A very old theory which seems to pretty much be the consensus these days. Interesting nonetheless. It's also nice to see that people defending and liking Joe Q isn't limited to one board.  |

You know I stayed out of your several "one more day" threads just to avoid this sort of the eventual miscommunication and escalation of posts back and forth between us that always happen (so let it be known I tried...). Is it an old theory? Maybe, but it's new to me. I haven't had the time or inclination to really look more than just now when the story is underway. And some folks SEEM in my opinion (not directing this at anyone in particular or even on this board necessarily as I don't want to defend it via five hundred posts and looking up old threads all over the web to prove a case against anyone as I little interest in doing so) to opine than mostly old fogey fans who don't follow many of the new books have this hatred of Joe Q's methods. It appears that even those who are current fans and regular readers are at least occasionally severely frustrated by his vision for Marvel. |

In my mind, it's impossible to completely agree with everything that one person says/does. There are a number of decisions that Quesada has made that I question and disagree with. I'll cite them later, if you want me to. ~W~ |

And I think many of us aren´t talking about a case-by-case analisys of those decisions, but what´s wrong with Joe Q´s way of thinking, what he understands is best for Marvel, his vision, if one wants to call it so. |

He's doing something right, though. Marvel is selling better than it has in years and has drawn in more media attention in the past five years than the past ten.

It appears that even those who are current fans and regular readers are at least occasionally severely frustrated by his vision for Marvel. I didn't mean any offence. I was simply stating that it was indeed an old theory. I actually specifically added "But interesting nonetheless" to STOP it from escalating. So there's no need for argument there. In any case, I've heard the "Old fans dislike, new fans do not" argument before... and I'm not sure I agree. Maybe but... for every new fan who defends it, there's another who goes for DC instead, and there seem to be as many older fans *online anyway* who love it as hate it. It's almost a 50/50 split across CBR for example, which is maybe the best microcosm based on size. |

Doomsie, we're gonna have trouble agreeing on how hot the sun is and how wet water is, so any conversation is fraught with peril and I feel as if people have gotten tired of reading it, so out of concern for our fellow members I'm simply trying to avoid most interactions with you.
Just imagine it's a big party and we're on two different sides of the room...
