Is YJ in canon? Or is it a book I should just read and not care about that? Because the original run is one of my favorite comics ever.

Man YJ was a weird read. I finished the book and was actually startled because NOTHING happened.

It's been a long time since I bought floppies. The characters pulled me back because I loved the original series.

I was okay with Young Justice. They're the late teens early 20s team now, with the Titans mid-20s. Connor not having been mentioned until now is weird, but I'm thinking that's Doomsday Clock fuckery. I'm all about letting the characters progress, and I'm willing to see what's up with the Superboy Family.

DC Universe has some holes where I wish it didn't. No Impulse, and Johns's Teen Titans runs out at like issue 42. No Shade the Changing Man. No Final Crisis. Are there hidden treasures in there or should I just finish the Morrisson Doom Patrol and be done with it?

What hit me in YJ was everyone recognizing Connor but Cassie not remembering he was her first love, sex, whatever. I suppose if this is New 52 Cassie it's a different beast, but then what do they remember about THAT Superboy?

Really pulling for my Milligan-based Shade road comedy. Which I just remembered had one of those little cartoons. Weird choices they've made at times.

You know, setting Liefeld loose on Kamandi or New Gods might not be a terrible idea. Being Kirby lines they're already associated with a strong artist style, and that's something Rob brings. Not to replace Kirby, but to follow along there. I think I'd rather have him on Kamandi, personally.

Dawgstar posted:That reminds me I re-read that mid-00's JLA Classified/I Can't Believe It's Not The Justice League run and man that did not hold up like I wanted. Ralph and Sue were fine - I mean, Sue's the smartest character in that book just as God intended - but I'm not sure why they decided to write Mary Marvel borderline special needs. I think she's just super goody-goody. Captain Marvel was written the same way in the original books. It reflects the lighter nature of the Shazam characters.

X-O posted:Shoulda just stayed in the speedforce instead of coming back in Rebirth. Have they said at all why they bothered or is it just DC's usual contempt for readers and happy endings? Remember when DC was all about inspirational heroes and Marvel was the dark and gritty stuff?

Which Legion? The classic is too old, the Zero Hour is searching the Multiverse, and the 3boot is on the wrong earth. (I read a lot of Legion recently)

What the hell is going on with the DC universe? I read up to maybe Convergence and then stayed in the back issue realm for a while. I picked up the first trade for the current Justice League and I'm lost. It's a new league but they all know each other? Martian Manhunter is the head of the league but has not been around for years? There are multiple multiverses, and the JLA broke the Source Wall but we're just expected to know that story before an issue #1 of the flagship title? I'm drowning and this isn't the DC universe I read for years. I thought Rebirth was supposed to give us that back.

I've been reading the YJ books and it hasn't really come up. Has any other series covered why some people remember the original Young Justice and some don't? Is it it just a Dr Manhattan punched reality thing? edit: Hah! Never mind as of #14 Beerdeer fucked around with this message at 15:39 on Mar 11, 2020 |

About 6 months ago I decided to try the Legion without any knowledge of the team. The thread recommended I just go ahead with the Threeboot and if I liked that to go back to ZH. Threeboot was fantastic.

I was actually pretty cool with how Young Justice addressed things. "People did a bunch of stuff and the universe got changed" is a "Power Girl was from Earth 2 but then Earth 2 was erased" level of fresh air.

Okay, so let's say I want to follow the Young Justice characters. Do Tim, Bart, and Connor have books? I see there's a new Wonder Girl. The last time I seriously read DC was around 2004-5 around Infinite Crisis. Everything was fairly stable then, just starting to get shaky. I've tried a couple times to get back in but I think I did bounce off that 2016 JLA, and the Metal series didn't do much for me.

TwoPair posted:Tim has had a couple of stories in Batman: Urban Legends which is an anthology comic featuring a bunch of other Bat-characters. IIRC it was one of those where he came out as being bi. Connor appeared in the Superman comics in Bendis' run (he is not in the current ones). I don't think Bart's been in anything since the YJ revival aside from group shots in event books. Thanks much
