God damn, those replies. Image is getting serious heat.

They deserve it.

 

[Freezasaurus]

How about not giving it a pride variant and publishing it during pride month?

Well, certainly. They definitely sent some mixed signals there.

 

[Messi]

Well, certainly. They definitely sent some mixed signals there.

That's one way of putting it.

It's almost like no one at Image read the book

 

[caliph95]

To say the least

That's one way of putting it.

I doubt it, they probably put a variant on everything and crossed their fingers it was on nothing bigoted

*Sends out comic with a Pride Variant*
*Said Comic has a scene where a someone get beaten who happens to be trans*

Marvel 101.

Right. But I don't think it was intended maliciously on Image's part, at least. For all we know the book was ghostwritten by Mike Pence.

 

[mreddie]

Nah Mate, Marvel wouldn't have published the book if the character was gay anyway.
That or flat out ignored it

I want to make a dark joke that about it would contain conversion therapy and pray it away after the beating but i kinda did so......

True.

Eh, Hulkling and Wiccan lasted a while.

 

[Messi]

Eh, Hulkling and Wiccan lasted a while.

Only because of Gillen

 

[my name is ed]

If Image doesn't publish my shitty anti Republican revenge fics, is that censorship?

No, because I'm a trash writer and it'd probably be a trash story.

Censorship is for governments M8. Image can choose not to publish anything they want, so long as they're not discrimating against disadvantaged classes of people.

Actually, I say we should agree that not getting published = censorship

Image publish my books you dickheads! Ill not be censored!!!!

Only for the like the third YA, Ewing brought them back aaaaaaaaaaaaaand that book was cancelled

 

[Messi]

Only for the like the third YA, Ewing brought them back aaaaaaaaaaaaaand that book was cancelled

I was also gonna say Ewing. He's a good dude.

 

[ElNarez]

edit: This is your quarterly reminder that we *did* have a comic giving it to us straight with empathy and it was canceled four issues in. RIP Material

if you read The Surface as a companion piece, you start to get why there's only four issues of Material, and it's because writing about that fucked-up shit can take its toll on someone

I guess what I'm saying also is that it's that fucking good

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

What happened to Northstar and Shatterstar?

 

[mreddie]

What happened to Northstar and Shatterstar?

Limbo.

Chavez might suffer this fate. Til Axel leaves.

 

[caliph95]

What happened to Northstar and Shatterstar?

Northstar is still married i guess apparently his sister is allowed to exist luckily Shatterstar was part of the 2nd or 3rd best X book in this millennium and disappeared, maybe he is mojo verse

 

[La Maquinon]

The book should have been pulled off the shelves, not reprinted. It's idiotic.

 

[BrightLightLava]

They're still kicking (in the future) in Doctor Strange and the SS. But that must have been cancelled by now, right?

 

[LordOfLore]

I was also gonna say Ewing. He's a good dude.

I'm sad he can't get a stable book that isn't troubled by events and allowed to grow in peace.

Ellis said Jordie and Javier are jumping to a new book.

 

[Sandfox]

Events aren't the problem with his books, it's that he's always writing stuff with niche appeal.

 

[Messi]

Events aren't the problem with his books, it's that he's always writing stuff with niche appeal.

He likes using unsung characters. It's why I like his books. Him writing the main Avengers would be so much less interesting. But that means he will live on the cancellation and spiritual sequel line.

Events don't help him and he ties into every single one.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Some cool sketches from Jim Lee.
Ahead Of Tonight’s Dark Days: The Forge #1, All Of Jim Lee’s Sketches For The Immortal Men (SPOILERS)

 

[Freezasaurus]

The variant covers or the book in general? I've never been a fan of pulling things due to content just because people are offended.

 

[Sandfox]

Made me laugh.

The lady with the boob window on her cape made me lol. That defeats the purpose.

Me neither. Especially in comics since we've only seen the first issue.

 

[Brian Fellows]

God damn, those replies. Image is getting serious heat.

Are they? That tweet only has 21 replies.

They started a conversation tho

Except that this is a recurring theme in the writer's books.

 

[AbundantChoice]

As a casual-ish Batman reader (I dug the court of owls stuff, but haven't really kept up), are either Batman Eternal or Batman & Robin Eternal worth picking up in this Snyder CMX sale?

 

[GAMEPROFF]

FUCK! NINTENDO!

Metroid 2 Remake. E3 WON! Wooooo

 

[Messi]

I loved Batman and Robin eternal

 

[mreddie]

FUCK THE MUTANTS

 

[Poodlestrike]

FUCK THE MUTANTS

WB?

The fuck?

 

[Freezasaurus]

Sure, Chaykin is kind of a piece of shit. I'm not arguing that he isn't. But I don't think his stuff should be pulled just because some people don't agree with it or get offended by it.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

I am so happy about the Metroid 2 Remake.
Next year Super Metroid!

 

[Freezasaurus]

I'd be even happier of they bothered to make a new game.

 

[Ross61]

WB?

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 I think.

 

[Poodlestrike]

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 I think.

Ahhhh

Makes sense.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

I have good news for you...

 

[Freezasaurus]

Yup. That was a logo. :3

 

[LordOfLore]

Yup. That was a logo. :3

Hell, it's less than we have for FFVIIR.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Hell, it's less than we have for FFVIIR.

Nintendo is just pacing themselves, that's all. :3

 

[GAMEPROFF]

At least Nintendo remembered, that Metroid exists.
Man, i really want to play some Metroid Prime now, but I will never beat the Hydro-Jump Boss in the second game... :/

 

[Freezasaurus]

At least Nintendo remembered, that Metroid exists.

Someone should tell them about Blast Corps.
