>>16146You seriously don't know about EC Comics? They were arguably the most influential comics publisher of the 20th century. As cliched as it sounds, there was a time when American comics weren't all about superheros. Crime and horror fiction were all the rage in the 1940s and 1950s, and had come to be widely known for the mature content. This was cause for concern among a certain segment of the population, which in turn led to the creation of the Comics Code Authority, whose subsequent censorship sunk the market for that kind of stuff into the underground by the 1960s and 1970s (later to be picked up by artists associated with Zap Comix, for sample). EC Comics' co-editor Bill Gaines' 1954 testimony would be famous for those concerned with the rights of comics artists, especially since the establishment of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund in 1986. The scans themselves are of a massive, $200 tome history published by TASCHEN just last year:

Most of it relies on telling you that the people are powerful rather than showing it. It’s a lasting problem that continues to exist ever since the first Iron man movie.
For instance, the MCU Wakanda is said to be an extremely technologically powerful country, yet their army comprises of an invisible plane that has to decloak to do anything, a bunch of techno barbarians on rhinos and a few elite guards. Or Thanos “army”, which is just a bunch of bumbling retards that can be easily mowed down with normal assault rifles. Most of the universal threats in the MCU can be dismantled by any country with a competent military in a single weekend.

Most comic writers can’t write multiverse for shit. It’s either extremely lazy crap or mega-autism with rigid rules.
>>17923Agreed. The autism over it was stupid and led to a misuse of multiverse and parallel worlds into not a tool to tell interesting perspectives on the same character archetype but just pure over-indulgence in excess.
Hickman and Snyder are notorious for this. The former is notable to push his gay agenda against hope just to be dark for edginess’ sake and his obsession with graphs.

>"I got interested in the class element of Batman: He’s a rich man who beats up poor people. It’s quite a bizarre mission to go out at night dressed as a bat and punch the hell out of junkies. And then he goes home and lives in this mansion. There’s an aspirational quality to him—he’s an outlaw and he can buy anything. He has a new Batmobile every movie. He’s very plutonian in the sense that he’s wealthy and also in the sense that he’s sexually deviant. Gayness is built into Batman. I’m not using gay in the pejorative sense, but Batman is very, very gay. There’s just no denying it. Obviously as a fictional character he’s intended to be heterosexual, but the basis of the whole concept is utterly gay.I think that’s why people like it. All these women fancy him and they all wear fetish clothes and jump around rooftops to get to him. He doesn’t care—he’s more interested in hanging out with the old guy and the kid.”http://www.playboy.com/playground/entertainment/culture/the-super-psycheHis entire run on Batman is in essence a way to avoid the inherent class aspects of a vigilante that is the views that not systematic solutions but individual actions can cure societal ills. He made it explicit that his Batman is too big to take on normal crime so that the fantastic can be explored.

>>17970I don't want to sound pedantic but the CCA didn't kill non cape comics, non capes survived up until the early 70's
What killed non cape comics was the paperback novel, which also killed pulp/fiction magazines.
Paperbacks where very cheap for the amount of entertainment they offered and comics and magazines just could not compete. Cape comics survived because capes where a genre exclusive to comic books and so got no competition from paperbacks.
No.17997
>>17978Yeah in the comics they’re essentially Mautists. Crumb was explicitly hard on Maoism and China at the time as well as the western supporters of the ideology. Dude made an entire strip on trashing Mao’s comment on nukes being a paper tiger. In the strips, one of the cell member was a glowie from the start, something that he got from seeing some real Maoist orgs in San Francisco.Crumb ridicules his revolutionaries but more because they’re ineffective not because they’re extreme or evil like Bakshi.
The schism between Bakshi and Crumb in the adaptation of Fritz really mirrored the latter adaptation of watchmen by Snyder. Crumb basically had no say in the film with his signature on the contract wasn’t even confirmed to be his.
The film was a bastardized version of the three comics that not only got molded by Bakshi’s liberal mentality but also his love for extravagant violence and sex. Kinda like how Snyder made the scenes that was supposed to show silk spectre I in a vulnerable position into just another way of romanticizing rape. The fact that Fritz also became a projection for Bakshi’s extremely contradictory liberal beliefs is even worse, he saw Fritz as a fraud because deep down he interpreted his own shallow leftism as a fraud in of itself.
Dude nearly pissed himself when Crumb got Rodriguez and Wilson into the screening of Fritz.

The only few comics that do this trope in a coherent way are books like Miracle Man where the “heroes” took over, overthrew capitalism, nation states and then rule over as gods. The other one of my personal guilty pleasure is No Hero, in which the world is so sick of the superpowered vigilantes that they joined forces to murder them all.

Grant Morrison and Alan Moore are both anarchists but it doesn't necessarily come across very strongly in most of their work
John Wagner's Judge Dredd is a satire on American policing and attitudes towards crime; Marshal Law and Terror Assaulter O.M.W.O.T. are similar
Yossel, April 19, 1943 by Joe Kubert and Once Upon a Time in France by Fabien Nury are both about anti-Nazi partisans
The original Superman comics by Siegel and Shuster are more New Dealer than hard left but they're still very political. Grant Morrison's New 52 Action Comics run is supposed to be a modernized version.
Orbital by Sylvain Runberg is a space opera about a multiculti space federation and the villains are human separatists
Stuck Rubber Baby by Howard Cruze is about a gay man who gets involved in the civil rights movement
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller is (despite Miller's best intentions probably) a great satire about how fash Batman is if you cast him in realistic terms.
Haven't read 100% of those so some could be trash. There's also no shortage of message of the week capeshit stories like Green Lantern/Green Arrow where some supercop learns that poverty is bad or whatever but through comic book magic goes back to ignoring it and doing supercop stuff.
No.22607
>>22591>ou never see fans of american comics even care about manga Yet you bring it up. The comics vs Manga rivalry has been around for ages and got to the point that places like VsBattles and other such places (comicvine) banned anime v comic discussion because both sides go apeshit. Like I recall reading a discussion about Hulk wanking the green fucker off so much it was impressively stupid.

>>25369The anime (mostly; a joint production between a Japanese, a Finnish and a Dutch company) from the 90s is slice of life light-fantasy by genre, following a bohemian family living in an idyllic valley on a sparsely populated island. Light-fantasy both in the sense of light in fantasy elements and also very light-hearted, wholesome and relaxed in mood. The time period is ambiguous but probably between 1890–1920 judging by technology.
The episodes are usually self-contained but there are a few multi-parters. I'd say about half of them are very adventurous. A common plot involves the Moomin family discovering a supernatural entity or a powerful force of nature, which they then interact with for a short while before it disappears from their lives. Other episodes are centered around something as mundane as a photography contest. In any case there's a heavy emphasis on character interaction. Characters often end up either complicating things for or doing something heartwarming for one another. There aren't any recurring villains to speak of; the closest we get are a few trickster-type characters who pull pranks that get way out of hand.

Pic 1 is not same-face, it's same style, there's a difference, given that they're both Hannah Barbera cartoons and not separate productions like many toonboom tv series. I'm not even talking about Hannah Barbera being low-hanging fruit, as an intentionally poor, lazy animation studio for its time (and still being better than toon-boom shit).
Pic 2 is just fucking laughable and not because its a crappy thumbnail
A) That's not /co/, Dragon Ball is anime
B) ALL Of them are from the same artist Akira Toriyama so their similarities in style are going to be apparent, NONE of them are same-face.
>the whole problem with tracing and music plagiarism Because it leads to carelessness and unoriginality, that further lead to a drop in quality of production. Some tracing or music referencing is normal, but just straight up making the same generic animation/style and often the same 'story' is a terrible standard to have.

The people who say that its just for kids may POSSIBLY have a point, if you assume that only kids existed for an audience, in a societal vacuum.
For many (young) kids, seeing a crude joke and many colors is enough to satisfy their sense of humor and adventure. What do they really know of irony and complex motives and moral themes or questions and long form humor, the stuff of beauty in sequential and written art? Very little. BUT the purpose of a good cartoon is to weave such ideas in an understandable way as you tell a fun story, thus Avatar The Last Airbender being a benchmark for animated story telling in Western media.
But, kids grow up, and the crude stuff that used to appeal to them stops doing so, because their tastes grew up as well. As a result, their shelf life and fame are short if an abundance of bright colors and easy cheap jokes was all there was to a show or story.
However, its possible to make a cartoon show that isn't just pretty colors, movement, and cheap jokes. Even the simplest show can insert some complication, some edgy talk or action, and some deeper humor. And so, as the kid and their taste grows up through the years, they come to discover and appreciate its more complex beauties, and the show becomes memorable.
From a more cynical, reductive, and profit-oriented perspective: Memorability = money.
To re-use some well-worn and very applicable quotes:
"A children’s story which is enjoyed only by children is a bad children’s story."
– C. S. Lewis (Seemed to have bit of a hate-boner for the term "Sales Resistance")
"You're dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway."
– Walt Disney (A lover of sappy animation and adapting old stories for it)
Sesame Street for the longest time retained high quality despite being a show for little kids, I can still see an old episode and be entertained and amused even if I don't need to be taught the alphabet. There is no overarching plot in Sesame street but you can still enjoy it even as an adult. Or in Between the Lions, or any number of such children's material.
- Old system: Old fart boss wants to earn money. Boss has no clue how this whole cartoon thing is supposed to work. "Screw it, these people I employ are supposed to know this. Just do it good and I will earn money and we will all be happy, ok? Good, I'm late for golf."
- Modern system: Old fart boss doesn't know much about cartoons. I think I'm supposed to hire some young and 'hip' person who knows this. Let them do the work.
27-35 year old twat who 'totally know what the kids like these days; memes and pop-culture references are totally all the rage on reddit and 9gag and of course liberal idpol'. They make the artists put it in not understanding that the low tier comedy they have based their entire show on has aged like milk during the 6 months it took to animate the season. Twat also is too lazy to have an actual style so they just copy the generic toonboom style that is mislabeled as Calarts today. The entire thing is a flop as anyone could expect and the show becomes cancelled. The twat goes off to another gig and ruins it as well until the entire old legacy of cartoons is retroactively tainted.

>>28130I got a Galaxy tab A on a deal a few years ago when it was relatively cheap, not sure what the current model is. It's 10.1 inches and I'd say I wouldn't go smaller than that. The aspect ratio is not quite right for western comics so you waste a little screen space, but it's perfect for European comics. I think apple tablets would have a better aspect ratio, but they seem more expensive and worse.
No.28135
>>28131What app do you use
I was browsing F-droid and found this open source app called "Seeneva"
It uses AI to automatically detect speech bubbles and it works bloody good
What is the difference between american and european comics you mean, in aspect ratio terms
If someone does a PC app like this, then it's gonna be utter bliss

>>28135I run ubooquity on my computer with all my comics on it and then kuboo on the tablet hooks into it and I can read stuff from the computer on wi-fi or download for offline reading. Moonreader does the same for prose books.
Sorry, wrong way round, android is better suited to UK/US comics and iOS better for euro comics. Because European comics are usually fatter where UK/US are taller, they don't fit to the screen as well and are by default more zoomed out and smaller. Obv you can still zoom in, but it's a bit annoying.

>>28166Maybe 2 terabytes. This is what happens if you've been reading digitals and scans for a decade and never delete anything. One day I should probably go through and see if there are better versions of the really old scans I have for some series, unfortunately digitals often omit interesting stuff like ads and letters pages.
No.28173
this is probably more /games/ related but i was playing that spider-man game, the one that just got remastered. it's decent, satisfying combat, even if a little simple, neat web-swinging and all that. but i was struck at just how deep in the ideological trashcan the story was, i shouldn't be surprised but i was. norman osborn as mayor creating chemical weapons and hiring a private army to enforce the law, he's clearly painted as this fascist monster who only cares about his own wealth while the city devolves into chaos but when otto strikes back at him, rightly so, they practically dehumanize him and make the notion of sympathizing with him absurd, to the point of him releasing a biblical plague upon the city (a plague that was created by osborn in the first place). you end up saving norman, he slinks away and gets away with it scott-free, meanwhile otto gets fucked up by spider-kulak and they even include otto giving an 'evil' speech about how "you must use power to help people, even if they don't want it! we must forcefully help people beneath us!" shit was fucked up.
atleast MJ was cute.
to make my barely relevant post slightly more relevant, my question is: are the comics like this too?
No.28177
>>28173This is par for the course with capeshit unfortunately. Superheroes exist to protect the status quo and anyone actually doing anything to change it other than incredibly slow shitty peaceful ampaigning must be seen as evil. Most recent example coming to mind is that falcon and the winter soldier show, the 'bad guys' were objectively right and the 'good guys' were literally tools of the US military industrial complex so they had the designated bad guys randomly blow up some innocent people.
No.28178
>>28171>often omit interesting stuff like ads and letters pagestrue dat, i've always loved those old ads, cute ones for jam or mlm for kids

>>28173
>otto giving an 'evil' speech about how "you must use power to help people, even if they don't want it! we must forcefully help people beneath us!cringe, i don't regret not having a good enough pc to play this game
are traditional superhero comics reactionary because they seek to maintain the status quo?
No.28179
>>28177i dropped it in 0.2 minutes in, as soon as i heard some middle eastern guy thank the american soldier and the villain being set up were anti-nationalists
erasing winter soldier would make marvel 90% less anti-reactionary

I've looked several times but have still defaulted to the bundled kde comic reader. There's gotta be a better way to read comics on a 42" LCD TV. Still the best way to enjoy comics imo.
No.28272
>>28270Damn that must be fun scrolling on a 42 inch, Could you post a picture
Why do you consider it to be the best way, Because you can see the full page spreads?
I'm sorry I don't know if there is any software for linux, I can't see it's appstore
There's wine to emulate windows apps, is there none for android? It's basically linux

>>28272come on now, use your imagination. visualize any large screen TV with your laptop plugged into it. then visualize you reclined on a hot couch with a wireless mouse or something.
It's the shit. Don't know why people don't talk about it more. fuckers got 96 inch TVs now.
Obviously I don't read capeshit, but the Immortal Hulk run on a big screen in the dark is….the shit.
Yeah, it can be a pain switching from full page spreads to single, and zooming, and switching back….but for me, it's a large tv.

>>28275Well I am a high iq chad, but I can't be the only one doing this.
You can control any linux box plugged into a tv with a mouse, airmouse, keyboard, phone, tablet…..It's the only way I read comics for years now. Same for windows and android boxes.
Immortal Hulk because the art is XXL widescreen style, and it's a well written run too.
I used a $20 airmouse for years until I dropped it too many times. Gotta get another.
Try it and report back anon. Try a specialized comic reader app, not a general document viewer. I'm using okular rn just because it comes with kde.
