MonsterEnvy posted:Honestly I would not mind a reboot. I hate too many things about the NU DCU to ever accept it. New 52 was like the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy. They completely misunderstood what made the characters cool. Now just like Lucasfilm did with the Force Awakens, its time to sweep this garbage out and restore the true canon.

Teenage Fansub posted:C'mon now. There was one good thing in the prequels (podracing) and there were at least eight times that many good comics in the N52 (G.I. Zombie #1-8) I never liked Pod Racing and I don't understand why people are so in love with it. It was super cartoony and out of place. I mean I get Lucas wanted to do a homage to Ben Hurr but it could have been executed a lot better by featuring a teenage or older Anakin, something more akin to the swoop bikes and a tone less like Wacky Races. There was some stuff in the N52 I liked and for the record I'm always pro reboot. I just think that A)There should be planning done to make sure there aren't major continuity issues (especially in the first month of the relaunch!) B) Quality creative teams with some freedom to tell their stories and C) The iconic elements of the character shouldn't be hosed around with too much. A good example of reboots done right was the Valiant Comics relaunch and to a lesser extent the first few years of the Ultimate Universe.

So is there not going to be a Justice League #52? Seems kind of weird considering it was the flagship book of the line. DC is gonna keep being DC I guess...

DrProsek posted:This reboot will be the New 51. Each month, DC will reboot with 1 fewer launch title until eventually we're just down to the New Batman. Seems like they should have extended The Darkseid War for 2 more issues then considering the whole fight with the anti-monitor could have concluded with a big universal shakeup. The current rumor is that in June no book has a number and instead just has Rebirth at the end so Batman Rebirth, JL Rebirth, etc. and then new #1s in July

I hope the rumor about Marc Silvestri becoming creative lead over Batman is true. I want to see more 90s Image guys working on DC books.

Rhyno posted:Superman AA #4 makes me want to see what Landis would do with Batman now. The Superman books should only be handled by Landis & Pak (Fun Fact they pitched a complete reimagining of the Death of Superman Saga in the early days of the New 52 that DC scrapped in favor of DOOMED). Instead we are going to get a weekly series by Tomasi. gently caress!

Rhyno posted:Deathstroke only has a monthly book because of the major positive fan reaction to his appearance in Arrow seasons 1 & 2. He appears in 1 episode of season 3 that aired a year ago and probably won't be back. the image Stephen Amell released today showing someone that appears to be Deathstroke is reportedly not Manu Bennet in the suit. I don't think thats true. Deathstroke has been popular since the 90s. He had a long running solo title and frequently appeared in Teen Titans and major event books. What people forget is that a large swath of characters from Deathstroke to Suicide Squad were ignored by Didio in the 00s and only got books again when the New 52 happened. I remember it was a big deal when Deathstroke returned for a beefy role in Identity Crisis. Alucard Nacirema fucked around with this message at 03:12 on Feb 19, 2016 |

Rhyno posted:Deathstroke was prominently used in various DC books before IC. Also he had a 12 issue series as a N52 launch that was absolute garbage. And again, the new comic rejuvenated him to be just like TV Deathstroke. Had he not popped up in Arrow he'd never have gotten another ongoing. The first new 52 book lasted for 21 issues and then just relaunched with a new #1 for a sales boost. It didn't necessarily have anything to do with arrow.

Jim Lee is confirmed for Suicide Squad I was pretty underwhelmed yesterday with the announcement but now I'm starting to get excited. I want to see creative teams and what direction there taking the stories in and what the new Universe actually looks like (Is it still New 52, Post-Crisis, a hodgepodge of both, or something new).
