Luthor's look was based off of Telly Sevalas and therefore pretty strongly Grecian, which combined with his healthy tan caused some people to think he was supposed to be black back when Superman TAS first started. Not that there's anything wrong with that! </seinfeld>

TwoPair posted:Ha ha holy poo poo you're kidding me. Green Lantern has almost become the new "A TITAN DIES" in terms of how predictable it is because things always get worse. Yet nobody ever dies or gets injured but redshirt lanterns. Kilowog and Mogo and Arisia (etc.) all make it through fine but the rest just keel over. At this point the Guardians are less competent than Arkham's security team.

Shameless posted:More than anything it's the Captain Marvel issue that I'm looking forward to. His little bits in Superman Beyond showed that Morrison totally gets the character and Cameron Stewart on art is just icing on the cake. Yeah, this is one of those things that as soon as I heard about it, I realized it's been missing all my life.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Tynion's also ignoring characterizations to pander the fans (Tim and Dick's dynamics are totally different now and yet he keeps writing them like the N52 never happened). Guess that's my biggest gripe with him, he refuse to admit the changes brought at the characters by the N52. Yeah, and what ever happened to New Coke anyway?

I miss the thing where J'onn was so big in the southern hemisphere he was nearly as popular as Superman south of the equator and looked up to by all peoples because his (extremely blatant) alien identity and shapeshifting powers made him a literal everyman hero to entire continents struggling for global recognition.

Waterhaul posted:This is basically what happens at the end of Final Crisis where the likes of Captain Carrot and his Zoo Crew are summoned to help defeat Mandrakk. And isn't Captain Marvel straight-up paralleled to Superman when he's brought along with the army of Supermen by the Miracle Machine? Or was that when Nix Utoan brought his forces to the fight.

Baron Bifford posted:LOL. What does Mr Sims think soldiers do anyway? Yeah, not only does that not track with images of Cap leading the charge up Omaha Beach or parachuting deep into Nazi territory to liberate a POW camp, but throwing teenage Bucky under the killing machine bus to keep Cap squeaky clean is kinda hosed up. Now I'm imagining a Batman flashback to the Dick Sprang era: "Publicly, I took on a teenage sidekick to give the city's youth a symbol of hope and a role model... but beyond that, I had to maintain the principle that Batman would never kill in the pursuit of justice. Batman would never kill." While Robin is snapping hoodlum necks and throwing henchmen off of rooftops. McSpanky fucked around with this message at 21:53 on Nov 28, 2014 |

I laughed so much I almost forgot how loving stupid things get whenever writers try to hang lampshades on lovely tropes instead of just fixing them or working around them. And since Johns decided to helm an entire company-wide crossover about one of the oldest, hoariest tropes of the genre, it got really loving stupid.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Just curious, why people always complaints about the Robins but not about the Lanterns? Five years seem way too little for having 4 lanterns. The five-year back history is a huge albatross on the neck of the New 52, generally and not just for Batman and GL. It applies for some characters and not others, things in the past happened or didn't depending on whether a writer wants them to build on them or make them an upcoming event to put their spin on them, anything goes. The DCU's in a state of quantum history: an event can only be said to have definitively occurred in the specific moment that it is depicted on a page, then immediately returns to a probability matrix of having happened/not happened/yet to happen until the next reference.

Dead parents, new character has friction with the Titans, low power levels so they can dramatically level up, drawn-out heel/face turn drama, replaced a preexisting character for no reason, but it's okay because we kinda sorta closed the boob window!
