What about Light Crusader fans?

I agree that it is much easier, but there may be other factors at play there.

Projects considered worthwhile to translate, and especially to print, for english speaking audiences are likely going to be better. I also know that foreign projects are given more grace in their use of tropes and humor.

Well, I can't dismiss your feelings. Marvel and DC absolutely are greedy companies, and selling things takes priority. Similarly, Manga artists have a famous history of being abused by the companies.

I mean... the meme isn't wrong, but sort of misleading.

'Batman' isn't just one story. If you want to read 'Batman - Gothic', you start with #1, of you want to read 'Batman (2025)' you start with #1.

Some are also just one story like manga. 'Bone' is, and so is 'Far Sector'.

Comics are diverse.

Some Manga run for years and years because they can never let it end.
Some comics are 6 issue stories that have a clear progression.
Both are selling something, both are about telling stories.

I really recommend looking up stuff like Green Lantern Far Sector, Fantastic Four (2022), or Bone.

Don't let Fire rush to your head. I've hear these accusations before, and I don't need to hear any more.

It has some very fun Dennis O'Neil vibes ♡

The only thing keeping general audiences from falling in love with it is the wonky artstyle.

I love all of this recent BLAME! artwork. Although, I wonder what a signalis is.

Well, I'm sure it's certainly nothing worth googling haha.

Just saw an original post by celadon7. Honestly didn't know they made more than reposts?

Yeah the modern language is so dumb. I mean they don't call it "Cartridgeistan", that would be offensive.
