I would actually like to see Superboy prime going all Zen and refuse to involve himself in anything ever again.

Id be willing to read that as long as they keep Tom King away from Batman and Wally West.

I'm liking death metal, if only for 2 reasons: the Metalverse map is amazing and it looks like the setting of a killer tabletop RPG. And everything is SO hosed that the heroes have basically gone into complete gallows humor. It is the best.

If anything, Death Metal was worth it for this.

Has Conner Kent ever shown himself to be as smart as his bald father? Because he kinda should be, he is a clone (half of one anyway, and superman is also supersmart), after all...

But that's kinda the thing, Conner isn't a child of then, he is a clone.

TwoPair posted:It told one good story which was pre-Flashpoint Superman and Lois Lane having their son and then after arriving in the N52 raising him while staying largely out of world events with Superman going out in a covert black suit to help certain events that he recognizes from his past play out differently in this essentially new world, like saving Hank Henshaw so he never becomes Cyborg Superman. Or at least, I thought it was neat. I'm still wondering, if they fused the stories of Dad-Superman and Bro-Superman (You know as well as I do who is who in this scenario), does that mean that Superman had a very public affair with Wonder Woman??

I do like bro superman. He felt a bit more relatably human? Like, dad superman feels like someone who will sit down and give you the exact advice to fix your life, bro superman will sit down with you, share a few cans of beer and just commiserate with you.

I'd really like a DCUO like event. Massive super-empowering catastrophe and now both heroes and villains have to deal with there being thousands more super-people to deal with on all points of the morality chart, and what to do with that.

I love that bug in arkham asylum where you knock out thugs by punching them in the junk. I love it even more that it not only didn't get patched out but replicated in every other arkham game, basically canonizing it into Batman's arsenal.

N52 superman is younger, brasher, and a bit more relatable. He still is Good Guy supreme, but he at least feels like he would sit down with you for beers instead of giving you a warm cup of milk and sending you to bed.

Can we talk about how weird Romita JR's art gets? He used to have great artwork but over time it seems his own style got a bit TOO stylized and sometimes he gets sloppy and every character ends up with a square face and no emotion

The first chapter of the Joker raises a baby manga is out. It is...wholesome? Wait that's not right... Also, seeing Joker's inner dialogue is hilarious. the fact that he uses his mad laughter to cover up that he's has no idea wtf to do next is genius

I'm just very surprised people want Steph with anyone else, like, I thought her relationship with Tim was one of those things a lot people see as sacrosanct.

I just read Death Metal: Secret origin, which is basically about Superboy Prime and, well, it is what I wanted. Poor dude had been the entire DCU's laughingstock for decades, and a way for the editors to make fun of fanboys. Giving him a chance to live his own life for once? That's enough for me. I'm okay if he never shows up again.

Gaz-L posted:Wonder Woman worked mostly because the future stuff was all but irrelevant. You could have done that in the regular WW title with Diana and very little would change. Yeah but you couldn't ship Superman II with Brazillian Wonder Woman otherwise :V

Xelkelvos posted:Nubia seems to be a more orthodox type of WW story so I'm looking forward to that along with Yara's adventures. The Midnighter backup story was fun if a little silly, though it's a bit odd that both it and the Mister Miracle backup involve paradoxes. The Superman of Warworld story is also fairly solid but could've probably have been done in the main canon in between larger, interconnected arcs since it could have worked standalone. The Batgirl(s) and GCS backups were good. No definite conclusion on Cass/Steph. The finale of Nightwing just made me want Dick as the new Bat even more. There's about to be two Wonder Women, why can't we have two Batmen? Phrasing :V

Protagorean posted:lol I know it's comics so propaganda is in its DNA, but Superman Worlds at War's A-plot is really gross. at the sharing circle for people who were saved by Superman, the very first story is a white girl who is touring Jerusalem being rescued from an Arab woman with a suicide vest by Big Blue. then the next issue you find out the reason the young black female lead said she was saved by Clark Kent instead of Superman was because she really liked the aww shucks story he wrote about a black man who died crippled, penniless and alone, which was his country's thanks for giving up a music career to fight the genocidal empire overseas that had been directly inspired by the genocidal empire that had enslaved his ancestors, and spending the rest of his days as a civil rights protestor and social activist, keeping a scholarship in his dead son's name alive even as he slept on the streets. I mean there was a line about bringing "democracy and equality to Germany [after the war] even while serving in a segregated Army unit" which is a cute euphemism for letting the Nazis continue to run West Germany, but I don't know what a GI in a segregated unit would have to do with that either way. and it's structured in a way where duh, that man who never gave up, even when life and God gave him a bum rap on the way in and kicked him in the stomach even when he was down almost every day until he died? that man is Clark Kent. I'm sorry but I'm having a hard time parsing this? I can't quite understand what you're talking about?

I tend to forget but on the other hand over the years I've started to not think too much of GM's writing because they tend to disregard the story of the character to do whatever they want to.
