Admittedly I'm a huge sucker for that back and forth style that Loeb used in his Batman/Superman, but holy wow was Batman good today.

DC released a JLA Detroit Omni - for someone with no nostalgia for the era, although I’ve enjoyed plenty of comics from that time, are those comics any good? The one blog review about those indicated “not really” other than leading to JLI, but that’s only one opinion.

It has a couple of interesting bits but that's about all it has going for it, aside from the unusual team composition.

Ugh. Superman "ruling" by pontificating about an elementary school kid's conception of America, then delegating the actual work of reorganizing a planet run for eons by ultra-fascist gods into something resembling self-governance while leaving said gods just lying around to some mortal grunt, topped off with pushing Lex into the heel turn back to being his greatest nemesis? God what a crappy book. Not sure if that fact makes me want to read King write Superman more or less now e: because of course, Superfriends is the best Superman story of the decade

I find that Tom King tends to cartwheel on the line of overratedness some of the time, but he writes this...evocatively-pensive tone really drat well.

There wasn't really all that much acclaim for his Batman till after Jokes and Riddles. He's deserving this.Rhyno posted:That issue really was wonderful. So much better than the overhyped Annual. Nah.

War of Riddles and Jokes was pretty fun for the chances it took and I love the weird direction it went in. I really like the way King experiments with story structure and framing and his Batman run has been a favourite of mine.

I liked Superman. For the populous to be experiencing the concepts of truth, justice and all that for the first time in their existence, good-ol Superman giving them an adjusted elementary school pledge of allegence to live by was fitting and funny. Most of all I liked that shot of Granny jumping on Kalibak. edit: Jesus. Next week Scooby Apocalypse will be on #20. Is anyone still reading that?

I felt so clever for figuring out the villain after seeing Clark mentioning “twenty” and Bruce saying “ten”, but then he says the villains name in the same panel.

Katt posted:Comic book nerds. From the realm of normal people I implore you for your assistance. Just to briefly go back to this page, it's sort of cherry picking feats of strength of both characters. The Hulk held up a mountain in Secret Wars (where the 150 billion tons figure comes from.) But he has done other feats in his history that dwarf that. (Smashing planet's, clapping away a dimension, pushing apart a matter and anti-matter bomb etc...) Basically battleboard stuff was things I did for years in my teens. And there were crazy things to compare when you try.

Superman becomes Pooperman, every one of his powers becomes poop based and he poops out of his mouth and when you buy the comic it's covered in poop. Digital copies are banned, instead you just get poop emojis that take over your entire Comixology app. Poop comes out of your speakers, and the Trinity becomes the Turdity. Batman is Shatman, and Wonder Woman is no longer part of the Turdity because Bendis.

Just flipping through the holiday special (I'm saving it till I slog through the New Talent one from last week) and, man, those creatives. The Max Landis/Manapaul Lois and Clark story is the one I'm probably looking forward to the most.

Renee has popped up here and there but she's just a regular cop, it's not really implied that she's ever been anything else. The Vic Sage Question had a weird supernatural origin or something right when the new 52 started but I think it was widely hated and mostly forgotten at this point but someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Renee Montaya was a garbage Question. She works better as a beat cop. Hopefully Geoff resolves whatever is going on with the current new 52 Question (Rorscach?) so we can get back to the adventures of my main man Vic Sage.

GMo asked about Arkham Asylum 2 on Kevin Smith's show. Can't remember what details were previously announced, but it's with Chris Burnham, starring Damian in the future. He thinks it'll be out in 2019 for the 30th anniversary and he's looking forward to ruining the memory of the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yC-O6OMdxm0&t=5144s
