Jesus Christ, could DC fire Lobdell already?

It's ok to give up on DC. Try it, you'll feel better.

What I'm gathering from all of this is evidence for this issue, if not this period, of Power Girl to be discussed in the Worst Runs thread.

It was, from the start, pretty explicitly a cheesecake book. It should have been totally awful, but Connor managed to make it funny and fun, mainly because PG was almost always the smartest person in the room and never helpless. Yes, the sexual politics of comic books makes it problematic, but in a vacuum it was a harmless funnybook.
There should have been a companion series of sexy shirtless Nightwing or something. Although this might have run while Bruce was mostly dead.

Those were real arrows. Kurosawa was a dick sometimes.
Edit: Oh you didn't show the full scene. The ones stuck in his body were not real, but there were actual archers shooting at poor Tishiro Mifune.

Harley owns in that series. Too bad DC hates good things and only lets this fly because it's an elseworld video-game tie in and therefore doesn't really 'count.'

It's almost like the comic isn't aimed at grown-rear end men anymore.

Counterpoint: DC hasn't made a real effort to sell comics to kids in loving forever.

I mean, was it the JMS issues, or was it from one of the issues after JMS quit?

After. It's an optimistic statement. JMS's run was pretty much depressed smug supes in the worst way.

Yeah Tony was a monstrous person as written during Civil War. Pretty much everyone was, mind you, that's the problem with 'smash your action figures together' storylines.

I hate the metaphor of mutants-as-minorities. Black people can't gently caress up fundamental forces of nature no matter what the KKK might think. Mutants absolutely can. Fear and terror of them is the only sane response, or at least it would be in a universe without people like Captain America or Iron Man or whatnot.

The X-Men suffer from the same problem as Batman: They're better used if you pretend they exist in their own pocket universe isolated from other superheroes.
