@DamsTrn @kylehenryallen No it was hated for being terribly written

@kylehenryallen BVS was litteraly hated for this reason

People gonna say “too many heroes,” but I personally love it. Makes it feel more like the comics and an interconnected universe will heroes can randomly show up or have an interaction, love it if true

@kylehenryallen For years my biggest complaint for marvel or dc media was the absolute lack of interconnectedness throughout projects. All of these heroes live on earth together, why would any of them sit out when it’s at risk?

@jayjjalen So is lex luthor and Superman literally could not have stopped him without the other heroes helping in boravia. The worst thing marvel has ever done was making people think heroes sit on the sidelines while the entire world is under attack to let one person handle it.

Brainiac is a Superman villain, not a Justice League villain.

@strngerebe44623 @thedcbattinson It makes me not care that it’s “theft.” Although, no product is actually being stolen off a shelf to copy it and put it on the internet for the disenfranchised, which these companies have the means to do, but they don’t. Therefore even if it’s “theft,” it’s not wrong.

@buddah_monkey @thedcbattinson And that's shitty. And should change. But it doesn't make theft not theft.

People who are happy that RCO got taken down must live in a city with a comics shop and they have enough money for the hobby In my case i don't have one,i have a library with a limited number of comics and those are recent releases bruh

@RestlessHavoc @adewale_ad30628 3000 years of experience and the only advice they had for Aang was murder. They were useless

@adewale_ad30628 Bro tryna spin losing more than 3000 years of previous avatar experience into a good thing. The cope is majestic 💀

She literally restarted the Avatar Cycle and bridged the Spirit and Human worlds. Pavi isn't looking for ancient history; they need someone who understands the new world order Korra herself built.

@strngerebe44623 @thedcbattinson Marvel/dc don’t provide suitable alternatives to rco that are accessible and affordable worldwide. Gabe Newell told everyone the obvious solution to piracy years ago but no one wants to listen and rather police poor ppl for choosing a meal over the comic industry.

@buddah_monkey @thedcbattinson then we should fix that problem. the solution isnt theft that leads to people losing work and books getting cancelled from lack of sales

@strngerebe44623 @thedcbattinson That is on the industry not the consumer.

@TheComicBoss @thedcbattinson So do you think when someone pirates something, there’s a sellable version of that product that is now no longer sellable? If they don’t want piracy then they should prioritize accessibility and affordability. Even if you are “poor as shit” you still sound privileged as hell

@thedcbattinson So that gives you the right to steal it? I'm poor as shit and still manage to get the comics I want. And if you are reading anything outside of marvel and DC, then you're a real piece of shit.

@HOLLYROBlNSON @_ghoxmr Can anyone enlighten the masses as to what comic book shop has every single comic from every single run? Even if I “got my money up and went to a comic store” and bought out the entire store, I still would be missing hundreds, thousands of issues to complete runs.

ppl saying "just get your money up and go to a comic store" after piracy sites went down are just so elitist and insensitive, like im sorry if ppl (who probably dont even have comic stores in their country) prefer to buy food and stuff instead of a 300$ omnibus just for a hobbie.

@ct_girlie Nah he gonna show up in season two and tell Devon maul let Daki die

i'm so conflicted on what the intention of this scene really is. the clown in me wants to believe it's a sign lawson is still alive, but most of me thinks it was just part of the tragedy of the situation, that the only person who did see maul's betrayal is now dead

@rudehaako Same material hulk pant made from

How did this guy even put on that turtleneck?

@StandUpGang @Whywhywhme @Visionary_Mike 5 really

@Whywhywhme @Visionary_Mike 2 whole seasons btw

LARP

@Ecstasy5927 @mcsquared34 Yea no one side literally represents governments of the world having control over when and where heroes are dispatched and the other represents not being beholden to any of those governments and operating as their own entity.

@buddah_monkey @mcsquared34 Because civil war is intentionally vague about its politics so you can have "are you team steve or team tony" and thus ends up saying nothing You can interpret it as the government being untrustworthy you can also see it as steve just being willing to risk more civilian lives or

@nationallovenat @ineedmorearms @mcsquared34 Like say he “solves the military industrial complex,” whatever that would mean, then in iron man two they can no longer further critique the issues, which still exist in real life, with Hammer industries. The problem existing doesn’t make it propaganda in support of it.

@nationallovenat @ineedmorearms @mcsquared34 The perpetuation of systems entrenched in our reality being portrayed in media as being entrenched isn’t propaganda in their favor. Fake solving the issue so you no longer have to address it is a horrible way to approach real world problems in media.

@nationallovenat @ineedmorearms @mcsquared34 I mean the entire first iron man he questions his role in the military industrial complex and even tries to stop his role in it to the point it gets him killed by an evil capitalist. Down to them showing how these companies perpetuate both sides of the war to make profit.

@buddah_monkey @ineedmorearms @mcsquared34 Bc we’re talking about the mcu’s capacity for actual critique of the structures it implicitly supports. The military and billionaires are unquestioned in their objective nature - something the first post highlights. I’m not saying that the mcu is outright doing pax-Americana,

@Ecstasy5927 @mcsquared34 But he doesn’t work with them when they actually try to control him in the next movie because he doesn’t trust them. Once again you all ignore the second movie mentioned in my reply conveniently…

@buddah_monkey @mcsquared34 And yet he works with them again at the end of the movie He can trust the government now that the problem is solved and the weapon that no one (not specifically the government) can be trusted with is gone

@nationallovenat @ineedmorearms @mcsquared34 I mean turn on this season of daredevil right now. The government is evil and untrustworthy at the bottom and top with Val orchestrating shadow ops all over the globe. How is that positive propaganda? I can’t think of a single phase in the mcu where any govt is portrayed as great

@buddah_monkey @ineedmorearms @mcsquared34 No, it was that the government was secretly infiltrated by the fake secret nazi society. Not that the government has inherent flaws in its structuring. Hydra is defeated and then everything is a ok

@Ecstasy5927 @mcsquared34 The funniest part is how you all ignore civil war in your replies. Like the direct aftermath of the distrust fostered in winter soldier cause civil war to happen. The narrative is the government is untrustworthy Nazi cell or not.

@buddah_monkey @mcsquared34 Except it's not, it's that the government was infiltrated by nazis or manipulated by a singular man and the government agents have to fix and restore the american government to the state it was before
