Manga is overrated

[Villi1997 1,832]

why, because comic books, one of the greatest things of media, is overshadowed by it, i only watch anime but i do not read manga for the undeniable fact that comic books are overshadowed by it. (did i just say it 2 times, yes i did)

It all comes to a matter of what someone likes/dislikes.

The only popular comic books I can think of are the Marvel/DC things... and I was never a huge fan of most American media

[AntonioKHT 449]

Well, manga have a different and more unique art style, most people think it's superior in a way.

Also, most anime make side series, that are not in the manga, so that it doesn't catch up (it has a name for it, but I honestly can't remeber), which makes manga readers kinda pissed (something about having a somewhat lower quality in story, which is true, but people really exagerate)

And I forgot, but like FireRubies said, Marvel and DC are very famous, and are not overshadowed by manga.

[Protoman 1,974]

you mean western comics right

because manga is really just comics from Japan

(cough stop making it like some sort of firetrucking contest cough they can both be good or shit cough)

[_The Door To Light_ 1,507]

Considering how iconic Marvel and DC are, I think it can be quite the opposite sometimes.

[Dracozombie 4,554]

You're dismissing an entire medium as "overrated" just because you think it overshadows your favored medium?  And you're cool with anime but refuse to read manga just because you think western comics don't get the attention you think they deserve?  Um, okay.

[Geralt 4,874]

Hmm Im not much into manga or comic books .-.

Well that doesn't make sense in any way, shit, or form.

That's not grammar, it's a comparison.

So let's look a different style in comics

 

1) David Aja

 

2) Sean Murphy 

 

3) Dwayne Cooke

4) Ramon Perez

 

5) Skottie Young

 

6) Jeff Lemire

 

7) Alex Ross

 

8) paolo rivera

 and i can keep going with artist that use different styles.

 

but you know what they all look the same

what do you mean overrated?
It's normal to me look the the scene look just like the same

[Hei 3,233]

I don't think it's more "unique" or "superior", they both have great art.

Manga:

 

Comics:

 

Both are unique and intense~

The comic market is pretty small and niche thing.

 

 

I also want it to be noted that their are more western comic publishers than DC and Marvel there's also Image, Dark Horse, IDW, Monkey Brain, Archaia, Oni Press and some others.

 

Comics and Manga's are both swell.

Good point.

[Dave 5,715]

I'm generally not a fan of the manga art style (mostly due to the exagerated proportions and expressions), but that's more a personal taste than anything. I guess it ultimately boils down to what floats your boat in art.

[Ultima Weapon 71]

Neither are better or worse or overrated, is a matter of taste, both schools have their strong and weak points, and both have a lot of different artists with unique styles.

 

 I personally love both of them.

Filler and/or Gaiden maybe?
