Finally the return of Composite Superman we've all been waiting for. (Yes I mean that seriously)

Three issues into the silver Age Justice League trade and I've noticed something I love. I'm guessing the writer had a science textbook* while writing them and uses little science facts whenever he can. I'm not talking about anything bombastic. More along the lines of starfish having a toxic reaction to lime. Or Amazo needing to get through Green Lantern's barrier in the ocean, so he notes that there is "six-tenths of an ounce of gold to every five million cubic feet of sea water" and then uses Flash's speed to coat himself in gold to get through. *or more likely that the public education system was better in the early 20th Century than today.

Tom Scioli loving rules and everyone should read Transformers vs GI Joe. I used to think he was just a decently interesting copycat of Kirby, but honestly, he's even better than the King.

I have an incredible respect for Kirby that cannot be understated but that doesn't mean I don't think the groundwork he lays can't be improved on.

Yeah, I, too like his work more than Tom King's.

Jack Kirby is a foundational artist who shaped everything we have today. That said, he's not an infallible God, and just because he was around then to shape things doesn't mean no artist can ever be better than him.

Land is scrub tier. You either scrub your eyes after reading one of his books or scrub the jizz off of the pages once you're done.

We haven't even started the Monster Men thing. e: Even that image in there.

You know how the green lanterns ring can do a ton of stuff more than just constructs and only the bearers own lack of imagination or expectation of limitations limits that? Well Geoff Johns wrote an issue where Hal Jordan wills him president of DC, and the brass had no choice but to go with it.

I feel like only David Tennant can compete with Geoff Johns for the title of "fanboy who has had all of his dreams fulfilled"

I don't like anything I can remember of Johns' stuff that I've read, and I am kind of perpetually grumpy about his sidelining Kyle and Wally for their shittier predecessors, but I can give him the benefit of the doubt and assume this isn't completely terrible.

It's not really good or bad since he was already a major influence on the creative direction of the company, I have a hard time seeing what this is going to change.

I'm one of the few that honestly thinks that Johns' run on Teen Titans was about as good as the Wolfman/Perez-era, and I wish his run didn't get cut so short because it resulted in me wasting half a decade keeping up with that series out of the hope that a couple I liked got back together, only to then have the New 52 dropped on me right when they finally did. He's overall a good writer, though I do think he tends to be very retcon happy.

I really liked Johns Flash and JSA. Was he the JSA run with Star Girl and Johnny Wish Kid or whatever?

Johns was decent writer a couple of years ago but all the loose ends he left spread all over the N52 and the constant decline in his JL has really soured me on the guy.

You don't like anything you've read by Johns but you dislike that he sidelined Wally? That seems kind of contradictory. It's hard to be a big Wally fan without atleast liking Johns' Wally books.
