Letting fans write comics is a big reason why comics suck so bad.

That, and letting characters keep going for 70+ years with tons of different writers and editors instead of just having things end.

comic book superheros are the new polytheism. you can't just wash your hands and say Zeus has had enough adventures, the next priest needs something to do

I remember hearing about that one.

Superman and Big Barda were both mind controlled. And despite having mental control over two of the most powerful heroes, the villain decided to have them make a porn and sell it.

It's okay, her mom says she has an old soul simply because she is quite was and refined as a person. I believe this is most likely due to some sort of anomaly within her genes leaving her with an overdeveloped mind.

Somebody earlier in the thread asked for villains with motivations other than "destroy the world." The desire to make super-porn is a great motivation.

Alix spirals into depression as her new appearance forces her to quit her job teaching autistic children. Another emotional blow comes at the discovery that her deceased husband's superhero dreams stemmed from a fixation on superhero-based pornography and an online affair with "Super Sally Sonic," an immortal superhuman porn star. Distraught, Alix attempted suicide. While trying to find a structure hard enough to kill her on impact, she comes across a train wreck, and saves the people still inside. After those she saved call her a superhero, she decides to live up to the title, taking the name Bulleteer.

To bring light to the darkness, whether that darkness be ignorance, injustice, apathy, or stagnation.
Why destroy the world when you can instead make a ton of cash and not live in the post-apocalypse?

It's also cool that they seem to repeatedly use rape as a fate worse than death. There's no better message to send readers that lives are less valuable than sexual purity or whatever.

I found this while looking for more DC gold:

http://www.toptenz.net/top-10-worst-moments-in-dc-comics.php

It has the Superman/Big Barda porno story. I wanted to highlight this little tidbit, though:

quote:

Jack Kirby, the creator of Big Barda, particularly hated the story. That might have something to do with the fact that he modeled her personality after his own wife.

Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

its a shame, really. i really love the idea of a shared fiction universe you can keep tabs on and see whats up with, talk about with people. i guess good tv shows are better at doing that nowadays, but they're so infrequent and spaced out.

WE3 was actually optioned as a movie, had a script written, got a director attached and then has basically been in limbo for like a decade
