>>21754 Quite good. It was enjoyable. The premise was intresting and the new characters were fun and enjoyable. Go check it out.

>>21683 not many people these days are familiar with Asterix unless a) you're from France or in Europe where the comics are still in circulation, or b) If you're in America or elsewhere, you've only known Asterix from the older films.

>>21905 I grew up in Yuurop, and Asterix cartoons would be on TV often. That's how I was introduced to the OG comics.

>>18972 Its either TMNT, Avatar or Spongebob.

>>17748 >I'll give you two hints: he's much more unique than the other guy and his sister is the hottest girl in his show. I figured it out. I hope his finishing move is "Omlette du Fromage"

Merry Christmas /co/

I hate the passage of time so much. Not only does it slowly eat away at my lifespan, but it also erodes my ability to feel enjoyment.

>>21537 >and I wish for the next year to be even better. Wish denied

I want my youth back.

eyy, happy new year fellas

>>1886 >end in Athens. Makes me wonder why does it end in athens? It's supposed to do something with Alexander the great, bit he was from macedonia, not athens. So why doesn't the ending go to Pella? Are they just retarded and don't know history?

>>21352 >Are they just retarded and don't know history? *ching!* NUMBAH ONE ANSWER ON THA BOARD!

>>896 >>697 >>5914 Realistically only thing people will remember about scoobs is all the Latina Velma porn it spawn.

>>21623 idk man, his works look pretty basic too and I'm friends with some artists who actually worked in orthodox churches so this does not come out of my ass. But even if his biblical illuminations were good, converting that into a comic is a whole different beast. It requires completely different techniques unless you want to tell a story in a way specific to reading church interior frescoes with all of it's wacky layout and transitions.

>>21624 Gotta admit, even though I like eastern Christian icons and art I'm still too new to it to have much taste in it. Is there anything particular you'd recommend besides just visiting Orthodox churches? >unless you want to tell a story in a way specific to reading church interior frescoes with all of it's wacky layout and transitions See, if someone actually managed to pull that off that could be interesting, but I'm not sure how accessible it would be.

>>21626 >Is there anything particular you'd recommend besides just visiting Orthodox churches? Your best option would be befriending an Orthodox artist/illuminator or art historian specializing in it. Because to value and judge orthodox art, you really need to understand how it's made. It's a weird combination of pure technical skill, tradition (canon) and artist's creativity yet still walking on the edge of what is canonically acceptable yet new. You can't measure it objectively such as "this has more colour" or "this one has better anatomy" >See, if someone actually managed to pull that off that could be interesting It could be pulled off, but that is a very, very niche interest which requires very high skill in both illumination and comic design, tho I wouldn't be surprised if it was already done. Remember, the frescos, mosaics and reliefs on the portals and the walls of churches should together tell a story as a big sequential art piece, much like a comic. You could say that frescos are predecessors to comics, much like Roman triumphal column are predecessors to frescoes.

>>20887 Okay, boomer.

>>21503 Any 90s X-Men title will have some variation of it. Same for Image ripoffs of Marvel books, like Youngblood, Wildcats, Bloodstrike, and Cyberforce. The Hulk ripoff you mentioned is called The Pitt. The term Dark Age and complaints about quality of comics books mainly apply to Marvel and Image titles anyway. DC dabbled in this a bit with darker Justice League, and death of Superman, but to a much lesser extent. At the same time DC was publishing decent Batman titles, started Vertigo, and put out great titles. Starman, Spectre, and Kingdom Come are just three examples of these books. A lot of great creator owned comics cam out in that era too. Hellboy, The Crow, Sin City, The Bone all started in the "Dark Age" era. In fact, if you ignore Marvel and most of Image's output, that period is unquestionably better in regards to comic book quality than anything that came after.

>>21503 Anything Liefeld I guess.

>>21572 And that's it true believers. It was a pleasure storytiming for you all and I hope I can do it again next year. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and I wish all of 8chan a wonderful new year!

>>21432 "non-Calarts style." It doesn't have that newfag, its your typical funnypapers style.

>>21421 >>21420 >>21419 You're like an archaeologist discovering the Rosetta Stone. I can't thank you enough for this find.

>>21435 Are you really this stupid, or is this one of those attempts to say a lie so big that people think it must be true? Anyone can look at it and see. Just look at it. Yeah, looks exactly like Ziggy or Marmaduke. Gary Larson should sue for plagiarism.

>>21259 thank, you, id say that that is a she and if anything as mentioning by >>21265 she is trooning "male" here are the pics of the troon in question i mentioned where you can see the feet think i spoke off, last two are a bit iffy because it cuts off, but you can tell the angle

>>21348 the feet thing*

>>21348 I'm trying to stop drinking Rageahol™ these days, but one of the most incandescent rageaholic episodes I suffered was watching Rand Paul go after this faggot about forcing parents to let their children transition. This piece of filth refused to answer and just ran out the clock, which is an admission of "yes, we're coming for your children." Of all the crimes that can be laid at Biden's (and his controllers') feet, giving a fellow pedophile unfettered access to an entire nation's children is one of the most egregious.

>>21161 >John Byrne happens to be the guy who made it canon that Reed Richards met Sue Storm when he was an adult and she was a child I am not in any way suggesting Byrne isn't a complete deviant, but my little brother had that issue and Reed appeared to be 17-18 at the time, (boarding with the Storms while attending college) with Sue being 10-11 (hard to tell because Byrne always draws kids as dwarves). Sue got a crush on him, which is fine, that happens, and Reed appeared super uncomfortable with the whole thing. THAT SAID... It's absolutely disgusting that he'd even consider a relationship with her when she came of age. I knew a young girl who appeared to have a crush on me when I was a teenager. She came of age, and was very beautiful, but all I saw was the kid who cut her Barbies' hair with safety scissors and threw a shit fit when her mom told her should couldn't get a popsicle from the ice cream guy in the summer. I can't imagine a real-life Reed could have met Sue 10 years later and thought "Hubba hubba!" There's also another horrifying wrinkle to this: Reed's fiercest competition for his wife is a man who fought Nazis in WWII. Sue seems to have a type.

>>21162 You call it disgusting, but that age gap was not at all uncommon until very recent decades. Also, Reed and Ben also fought in World War II originally. They just sort of don't specifically refer to what war they fought in anymore.

>>21175 >You call it disgusting, but that age gap was not at all uncommon until very recent decades. It was pretty gross back then, too.

>>21165 Tired and dead. The fate of all shows that are not canceled when their premise grows tired. Big Picture Show was a good send off. Right now you would probably watch >EEnE Higher EDucation With them in college or some shit.

Ever heard of The Simpsons?

>>20555 >cartoon artist Everyone can do it with practice and passion anon. Now, if you mean, "can I make a living or reach a goodly amount of fame" then that's up to you and how many cocks you can such physically (old producer wrinkle cock) and figuratively (agreeing with your "senpais" in every single thing for years).

>>20555 It's really easy. Step 1: Be ready to draw 8-12 hours daily Step 2: Do this for 12 years Step 3: Profit

>>20812 >schizo

>>20834 It was the early 2000's and such movies were deemed so for nerds. Even with the Maxim stunt and A-list cast, Final Fantasy: Spirits Within was still met with mixed reviews. It was the same for Heavy Metal 2000.

>>20838 Even tho you could make some sense. Anon cmon >craked Is not a source to cite in any discussion, it's on the same level of CH or the onion. Here's literally the end of the article you posted "This is why, when some people point out how racist the Lord of the Rings stories are (i.e., orcs are evil by virtue of being born orcs, dwarfs are greedy because they are dwarfs, Aragorn is heroic due to his "blood"), it's both correct and unfair. It's correct because, yes, that is the way Tolkien's universe is set up -- nobody in the stories hesitates to make sweeping generalizations about a race, and they're always proven right when they do. Frodo's magical sword didn't glow in the presence of enemies, it glowed in the presence of a certain race (orcs). Go write a movie about a hero with a gun that glows in the presence of Arabs. See what happens. But it's also unfair, because Tolkien clearly didn't sit down and think, "I'm going to increase the net weight of racism in the world in order to firmly establish white dominance! And I'll do it with elves!" He was just writing what he knew. Of course a guy born in 1892 assumed that Nordic races were evolved and graceful, that certain other races were born savages and that midgets love axes. Hell, he could have been the least racist person he knew, and he'd still be the equivalent of a Klansman today. Whether or not the agenda was intentional is utterly irrelevant."

>>20828 That wasn't the argument being made in the post you quoted. The argument being made wasn't that you didn't say "most," it wasn't about percentages, it was clearly agreeing with you in the assessment of the current industry. The point being made is that the current industry is an anomaly that does not reflect the broader history of the industry, and the complaints about it should specifically be directed to the modern industry, as to imply things were always like this is simply incorrect. To continue with the Star Wars references, Anakin Skywalker was killed by Darth Vader, from a certain point of view. The current industry is not the same as the one that existed from the 1930s until like five years ago. It didn't just evolve, it got taken over. Even the specific part you quoted obviously isn't even about percentages. If someone is here talking about Star Trek TOS, to jump in and act like Discovery or Picard are really the same thing is missing the point. >>20833 They've had subscription services for a long time but they suck. For example, you'd think they'd have practically every comic the company ever published. Nope. Despite how important continuity is, what you get is a random smattering of issues. You can't just sit down and read every issue of Amazing Spider-Man in order. I also understand there are some cases where particular things have rights problems. Like that issue of Marvel-Team Up where Spider-Man meets the Not Ready for Prime-Time Players and John Belushi fights The Silver Samurai is missing from the Essential Marvel-Team Up collections, but missing that issue is a lot more understandable than just missing random issues of the original Clone Saga or whatever. But then again, to do sit down and read all of Amazing Spider-Man without also reading Spectacular and Team-Up and Web Of and all the other Spider-Man stuff would still leave out most of the story. You need all of that. And actually, what would really be useful would be different ways to sort things, like not just every issue of a series, but every appearance of a character sorted by release date. Hell, every comic they have on their service, sorted by release date, should be an option. Actually, custom lists would be useful too, and users could share them, because sometimes getting a full story, especially in modern stuff, is just a huge clusterfuck. Especially when it's a character that has multiple series that take place in "the present" but all release at the same time and all end every issue on a cliffhanger. What they need is a subscription for a reasonable price, obviously no more than Netflix, that has every comic the company has the rights for, maybe with exceptions so that a comic gets a grace period of being published for like six months to maybe two years before getting added to the subscription service, because I know they want to try to make money off selling new stuff individually, but a subscription even just for old stuff would still be good. Add some quality of life stuff like the sorting options I just mentioned, which should be trivially easy. And of course make sure the basic reading experience is adequate, with decent zoom functions and all that. These things don't sound like they should be very hard, but it's more than any comic company has been able to do. If they did, they'd probably make some money. But they are just too damn stupid. >>20839 >You're predicating your claim on an inherent equality in ideological beliefs I don't see where he implied this. There are plenty of other arguments in favor of absolute freedom of speech. For example, one argument would be that you're precisely the type of person who will be silenced once anyone gets enough power to silence masses. Hell, by the fact that you've been chased all the way to this dank corner of the internet, we can see that they've already been trying to silence you. People shouldn't have that kind of power. >>20899
