New Superman/Batman title spinning out of Year of the Villain

Bleeding Cool is reporting that Joshua Williamson and David Marquez will be the creative team for Superman/Batman.

This kind of sounds like the Dark Multiverse characters are DC’s Skrulls.

I see that DC has decided to stop hiding their agenda and are openly going to smear, kill or derail the younger generation of heroes. Almost all of the suspects are from the Titans franchise or have ties to it.

I could not give less of a damn about anything related to The Batman Who Laughs or Metal. Instant non-buys for me.

[Ying Ko]

Meh. I would have preferred Marquez as a regular on Avengers. Pass.

Superman/Batman book by Williamson spinning out of Metal and Year Of Villains? Ehh.
David Marquez drawing Superman & Batman? Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

So I'm a little conflicted at the moment lol.

Oh God, Metal continues to contaminate the DC Universe. I actually like this idea and if the comic is well-written and has paranoia as a theme, it can be good. Even if anything Metal is unbearable.

Major takeways:

- Not surprised to see them bringing back Batman/Superman, although what office will this fall under? Batman? Superman? Justice League?

- David Marquez drawing a DC book = Epic Win.

- I guess this is replacing Justice League Odyssey on Williamson's slate.

- I really don't care for more Metal/Dark Multiverse/Batman Who Laughs stuff, and the premise of Batman and Superman dealing with corrupted versions of other characters doesn't really sound too strong a hook. It's going to live or die by Williamson's writing and his take on the World's Finest dynamic.

Yeah I’m already super tired of The Batman Who Laughs. Sadly it seems like he’s going to continue to be everywhere for at least the next year.

The Batman Who Laughs and Metal were mistakes.

I'm pretty sick of Batman Who Laughs. Was hoping he'd be done for a while after the mini.

Words cannot express how uninspired this is. If you are to have a team up book with high profile characters, at least have it be something vaguely resembling originality. Batman/Green Arrow. Superman/Green Lantern. Batman/Aquaman. Superman/Shazam. Mother of god why this again? Superman is not even that much of a draw in the comics industry any more.

[WestPhillyPunisher]

I’ll pass. This sounds like complete and utter **** that will waste Marquez’s talents.

What even is the point of the Batman Who Laughs past Metal? So Snyder can keep writing the Joker without writing the Joker?

This exactly. As soon as this guy started to appear more and more I realized that DC/Snyder had found a Joker loophole. Joker works best if he’s seldomly used. This way they can keep Joker in their back pocket and just use this guy. Plus Snyder can make TBWL the unstoppable god villain he’s always trying to make the Joker. His Joker is so freaking OP it’s ridiculous.

I will say...man it sucks to be Donna Troy .
