I stand by my dread that this is gonna suck even worse for Harley. They're divebombing her so hard, and I thought being Girlpool was as bad as it could get.

Love the new Superman costume tho.

Barry is Silver Age. Wally represented the modern age 80s-00s.

They are only keeping wally black to promote the tv show.

They're saying bringing back old Wally because he's "our" Wally is the same thing as bringing back Barry for nostalgia.

My happiness with the revival of the classic Kid Flash costume, which I like a lot, is at odds with my disappointment that the black guy has kid in his name. Also, Damian in the Titans suuuuuucks. The past few years of Tim-led Titans did too, but that wasn't his fault. :( Might read anyway.

I prefer Midnighter not be so flaming, honestly. Gay characters are written too much like the straight fear of gays incessantly sexually harassing you too much.

I don't see what this has to do with hoping the character is in a comic book. I don't see a Midnighter solo book and I don't want him to just disappear.

Because that's been Midnighter's main interactions with Dick Grayson up to this point.

Everyone talks about how boring Hal is but I feel the exact same way about Barry. Replacing either of them with Kyle or Wally isn't just nostalgia, it's objectively better. Barry was mainly the Flash in an era of stilted dialogue and characterization, he was never anything special and no one's made him anything special since.

I like Titans a lot because it's more 60s Titans than New Teen Titans, which I don't like. Wish Kid Flash was there too instead of Damian's TTs, but whatevs. New guy looks cool.

I'm going to miss Roy but the idea of Jason leading an edgy version of the Trinity is too good to pass up. With Lobdell at the helm and Soy on the art, they only need to ditch the STUPID Destro helmet and we're golden.

Is Artemis related to Wonder Woman? I pretty much only know her from Young Justice. You're right, though, this is hella cool. I'll miss Roy but am glad Starfire is still gone, and Bizarro on a team book is a wonderful idea.

So watching the Rebirth panel that I missed earlier and... uh... I kinda really like what the new writer of Cyborg had to say about the book. It sounds like a cool take. I will actually check out an issue or two after hearing him talk about it. If DC actually makes me give a gently caress about Cyborg then anything really is possible.

I don't know how I feel about the world getting yet another cybernetics eat the soul story, though.

To be fair, it almost seems like DC actively tries to keep the only characters anyone cares about white guys. Roll back all the legacy heroes and make your one important PoC a random Teen Titan who has no business being on the League? Great idea :rolleyes:

SonicRulez posted:

Speaking of, as someone who refuses to read Green Lantern, where is John? Are him, Guy, Hal, and Kyle doing space things while the newbies join the League? Why would the Justice League ever need two Green Lanterns?

Why would you only want one guy on the team with the most powerful and versatile set of abilities on the planet? At this rate the Earth GLs could start their own League and put every other super hero out of business.

TTG is a huge example of hit and miss. It's got some pretty nice gags here and there but it's mostly aggressively mediocre.
