Why do comic fans hate stuff that's cool?

I click on old Linkara vide and he made fun of a character named Bloodaxe, so I looked him up and he looked fucking awesome.

Linkara among the many other critics just love to find something awesome and shit on it to give way to praising slop like Deadpool, Spiderverse characters, etc.

Stopped reading there

it's an "insecure 90s kids wax nostalgic about XTREEEEEEEM characters because they need to define themselves exclusively by stuff they thought was cool when they were boys" episode

I don't even like Linkara, but the hateboner you morons have for him is pretty pathetic. You might as well dedicate your lives to despising Spoony 24/7

Ain't bitin'

Linkara

Get him the hell outta here!!

Who's more insecure, the person who still likes stuff that appeals exclusively to boys or the people who still like capeshit but are also embarrassed by that stuff?

Bill Watterson is a neopuritanical psycho and his comic promotes and intellectualizes child abuse

Nothing wrong with liking cool stuff anon, like dinosaurs are cool you hate dinosaurs?

The thing you have to understand anon is that while Bloodaxe looks cool as fuck, there was also about 30 other guys that had this same overall aesthetic and almost none of them had compelling characters or stories attached. To quote the zoomers/gen alphas, he's carried by hype and aura and that's it. This is not to say none of these XTreme 90s punching bags had anything of worth, there's quite a lot who do have interesting characters and storyarcs, but ecelebs have set the narrative that the 90s was entirely irredeemable garbage.

90's was the best time for comics, if you go off indies and alternative stuff honestly like yeah lot of good stuff like that in the 80's but it peaked in the 90's.

This is how I know you've never read a Bloodaxe story. *She* was a villain, served a purpose just fine and had a character arc with an ending. DeFalco was an okay writer.

Did you even read the story he was in? Just going by *his look doesn't prove anything.

You still read Calvin and Hobbs you giant faggot. Get the fuck out of here.

I don't need to read anything to know he looks fucking cool and that's enough to like a character.

Reminder that Watterson hates both Watchmen and TDKR equally because they're superhero comics and he's a pseud.

Watchmen isn't anywhere near as smart as it thinks it is and Frank Miller readily admits that he makes comics for his inner 12 year old.

And what's wrong with that?

the answer: you

Everything you thought was cool as a kid, is in fact still cool

You sound like a fucking redditor

Sounds like someone upset for getting called out for making an ignorant statement.

DON'T YOU TALK ABOUT ME YOU SONUVA BITCH!

I wonder who might be behind this post. Hmmm?

Dilate

There has to be a balance. I think the localized version of Dragon Ball Z is a good example of this. It was incredibly violent and in other cases childish, but it did its best to remove the perverted stuff. Western edgy comics were too depraved for their own good. Parents stayed away and the sex part is just distracting and only appeals to coomers who could just read real porn.

Most shit was harmless PG-13 shit like even characters like Carnage or Zasz were never shown to be that violent in the actual pages just in the dialogue and the sex was just outfits you see just going to goddamn waterparks, the fuck you on about? Image stuff was just slightly above DC and Marvel in terms of crazy shit you act like all western comics was shit like Faust when that stuff was niche.

Collecting and reading the WildStorm and Extreme Studios output from the 90's is some of the best fun I've had in comics. Very high energy.

The truly actual violent and sexual comics weren't mainstream titles at all, you had to be in the know to read shit like Boneyard Press or Verotik comics.

So what is the point of turning a woman into a stupidly huge guy with magic or something?

One is because it was a whole mystery on who the guy was, with loads of red herrings, and magic bullshit meant it could be a man or a woman.
The other is because if you ever try the reverse it just reads as the Author’s Barely Disguised Fetish.
