the crossroads of a fanfic writer and an actual canon writer, the medium in question is comics. Let me start off by saying I don't usually care too much for fanfics, as many of them have a tendency to hit on several tropes which I find either boring, painful to watch, sometimes even downright disgusting(looking at you slash, wing, and Mary Sue, note that Tvtropes.org is my "go to" place for tropes and entertainment when it comes to tv, books, video games, and comics which aren't really all that entertaining. So god forbid you are unfamiliar with those tropes feel free to look them up.)
I have recently begun to come to the same conclusion about comic writers that Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw (of
[link] fame) has come to about the masses. Now: to my point, recent comics have basically managed to corner almost every character in their collective universes into sever VERY predictable routes.
Some of this dross is massively out of character for the characters in question too, for example, Captain America would not immediately grab his shield and start building an army to fight the Superhuman Registration Act (here to referred to as SRA)after all Captain America is considered the living representative of the American Spirit, which includes being willing, if not happy, to sit at a table and negotiate to find a satisfactory resolution, for example the SRA could have been restricted to a program designed to recruit and train superhumans, but it wouldn't reveal their identities or any inherent weaknesses (like bullets or water if you are a low-grade fire/earth elemental), basically it trains every superhuman and then hires the ones who wish to fight, so that they can be assigned to a state where they will serve the people. Alas Captain America couldn't be written to do that as it's anti-climactic, but who cares? There could be better smarter stories written in it's stead.
The crossroads in particular is to seek out a job with a comic company as a quality control guy, or I can sit around and write scripts for better comics all day, until someone notices and picks me up. I really don't like the sound of that.
