Let me just get started, I love comics, I have shelves of comics and have always loved them my whole life, DC especially has always been there for me. Through the times of upset, love, excitement, boredem and every time between. There's something honestly beautiful about getting lost in a world of superheroes symapthising with villains sometimes and theorising about all things in it. Comics are brilliant and have made millions of happy for decades but they just don't hit anymore. I have some reasons to why comics in particular but the wider areas of DC and Marvel are being left behind and losing fans.
Woke stuff
Firstly woke stuff, comics have always mainly been for male kids, teenagers and adults and what do they wanna see? Hot women, cool superheroes and fighting. Do they wanna see a gay Tim Drake? NO. Do they wanna see wonderwomans stupid woke twin? NO. They wanna see batman and robin kick his rogues asses and wonderwoman battling to the death with supervillains.
White erasure
This is a very controversial one but it is all together true. Look at this picture of Jim and Barbara in the new batman show and this of Norman.
Do they need to be black? No. Are there perfectly good characters out there who are black being robbed of screen time? YES.
Bonus thing I hate about DC right now
Look at this in all its disgusting glory. This is disgusting and fetish material. Some freak got a job at DC just to make what he could have done on deviant art for free. Kids are impressionbable and studies show exposure to fetish material has lead to them developing these fetishes later in life. Do we want kids getting this, Me along with many other kids I am sure went to comic book shops and read comics, Imagine picking this shit up and reading it.
The final reason
Honestly I think the MAIN reason is Comics just are not as popular anymore. They are a niche growing smaller and smaller. Go to a comic con what do you see? Tonnes of manga and anime fans. This is because they are interesting in premise and are not overdone which sadly comics are really nowadays. There may not be anything that can be done to bring comics back to fruition and if I was DC I would focus on the movies as that is where the money is. Is creature commandos good? Yes. Does anyone care really past the main fans? No. Atleast give the fans what they want with the comics instead of focusing on trying to appeal to new niches. Still I never thought DC would stoop so low to making lowly fetish content.
