Loki said it was Loki messing with him. But then, Loki said that while Pym had him captured, so it could be argued that Loki was just trying to mindfuck Pym (cause that's what he does). I don't think it ever got a straight answer because very shortly Thor showed up to bust Loki out because Thor's dumb like that.

drat, I don't know if it's just because my introduction to Klarion was Seven Soldiers, but it just feels like no one else can write him properly after Morrisson got his greasy fingers on him.

Anything should be better than his treatment in the Justice League cartoons, right?

I think there was one decent appearance with him in the original Batman animated series (also: Etrigan), but that's it.

Hearing "Klarion the Witch Boy" without the "bum bum BUM" in the middle just sounds wrong to me.

I'm sure it's more of a "Building Stomp" but yeah, that's a giant robot curb stomp. The transformers comics have been pretty good lately.

It doesn't involve limited edition toy prices or long essays on how "he" really is a gender-neutral pronoun if you actually think about it, so why would they? :v:

Transformers: Autocracy, Monstrosity and Primacy are all really drat good with great art. I was going to pass on Autocracy when it first started because I'd gotten so burned out on bad transformers comics thanks to the flood of movie tie in crap. But something told me I should give it a shot and drat it all three of them haven't been great stories about the early days of the War of Autobot Aggression. :wink:

Autocracy is set after the events of Megatron Origin but I don't really think it's required reading before jumping in.

PG is just below Superman as well, in a nebulous ill-defined way. She's either on Wondy's level or just below/above it. Either way Diana knows how to fight and has been trained since she was a little clay girl, so PG is about to get her rear end whupped.

Everyone is nebulously below Superman in strength in the DC Universe, weather it be Pre or Post Crisis. I can easily remember different comics which label Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, Martian Manhunter and Orion as being "number 2 in strength, behind Superman."

In fact (the early 2000's on battle boards) it got to a stage where people tried to create a top ten list of the strongest characters in the DC with Superman at number 1, and about five different people tied for second place.
Around then I joked that the only way that DC would ever settle the issue would be by releasing a top ten list where Superman occupied all ten spots. And that would end it since no one would care who was the 11th strongest character in the DC Universe. Oh how I laughed.

Then afterwards Infinite Crisis came out and we had a Superman running around, alongside an Earth 2 Superman, a Kingdom Come Superman, a Superboy Prime and it started to seem like you would be able to come up with a list of ten Superman's for DC's strength chart.

I could have sworn I read somewhere that Supergirl is supposed to be stronger than him??

I believe Jeph Loeb claimed that in some "she's been super-exposed to yellow sun rays for her whole life" thing when he reintroduced her.

And I recall a page of Diana kicking Power Girl's butt while criticising her for not learning to actually fight and relying on her Kryptonian powers. Is that from the same issue?

I think it's usually explained as being that Supergirl doesn't hold her full power back like Superman has taught himself to, so she only seems like she's stronger than him.
