Comic book critics ironically are much like the very comics they criticize.

That is, they go nowhere, instead choosing to regurgitate the same old status quo day in day out.
They offer no critique that is actually meaningful, because this would cause actual change in the industry, or atleast the culture of critique.
And on occasion they celebrate that which is not worthy of celebration. Just as the hero in a comic book will time and time again trust in the sudden reformation of a villain who will obviously return to crime, comic book critics trust in the continous and never geninune reformations of the comic book industry.

They're not actually interested in delivering any worthwhile criticisms. If they did, they would run out of things to critique very quickly. They avoid tackling the real meat and potatoes of the issues in the comic book industry and instead post daily or weekly rants about either the same old tired issues, or issues that are completely irrelevant.

But the biggest sin, is that they don't actually do anything constructive. All they do is whine, and whine lazilly at that.
If I cared about comics half as much as they do, I wouldn't make a youtube channel bitching about it, I'd network with creators, make my own comics company, and put my critiques into action.
I wouldn't want to make 1000 videos, I'd want at most to make 10 videos that completely and totally shut up the industry for good.
