There's no such thing as industry plants in comics, because literally every character after superman is an industry plant.

The original in Superboy and Aquaman wasn't a plant but the new versions in the suicide squad are.

Again, its literally the case. Every character is created becuase the industry wants to hit a market, or a writer thinks a specific thing hasnt been done yet and woudl be interesting. There arent individual comics that just pop up out of nowhere.

Talent can be industry plants, not characters in fiction lmao.

It's a running gag in Kamala's comics, but it only ever happened once for Miles. So yes.
I think this was before they officially knew each other's secret identities.

Every single legacy character. I could be wrong but I always felt it hard to imagine writers going up editorial and pitching that they want to replace some long established hero. Most of the time that has to be an idea that editorial pushes out and writers volunteer to do.

Honestly how often do you think these guys were made with the intention of a praising someone who is still active? I don't remember Carol Danvers dying before tomorrow existed I wasn't Captain Marvel do not in comic books for like decades before Miss Marvel became Captain Marvel and this is the comic book industry sometimes someone dies but they're never meant to be permanent unless it's Uncle Ben . did you honestly think Hulk was supposed to be killed off and never come back for someone who's a minority to replace him permanently in the comics?

It's one of the reasons why Superman will never be as popular nor more popular than Batman.

How can a Marvel character even be an industry plant? We know right from the start that they're owned by a major corporation.

"Industry plant" is just a buzzword for "I don't like [thing] but want to imply my opinion has moral weight to it." People who work in an industry are part of that industry and the industry promotes itself. To not qualify for the accusation of industry plant an artist would need to self-publish using their own equipment, distribute outside standard channels, not promote themselves, and not make any money.

It works in the movie, book and music industry because nepotism and regular people get turned into artists through ghost writing

In comics is so incredibly retarded, it doesn’t make any sense. How can a fictional character be an industry plant

It really doesn't as that's the normal way the industry functions.

Does Mantis count? The original I mean. Massive creator pet that the writer kept trying so damn hard to make the her out to be the most important character in the history of marvel.

Then the writer leaves, she exits the team, and she pretty much fades away til the MCU decides to use her name for what may as well be an OC.
