The middle aged divorced dad is certainly a unique angle for a DC superhero, but the daughters age the character considerably, so I completely understand why Isabella has something against them.

I think I might have read that comic. Is it from Kurt Busiek's Action Comics?
Yeah, I dunno' if this current comic can really be called a John Stewart book in good faith. Rather, it's a comic that features him. And when he is around he has no ring, and that's no fun for me for...
Gerard Jones is clearly a very sick person, but I also have a fondness for his early Green Lantern work. I don't have a problem separating the art from the artist in that instance. Perhaps it's...
The difference, as you've noted, is that we know Black Canary isn't named such because of her ethnicity. We know that Black Lightning is. Or to pretend that he's not is to be disingenuous (I'm not...
Given the relatively low amount of black heroes that lead their own stories in comics associated with DC Comics, those are already very notable things to have in common. They also share...

If Peter was called "White Spider" and the character was somehow "whiteness" focused, I don't think the character would be as big as Spider-Man. Actually, I'm positive he wouldn't be. He would exist...
The topic is about unconventional pairings, though, not what's the most obvious thing to do.
Anyway, differences are often what make pairings interesting.
The most interesting romance I've...
What I'm going to say is subjective, but since my opinion was asked...
My answer is no. I never saw a good deal of potential in this character, or thought..."Huh...they're really onto something...
Hal Jordan being a drunk driver seems right in line with what Christopher Priest was doing, considering Priest:
Had Hal Jordan rob diamonds from a mine.
Had John Stewart encourage Hal to do the...
Even if they aren't fans, a message is being sent that DC may do this to characters they ARE fans of. So I can understand alarm because of that.
I mainly just wanted to say that, but in regards to...
I'd mark out a bit if Jim Balent went back to work on Catwoman. He had the best visual for Catwoman, period, in my opinion. That, and his book was really successful, from what I recall. It certainly...
I like Ice a lot, too. She would be a fun character to do comics about. There aren't too many DC characters I'd want to work on, but she is actually one I wouldn't mind doing. I don't have anything...
It will be interesting when/if the army and marines switch to drone troops. Then fighting battles against hordes of Chinese and Koreans would be like a bunch of guys sitting around playing Star Wars:...
I don"t think people wonder why the GL fanbase is fractured. People who follow this stuff generally know the reasons why.
Anyway, people are going to buy or not buy what they want for whatever...
Why are you acting like I accused him? The only entities I mentioned were DC, which is a company, and Johns and Bendis, who I feel created extraneous characters, but the company obviously signed off...
I don't want to just be negative, but I think criticism is pretty justified here.
This is an example of one of the main reasons Green Lantern lost quite a lot of appeal for me. The more DC...
Pretty basic. Goes something like...
"This investment isn't paying off to satisfaction. Do something else."
Or...
"I believe we will make more money doing this instead of that."
Or...
Well, again, the way I personally see it is...
If Superman, Batman, and, Wonder Woman are A-list, and Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and maybe Green Arrow are B-list...I would also put Cyborg at...
The way I see it, his biggest and most successful claim to fame is as a Teen Titan. DC attempted to make him "more" than that starting about a decade ago, but I think it was largely a spectacular...
DC must have lost their minds to make the Green Lantern title about Teen Lantern. She is probably the worst thing about the book. It needs less of her. Not more.
I didn't know that the list the poster was compiling was just about sales of the first three issues. The Arisia death is a complaint I've heard more than just a few times from readers, so I brought...
Gonna' go with Power Suit Lex Luthor.
Then after that, Shaquille O'Neal's Steel just for the cheese factor, because I find I'm not particular fond of any other characters or armored iterations of...
I would also add unceremoniously wiping out characters some people care about, namely Arisia. Yes, it can be argued she has a sordid past, but she has managed to develop somewhat of a fanbase...
Yeah, I don't think Morrison's run has anything to do with this.
I agree with this. I'm a little amused I'm saying this, but I find the character "boring". Because, it's like...he seems empty...
