Oh hey there, Granfaloon from Symphony of the Night! I thought Reis' artwork during Blackest Night was pretty great, actually, but I dunno, it all looked pretty sloppy here, especially when panels get smaller-he just gives up on detail really quick. It was an uglier comic than I would have preferred, and maybe That Was The Point Or Something. As a semi-sequel to Finals Crisis and SB3D, Mahnke should have taken point. redbackground fucked around with this message at 18:04 on Aug 20, 2014 |

That was a pretty good issue of New Avengers. Doc Fate even has his own Bridge! redbackground fucked around with this message at 20:37 on Sep 18, 2014 |

I did appreciate that for once in a story about a man who feels it's his destiny to become President, he was actually a good man. There is almost always something super-ominous about those types (Stillson, Smiler, etc). redbackground fucked around with this message at 16:15 on Nov 20, 2014 |

Not sure why, but my brain settled on the voice of Jonas Venture, Jr. for Ultra Comics.

McSpanky posted:Yeah that's real clever and everything but I'm getting a little tired of clever writers making sure that nothing good can ever be enjoyed without reminding us that the society of the time wasn't perfect. And really, putting those kinds of details into a setting derived from Golden-Age Fawcett is about as fair as Infinite Crisis rewriting history so that the Silver Age was so goofy and carefree because of rape and mindwipes.

"You’ve been booby-trapped! Darkseid turned you into a doomsday weapon and aimed you directly at the 21st century!" One thing I love about Morrison and Hickman, is that when they have to absolutely nail a line, they always come through.

graybook posted:I tried checking previous pages for this, but anyone got an idea on why Intellectron's speech renders certain words in a certain way? "You" becomes "YU", "to" becomes "2", "your" becomes "yr" - though going back to the very first issue, there's a Gentry speech bubble that states "CHOOSE YOUR WEAPONS, NIX UOTAN!", breaking the your->yr scheme.

So, in the end, overall Mutliversity left me kind of cold. Great moments interspersed, but I really have no desire to read Everything again. Showing so many alternate earth's in these one-shots is cool, but the flipside is that there is no zero momentum between them that gets to build, and I was surprised how little the "main" plot with the Gentry was really part of the goings-on, and almost seemed to be a background side-plot. The whole affair, looking back, comes across as more as a better-than-average anthology, which I'm glad exists, but never really got pumped up about. Final Crisis was better.

Smudgie Buggler posted:Yeah, probably won't. My interest in Grant Morrison's particular brand of insanity is limited. I just clicked on this thread a whim, saw that map and had a "wait, what the gently caress?" moment. Then about five minutes after I posted that question I saw a version that had some explanatory material on it and saw that Morpheus and the Endless are a part of this gigantic mess of crap.

Smudgie Buggler posted:From 2006 to 2009 I read at least half a dozen DC funnybooks a week, and I never once saw the Endless crop up. The idea that they're a part of the DCU and not their own little cordoned-off area of comic books as a medium is pretty new.
