Ah, Superman with a t-shirt and buzz cut. Just what we needed. EDIT: Oh, I didn't even notice at first that he apparently just finished beating someone bloody.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:June will bring new costumes for Superman and Wonder Woman So.......the current costume tweak is being scrapped?? Hmm well now his costume isn't segments and he has pants so it's a win I guess. I do like how the shield is pretty much an update to the old Superman cartoon serials. Are the June solicits still saying he has a new power set or depowered or something? And yeah he looks like Connor when he was his moodiest especially if he just punched someone/something into paste.

Pak said something about how, at the last creative summit, all of the Superman writers talked out a general thread that will be followed for the next year across the super-books, even when they aren't directly crossing over. The timing of that "year" thing says to me, as usual, look for him to get back into the full suit right around the time Batman vs Superman comes out. And I'd place money that Bat-Bunny will be gone by then too. In the meantime, t-shirt Superman vs Bat-bunny sounds really interesting so I'm onboard for a bizarre short-term story. I'm glad Bart is back with the Titans, it's clear that Wally isn't going to get to do poo poo for a long while at the glacial pace Venditti is moving, so they may as well put things back as they were. I might actually start picking up TT again, now that Kon's back too. Also, the Harley Quinn cover ripping off We Are Robin made me laugh far more than it should've.

I'm digging the poo poo out of this new Green Arrow costume. That new Wonder Woman costume just doesn't work for me at all, get rid of the pauldrons and the hilarious katars and it might be alright.

It's hard to see the actual costume past Brett Booth's terrible loving art, but it looks alright far as I can tell. It certainly is a Flash costume.

I'm all for removing trenchcoats. Trenchcoats may have been common back in the 80s, but nobody in Britain today wears them except for Time Lords.

The domino mask is probably because that's what he has in the TV show, though. He's been rocking goggles mostly since the New 52. And yeah, the Flash design is obviously going for the TV look. Also, heh, Maps and Damian make a cute couple.

I think I've well and fully lost any capacity to care about this sort of change. I can rationally deduce that the spiked gauntlet thing is "bad" looking, I just don't have any emotional response to it at all. It's just going to change again when the movie comes out, anyway.

I hate that Finch Wonder Woman costume almost as much as I love the new Fabok Wonder Woman. This look is the one they're using in Justice League, which I assume is the look they'll use any time she makes a guest appearance and will be the "default" look for merchandising and such.

I can't wait for Damian in Gotham Academy   Bill Sienkiewicz cover for Gotham by Midnight. That looks a lot different than what I'd assume for Bill Sienkiewicz. Maybe I haven't seen anything of his from the last decade or two. Looks more like Andrea Sorrentino. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 01:09 on Mar 13, 2015 |

I'm sorry if this gets asked a lot, but what series have been worth reading since the relaunch? I just sort of lost interest in anything that wasn't Animal Man or Wonder Woman a few months after the new-52 started, but I wouldn't mind diving into DC again before all this Convergence/Divergence stuff.

For me, Greg Pak's Action Comics (from 25) and Batman/Superman, Jeff Lemire's Green Arrow (from #17) and Justice League United/Canada, Charles Soule's Swamp Thing (from #19) and Red Lanterns (from #21), Nu-Batgirl (from #25) Gotham Academy, Grayson, Justice League 3000!, GI Zombie (really) and most of all, Multiersity.

Huge huge ups to DeMattias' Phantom Stranger series. It's a perfect blend of supernatural occult, human drama, and the occasional twinge of gallows humor. Don't let the Judas retcon scare you away, it's a fantastic book.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Flash is also getting a new costume Don't know why they got rid of the white logo background. Barry's eyes shouldn't be closed off by his costume. I also do not get why there are a dozen lightning bolts tagged onto his suit. When you draw him in any comic he's literally always surrounded by lightning, you don't need to stitch that design into his costume and it's like final fantasy belts -- you're just strapping poo poo everywhere for no reason. I don't know this poo poo is just so ugly. It's not like Flash looked good with Booth drawing it in the first place, though, so it's mostly just squeezing out another turd on the ever growing poo poo heap that The Flash has become since the creative team change. One of DC's worst books in every way.
