Lebanese are white from all the frogs settling there after the Crusades. There's actually a large Catholic Lebanese diaspora which left when shit started going south fast in the ME.

No, she's a mestiza. I'm a castizo. If you've ever spent time with Latins you know how serious this business is.

Johns writes simplistic, toyetic stories with bland characters that have nothing to say other than "isn't the lore of the DCU interesting you guys".

He is the definitive DC writer.

>toyetic
What does this even mean? Is this the new meaningless /co/ buzzword?
>>
>>78074259
Sounds like Morrison.
>>
>>78071595

Morrison is the best with the Silver Age elements.
James Robinson is the best when it comes to the Golden Age elements.
Geoff Johns does both very well and manages to combine that a sense of wonder and excitement that reminds me of 80s kids movies.

I'd say he's the definitive DC man, but he doesn't excel in specific areas.
>>
>>78071595

Well. He is, which is why I left. It's all surface level, akin to a child smashing action figures together. Every plot beat consisting of a character, or army of characters sneak attacking another while yelling something epic in a colorful voice bubble.

I left DC when Morrison left and the only time they'll get my money is on his projects.

This isn't Scott Snyder

Johns is neck to neck with Peter David as the ultimate super hero comic writer in my opinion, though he's light at best in any original thought or artistic intention.
>>
>>78071595
Infinity Crisis is the last good thing he did. And that's only because of "omg multiverse" and gratuitous continuity porn.

After that his work became rather hacky.
>>
>>78074259
Just like Morrison! They're both great!
