True, the burgerland cummicks industry is a megacorporate shithole where small companies get bullied out of the physical market place.
It's ludicrous that Marvel has never gotten into legal trouble over it.

Imagine supermarkets being like that. Unilever straight up telling you they wouldn't sell to you anymore if you stock honey from a local beekeeper or Mars pulling all the pet food if you stock a small regional brand.
That shit just simply wouldn't fly.

They did. They argued that if the court forced Diamond (their distribution arm) to break up the entire industry would crash because there's no alternative supplier. The judge ruled in their favour.

You got a source for this?

The reason there is no alternative supplier is because of Marvel in the first place. Marvel went and bought the third largest distributor in the '90s, this led to the second, fourth and fifth guys going out of business because Marvel Comics were like 90% of their sales, and then Marvel's distributor had to fold because a lot of these comic shops couldn't afford to deal with two distributors just to get all the comics people were interested in buying.

The problem is that they force stores to carry shit they don't want. Want Spoderman? Gotta take all this other trash as well!

Certainly not in Current Year after all the shit the industry has pulled.

So the first episode of Ultraman Trigger Warning is finally upon us.


It honors the Show and early Heisei eras by having defeated monsters explode into chunky salsa, which is always a delight.
It also honors various porn spoofs by featuring a pretty kinky mud wrestling scene. Can only recommend.
