All this you are saying are "hearsay"...do you have any data to back up @ bolded?
smh....it's not new knowledge...
There are facts backing them up...
The sales speak for themselves... especially the newer ones with woke shii

Many articles, youtube videos, etc have been written on why there's poor sales...
People want a good story, not woke shii

2021 chart

Even in 2020 Demon Slayer manga outsold the entire comic book industry...
One Piece too has been topping sales consistently for years...

You can check all these yourself...it's not an argument at this point...it's pure fact

Even Food Wars, a manga about cooking outsold all the superhero comics...you can't be pushing wokeness and expect sales lol...
You can do your research...the numbers are embarrassing...comic books don't even enter top 5

dem mad AF sad

Next: Gay super hero character loading tongue
it is the kids coming up I pity, there is a research or so that in 20 years time more than half of the USA population would be gayy. I don't even doubt it anymore because most kids growing up would just eat up whatever this people put out. A boy child would just wake up and tell the father that he is a girl instead of flogging sense into them they say yes child whatever you want. The future generations is gone abeg

The moment services like BookWalker started running Light Novels outside Japan, it was a wrap. The volume of content coming from the East far outnumbers the West's library.

I wonder if the genre could get back up in the next 3 years. Especially with this useless pivoting of DC with almost all major characters getting queer alternatives. Dunno how the woke shït is spreading over at Marvel comics tho.

The most fvvking shock I got based on that chart he published, other genres was even topping superhero comics. shocked it means DC black label would be making a killing by now if it was still its own thing.

I was actually looking for the data that states "American comic wokeism" is the reason Japanese Comics outsell them but okay.

The woke shit isn't even the major problem. It's a small problem that's way overblown out of proportion by commentators. It's the lack of new content, specifically characters. Not many people want to read another Superman or X-Men run, so they gravitate towards the new content coming from Japan/Korea/China.

DC Black Label would definitely have been making a killing with their plethora of characters that many people haven't read their stories.

there's a new superman comic about Superman's son being gay and all that...
There are many feminist comics...these guys don't have a story to tell...they just use it as a medium to spread their woke shit...and it's very obvious

I guess so.
It was easier for me to read Black Label content than main DC back then.

True on new characters.
I noticed there's an uptick in creation of new characters at DC. And they seem to be doing better than the already existing character comics.
Yara Flor and the Infinite Frontier new characters and the likes seem to be a big hit with the fans.

Me e don tey wey I read comic o. The last time I tried last year October/November I was stuck on Doomsday Clock.

Were Tim Drake, Jackson Hyde and Jon Kent comics making numbers before they came out as LGBTQ?

If the LGBTQ content was really the problem, then why aren't the heteronormative superhero comics doing huge numbers then?

Many feminist comics? How many them dey? And why doesn't feminist themes affect Shoujo and Josei manga sales?

I'd take that initial W and rest, if I was you. You don't want to deep this argument with me.

I don't still think wokeness has been mainly the problem. Comic enthusiasts have been complaining for some years now of dropping quality of comics these days. And I think fresh takes or NEW content is blamed for this.

Gay characters and the likes ain't new in comics these days and that superman son narrative ain't surprising or gonna turn off people in significant numbers. We've known Wonder Woman is Bi although not explicitly stated for decades. Harley Quinn is obviously Bisexual, so is Poison Ivy. Even that Tim Drake sef get gay vibes with him right from time. I won't be surprised if he comes out. The first Green Lantern Alan Scott is also gay. So all this one no dey surprise any ardent follower of comics.

It's just more publicised or talked about these days.

Disney doing damage control after they handled the "don't say gay" fiasco terribly. This won't happen eventually,they are just gaybaiting as usual.....even if they do it,it will be the bare minimum because they don't have a great history of queer representation (cough cough Loki) so nothing to worry about. Nobody is "forcing anything down your throat"

The premium SIMPING that's why I keep using the movie as primary reference point to Will's behaviour. Just kinda funny I watched that movie 2 days before Smith's shitfest.
If you closely look at the story you'll see its weakness all through. The great acting and Ana De Armas tits was just engaging enough to paper the cracks.

What even surprised me, the cops couldn't even get autopsy report and forensics showing strangulation as cause of death. No traces of fingerprints or anything. Werey even pretended to burn his fingers in the pan, from there I thought the movie will explore how he will explain himself if that strangulation argument was brought forward.

I swear. Dumb sloppy kills. I even thought dude was a genius, showing the way he kills them showed no evidence of calculating brilliance. You kill person, you put stone for him chest. No be to make the person sink to the bottom of the river? Mumu kept the body and had to go back to do clean-ups. Dumb move.


The same person directed Unfaithful so I'm not surprised

honest question man, do you go about searching for gayy comments on this site, because I never see your contribution here, the last time we had a gayy argument in movies that how you appeared from nowhere now here you are again.

I surprise last week when I see say that Naomi character wey Xavier5 dey obsessed with was claimed to now be the strongest JL member on ScreenRant.
That Yara has been one interesting character I've been meaning to follow especially since her issues are new and not much.
E go dey easier to catch up on this character now before she blow up and go mainstream in the next few years. I no go surprise if I see am for the upcoming Wonder Woman projects especially Amazons. cheesy

It's one thing to make something for a demographic so long as it meets their needs and tells a good story

It's another thing to make a woke story without any concern or focus on plot...
