TwoPair posted:I know ragging on RHATO is played out but, well, you did say to say what I wanted about Lobdell... I mean, Lobdell has doing that through the three series. The original RHATO was all about moving Jason past his rage and mellow him out by developing an actual friendship with people outside of Batman for the first time in his live. RH/A was meant to steer him towards a more "action hero" kind of character, making him a lot more lighthearted and constantly being the one highlighting how ridiculous were the situations he and Roy got involved with. But with the failure of DC You, the focus shifted during the second arc to make him regress a little on his trust with other people. And in this iteration of RHATO is clear Lobdell is aiming for Jason to make his own family with Bizarro and Artemis. Oh and for the record, RHATO V2 has been meet with universal acclaim. quote: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. I mean why wouldn't he? This is his series and we're seeing all the events filtered through his perspective. Anyways, yesterday I bought the second and last TPB of Red Hood/Arsenal and looking through the additional material -consisting of cover sketches- I found some curious changes between the preliminary and the final versions. Issue 12's cover had a pretty unnerving reflection on Jason's helmet and Duela hanging around without the idiotic Joker's mask   Shame it was modified for the printed version because I like this sketch better.  But the cover that went through most changes is the one for issue 13  Honestly is a shame none of those ideas went further because It would've looked a lot better than the final version.  But the weirdest thing is that the cover was originally using Medri's costumes rather than Rocafort's  I mean, there's not a lot of difference with Roy but I really, really like the hoodie and I'm sad they scrapped that version.

BrianWilly posted:Yeah, Clark's been I know, my point is did he just go check to see if Wally exists? I guess that'd be a Superman to do, go check on all your old Justice League buds, but then he would've seen the other Wally West and probably assumed that was this universe's version or whatever. That'd actually probably be the giveaway for Clark if there was one. "Wait, there's a red headed speedster calling himself The Flash running around? Last I checked that Wally didn't exist!" I think the best person to put two and two together is Batman or maybe Barry. They're the only ones who are simultaneously aware that Superman and Wally both claim to be from a previous universe that was similar but different. Wally did kind of make a big show of himself in front of Bruce, after all. Two Tone Shoes fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Oct 14, 2016 |

Pretty sure none of the crossovers (at least since the N52) have been in continuity. e: They should with the Lumberjanes/Gotham Academy one. Guest spots from the Lumberjanes would fit great. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 23:00 on Oct 14, 2016 |

the latest flash was a pretty good improvement on the previous issue! Godspeed didn't bruta-murder everyone in iron heights like I was expecting the book to show, and with Meena (and everyone else that was a speedster from the storm) can still tap into the speed force if they want to., I'm going to keep on reading it.

Tip: There's a comic review aggregate site to save you link hunting. http://comicbookroundup.com/comic-books/reviews/dc-comics/red-hood-and-the-outlaws-(2016) It's definitely being well reviewed. I'm very happy for you and Jason, D_T

bobkatt013 posted:We did and it turned into his blog It turned into half of his blog. It was missing the anime titties. Between the fairly decent review scores from the above post and people besides DT saying they liked it in this very thread I think it's okay to consider the possibility that it's an okay book. None of the pages he has shown have particularly engaged me but to me Jason Todd is already a pretty immediate point against it.

Okay, so I've been out of the comics loop since the Superman: Birthright retcon years ago. Occasionally I've picked a few trades here and there, but it's been a long time since I've tried to navigate individual issues. I recently went out and picked up a large chunk of the Rebirth stuff. Mostly the Superman family and Justice League along with the Darkseid War and the last few issues of Nu52 Superman so I knew where Rebirth was jumping off from. But DC still loves having their continuity all over the goddamn place so I'm trying to figure out what order to read Action Comics/Superman/Justice League. They don't appear to be connected really so far, but a few odd things seem out of order. Like in the first Rebirth issue of AC, Post-Crisis Superman officially reveals himself to the world. Then in JL#1 he fights with the new League in public for the first time. But in Superman #1 he's both in hiding still, yet working with the League? Contradictory. Tried just going by street date, but all the issues only have the month/year so all I can tell by that is what issues were released the same month.

I think the League knows there is a new Superman around but he hasn't officially joined them yet. The main thing in Superman #1 isn't that he's working with the Justice League but that Batman and Diana are specifically concerned about his son's emerging powers. Even as he's working in public fighting with the League they're not really friends yet, as Trinity is exploring now. Trinity isn't bi-weekly though, so that's gonna get weird as they get chummier in Justice League stories. I'm honestly not reading Action or Justice League because they're not that great IMO. The best answer I can give you is don't worry about it that much. Little contradictions are going to happen. It's more important that the good stories 'happen' than making sure they fit in with the mediocre or bad stories.

Continuity has never been DC's priority to begin with, so I'd probably just burn myself out again trying to make it all orderly. I'm really enjoying Rebirth though. Tried to get back in with the beginning of Nu52 but lost interest pretty quick. Though if I'm being honest the big draw is Post-Crisis Supes being back. I read nearly every issue of his from the relaunch in the 80's until Birthright. I even powered through the Electric powers arc. So seeing him back in action tickles the nostalgia centers of my brain.

You should pick up Convergence Superman and Superman: Lois and Clark to see him transitioning worlds, Jon being born and discovering his powers, and Clark's sweet dad beard. They're pretty good.

Nothing lasts forever. They double shipped books for a while back in the Breyfogle days of Batman, it'll eventually go back to single monthly issues. But for the time being, Rebirth is making them a huge amount of money, so I'd imagine it's going to last a while.

Greg Rucka seemed to suggest on Twitter that Wonder Woman would be double-shipping through issue 24, so roughly one year from the debut. I won't be surprised if once some of the Wave 2 titles start shipping, they announce the tapering off of the double shipping and some more new titles that would make up a Wave 3 to fill the spots left open.
