Johns used him perfectly in JSA for a very long run but since then nobody has quite been able to figure out what to do with him.

Captain Marvel has a amazing design. It uses all three primary colors, the Hala star makes a good symbol that blends with the rest of the outfit, and that sash is an amazing accessory that breaks up all the blue below her chest. A+ costume, and there's not a drat thing that would, or should, be changed for the movie.

It's a really great update of Mar-Vell's suit as well as standing on it's own. Looks way better without the helmet though.

Even though it kinda looks like porn fetish wear, I still maintain her old costume was about 30 times more iconic than her current one. But hey, what do I know.

I like it as well and I think they could've improved/fixed it if they gave her a pair of pants like She-Hulk has occasionally.

I liked Black Adam best in the 90s-2000s where he was the semi batshit insane ruler of his own country.

Like all good things in comics, it had to end though :(

Also, why does Bruce have amnesia? Is it like REAL amnesia or is it just a "OH WOW I SURE DON'T KNOW WHO I AM EVEN THOUGH I AM APPARENTLY IDENTICAL TO THIS MILLIONAIRE PLAYBOY WHO EVERYONE KNOWS, HUH I MUST HAVE LED A STRANGE LIFE TO BE COVERED HEAD TO TOE IN SCARS AND BURNS. BOY THIS IS AWKWARD GUESS I'LL GO ~NOT~ FIGHT CRIME WINK WINK" kinda thing?

He straight up died, but got brought back to life (and possibly completely healed, not sure) because he was in the vicinity of a proto-Lazarus pit. It's unclear how, but he genuinely has no recollection of anything Batman-related.

However, Alfred does know, and he's chosen to not say anything about the Batman thing to protect Bruce.

One of the last issues had a long discussion between Alfred and Superman where Alfred laid out in ultra-specific detail how the Bruce Clark knew is no longer there, and there was no coming back.

So uh, it'll be about four issues before he comes back.

I like it the original Mar-Vell suit too. Very retro, especially when compared to the primary colored duds he was famous for.

Why did he think it was a good idea to let Batman work at an orphanage? He's going to have all the kids dressed up in stupid costumes and fighting psychopaths within a month.
