What actually bothers me is the growing lack of imagination in circles that are all about...imagination. With the creative spheres becoming more and more commercialized/commoditized, everything that was once cool is becoming an uninspired mash-up. Formerly, artistic talents sought to distinguish themselves and their work from one another. Now, they cannot seem to wait to regurgitate whatever expression their contemporaries have enjoyed success doing. Art and style have become formulaic and this fact makes me very uncomfortable.

Yeah, I wish they would just finish up a specific line before revisiting a character and recasting them...The Video game ones like Tekken and SF you would think would be easy for them to knock them all out unlike the comic ones...

I think that's what happened they're doing more different newer Marvel Now characters, and none of the hot classic ones.

True, they're definitely making them less risque that's for sure...at least the comic lines that is...
