Thanks for the info, Rich. I'm just sharing what I heard from a retailer and hope they're not true. Neither these rumors nor the ones shared later in this thread (from 4chan) sound like anything I...
I shared this in the DC News thread but figure it's relevant here as well:
I admit up front that what I'm about to share might be completely false, so take it with a grain of salt. It's some fun stuff my comic book retailer shared with me, stuff he heard from people he...
My guess is that Johns was going to include scenes of Jor-El being returned to his time in Doomsday Clock #12, but had to adjust since Bendis wanted to use him. This is one of the reasons the final...
Agreed. The last twenty-three years have been so complicated and largely directionless that the post-COIE continuity and its later versions are done for good. There's no amount of fixing that can be...
I'm with you. I loathe Snyder's work, especially the garbage he churned out involving the Multiverse. It was dreadful and further damaged and complicated an already messy continuity situation, one...
I agree that this was one of the worst aspects of the New 52, though not the worst. The worst was that it was a WB directive issued practically overnight, with the scrambling to make it happen...
This is a frequent daydream of mine, though I wouldn't wish him on anyone else. He destroyed so much during his reign of terror.
Geoff Johns' post-Doomsday Clock, pre-returning DiDio and Bendis plan for the DCU.
So how much of a gap is there between the last Man of Steel HC volume and this Triangle omnibus?
A few Supermen of America and some odds and ends:
Iron Munro (team leader)
Outburst (Mitch Anderson)
Livewire
Max Mercury
The Dark Knight Returns and its sequels.
It's sad to think that so much could have been preserved while also "adjusting" Superman's mythos for new readers. After all, those Silver/Bronze concepts came back eventually, albeit in new forms....
Damn, this is what I would have liked to have seen. It happened but it doesn't have to be acknowledged if deemed "outdated" or whatever.
With all due respect, don't presume that nostalgia has anything to do with my appraisal of the Silver and Bronze Age versions of Superman. No one can argue that there are weak stories during those...
Is this the same guy that took Clark out of his role as Superman, took him off Earth, had him fight in a redundant and contrived "gladiator"/War World story, and gave us two entirely unnecessary...
Do you have any more info on this? I'm curious as to what could have been done to revamp Superman's early years that would have also allowed for a soft reboot. Are we talking what Byrne did with...
No, because Bendis is far from the excellent writer he was twenty years ago and because he has damaged Superman and the Super Family since being brought aboard by Dan DiDio to do exactly that. It...
No Bendis characters should ever be used/referenced again. Ever.
This is very interesting, but I don't think this is what I've read about. I'll do some more digging.
Clark as Superboy is essential to the mythos, even if he's not publicly known like in Johns' Secret Origins. I also love the Superboy series.
No offense, but that's ridiculous. The cape is...
Here's a radical idea for an "Ultimate Superman:"
Superman is the first and greatest superhero in his universe.
There's a "love triangle" between Superman, Clark Kent, and Lois Lane.
...
The current continuity needs to be abandoned. It's been a disaster of epic proportions since Infinite Crisis. I'd actually prefer an Ultimate DC if it was a more faithful version of DC Comics than...
Very cool idea, though one of the reasons I've always consider Otto Octavius to be Peter's ultimate enemy is because he is what Peter would have become without Ben and May and his powers. This is my...
