A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.

Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.

There is only one rule:*

Comic Books is a no judgement zone.

You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.

If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.

* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(

I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

I think we all owe The Marvels an apology...

That's because people were going on with high expectations, right? I haven't seen it (yet?) but Morbius and Madame Web both got C+ and I'd be surprised if it's actually worse than those. Although I'd be more interested if it really is that much of a trainwreck tbh, I liked the first movie well enough but didn't think it needed a sequel, I was just going to pirate it next time I was bored at work.

I think one factor is that people are running out of patience, way too many of these franchise films and shows from recent memory have been considered terrible by a majority of viewers.

If MoistCritical's review is to be believed (that's the only one I've seen so far) it apparently doesn't even have much of a plot, which would be enough to make it worse than Morbius.
