Selachian posted:Back when Giffen and DeMatteis were writing Justice League, there were a lot of fan complaints about writing characters out of character for the sake of jokes -- like writing Captain Marvel (Shazam), who allegedly has the Wisdom of Solomon, as rather dim but relentlessly nice. Since Dennis O’Neil has written him Captain Marvel has Billy’s mind and he is not a separate personality.

Gaz-L posted:Oh, actually, here's a question, during my recent Wonder Woman binge there was a part during, I think, Simone's run, where the Doomsday-alike villain does something to Donna with the lasso and it makes her freak out and attack Diana, blaming her for Terry and their kids dying... Obviously it's meant to be a delusion, but if there any reason that would make sense to her in-story? Was Diana around at the time they died? If I remember correctly it’s the why didn’t you save my family?

The best thing about the crossing was it lead to avengers forever in which it said everything from that poo poo was space phantoms. Avengers forever is so so good and it’s a shame songbird ain’t in anything.

Skwirl posted:I thought it was Chameleon's scheme? or did they do it twice? I'm talking about the 90s time they did it. Chameleon was just a henchman. It was all Harry beyond the grave. Who knows what the original plan was as the clone saga was about to begin. It’s very possible the original plan was for them to be the actual parents but then they decided clone time so had to get rid of them

Lobok posted:It just didn't sit right emotionally. He had a cool death but then finding out it was his plan all along it felt like we were supposed to go "oh right, gently caress that guy I guess?" I always felt more pity. It’s a reminder how hosed in the head he was when he was in goblin mode and the damage his father did. He did a good man, but he still did a bunch of crazy poo poo in his last days

Gaz-L posted:On this topic, I got around to reading the Marvel Pride thing recently, and I feel like they're still not quite willing to make the jump with Kitty/Kate. There's that story with Prodigy and Speed in the special and Prodigy is relating that being able to experience Kitty's feelings of attraction for Colossus and realise they were very similar to his own was a big part of him realising he was bi, but like, it seems like an obvious extension of that beat to bring up her being into girls and him also feeling an echo of his own experience there too. Clive Reston who was Shang-chi ally, father was hinted to be bond and his great uncle Sherlock Holmes.

I AM GRANDO posted:I’m reading old Spiderman comics and noticed that issue 181 is just a recap of Spiderman’s origin and an introduction to the current supporting cast. I guess it’s because they figured that the readership aged out every so often and the new kids needed a recap. Are there other issues like that? I’d enjoy comparing different takes on a task like that across 20 years or so. There used to be a lot like that and I am pretty sure it’s a way to get an issue out monthly
