Do christcucks really?
And it was passed down to them from God's chosen people, who still do it to this day, practically at an industrial scale at very high levels of society too.
This is just some unstable weirdo who has found a place in Christianity because the religion is thoroughly degenerated and too weak/unwilling to have any discrimination. Hardly representative of the teachings of Christ.
Those kinds of movies are known for selling lots of products related to the film. People might not even read them, but they'll still buy it because it's a popular franchise.
>Do any comic book fans want something like this?
Some might do. I would say people who were into Marvel stuff already had these in some compilation. Some others might buy it for the collection factor. But these seem to be aimed at the casual reader, as they are simply like a "best of" album, not really a thorough compilation. >Are compilations like this normal?
Yes, very normal. Usually older comics are reprinted in compilations known as omnibus (which tend to be rather pricy depending on the rarity). These compilations usually include a author's entire run in a particular comic (like Grant Morrison's Batman which is sold in three omnibus volumes).

Yeah I figured you'd have their entire run and not just a selection
Oh well, Penguin know what they're doing
>Who owns Penguin now? Some arm of Disney I’m guessing.
Penguin is owned by the German publishing conglomerate
Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA
Bertelsmann owns a ridiculous number of publishers and publishing imprints( 250+)
Their publishing revenue for 2021 was just under €19 billion.
Bertelsmann also owns BMG ( that company that runs the CD subscription clubs).
Other major publishers owned by Bertelsmann are Random House and Springer.
Bertelsmann also owns a printing group that does a large amount of private printing of books in Germany. ( they seem to be able to due sewn bindings well)
Bertelsmann wan founded in the early 1800s, but the vast expansion happened after WWII.
>Raised in a strict Protestant family, Mohn earned his German baccalaureate (Abitur) at the Evangelisch Stiftische Gymnasium Gütersloh in 1939 and went on to complete his Reichsarbeitsdienst, the official labor service of the Third Reich. Afterwards, he volunteered for military service with the Luftwaffe, originally with the aim of becoming a pilot. After serving in an air-base command on the Western Front, Mohn was stationed with an anti-aircraft unit, advancing in rank from private to sergeant, and in 1942 achieving the rank of lieutenant. From France, via Italy, his regiment was moved to Tunisia. On 5 May 1943, Mohn became a U.S. prisoner of war, and in mid-June, he was relocated to the United States, to Camp Concordia, an internment center in Kansas for German prisoners of war. According to Mohn's accounts, he was profoundly influenced by this experience; as one example, he began reading American management literature for the first time. >In January 1946, Reinhard Mohn returned to Gütersloh. As his oldest brother, Hans Heinrich Mohn, had already passed on in 1939, and Sigbert Mohn, his second-oldest brother, was still a prisoner of war, he initially opted for an apprenticeship as a bookseller, and later joined his father's business. His father, Heinrich Mohn, as a supporting member of the SS, and due to his financial contributions to other National Socialist organizations, among other issues, had come under the scrutiny of British occupation authorities. In April 1947, he transferred his publishing license to his son Reinhard, who managed the publishing business from then on.
what's the narrative now
how will you cope
Spiderman is culturally significant and well-written enough that I can understand why it's a Penguin Classic. But fricking Black Panther and Captain America? Are they just there for the woke pandering?

Do christcucks really?
>Christianity in 2022
christcucks have been raping young boys for two fricking thousands years. nothing special about that in any year
Meanwhile Fedoratards are busy encouraging said boys to go drag and strip in gaybars. Takes one to know one!

It's pretty sad considering this homosexual was probably molested as a child
>The offended Capeshit fedora cuck cries out as you make fun of the only genre he reads.
Fedoras are cool, frick you.
stop browsing the telosbound discord
You caught my bait.
Who doesn’t like to pretend to be moronic?
Because the films make billions.
most of the capeshit movie audience doesn't give a shit about 1960s comics
Those kinds of movies are known for selling lots of products related to the film. People might not even read them, but they'll still buy it because it's a popular franchise.
Especially if it's sold in a way that looks like a real book. "Look guys, I have real books on my shelf! Look how smart I am!"
That's kind of cool imo but idk anything about comic books
I'm a comic expert. AMA.
Do any comic book fans want something like this?
Are compilations like this normal?

If you're going to buy one get Spider-Man. Captain America and Black Panther are shit.

Bertelsmann group, so the Germans.

Well it's wrong because the CEO is Catholic.
Do you know how companies work? The CEO is accountable to the board, dumbass.

what's the narrative now
how will you cope
the Mohn family are majority shareholders btw
I don't get it, are they comic books or prose
Comic books
Money, of course.
It infantilizes the public.
The onions cucks of today continued to read comics into their adulthood.
$$$
Adorno was right you know

Captain America is iconic. Black Panther probably is woke pandering, to avoid criticism, he isn't really mainstream to make them money.
There is nothing new under the sun.
Ah you're one of those.
