If Marvel decided to do a reboot what character would you like to see have a huge change, which with very small changes and which with none?
Marvel
Formerly known by names including "Atlas" and "Timely", Marvel Entertainment is the publisher of comic books featuring iconic characters and teams such as the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, the Avengers, the X-Men, Iron Man, the Hulk, Thor, Captain America and Daredevil. Currently owned by the Walt Disney Company, Marvel is one of the "Big Two" comic publishers along with DC Comics.
If Marvel decided to do a reboot
I'd like to see them use a character per book, enough of Wolverine being everywhere and expand on some of their more background characters.
If Marvel did a reboot I would stop reading them all together. They're getting ridiculous with how much they use DC's ideas. They need to come up with their own stuff.
@hydrabob: i know flash point was utter shit and so is new 52 plus i dont want to see deadpool rebooted
It would really pi$$ me off....Marvel doesn't need a reboot....they haven't jacked up their continuity with continuity "fixing" reboots every 20 years so there's no need to reboot at all
I wouldn't be happy if Marvel rebooted because I loved the stories that were developed with the characters and rebooting them would mean changing their histories.
@Inpa said:
No reboots, please. I hated DC's and I would hate any of Marvel's reboot. Too much history to just erase. Plus, at this point, they'd get a ton of heat because DC did it first, so we'd be inclined to think they copied DC.
I agree! Marvel shouldn't have to copy DC's methods in rebooting the franchises because look at all the grief DC got when they rebooted their franchises.
well...i'm going to go ahead an answer the question in the op, it says /IF/ Marvel rebooted what would you like to see changed, not SHOULD Marvel reboot
anyway i think it's going to be hard for new readers to jump on to X men especially due to the Second coming and Schism stuff, so tidy that up a bit
Beast should lose his feline features. Bring back the 90's Beast, the one that looked liked a vampiric ape-gremlin.
Hawkeye needs to lose the Hollywood-esque outfit and revert back to the mask and skirt.
Someone has to deport T'Challa from Hell's Kitchen and back into Wakanda. While they're at it, have him amped up again (I wouldn't mind if he had those vibranium tattoos that he had during Doomwar). The Black Panther is synonymous with Vibranium, even though there is little to nothing left.
Erase Parker Robins from the 616 universe; I'd rather not have another Hood fiasco.
Demote Osborn back to a Spider-Man only villain (why did Skarr even join his Dark Avengers?).
Get Gabriele Dell'otto to design a new costume for Noh-Varr (Protector)
i like t'challa as a viglante. why must he always stay in wakanda i bet he gets bored there just give him an interesting story arc.
@Mega_spidey01: Well his run on Black Panther the man without Fear made him look like a chump. At the height of his career he was running a prosperous country and fighting off hoards of planetary and cosmic threats. Now he's trying to play detective in Hell's kitchen while wearing some kind of cat burglary cult suit. He just seems so primitive compared to his hay days.
i like t'challa as a viglante. why must he always stay in wakanda i bet he gets bored there just give him an interesting story arc.I think he should get back his powers but also be a vigilante in Wakanda. I mean why cant he be running around a giant technology advanced city scape fighting crime?
Daredevil: The whole Shadowland event should be forgotten.
Spider-man: Re-write OMD. He should be still married with MJ, keep his Other power.
X-Men: M-Day happened but only hundreds of mutants lost their powers, not almost all of them.
Gambit: He used to be the servant of Apocalypse.
Black Panther: He is the king of Wakanda.
Bucky: He never "died" in Fear Itself. He is still Captain America.
Steve Rogers: He is Commander/ Director od S.H.I.E.L.D.
Arguably, Marvel don't need to reboot. It's just not necessary because Marvel's history, timeline and continuity is relatively straightforward. DC on the other hand badly needed it - with so many Crises confusing the hell out of continuity, the DC Universe was just a mess. So a complete reboot was needed. And even then the DC reboot hasn't been straightforward, with even more confusing timelines!
RADIATE!
