First off, I don't actually read this one, I just read the comments which tear it to digital pieces.
Second, this is literally a page
formfrom the current and ongoing Hawkgirl 2023 comic.Yes, the Hawkgirl.
Third, Hawkgirl barely appears in this and when she does she's literally a danger-hair, ACAB, radfem despite being a space cop amongst other things. She's sidelined by a woke horror show in her own comic.
Bonus points for this on the very same page
And yet people still ask why DC and Marvel sales are so low.
Marvel and DC wish they were merely low. It has gotten so bad for them that new comics sell almost as much as back-issues, while Manga makes up almost 90% of all new comic/graphic novel sales.
Even if they weren't woke, they'd be struggling to keep up with manga.
Simply because I can pick up a manga I enjoy and just read a series. I don't need 6 Omnibus collections from two decades ago, 7 ongoing series, and a wiki open to read it, I can just fucking read it.
Once manga made it over the Pacific, comics were doomed regardless of what they did short of a massive reorganization of how their industry ran. Instead they doubled down on capeshit and graphic novels continue to be forgettable indie trash with no backing.
That is another reason they didnt stand a chance. With comics, your options are "Superheroes", "Superheroes", and "Action packed fighter things".
Meanwhile, with Manga, you have actiony from mechs, actiony from insane fighting, slice of life, romance, ghost stories/horror, and sometimes a combination of multiple.
We do have Archie comics still and those are as slice-of-life as it gets.
