So.... Red Hood #3 was actually really good. Just putting that out there. I actually enjoyed the issue a tonne. I think their handling of Bizarro was interesting.

I think I'm ready to drop superwoman. This issue, like every issue before it, was bad, but it was also confusing as hell and worst of all just so loving boring. It's lost the entirety of everyone's character voices, has done nothing with the dramatic implications of Lois' death besides having Lanais repeat how sad she is. Everything to do with the Authors is the most convoluted horseshit ever. It is just not good. It's just a bad, bad comic book, and has lost whatever made it appealing to read at all.

The part I find funny is the use of the term Sunshine Superman. That was a nickname that showed up on Battle boards (like Wizard World, Superhero Showdown, CBR's Rumble Board etc...) as the fan name for when Superman plunged into the Sun to supercharge himself (like what happened in the end of Our World At War arc. ) It's funny to see that in the actual continuity.

60s. Morrison named him after the 60s song of the same name. Speaking of Supermen, I'm done with New Super-Man after this issue. It's fine, but it's not really holding me.

I kept up with it because it wrote such a nuanced and real-feeling Lana Lang with some really fantastic dialog, but they've already pissed away all that goodwill and turned her into a really dislikeable rear end in a top hat protagonist.

Onmi posted:So.... Red Hood #3 was actually really good. Just putting that out there. I actually enjoyed the issue a tonne. I think their handling of Bizarro was interesting. It was great indeed.   Lobdell is definitely on a roll now. Taking pointers from FE's Bizarro to build his Bizarro was a great idea, it might lack the humor of DC You's Bizarro but it stands on his own and more importantly, allowed the building of a meaningful connection between him and Jason. As more of the team dynamics are revealed, more I'm convinced the Dark Trinity will be more of a family than team or a group of friends hanging out. Jason (surprisingly) is showing a paternal streak that perfectly suits him and his constant banter with Artemis definitely brings to mind the old "like a married couple" trope. Although given Artemis' preconceptions about Bizarro, I doubt this will be a smooth sail. Black Mask continues to be a great source of entertainment, being affable and incredibly unnerving at the same time. When Jason finally caves his stupid mask in it will be so satisfying. Oh, and say what you want about Lobdell but he at least tries his best to acknowledge the work of every other writer. Although it would be real nice if the situation were reciprocal. There's not much to say about Soy and Gandini that I haven't said already. They make a perfect team and together with Lobdell they deliver one of the best looking comics DC has to offer right now. Hopefully they will stick together for a long, long time.

I have to agree, those were some pretty nice pages. Thus far not disappointed that I took the plunge. I feel like the helmet received from Black Mask, if made by Black Mask, is probably bugged and Jason having it in his cave was a risky move. I'm poor at predicting stuff so I suspect I'm completely wrong though. graybook fucked around with this message at 17:00 on Oct 13, 2016 |

It would be weird if they recognize each other, isn't Wally 10 years younger and Clark 10 years older than the last time they saw each other? Bah who cares, Post-Crisis reunion!

I'm just glad there's an artist change on Titans, if only for one issue. Look...I'm not hellbent against Booth or anything, but the simple fact is that most other artists would be better than him on most books. I think it's common knowledge that this new Superman is some weird...alternate...Superman, and that would pique Wally's interest for sure, which would prompt the meeting. It's cool to see more and more shreds of Rebirth get slowly...very goddamn slowly  ...uncovered by these characters over time.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:It was great indeed. I know ragging on RHATO is played out but, well, you did say to say what I wanted about Lobdell... Do you know what drives me crazy every time I see a preview or read a page you post here or, God forbid, actually read an issue of RHATO? It's always the same narration. Just Jason Todd harping on and on about how he died and got brought back, over and over. Lobdell has been writing this rear end in a top hat for years now, spanning multiple series. When the hell is he gonna flesh out his character beyond "I was dead now I'm not, also I'm gritty"? I mean, people poo poo talk Jason Todd all the time but worse characters have been fixed by decent writing (I mean God, doesn't Deathstroke have a series people sorta enjoy?), but Lobdell And another thing, it seems like Jason is always relating things back to himself, like holy poo poo get over yourself man. I know you trained under Batman, but he doesn't bring everything back to his parents all the time.

Yeah, Clark's been It's a little more complicated than just the fact that Wally didn't exist in this world, though. Very few of the original Titans actually existed in the Nu52 (for reasons that I...already forget, even though I read and enjoyed Titans Hunt) and just very recently revealed themselves to the world. So Clark probably thought Wally, Donna Troy, and Tempest were all missing from this world. Even now that they're back, Clark would probably assume that Wally is "from" this new world just like Donna and Garth and also doesn't remember the old world. It'll be up to Wally to reveal otherwise. Yeah it's super convoluted and labyrinthine. I kind of love it.
