I can see the point the writer was trying to make with both of those. Like Bendis' thing about her being Jewish they both come off to me as trying to address real world poo poo through the lens of comics. It doesn't quite come off in either of them, but I get it. They're basically trying to go, in a hamfisted way, to the fans reading it "hey, you like these characters, so in real life maybe don't use these other words that are the same as the slurs used against your favorite characters here!" They don't work 100%, but "don't use racial slurs" is a fine thing to say, and sometimes to demonstrate bad poo poo you have to actually demonstrate it.

I'm wondering how long they're going to stretch this out. I am getting to the point where I'm less intrigued by the mystery and more just want to know who the gently caress I'm reading about.

Evil Mastermind posted:These panels have been posted before, and I still have no idea what's going on. Is the pudgy guy making out with apparently-Lada-Gaga-I-guess?, then pushing her off the balcony and grafting his head onto her body? The comic itself (I bought it after seeing the insane panels posted here because I had to know) is told from the perspective of the fat guy, who's insane and obsessed with her. All three panels are from the Paparazzi video, where in the first two he's inserted himself as her boyfriend in it (who does throw her off a balcony) and in the third one he's become her. Because he's meant to be insane.

mind the walrus posted:The cover is literally just a PR statement "look at this hot new outfit we came up for her that isn't skanky like the last one and meets a nice compromise between our fan-wank history of Starfire's personality as an exhibitionist of her body's beauty which dates all the way back to her Wolfman/Perez days and her far more popular modern incarnation on the Teen Titans cartoon from 10 years ago." Besides which while I hate the weird inability of the superhero industry to separate its wank material from its all-ages books, having sexuality flaunted and making fun of people's reactions to it is are not inherently bad things. But it's DC, and the last book they had her in she was Starfire: Intergalactic Amnesiac gently caress Hole. I'm not willing to give them even the slightest benefit of the doubt.

The new ongoing seems good, thankfully, but a lot of the non-Gerber stuff was really terrible. Also not a panel, but at least they broke the news about the Deadpool movie being PG-13 in a way that gives me hope the movie might still be good, while we're on the subject of him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUEkqZxLyrg

InShaneee posted:He's a comic book nerd and has been petitioning to play Deadpool in a standalone movie for years now. There was some test footage for a proposed Deadpool CG movie voiced by him that came out last year that was relatively well received. That's not from a proposed CG movie, it's literally leaked CG storyboard/test footage from the movie they are currently making. The script leaked over two years ago, and this is a scene from it. It will probably be in the final film in some form or another. E: Bucnasti posted:An R-Rating is the first step. Now if they can make it without Deadpool constantly taking off his mask and showing Ryan Reynolds un-horrifically-scarred face it might actually be good. The leaked script made it very clear that he's totally hosed up looking under the mask. But to get around the issue of this, there's a good chunk of pre-Weapon X Wade Wilson in there as well, setting up his relationship with the love interest, villain, and his origin.

Gaz-L posted:Dini himself has gone back and forth. In Mad Love it's implied she slept her way to a decent GPA, but Gotham Sirens has her be good enough to mess with multiple Gothamites' heads. I like the idea that maybe both are true, and it fits. She has the potential to be really, really good at it if she's motivated, but she cut corners. So instead of working at school she slept her way to good grades. Instead of putting in the time to build herself up she went to Arkham to try and get a book deal out of sessions with the Joker. She knows what she's doing perfectly well, but she takes the easy way.

Dolash posted:They're definitely trading on the absurdity of the squeaky-clean, painfully dull Archie Comics jumping into blood and guts, and there's probably a limit on the novelty of that. Once you've cashed in a long history of sincerity to do "Zombies/slasher villains, but with Archie" there's not really anywhere left to go, unless you have the guts to go full post-modern. Aren't they relaunching the whole line soon with Mark Waid writing? Not exactly post-modern, but depending on how that goes it seems like they're actually going to be trying to modernize the whole thing at the very least, with some real writing talent behind it. And Fiona Staples is drawing it too, I guess.

ManiacClown posted:That really was fun. I can't believe people who did read both the "real" and our versions said that what Gavok and I did made more sense than the actual comics when we had Hawkeye chase Spider-Man down for Twinkies and Thor was Asgardian Santa. As someone who read this I can confirm that not only was it more entertaining, but yes, it made much more sense. It at least followed it's own internal logic and was consistent in it's madness, unlike the real poo poo.
