I don't think they really care at all about their comics. It's really sad how poorly the comics industry has been doing at a time when super heroes are more popular than ever before. Like how badly do you have to fuck things up for that to happen?

2018-09-21 20:06:52 UTC  

The movies are popular. That doesn't always translate to better comic sales

2018-09-21 20:12:25 UTC  

The comics industry is a mess, they're making a huge deal trying to keep a guy from self-publishing his innocent comic about a cyborg frog

It's a bunch of adult children screaming they are not getting their way

It doesn't translate to better comic sales if you're idiots who make bad comics and don't market them at all.
All they need to do is reprint old comics on newsprint to lower cost and put them behind the candy at grocery store check outs for a dollar a piece.

2018-09-21 20:37:14 UTC  

Seriously

2018-09-21 20:37:37 UTC  

Hell, they could even go through and only do the storylines that have sold well

2018-09-21 20:37:44 UTC  

Cutting out some of the cruft

2018-09-21 20:42:59 UTC  

Tbh the main reason why I read manga and not most western comics is because that shit has an end and a specific purpose

2018-09-21 20:43:10 UTC  

Capeshit is purposeless at this point

2018-09-21 20:44:27 UTC  

couldn't agree more

2018-09-21 20:45:30 UTC  

That said, enjoyed Watchmen, enjoyed The Crow. That shit has an end- makes its case and is done

2018-09-21 21:26:09 UTC  

The comics mainly exist as IP farms.

2018-09-21 21:29:30 UTC  

Couldn't find any better source. White 13 year old boy uses black bitmoji as an avatar, and refuses to change it when a girl tells him to. Girl and her friend spread rumors that he's racist. Then claim he sexually assaulted them in some way. Boy ends up arrested, and has an upcoming court date with the parents not even knowing what the girls claim he did to them.

All while 13

Bigotry has no age.

2018-09-21 21:50:34 UTC  

This seems to fucked up to be serious

2018-09-21 21:50:39 UTC  

But then again, who knows

2018-09-21 21:50:59 UTC  

Since this is the only source, I doubt it

2018-09-21 21:51:45 UTC  

there are several other sources, but they are almost copy and paste jobs - I have yet to find this story in any credible news sites

2018-09-21 21:54:19 UTC  

That site is owned by a company Milo started

2018-09-21 22:09:25 UTC  

Nice. AFD is now stronger than the SPD

2018-09-21 22:16:31 UTC  

Sorry but who are those again?

2018-09-21 22:16:34 UTC  

My knowledge of German politics is limited. The AFD are the anti immigration party, right? are all the other parties basically for multi-culturalism?

2018-09-21 22:17:33 UTC  

well, yes.

2018-09-21 22:17:41 UTC  

I agree some explanation would be helpful. Also, won't the other parties just gang up on them

2018-09-21 22:18:21 UTC  

merkel is the head of the "center-right" party, which was the right-most party in germany. and she let 1 million(!) refugees in the country, without any vetting.
so i'd count them as left and not center-right

2018-09-21 22:18:35 UTC  

afd on the other hand is really a rightwing party.

2018-09-21 22:19:09 UTC  

Kind of like establishment republicans who like illegal immigrant for low wages versus the trump wing?

2018-09-21 22:19:42 UTC  

i don't think they imported them for low wage jobs

2018-09-21 22:20:12 UTC  

they let them come in, because germany has to be morally superior ... to make up for their past

2018-09-21 22:20:37 UTC  

isn't merkel on the record saying that they need them as workers though?

2018-09-21 22:20:44 UTC  

yeah sure .....

2018-09-21 22:21:02 UTC  

about 5% of them are actually useable for any work

2018-09-21 22:21:30 UTC  

but that's why there's the meme with "let all the rocket scientists and doctors in" ...

2018-09-21 22:23:11 UTC  

Germany has to be morally superior to atone for their past... And so everyone ignores what they are doing in the EU

2018-09-21 22:24:29 UTC  

and to their own country. rape and violent crime is on the rise, while a rightwing party is now on second place.

2018-09-21 22:25:07 UTC  

but i'm not complaining, we already got our rightwing government in austria 😃
