  1. The real question is, what does the White Album...

    The real question is, what does the White Album look like in the New 52/DC Rebirth continuity? Because the lyrics of The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill simply don't work in a world where Billy...
  2. I agree, and I think the "healing coma" is really...

    I agree, and I think the "healing coma" is really just a bizarre misinterpretation that casual fans invented over the years after not reading the entire Doomsday through Reign storyline (or just not...
  3. They kind of stopped picking the scab with Zero...

    They kind of stopped picking the scab with Zero Hour. The only time it was addressed between 1994 and 2003 was The Kingdom, and that just introduced Hypertime, not erased or undid anything. It...
  4. I doubt they'd ever "bring back the Pre-Crisis...

    I doubt they'd ever "bring back the Pre-Crisis universe", because substantively, what does that even mean at this point? Everything picked up as it was in 1986? No, there's been 32 years of iconic...
  5. Bleeding Cool can be obnoxious, but they're...

    Bleeding Cool can be obnoxious, but they're usually always right. I think the disdain they get is because of the tabloidy nature of their reporting, which is unusual for the comic book industry and...
  6. I hope Bleeding Cool is wrong, but they have a...

    I hope Bleeding Cool is wrong, but they have a disturbingly accurate track record when it comes to this stuff. I think the bizarre juxtaposition of this being rumored while they're setting up so...

    This comment almost makes this dreadful rumor worthwhile.
  8. If this came to pass and they actually erased...

    If this came to pass and they actually erased Clark/Lois (again!), Jon Kent, and potentially even Damian Wayne, I'd definitely be done and never come back. DC has been ridiculous under DiDio's...

    There's been no indication the blue suit ever "happened" in the current timeline. The only time we've seen it since Reborn is when Superman was surfing Hypertime in the Action #1000 story. I think...
  10. Not uninterested or negative anticipation of...

    Not uninterested or negative anticipation of Bendis. More so the idea that nothing matters in the current books because the big new creative team is coming up and the current stories won't "matter"....
  11. Continuity has never been the issue for Superman....

    Continuity has never been the issue for Superman. It doesn't matter what the origin is, what Krypton looks like, or when Superman first fought Metallo or Parasite. Superman books tend to thrive...
  12. I found the middle story rather bemusing, given...

    I found the middle story rather bemusing, given the timing right after this year's White House Correspondent's Dinner. Then the final line, with Lex saying he's running for President, and I realized...
  13. The most weirdly reassuring bit in the story was...

    The most weirdly reassuring bit in the story was the reference to President Luthor. That's one storyline I figured the Rebirth era would never explicitly reference again, and I actually assumed...
  14. Hasn't John Henry known for awhile? I thought...

    Hasn't John Henry known for awhile? I thought he's been in on the secret since after his solo book ended, when he moved back to Metropolis and established Steelworks. Of course, the New 52 might...
  15. My enthusiasm had been waning on Tomasi and...

    My enthusiasm had been waning on Tomasi and Gleason's run. Between the numerous fill-ins, heavy reliance on figures from the greater DCU and Tomasi's own past work (Batman, Robin, Frankenstein,...
  16. While I've never been a fan of the...

    While I've never been a fan of the anthology-style anniversary issues, I thought Action Comics #1000 was solid, as there were no stories that I outright disliked. I was glad to see Jurgens and...

    So if I'm to understand this right, not only is...

    So if I'm to understand this right, not only is the Multiverse no longer limited to 52 worlds (building upon the 53rd Earth created in The Wild Hunt), but Earth-0's universe is now expanded outward...
  18. I don't think we've seen Lexcorp's tower shaped...

    I don't think we've seen Lexcorp's tower shaped like an L since... Our Worlds at War? It was always a readily identifiable, sleek design, and I'm not sure why DC abandoned it, unless they wanted to...
  19. I basically follow what Jurgens laid out...

    I basically follow what Jurgens laid out post-Superman Reborn, mixed in with my own ideas.

    -Krypton is the Secret Origins version, making allowances for aspects of the planet's Man of Steel and...
  20. But Henshaw was human Post-Reborn. The Superman...

    But Henshaw was human Post-Reborn. The Superman Revenge Squad storyline kicked off with him retrieving the faux-Infinity Stone to transform himself back into the Cyborg, having become a human again...
  21. Right. He can make quick jaunts in space...

    Right. He can make quick jaunts in space unaided, but anything longer than a few hours and he needs the oxygen. This has varied different times since the '86 reboot (for example, shortly after his...
  22. And yet Cyborg Superman has his original look,...

    And yet Cyborg Superman has his original look, with the tights, in the flashback. Superman not having trunks in flashbacks when he should have had them was an understandable art error early on, but...

    Yep. Technically there are three Bizarros in Superman canon at any given time. A Lex Luthor-grown clone, Bizarro #1 who inhabits a planet in deep space called Bizarro World, and now a Bizarro from...
  24. They brought me back to Superman. They made me...

    They brought me back to Superman. They made me get excited about the published history of Superman in the same way Grant Morrison made me obsess over every square inch of Batman lore for a solid...
  25. I've never been a fan of the immortal Superman...

    I've never been a fan of the immortal Superman idea, but this is a bit different. This one lets Superman keep his family, a meta-commentary on the notion that Superman IS forever, and, unlike the...
