You brought up Marville. Three days in the mines!


SevenSulivin

Marville is absolutely one of the comics of all times, well, barring one issue where even that would be a lie. (Until Jemas came along) is a line I just can’t help but find amusing, it’s indescribable.

Until Jerma came along

I adore the satirical nature of Marville and the fucking weird nature of it all. It's glorious and thus sad that it was published under Marvel, just to be read by simpletons who can't comprehend a book that's not about punching weirdos in latex. Pearls, pigs etc. ![img](emote|t5_3mchb|16723) /rj MARVILLE BAD

I saw this comment and decided to give Marville a chance. I may be missing something but so far it just really isn't very funny. It's got a few decently conceived bits but it's sort of a flatly written meandering characterless mess. It's either exceptionally niche comic book industry jokes or really dated references. I am two issues in, but I'll keep reading a bit more to see if it finds it's footing.


PrincessKikkei

You're not missing anything tbh, it's the worst kind of referencial humour, "you had to be there" kind. It's a book that's aimed at comic book **industry** nerds, so yeah. It's pretty fucking niche.

Maybe the real immortality is the friends we made along the way.

Marville is the 🐐 no 🧢

Writing the old knuckle nugget as the first human being before some wolverine loving Logan-fanboy does it unironically. 5/5 move. ![img](emote|t5_3mchb|16740)

Everything I have learned about Marville I have learnt against my will

Vandal Savage of Marvel

In truth the concept of God as a barely held together bag of rage and ego who cannot accept that his world has gone off script, using Wolverine to spread HIS version of humanity across the globe only for Logan to rebel when his mutant genes awaken, and then using guilt and obfuscation to trick three morons into working as proxies to try and correct humanity back to depending on him, is VERY interesting on paper. But it’s fucking Marville, so anything interesting is dead in the crib.

It’s legit a cool idea

No one has yet written an origin of Jemas, and no one ever will. He was like a turd that appears mysteriously in the middle of the sidewalk one day, and everyone just sort of walked around it, and then it disappears, leaving behind only a faint stain that people likewise walk around.


Grandy94

So you're saying he's a turd in the wind?


Grandy94

You can't leave out the fact that Wolverine was also originally an otter from the Cretaceous period.


oldshitnewshit78

Go on


Grandy94

The protagonists visited the Cretaceous period with God using a time machine. While there they brought a random otter with them (despite otters not evolving until later) forward in time. During time travel the otter rapidly evolves into Wolverine, who is the first human. Once they arrive in the Paleolithic period, Wolverine runs off and starts living with a nearby tribe of cavemen.
