While discussing worst Boy Ennis, 4chan comes to the startling realization that the reason modern American non-superhero comics died is because they sucked, and that the only reason capeshit hung on is that those suckers will buy anything as long as it has Atlas or Detective on the cover.

When the dramatards obsess over something, they do not let it go until it's completely torn apart. You're the pitbulls of people, but with less to contribute to society.

They were talking about how Garth Ennis hates superheros, and realized that Garth Ennis's comics sucked, and so did most non-superhero comics. Scott Pilgrim, Archie, Castle Waiting, Boneyard, The Unwritten, Fables, The Sandman etc. were the exceptions, not the rule. I've been through the quarter bin. I know what trash has been put out. I've got stacks of them.
Garth Ennis made an awful unfunny superhero parody called The Boys. It features manly men killing sexual degenerates, corporate pawns, celebrities, and serial killers who call themselves superheroes. Amazon cancelled the wonderful live-action Tick and replaced it with an adaption of The Boys with less edge and sexual degeneracy.
Marvel was originally named Timely, then renamed Atlas, and finally became Marvel sometime in the fifties. There was another Atlas made by former Atlas , which was then called Marvel, employees who kept the rights to the name and their comics were original and unique. Unfortunately, management squashed that and no one bought any of that. The guy who does Elfquest has the full story.
DC, the other major Superhero company, stands for Detective Comics.
Mot superhero comics also suck, but the aging fanbase will still spend the money they got from their office job buying the latest issue of Green Arrow or Captain America even if they hate it.

This is worse than all of your wikipedia “drama” spam combined. I don’t care if you are ambiguously ironyposting.

There's no accounting for taste, but you're wrong. The Boys is self-indulgent tripe.

Astonishing how poorly you communicated this non-drama

Pro-superhero comics, ironic superhero comics, and anti-superhero comics have always suffered from the same problem, I can't read.

Ennis probably shouldn't be allowed to write anything other than Punisher, Nick Fury(The pale one), and possibly Hellraiser.
EDIT: Actually, not totally true. Preacher was great. Orange guy is god.

Ennis gets carried away with his shitty brand of humor, but he's genuinely talented. His punisher max was great as was preacher, like you mentioned.
But his real opus is Dastardly & Muttly

The fact that they made Spider-Man and now Superman black is such a desperate last-ditch effort to pander find a new audience. It's honesty just sad

They want new readers but have no idea how to get them. Marvel should probably ask Disney's European comics division what it does.
