ITT: Characters absolutely fucking butchered by the MCU and now ruined in the comics because synergy
I miss pre-RDJ Tony.
In the cartoons as well.
Everyone. The movies shit up the comics, and in turn making comic movies has tanked the quality of cinema. It's a completely toxic relationship and it's really sad that no one involved, from the filmmakers and the comic writers to the consumers, actually cares about any of it.
Everyone involved is a slave to the market.
I feel so fucking bad for GOTG fans.
Starlord fans in particular since he became Memelord.
Star-Lord, Gamora and Groot have been hit especially bad.
Yeah, Iron Man is fucked beyond all belief. They turned him from an interesting character with flaws into a shitty joke machine that is a supporting character in his own book.
Pre-MCU Shuri was fucking awful, get over yourself.
Hulk/Bruce Banner got fucked the most out of any character. There’s no tragedy in the character anymore, he’s just a bumbling idiot. Hulk didn’t even end up getting his revenge on Thanos. For all the shit I give Joss Whedon, at least he knew how to properly utilize the two.
Tony was fucked ever since 'Civil War', two years before the movie.
Star-lord hasn't been the same since 'Annihilation'.
I hope Ewing will take the opportunity to pick up on his earliest origins and toy with it a bit. Grow as a character in the 'planetary stages' until he reaches the level of the Master of the Sun.
And in the movies? I am hoping for a moment where Peter is knocked down in the final boss fight, gets up, eyes glowing, and delivers a stone cold: "I am Star-Lord."
>Spider-Man
>Hulk
>Thor (I fucking hate goofy Thor I have no idea how people can like him when he has the same personality as 2/3rds of the MCU)
>Nick Fury
>Flash Thompson
>Drax
>Crossbones
>Red Skull
>Ultron
>Surtur
>FUCKING SKURGE
The thing I hate the most are serious characters turned into comic reliefs.
This. Only thing he cares about was her design which was already changed before they made her like the movies.
Comic readers care but they are irrelevant. The comics don't exist anymore to be entertaining as it is. They exist to promote much more profitable products. One of the biggest reasons so much cringe inducing progressive shit is pushed into the comics is because it gets the woke crowd excited and they will spam those images on social media. They get them advertising the brand and forgetting that they bench fags in the movies for the foreign box office.
If that is true we should be happy the MCU is going to shit.
Groot became. "I am Groot" in Annihilation. That wasn't the movie's fault. And Rocket was improved by the movies. At least it gave them a semi-coherent idea for the character.
All of them?
Actually SJWs are starting to take issue with the fag promotion stuff now.
That's a tough call for me, because despite numerous hiccups RDJ's Stark is one of the best interpretations of the character we've had in some time, especially post-(comic)Civil War. Yet, only the bad was carried over to the comics.
Now Rhodey on the other hand, got massacred from jump street TWICE and will most likely never recover.
Oh?
I'm withover here. RDJ Stark is a fine Stark and certainly better than CW and onwards 616 Stark.
But. The problem is, trying to mimic RDJ in 616 is an utter failure.
At least T'challa is still the same asshole we love.
Welp, I guess I should be happy that the DCEU failed to death then.
Shuri was always shit so I really don't care
I'd be happy if WB weren't doubling down on it for the near future.
>>Nick Fury
Yeah fuck turning characters black. I like the loud and proud Caucasian Nick Fury.
>I feel so fucking bad for GOTG fans
Why? Giffen and DnA took a bunch of characters most people didn't care about and changed them radically to make one awesome run that was cancelled and rushed to completion. If the movie didn't exist it's not like they would have kept going strong. You should feel bad for fans of the original GOTG who have been totally usurped by the new team.
But that's good. That means other DC media are safe.
>cancelled and rushed to completion
I hope it wasn't because of angry boomer fans.
don't act like they didn't change Wonder Woman's skirt for synergy
They destroyed the characters we loved for shitty plot excuses.
Peter being Ego's son.
Gamora not being worthy of her name
Groot being a baby when he should be all regenerated at this point.
Is bad
Oh no they "ruined" Hudlin's pet character. Darn.
>change Wonder Woman's skirt
OMG THEY RUINED THE CHARACTER FOREVER
>SKURGE
Don’t remind me
None of that made it into the comics which is what this thread is about. But I think you're missing my point, which is that the nu-GOTG were even more fringe than PAD's Captain Marvel.
>no movie=no more DnA GOTG
>movie=no more DnA GOTG
It's effectively the same either way.
Making Wonder Woman having a skirt is against everything she stands for.
You know why Moulton didn't have her a skirt?
Because skirts were a symbol of patriarchy and Moulton, a based man, give her practical culottes.
Then, giving her the swimsuit was a fucking bad idea, but it wasn't as sexist as a skirt.
So yes, a skirt ruined her forever
I see a skirt in the 1941 panel, my SJW friend.
>>Nick Fury
was already being replaced in the comics. They wanted 1610 Fury to be the main one since his debut.
THAT
IS
A
CULOTTES
I literally said it already
They clearly have no idea what they are doing with Stark in the comics, he's a clone of a dead hologram of something. It's fucking insane.
Wow, hysterical. And autistic. Poor WW.
Autism isnt funny anymore. Nigga thats a skirt and you need to chill out.
It's culottes
No it means the exact opposite. They've already said after 5G happens they want people from the awful TV shows and movies writing comics.
I’d say Hawkeye
80s-90s IM was the best.
Spider-Man and Hulk are fine and haven't been affected at all, you dumb faggot
>Peter being Ego's son.
One of the biggest mistakes because they should’ve made Peter Wyatt Russell or make Ego someone else.
Please, don't speak about shit you know nothing about. Groot went from megalomaniac monarch to an obnoxious humanist hippie; his personality goes beyond saying "I am Groot", moron. Rocket went from happy and competent strategist to a psychopath unable to keep friendships who kills everything that moves without remorse. Complete character assassination. Improved? What the fuck are you talking about?
>Wyatt Russell
That faggot can't act for shit. Only reason he made it this far is by (((nepotism)))
>Rocket went from happy and competent strategist
which is fucking boring, rocket did nothing but spout memes and tote big guns around in the dna stuff. he was a cardboard cutout like 90% of the characters in the dna run so it's no surprise that gunn wanted to give some actual meat to him. also its always funny how no one ever brings up the fact that dna fucking BUTCHERED rocket's original backstory and shit all over the continuity right before they bowed out. then again they did the same thing to darkhawk and no one cares because dnafags never read a comic before annihilation. which the incessant bitching about Groot proves considering how shallow the character always was and how dna completely killed what little was there to make him a meme character who only says "I am Groot"
>was already being replaced in the comics.
No he wasn't. The movies pushed that change especially with Son of Coul being added.
Luke Cage and Iron Fist
This absolute abortion.
I didn't know they showed up.
Netflix shows probably aren't Canon, but I'm furious how much Danny was raped by them
Casting is horrendous, and the show is even worse
DnA didn't butcher Rocket's origins; they didn't ignore or contradict it; they just retconned it. And it was for the worse, but that was in Annihilators, anyway, not Guardians. What Bendis and the next hack writers did was IGNORE. Rocket suddenly stood on top of piles of corpses. He did nothing but spout memes and "Blam! Killed you!", unable to form bonds with anyone, unable to settle down with a girl, now he was a womanizer murderous fucking psychopath whose expertise was escaping prisons. That's not an improvement. This thread is about how characters were ruined in the COMICS. What happened to Rocket was complete character assassination. Granted, Ewing salvaged it in the Rocket series, but that was a lifeline, not a natural development.
>dna completely killed what little was there to make him a meme character who only says "I am Groot"
Except I just explained to you there was more than that; Groot's royalty played a role when he met with Maximus and when he stood in the council of worlds. You're a fucking moron.
Am I the only one who wishes he still talked with ye olde english?
>DnA didn't butcher Rocket's origins; they didn't ignore or contradict it; they just retconned it
retconning a character's early adventures to "DUDE it was just a dream LMAO" is absolutely butchering and just as bad as straight ignoring shit
>Except I just explained to you there was more than that; Groot's royalty played a role when he met with Maximus and when he stood in the council of worlds
yes those were literally the only two instances in the entire run and were primarily for comic relief. groot was otherwise a two dimensional meme character throughout their run, there to talk funny like R2-D2 and bail the team out by blowing himself up
