Marvel Reaches Out to New Demographic With 'Bro Comics'

 

 

As for the stories, Quesada promises tales of Marvel's toughest heroes "pounding brewskis, wearing sick gold chains, playing foosball, and generally being bros." Liefeld's story finds Cable and Wolverine rating the women of the Marvel Universe on a "marry, f--k, kill" scale, while Howard Chaykin delivers another one of his patented 1950s throwback tales that absolutely no one is sick of. Look for a Deadpool tale (penned by "I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell" author Tucker Max) where the "merc with a mouth" is assigned to protect "Jersey Shore" cast member DJ Pauly D from crazed groupies. "The honeys of South Beach are all up in DJ Pauly's bizness," Quesada says. "Luckily, Deadpool is there to take the 'grenades' for his bro. And also actually throw some grenades."

April Fools?

[Mr 9.8]

Surely this is a April fool's joke?

[DiceX]

I've got nothing.

 

 

[Marvelfangirl]

God I hope so

[Mr 9.8]

God I hope so

What? that this is a joke, or are you really looking forward to this?

[MagnetoWasRight]

This better be an April fools joke...like, seriously.

Better be a joke

 

I'm guessing there's a 50/50 shot either way.

Remember, this is the same "House of Ideas" that gave us the Norman Osborne/Gwen Stacey love affair.

WTH were they thinking?

 

And these are the same people that are going to bring back Marvelman

The key to a good April Fools joke is that there has to be a hint of believability.

[Flaming_Telepath]

It's a real shame that this isn't true.

 

It's got to be better than the utter turd that they're currently inflicting on the public?

Ehh...

[The Troll King]

That's obviously a J. Scot Campbell drawing so he's involved with the "joke"

[bounty_coder]

I was wondering how long this would unravel until someone noticed the Fool's Day tag on the story
