    The think the huge focus on diversity with ANAD is kind of forced and could be handled better.

    Look at Spiderman. They've got Peter Parker with that business in one Spider-Man title, Miles has his own title but there's also the Spidey ongoing for classic Spider Man fans.

    With ANAD Thor, Cap, Hulk, etc, you don't have that. Having classic comics for these characters would help appease older fans IMO.

    Not really sure what the deal is with no FF. If it's really because Marvel lacks the movie rights, that's really sad.

    Yes. Never thought it would happen but I've lost interest in Marvel.

    I wouldn't go so far as to say that the changes are ruining Marvel Comics. That is way too extreme.

    The new Falcon-Joaquin Torres This character just looks cheesy and being written by Nick Spencer... Not liking it

    The new Giant Man-Raz Malhotra Haven't read Rage of Ultron yet so I'm not going to judge

    The new Wasp-Who is appearing in Civil War 2 Civil War 2 hasn't even come out yet so I'm not gonna judge

    Sam Wilson being Captain America(I know it is old news but i still don't like it) Really was never for the idea of Sam Wilson as Captain America, I thought Luke Cage would have been a better choice. Plus Nick Spencer's writing it full of left wing propaghanda.... Hating it

    Jane Foster as Thor(One of the only changes I like) Yeah, we're just gonna make Titania a good guy who won't hit new Thor on some kind of principal, but I think she said once that she would beat up a sleeping She-Hulk. Also Jane Foster can somehow gain Asgardian knowledge and combat abilities by wielding Mjolnir which Eric Masterson, Beta Ray Bill, Wonder Woman, and Captain America couldn't do. Jason Aaron has absolutely no respect for canon and this is the biggest lore-rape in comic history but I'll get called a sexist if I don't like it. So, yeah I'm loving it, whatever.

    Amadeus Cho-Hulk Been meaning to give this a chance. I really like Amadeus Cho.

    Proper Wolverine is still not back Old Man Logan series is still young and it's alright so far. No problems with X-23 but not a huge fan of her's either. I'd say I'm still undecided.

    No Fantastic Four This was actually a smart business play on Marvel's behalf. The book has been doing really bad for years even with writer like Millar and Hickman. The best thing Marvel could do with the FF was to stop the book then bring it back with a fresh concept.

    one you forgot:

    Miles Morales in the 616 I don't mind the character or the books. I wish they'd change the name from Spider-Man though, it gets confusing.

    I'm going to have to rule with a "kind of." The ones that I'm not liking really has to do with the writers and either their disrespect for lore or their agendas.

    Marvel has been the liberal comic for the past decade, give or take. But now they're projectile vomiting their agenda all over me. I'm sick and tired of it. For now, I'm a DC-comics-only man

    DC is headed down a similar road with people like Gail Simone working there. Look at the controversy the twitterverse started about the Batgirl cover and how no one brought up that it was basically a rip off (and tamer version) of the Rose and Thorn #4 cover, an issue that Gail Simone wrote. SJW's have their people in DC and will be changing it soon.

    I don't agree with everything Marvel is doing, so I'm using the power of my wallet, as I'm sure everyone else is too, to show Marvel what we, the actual readers of these titles want, and have wanted in these books we buy every month. I want: decent stories, decent(great) art on the cover and in the book, and character development.

    What I don't want: 'shock' events, 'universe' or 'character' changing events that last for 6-8 months until the book reboots with yet another damn #1 again. is it too much to ask to have a title get to maybe 50 issues before a new reboot/writer/artist?

    I'm afraid Action Comics and Detective Comics are the only titles I'll ever see hit #1000 in my lifetime, possibly. After that milestone some guy will reboot them again.

    Kind of

    They need to start creating new and interesting characters instead of forcing people into existing roles.

    I'm on the kind of side. I'm getting tired of it, I'd much rather them make new characters. Or at the very least if not make new characters just tell interesting stories with their existing characters.

    I'm pretty much done with Marvel's current line of comics. There's just too much screwing around of the original classic characters by replacing them with teen mantle characters.

    The creative original spirit that once made Marvel comics great is lost in a sea of convoluted counterfeits exacerbated by a flatulent editorial team.

    Why can't they create new characters that don't have to ride on the coat tails of long established popular characters?
