>>106573347a) They're filled with disgusting SJW ideology. Their gays are preachy and political, whereas gays in manga are usually likeable, or just comic relief. Comic women are feminists of the most annoying kind. Any kind of female sexiness is downplayed. They push ideology like white privilege and so forth. Girls in manga can be powerful but also retain some cuteness and femininity.
b) They're overpriced.
c) The subject matter in non-indie comics is much less varied than in manga. In manga you can find tons of horror, romance, hard sci-fi, fantasy, sports stories, high school drama and just about anything else.
d) They glamorize ugliness, whereas manga glamorizes beauty.e) The stories go on forever and nothing ever changes. There is only the illusion of change. Characters meaninglessly dying only to come back months later is commonplace. There is a beginning but after that there is only middle, and no end in sight. In manga the writer plans an end and eventually concludes the story, meaning there can be character growth, meaningful plot progression, and finally resolution.
e) They tend to allow more violence, more sexual suggestiveness, more political incorrectness, and even things like religious references. None of this is inherently good, but they should be part of the toolkit writers have access to in order to appeal to adults and teens.
f) No one knows where to start in comics, they are constantly rebooting series, every series has had many #1 issues.
g) Although no one ever permanently dies and no character's story ever ends in a dignified way, they still shove legacy versions of the characters in that no one is interested in. Few of these characters have anything interesting about them, they are just X as a black/woman/etc.
