    I don't know how much space is in it because I've only skimmed a couple issues, but I like the art on Invisible Republic.

    I thought Suicide Squad was on the bad side of "meh." Not terrible, not even bad, but not quite "meh," either. Certainly not MCU level "meh," anyway. That would definitely color my approach to a...

    All of that might make sense, if Batman was taken in isolation, but he's not in isolation. He shares a universe with Kal-El, the literal god who can reduce our planet to a debris field in about five...

    Perez, what a pro. That guy could take any old scrub designs and make them look like a AAA superteam. His cover for the Champions RPG is a great example.

    I wouldn't go so far as to call them my "favorite" obscure heroes, or anything, but damn if The Saga of Crystar wasn't about a hundred times cooler than it needed to be. You'd think it would be this...

    True, but Image was playing catchup, not creating a universe organically over decades. And it all had to feel fresh and original in an already crowded market. So you kinda have to grade on a curve....

    I assume the reason there'd be segregation would be to reflect the political issues surrounding Marvel Mutants?

    The whole thing is so contrived to begin with. "Oh poor me I have superpowers that...

    I sorta agree, but mostly on the...Hell, what's the name of the not-Apokolips half again? I like Darkseid, Apokolips, Granny Goodness, etc. I also like Scott Free, Big Barda, and Orion. The rest...

    Actually "happier" doesn't really work for WW. But I suppose she should be a "happy warrior," as she's slicing people up with the sword...

    My point is WW is a goddess, so go ahead and make her a...

    Mostly my opinion is useful because I'm not all that into comics anymore, and more importantly, I've never been into DC comics. (In other words, I have no idea what most of you guys are talking about...
  12. Other than not knowing what "Super Sons" is, I...

    Other than not knowing what "Super Sons" is, I agree with this. DC would probably get much better results by being a "happier" franchise. That's what Superman and Wonder Woman are good at. (Bats can...

    I can nitpick actress' physiques with the best of them (and I am certainly no fan of slim-hipped big-muscled flat-chested man-jawed women), and I think you're barking up the wrong tree with this....

    Haven't the Wacho brothers had nothing but a long series of flops since The Matrix? Serious question - I stopped paying much attention to movies years ago.

    I'm not really the guy to answer what DC...

    Setting a Bond comic in the present seems like going along to get along. The movies had to advance away from the sixties and the height of the Cold War in large part because of budgetary concerns;...

    Superman. I'm so perfect, I'm so not a mere human, I'm so godlike (understatement), I'm even more American than you, even though I'm an alien, cuz I'm an aw-shucks Kansas boy. I'm the outsider who's...

    Claremont/Romita Jr, here. That takes me back. I was actually 12, because I remember the first X-Men comic I bought; Uncanny X-Men 188, and that was in 1984.



    It's become quite obvious to me...

    Beast is has been suffering from miscasting since his creation. He doesn't belong on a super-team, he belongs in his own lone wolf anti-hero title. Really I'm talking about a re-imagining of the...

    I loved the part where Captain America is a fascist, and not, say, a total progtard, like every other mainstream corporate comics superhero.

    Dan, looking at GitS now, thx. Will check out his other work too. (and yeah I'm a huge Gimenez fan. I think I like his work on The Fourth Power better than Metabarons, though)

    Yeah I forgot to mention UW1. It's in a folder that I've been DLing stuff to and haven't assimilated it into my genre folders. Will look at GL: Earth One, thx.
