I stopped reading Marvel around the time Riri started. I liked BP in the avengers comics I read and I thought in the movies he was best in civil war. I have no I interest in seeing this movie but I stopped watching marvel movies after endgame. Now with comics I mainly read back issues. Eric July’s comic was the first modern comic I bought in a long time.

I heard stories about kids wanting to get iron man comics due to the movies and they were disappointed to see RIRi. They are that stupid that they couldn’t capitalize on the MCU popularity to help their comic books

I still read some Marvel comics and other random ones on readcomicsonline since the whole thing is a massive [pirated] database of comics going back fucking decades. Want to read every Superman comic that exists? Pretty sure the site has it. Want to read about Iron Man's drinking problem? That's also there. And so are all the other times it comes up. Want to start the X-Men run with the very first Uncanny issue? That's there, just don't expect much in the ways of plot and/or backgrounds since that first came out in 1963.

No really, the backgrounds weren't really drawn in that much originally so it's mostly just bright spaces behind the characters.

Now sure they was actually the floor in that panel but when you see the rest of the page it's not actually much better since the previous panel has the walls that colour and the floor is orange.

Also as you can see from that panel, and the one after it, every. fucking. panel. has text. Either someone is talking, or someone has a running internal monologue explaining everything as it is happening. I remember actually seeing someone mention on that site in a later issue about how the issue that was open was the first X-Men issue to have a panel was no words in it. It goes on for years.

Also don't play drinking games with the earlier comics. If you were to take a shot every time someone mentions "holocaust" in those earlier X-Men comics you'd die quicker than Oliver Reed.

I don’t mind Stan Lee’s writing. Lots of text but I’ll take that over todays comics. Thanks for the site. I’ll check that out but I still enjoy buying older comics. Although I can use that site to read the expensive ones. As I clear more debt I’ll get more key issues.

The writing itself isn't bad. Sure Claremont gets higher praise due to the notable storylines he came up with but he also has his blatant lesbian fetish he kept trying to shoehorn in to every X-Men series he got his hands on.

Mystique and Destiny [With Mystique literally shapeshifting into a man to be Nightcrawler's father instead of his mother]. Shadowcat and Prestige [Rachel Summers]. Bling. Betsy Braddock. It goes on and on and it's always Claremont trying to push it. Bring this up and it just gets washed aside as "anti-woke" nonsense which I would perhaps entertain if it was Marvel as a whole doing this but as mentioned this all comes from just Claremont.

The issue with the earlier issues is the format more than anything. Far too much text per page since every panel has something being said. Art isn't great but then sure that's something that can be improved most of the time as things go and there are worse examples out there from later on in Marvel history anyway like with Larroca and Land.
