Rochallor posted:Are there any examples of heroic characters permanently turning villainous? Going in the opposite direction there's too many examples to count, but I can't think of a single example of a good guy permanently going bad, or even for an extended amount of time (say, 10 years). Closest I can think of is Jason Todd, and I haven't been following DC stuff for a while but I think he's more of an antihero these days. Maxwell Lord and The Chief.

Pastry of the Year posted:If healing factors in comics fascinate you, check out Wolverine: The Best There Is. It's a miniseries that pulls some ocean trench-deep cuts up for supporting characters, and it's deeply weird and gory and a bit shaggy around the edges but I got a huge kick out of the ideas and situations in it. This entire comic is absolutely psychotic and is a must read for Wolverine bullshit.

Cubone posted:Not quite on topic, because they are heroes, but issue 6 of Gillen's Young Avengers was almost nothing but Speed and Prodigy using their powers working lovely jobs that they hate, and it's a cool little peak into that world. Lol the poverty rate around the world must be awful. No wonder all the terrorist organizations have an endless supply of mooks. Their destitute lives can't get worse.

Rhyno posted:Are you looking for piecemeal issues or entire runs? Because for entire runs you can't beat Ebay. I sold a ton of complete sets on EBay through 2018. Piecemeal. I've been having better luck on Mercari for cheaper incomplete runs that I was looking for.

bessantj posted:It's quite disappointing because a super hero murder mystery does sound like it could be fun. What makes Heroes in Crisis so bad? Is Batman: Hush good for the mystery thing? Wat if heroes had PTSD like me. What if the PTSD is caused by me figuring out everything I believed is a lie. What if I write a story where I have ptsd because I found out the war crimes I did because of a lie overwhelmed me and I tried to pin it on other victims of ptsd.

Bring back Mirror Man. A mad scientist type villain whose gimmick is mirror poo poo and only has 2 major appearances. The biggest thing is he found out batman is Bruce Wayne and batman used that to drive the man insane. Not joking.

I mean all comic book enjoyers are subliterate degenerates. Wouldn't say the writers or artists are. A lot of editors definitely are.

NikkolasKing posted:So, I know this is comics and thus asking for a consistent portrayal of a long-lived character is pretty silly, but how is Ra's Al Ghul generally depicted in Batman comics? Is he a monster who just wears a friendly face or is there something genuinely noble about him? A monster who wears a friendly face.
