The WGA strike has been ongoing for over 100 days. Production in Hollywood has come to a standstill, prompting some comic creators to ask if they should go on strike as well for better contract terms. Aside from the lack of a comic creators union, there is also the pesky issue of Marvel and DC Comics being able to raid their back catalog for reprint material that is more popular with readers than their current comics...

Comicsgate remains the bogeyman for the mainstream comic book industry to this day, with unheard-of writers trying to crusade against Comicsgate in order to seek mainstream relevance again. At the same time, these SJW writers make up stories of Comicsgaters trying to get into the mainstream, but is the mainstream comics industry still as appeal as it once was?

After years of sub-standard working conditions, Marvel's VFX employees are voting to unionize. Stacked on top of the writers' and actors' strike, is this the end of fast food-style entertainment from Disney? Will Disney use this opportunity to reboot the entire MCU?

Fans are demanding that Marvel Comics consult with Muslim women before writing Ms Marvel, but only if they consult the 'right kind' of Muslims. However, Marvel wants Ms Marvel to be seen as their all-important Muslim representation in their universe. Is Marvel actually anti-LGBTQIA+, considering how Islam looks upon homosexuality and transexuality?

A new DC Comics event came out in May, with several one-shots having came out then. None of these titles made it into the top 50 comic titles sold in June. Are fans finally saying they are done with DC Comics? With Marvel titles appearing far more often on the sales charts than DC titles, it may just be the end of the road for DC!

After almost 20 years in development limbo, the live-action He-Man movie has been dropped by Netflix. Surely this has nothing to do with their multiple failed attempts at the franchise, right?

After years of gaslighting and trying to convince the comic industry that things are better than ever, mainstream comics journalists are starting to admit that readers are shifting towards manga and Webtoon, and that the comic industry is in desperate need of a new 'Saga'-type title. But do creators have the incentive to make their own comics with declining retail sales? And where is the slate of new talent from DC Comics and Marvel?
