Also, weren't, like, all of the JLA in that ish under some sort of mind-control? So they were "slower" and less like "themselves"?

Avulsion posted:The Superman vs Batman dynamic would work a lot better if Superman was some kind of reverse vampire who got significantly weaker at night. In the Elseworlds where Batman gets Superman's powers, Nightwing banked on that, hoping the fact that Superbat was waging a non-stop war on crime on the dark side of the Earth would depower him enough that Dick could take him. Nope.

I always pictured Flash's powers from his perspective to him moving around normally while everyone else moves incredibly slow, so he'd see Slade sloooooooooowly lifting the blade while briskly jogging into it.

I suppose when someone is constantly hovering above you you have to get used to the occasional view of "Little Clark"

I guess his array of powers never included Super Ironing.

I have so many questions. Why is Superman flying spread-legged? Is the little line indicating that he was trying to backhand the Atom? Is his left fist supposed to be comically large or is his left forearm really long, thus making the fist appear larger because it's closer to us? But where is his wrist? Is he squinting because Atom is really small? Where is the Bat signal coming from?

I think Atom kicked or hit him?

That makes sense, I thought the line/Supe's face was supposed to show the Atom hitting him and he was sort of falling back from that but I think that's expecting a little too much considering who drew it.

Evil Mastermind posted:Followed closely by "and how does he keep getting work?" Anyway, his only recent work within the last few years is co-writing that Robocop mini with Steven Grant. "Keep getting work" is amazingly generous. Holy Terror was 2011, and his only other original work after that is a cover to The Creep #0 (Dark Horse, 2012) (which I'm not even sure is new art) and one of the variant covers for Detective Comics #27 (2014): redbackground fucked around with this message at 16:07 on Oct 6, 2015 |

Really? I could have sworn Holy Terror wasn't that long ago.

The only thing I remember about robocop 2 is the test trials with the robot killing itself.

Where it really goes off the page is Robocop 3, which is much closer to Miller's Robocop comic script, where suddenly it's about military mercenaries supplanting the police and forcing people off their land at the behest of the evil foreigners that have taken control of an American company and city. And there's a jetpack and robot ninjas, because those are totally necessary. Miller didn't understand Robocop was satire.

But because of how ridiculous they were portrayed. Like, oh my god, they store their robot ninja by having it meditate in a fancy zen garden
