Though, to be fair, there still are titles that I occasionally enjoy.
On a side note, what I've been thinking for some time, is why aren't the big 2 milking the current nostalgia wave that's been going on in every other media. I mean, get some of the oldies or newer people, sure, but I'd like them to imitate the old school art and some aspects of the writing back then. I'm not missing the tiresome narration and blunt dialogue, but there's still a lot of comfy elements to use.
And now I'm apparently rambling, but I wanna add that I don't mind the current politics in comics, but the writing has to be smarter. Every issue is presented and tackled in the exact same way, always, in every issue and title, so I'd just want them to think about new ways to present their message. Everyone following the same blueprint has made the comics mainly just boring and predictable, more than agonizing.
Hiring minorities, women and all that was supposed to give the characters and stories some unique, personal and authentic flare, but I don't see that. Also the art nowadays is usually horrendously lazy, but that's understandable since the sales are what they are. Also people seemingly can't ink anymore or recognize the value of good line work. I mean, shit art can transform completely when you know your way with the ink brush, digital or otherwise.
