Marvel’s Strategy Is Making Fans Angry | Comics Aficionados

Описание: What the Hell Happened to Comics? Marvel’s Tom Brevoort just admitted the publisher prefers keeping fans angry to drive engagement. Has rage-bait become Marvel’s strategy?

Marvel Comics Senior Vice President Tom Brevoort recently acknowledged that keeping fans angry drives engagement with stories and characters. For many longtime readers, that admission confirms what they’ve suspected for years about Marvel’s editorial strategy.

Over the past two decades, controversial storylines like Spider-Man: One More Day, Hydra Cap in Secret Empire, and the outing of Iceman (Bobby Drake) kept fans talking—but also pushed many readers away from Marvel Comics.

This approach has spanned multiple Marvel Editors-in-Chief including Joe Quesada, Axel Alonso, and C.B. Cebulski, while longtime senior editors like Tom Brevoort, Nick Lowe, and Jordan White continue shaping the direction of Marvel’s biggest titles.
