>>89037914>What happened to superhero comics? They used to be not pants on head retarded sometimes.Cape comics are the new anime. Complex characters and fresh, interesting stories are discarded in favor of making yet another "adorkable" waifu -- something which /co/, tumblr, deviantart, etc all excel at far better than Marvel does.
New Wasp has all the personality of a /co/ fusion waifu. A little Silk here, a little Hummingbird there. etc etc. She's a paper cutout designed solely to sell an agenda rather than tell a story. Just like Squirrel Girl and Hellcat before her.
Meanwhile, great stories and characters like what's found in the All New Ghost Rider series are sabotaged, gutted and sacrificed to sell the next cross-title mega event or some dumb legacy character team revival.
Wasp shouldn't need Ms.Marvel to sell her own #1 issue, but she does. Ms. Marvel is actually a well written title and a successful character launch.
Wasp is garbage and a perfectly good waste of a half decent artist being ruined by an incompatible colorist.
It's not inspirational, it's manipulative and blatant pandering and over all, tiresome and infuriating.
It's sickening and disgusting.
But yes, I did enjoy how they used Mockingbird's backstory. Just the sort of little detail to let you know that this COULD have been pretty good, maybe...
too bad it's not.
