Um. That New Warriors (comic) and Internet Gas

Made it halfway through to him describing pink hot pants wearing 'Safespace' as a 'burly jock' and had to turn it off. Fuck me but comics have gone downhill.
 
I hope this is a parody and not a real things that you can buy and read...
I just checked because I too found it too retarded and lacking in self awareness to be real, but nope, this is a real comic being sold by Marvel.

The only way I can see this being anything other than torture to read would be if Internet Gas is like an actual teenager online and spends the entire time being an insufferablely edgy meme lord that keeps dropping red pills and insults on the rest of the clowns.
 
oh shit this is pure comedy gold.

that safespace and snowflake intro had me cracking up, "typical jock" then it pans to some gay black dude with YouTube hair and cycle shorts.

Marvel are literally insane.
 
Of course its a white dude whose hairline has been blasted from his head at FTL speeds.

I was honestly expecting the Vampire dude to be HIV positive or something. 👀👀

I'm legitimately more appalled by how amateur hour the artwork is, even more than the wokescold theme of the book. I pray whoever did these drawings isn't doing the interiors for the actual book. Awful. It looks like they've practiced drawing people from behind once before this, if that. The colors are horrible too.

For this art to even be associated with the roll-out for a new Marvel series is ridiculous. Whether the book ends up looking better or not.
 
The art just gets worse every time I see it, like I'm just now noticing how absurd her thigh gap is, and how fucking monstrous she'd look if she weren't fat.

And those disturbing looking eyes. Is that how Marvel have been doing them for a while - I know I've seen other characters like that.
 
god it must suck to be a kid in these times. every company just desperately pandering to you in the most ham fisted way ever.

stories are great because we can identify with all kinds of people. i can read Spider-Man and identify with his awkwardness. i can read Superman and identify with his idealism. i can read Batman and identify with his need for justice. i don't look or live like either of these people. that is fine.

THIS IS WHAT FICTION IS FOR. it transports you to a new place, where you live a new life. the avatar doesn't need to be a 1:1 copy of the real life you. in fact it shouldn't. used to be you would read comics to escape. to be someone else.

jesus this is the most condescending pandering bullshit i've seen in a long time.

So you don't think all the kids will be running out to buy pink hot pants to fight crime?

In Capitalist Pig State, they use fiction to escape reality.

But in beautiful Communist Collective, we use reality to escape fiction. Da, comrade?
 
Experimental internet gas...
:messenger_neutral:
Could be the best origin story ever.
Or the worst.
Can't decide.

It could have been an experimental nanomachine cloud that patches him into wifi and celluar networks but I suppose 'Internet Gas' is all some writers can come up with.
 
I....I just cannot comprehend. How?


Why do so many of these SocJus males have thinning hair or bald?

Edit: lol at all the other replies mentioning his hairline. I really dunno what it is with so many sjw males being middle aged balding men.

Very insidous of Marvel. We gotta worry about not catching the Corolla Virus on one side, Meanwhile Marvel Comics is making a funny book out of of pure cancer ensuring one way or another we'll end up kicking the bucket.
