on the high end of Marvel sales

That has more to do with the opresion olympics. a hispanic man, is too low on the ladder to be included, although not as much as the white man. All females seem to get a free pass though.
With all the muslims women poping up in comics, isn't it suprising that the only muslim man we get to see are those in Ms Marvel, and even there they are only there, because they were unavoidable. Someone have to had sired Kamala.

>>95117256
It isn't correct at all. There's A LOT of well known, well established and well liked minority characters at Marvel. The company itself often forgets about these fucking characters. Remember how Kamala was marketed as their first Muslim/Middle Eastern super heroine despite the fact that Faiza and Dust both existed years prior and were still around? Or how they turned Iceman gay for no reason instead of using already established gay characters? The guy is WRONG. Fucking Mosaic, who's pretty much a Deadman rip-off except you can fucking see him, would been somewhat successful if he was marketed as just a new character with cool powers instead of "INHUMAN DIVERSITY CHARACTER, BUY IT OR YOURE A RACIST". Black characters and other minority's have done well or have had cult followings in the past and present: Black Panther, Falcon, War Machine, Blue Marvel, Kamala Khan, Luke Cage, Amadeus Cho, Monica Rambeau, Misty Knight, Blade, Doctor Voodoo, Ava Ayala, Patriot, Cloak and like most of the X-Men like Dust, Bishop, Sunfire, Armor, Synch, Storm and Prodigy among MANY others.
I liked Mosaic and it sucks that he didn't go big, but the guy is fucking wrong.

And who, precisely, is doing the automation? You do understand that to get to automation there is tons of machining and architecturing and software development. Robotic assembly lines dont build themselves.

Also, removing the womb bottleneck from humanity doesn't lessen men's value, it removes the *only* value that females inherently offer. Not a winning plan but, hey, knock yourself out.

And the reason a new character failed in this stagnant market where no new characters survive, regardless of gender, race, sexuality, is that comicbook consumers are massive racists.

Eh, Blue is good enough. The cast is awful, but it's standard super-hero stuff. What really surprises me is Infamous selling so "well". It gets no press, never gets brought up by anyone, no fan-art, nothing, but still does better digitally than Invincible and is just 5k copies behind in floppies. It's no hot seller, but it sells about the same as Stark's books,and for all of the Ree-Ree shilling, she can't do that much better. Mks u thnk...

But it's all a self-fulfilling prophecy isn't it? Those characters are known because they get constantly used, pushed everywhere or have fanboys in positions to use them. To use some Marvel examples, Luke Cage and Jessica Drew were obscure D-List characters at best until Bendis became a big name writer at Marvel, started using them in everything and now they're mainstream mainstays in the MU.

Or look at X-23 who was loved by editorial/Quesada and has been published in books consistently since her debut in NYX. There's not a situation where she's spent years not being used, dead or reduced to small cameo roles.

That's true but what character do you think has the better shot of succeeding? The one pushed by editors and popular writers or the one who may be written better but is practically invisible because they're ignored by the company?

If Mosaic got the same push that Kamala got do you think he might have had a better chance of succeeding? What if there was a Northstar solo and he was made one of the main X-Men and put on the Avengers and given prominent roles, do you think he'd be in a better position than he is?

Do these people even realize why all these old white character's are iconic and beloved? Here's a hint: it's not because they're white, It' in spite of it. every other character was white at the time. In order to become popular and beloved, you needed to have a good gimmick and a good character. You couldn't sell something based on skin color like this faggot is trying to do.

This is the only believable argument for saying Slott is better than Johns in some way, only because Slott's Batman Adventures (or whatever the cartoon title was called by then) was better than Johns' Batman.

Why do any of you read cape comics?
It seems like the character of these characters don't matter to any of the writers
only how that character can push an agenda matters to them
This is lower than video game writing
>>
>>95119731
yeah but mosaic was cucked by a female asian so the stereotype was reversed
>>
>>95127511
Sorry, anon, I meant the original poster of the CBR thread, not this one.
The author is a complete moron; Mosaic failed because racism, but Hyperion did because it was a poor book.
Elitims at its finest.

>>95122204
Asians are able to work hard and achieve their goals without bitching on social media
Therefore they are not useful pawns in the culture war

Ok that's bullshit John's is nowhere near as mediocre as slott honestly I'd say he's a slightly less edgy Millar tier writer
>>
>>95127714
I don't

There's no stories for story's sake anymore - every new thing has to be internally consistent with 1000's of other books made by 100's of other people, it has to reference events and characters in those 1000's of books, all while trying to do the impossible and inject some kind of novelty into every new issue.

The blame for this is on the cape industry, but it also falls squarely on the diehard fans too. They're the ones that wanted continuity, they're the ones that kept artificially inflating sales every time universes rubbed shoulders in the early days, and now it's all just one big morass. Without being chained to canon, cape stories would have had the flexibility required to remain relevant. But it's like when MCU fans come walking into a comic book shop for the first time, what do they see? Thor's a woman, the Hulk is dead, Captain America's been turned into a goldfish or some shit, and the only way to make sense of any of it is to buy $60 worth of trades, or hunt down backissues, and who wants to do that? Forget it, it's not worth it. The landscape as it exists right now caters exclusively to those people who have no problem dropping 30 bucks at the LCS every wednesday, who have longboxes at home, and who can quote you a series and an issue for any given event like an evangelist can quote the bible.

I gave up on reading comics about 3 years ago because of it, and frankly, I cannot wait for these publishers to learn this the hard way.

You do know South Park made a whole episode about retards like you, right?
>>
>>95117514
>Liking a character is characterfagging
No, characterfagging is a very specific term. For one it has to be someone doing some "NOT MUH" bullshit, which is actually something the guy who wrote Mosaic was doing with Booster. For another it's about obsessively buying the books of a character, which we know no one on /co/ does.

Firstly, Inhumans suck. No one likes them. No matter what Ike tells you. The only exception is Kamala. And even then she was ruined.

Second, he was boring. His powers were boring and so was his backstory. He should have been more like Kamala.

Because journalists don't care about non-black minorities. They try to make Asian and Latino characters but comic journalists don't care and don't give them attention. And even then, they only care when a minority is wearing another person's mantle. Which is sad because characters like Silk and Bunker need more love.
>>
>>95127511
He said the character didn't get the opportunities that white characters will get because most writers and people higher are up fanboys and will thus push the characters they like who mostly happen to be white.

His character simply wasn't cool enough. Nick Fury turned black thanks to Samuel Jackson bringing a whole new exciting angle on the character. And people were fine with the change because the skin color doesn't fucking matter, character itself does.

If he wants people to appreciate his black characters so fucking much, then he should quit writing them as walking propaganda pieces and write them as engaging and interesting human beings.

but people think Nick Fury Jr is fucking stupid and the means we got Nick Fury Jr was stupider.

They thought OG Fury would be too weird for the movie people, back when they went full sinergy. It was meant ro be retarded.
I did not really hate Coulson, he was kinda like Hydra Bob, a more down to earth Shield/Hydra employee. Doesn't matter anymore, because he is dead now, unless they pull an AoS on the comics

But Kamala was an Inhuman and her comics sold just fine.

Kamala was written before the whole "Ditch the mutants, push Inhumans to generate as much new IP/OCs as possible. We'll fling so much shit at this wall something will have to stick." idea Marvel had.

This is from the same writer who said that the Inhumans work better as an allegory for and mean more to POC than the X-Men do.

Bringing in a character from movies, tv, cartoons etc isn't really a problem as long as they don't derail shit. Like when they introduced Claire from Smallville on DC.

Now when they're brought in as replacement for instance... yeah.
