DC vs. Vampires #6 Preview

[Rac7d*]

There is an Asura's Wrath game where the end-boss throws stars at the player, literally.



Because the movie is trash.



Because the story of Injustice is laughably bad written.



Several times because Superman's invincibility is just extreme high durability to begin with, and Superman is just 1 of many anyway, most of the Justice League should have never become a vampire in this.

So we’re clear that DC doesn’t know how to write around challenges for Superman
Since every instance involves sending him away, kyrptonite wound or depower.

You think it would annoy people but we have 10 seasons of smallville for a reason

No this is just wrong because almost anyone in his general ballpark has means to hurt or injure him, and for 2 of your 3 examples would it have been even kind of the easy solutions to just not nerf others so crazy much, for the DCEU just don't turn Wonder Woman and Flash into laughable fodder and let the Justice League not fight Steppenwolf but an actually Justice League worthy villain. For Injustice just don't turn anyone into an idiot for the sake of Batman again, don't pretend that it would make any sense that so many superheroes would follow Superman just for the evulz, or that Superman on his own would be somehow such a big threat on a planet full of superheroes and supervillains.

Smallvile works very differently, because it was far more limited by its setting.

This is a weird take for me. It's a magical curse that first makes you un-alive and then makes you undead. To me, the only pre-requisite that seems to have is to be alive in the first place and the characters we've seen become vampires are... basically mortal. Even biting may be redundant because the only transformation we've seen onscreen was kickstarted by the victim having to drink the vamprie's blood, not the bite itself.

Superman (and Wonder Woman or most of the JL save supers like Red Tornado/Deadman etc) aren't abstract beings, or machines, or beings made of pure energy. Sure, sometimes they get a powerup that puts on the level of the Spectre, but most of the time they are mortal or have a mortal side: they eat food, need to breathe (admitedly sometimes), have organs and blood and despite their superpowers have succumbbed to sickness and been affected by both man-made and magical poisons/toxins or things that alter their personalities in some way; this shouldn't really be any different.

Plus it's not like Superman hasn't been shown to use other sources of energy that aren't the sun as fuel (iirc, Tynion himself wrote a scene in his and Scott Snyder's run where he had to absorb Starman's surplus energy and got momentarily supercharged).

EDIT: Plus the alien thing, I wouldn't be surprised if that's just more misdirection, given that the only two characters who say it are a guy who's shown to be wrong about his theories explicitly (and got killed for his troubles) and the big bad who's proven himself a liar and is taunting his enemies.

Would love to hear how the other characters (Metal Men, Doom Patrol, Geo Force, Black Lightning, Metamorpho) were doing these events? Did they fall prey to Dick's machinations? Or did they fall through the cracks? Were they killed? turned? survive?
Hope they don't get forgotten.

The wait between issp is killer esp when the story is getting so intresting

Did Martian Manhunter (J'onn) survive the Robin issue?

[Johnny]

Yes, apparently due to his "unique alien physiology" they don't know how to turn him yet. Makes you wonder how they turned Superman.

Well, I wondered if Elongated Man and Plastic Man would be immune due to their chemically altered physiology. Aquaman, Aqualad, and Mira might have too much salt content in their blood to "altered." Been wondering how about Firestorm, because he is a nuclear powered being and two men.

Also forgot if Martian Manhunter is immune, than so would be Ms. Martian.
