Gaz-L posted:Almost like Azzarello clear-cutting all of Marston (William and Elizabeth), Perez and Rucka's stuff? Why are his changes sacrosanct, but the stuff he decided to retcon is fine to lose? None of his changes were even all that interesting. So being committed to them is weird.

Rhyno posted:I'm actually really curious to see how this goes. One of the legit rumor dropping guys said he had it on good authority that the Mary Jane and daughter from Renew Your Vows were going to make it into the new Marvel Universe post SW alongside the original Mary Jane. So we'd then have two versions of MJ walking around and supposedly Peter would remember his history with both of them. It's one thing for heroes to meet other versions of themselves, that's old hat. How often have we had depictions of a normal person on the street having to deal with an evil twin? I still can't figure out what the point of that would have been.

But he still would have been single! It's a weird half measure that makes no one happy. Which is DC as gently caress.

DrProsek posted:Yeah while I think it'd kinda messed up Jason did it because he sucks at psychology, I'm still counting it as a win for Lobdell. If DC/Lobdell wanted to turn Red Hood into the garbageman of bad DC villains I'd be all for it. The series would then end in a suicide.

Gaz-L posted:I like how your first choice is the one guy we know it does work on. (And even if it hadn't happened on panel, why would Sinestro be immune to bullets? He's as much 'just a dude' as any of the human Lanterns without a ring.) Because he is a bad guy so his ring doesn't fail at inappropriate times. Though why people are arguing the merits of a dumb gimmick in the first place is beyond me.

Super bro may have great potential but if you have over 100 issues of stories without hitting anything interesting then I don't think it's gonna happen. Also i don't think Superdad has had that many stories unless you are counting else worlds?

Nope. Nothing particularly interesting that made Superman stand out. Some of those stories were fine, but I don't think they required SuperBro. But that is because SuperBro wasn't really a new character but more like a reset.

The reason I feel this way is because they are, by the way. Which is why I find this reaction puzzling. If you miss it that much just hope they release an adventure series that goes into the past adventures not covered before, boom done.

AA is also the only book listed were he felt semi distinct. But that was because Max only knows how to write like one character and it's basically him.

BigRed0427 posted:Batwoman and Constantine are the only two queer DC characters I can think of that are major characters. Are there any others? Becuase when it comes to queer characters, or minority characters in general, they tend to fall to the wayside pretty quickly. Alan is in Earth 2: Society, but he is some weird godlike being so his orientation is kind of nonexistent.

TwoPair posted:Really GL and Batman were the two points of absolute confusion in the N52 change because Johns and Morrison still had stories going. Morrison just kept writing Inc. like nothing happened (except for everyone changing costumes and Steph Brown and Cass Cain vanishing) while Johns kept writing GL like nothing had happened while still referencing the past and just presumably just praying that he never hit a continuity error too noticeable. Also Death of Superman and No mans land happened. Though Reign ofSuperman probably didn't happen? I dunno,
