That sounds hype as fuck, but please tell me that JRJR is only doing the cover.

>>78186600
he is
>>78186558
From the thumbnail, I thought that that was Superman Blue.
>>78186801
Lol me too. That would had been crazy.
>>78186558
looks like he really has to shit and is trying to fly to the nearest toilet as fast as possible without it being obvious
>>78186558
That art is so awful.
>>78186558
does he have a mangina?
Anyone else hate that retarded straight-backed straining pose he's doing? It looks like he was doing dips and then realized he just shit his pants and is really hoping no one else has noticed
>>78186558
>S belt buckle would be reverse from the mirror
>>78187320
Lol, he even reversed the chest shield, but not the belt one.
Based lazy JRJR
>Superman back to full power
Hooray.
>meets pre-Flashpoint Superman
Classic Coke Superman is gonna die, isn't he? Leave behind a wife and a kid.
Well, at least before he goes, Nu52 Clark should ask for his old outfit because the Nu52 one has never looked good.
>>78187972
It's a high selling title so no, just like how SM/WW is still a big seller, they won't end the relationship.
>>78188453
Super,am and Lois isn't a high-seller.
>>78186558
Thank god there'll be an alternative movie cover or whatever.
Is there a chance the book will be good again?
Is the other Superman series worth reading?
>>78188453
They ended the relationship like a month ago.
>>78188969
Action has been the better book throughout Truth but the last arc of Superman with Porter has been fun
So if I only buy Lois and Clark should I pick this up too?
>>78189636
If you want to see them hang out sure. It probably won't be bad.
Isn't Pre-Flashpoint Hal meeting Nu52 Hal too?
>>78190013
Yeah but that's going to get violent real quick
>>78190013
Paralax Hal,, but yes
I'd rather see Thomas Wayne Batman meet with current Bats and jog his memory.
>>78190013
yeah they're going to have hot sex
>>78190013
Do you mean Parallax-Hal? Because I don't believe Hal lost much in the New 52.
>>78190086
Have they confirmed which Hal is going to top?
>>78190013
It's pre-Johns Parallax.
No pokemon of fear, but the real deal.
>>78190086
First we got Dickcest and now we're getting Halcest?
DC is very kind
>>78190107
Wonder if the fear paraite will meet this version.
That'd be a fun confrontation.
Tho. I bet Para-Hal will rip the fear bug apart because of writers.
>>78190091
>>78190057
>>78190107
Yeah I forgot Parrallax made it out. Besides Barry and Supergirl did anyone else make it out after Convergence?
So was convergence any good?
>>78190013
yep
>>78190182
The tie-ins were good but the main book was incomprehensible trash
>>78190091
>Because I don't believe Hal lost much in the New 52.
assuming most of Johns' run is still canon, Coast City still blew up
he's been losing things left and right since Venditti took over though
>>78190099
what do you think they're going to fight about?
>>78190184
Ah-ha. I get it.
Cause he died reigniting the sun.
Wonder if we'll get Spectre Hal to fight Parallax Hal.
>HAL STOP HITTING YOURSELF!
>>78190263
>Ah-ha. I get it.
>Cause he died reigniting the sun.
well and the story arc where he became Parallax was called Emerald Twilight
full circle!
I would love to see Spectre Hal show up just for fun but they seem more intent on sweeping that under the rug
>Parallax believes Hal Jordan has failed this universe—and now, he’s prepared to wipe Hal out of existence! Hal has to get over the shock that Parallax still exists so he can unleash the power of his gauntlet to stop him! It’s a battle neither Jordan can win, and one that will change both forever.
>>78186994
>Superman has explosive diarrhea and he needs to leave the solar system to poop to save the Earth
>>78187972
>Classic Coke Superman is gonna die, isn't he?
No, he's got his own series.
>>78190314
That means new 52 Hal has experienced being Parallax too?
>>78190086
Sinestro is going to pass out with a comically huge nose bleed.
>>78191122
yeah that's still canon
>>78191248
>>78191248
Betcha it will either get ignored or retconned.
>>78191279
What, new 52 Hal being Parallax? Why would they ignore it, it's come up several times already
if they retcon anything it's just going to say that Hal made the fearbug himself and he was never possessed or some shit
>>78190997
His book is a failure. Down to 22k for the #2. If this ends up being a crossover it might save him for a little while at least but they have to write him out eventually. If we're lucky it will just be a wormhole to his universe that his family can go home through and no one has to die.
>>78186558
Well that didn't take long.
>>78186558
What's the explanation for pre-Flashpoint's unstable powers?
>>78191477
Somebody's been fucking with them
We dunno what exactly happened yet, just that he's getting them back by #50
>>78186558
You know what I don't get about DC.
Why can't batman cover his fucking face? The one million batman did it.
>>78191553
Zorro didn't cover his face, but then the Shadow did.
>>78191394
Or he could just live in the background, raise his kid and do small scale threats and occasionally show up for "this looks like a job for more than one Superman" level threats.
>>78186558
Wait how is supes back to full power? Wan't he doing his own thing fighting like gods or something? Did I miss a storytime at some point?
>>78194505
no, that's the cover for Superman #50 that comes out in a few months
He'll get his powers back soon presumably
>>78186558
>No costume change
Blunder of the century
>>78194505
That issue isn't out till March.
The faces of the people inside display my exact feelings of JR JR's art...
>>78187007
Always wondered why people hated JRJr. on here...NOW I see why!
>make a reset button for your comics universe
>ignore it
tip top kek
>>78190013
They've got all this pre flashpoint shit but still won't give us the real Wally? Come on man.
>>78200921
Why would you want Wally if you could have two Barrys instead???
>>78186558
I wouldn't mind if it plays out like when pre flashpoint supes met kingdom come supes
>>78192796
Let's not pretend like that's even an option here. They won't have two of them around.
Would be hype though.
>>78200778
Spider-Man is ruining artists...
Mark Bagleys DC stuff was pretty meh and Humberto Ramos was a decent artist before his Spider-Man work
>>78202159
All that's missing is for them to permanently kill Earth 2 and pretend it never existed, then introduce some time anomaly in Earth-0 which leads to the JL finding some old ass heroes who were trapped there during a fight and erased from people's memories and history. After rescuing them everyone remembers that there was an old team of superheroes during WW2 called the JS.
>>78202455
Ramos stopped being decent halfway through Crimson
>>78186630

>>78189542
"ended"
wait till the arc is over. I'm 90% sure its just for drama, given how little they made of it.
>>78203151
It's possible that the writers just aren't in communication with each other, but it's been mentioned in Yang's book that they're broken up and he even referred to them as "former romantic partners" in an interview yesterday. I doubt he would do all that if it's just a temporary fakeout.

>>78186558
How can you have a meeting with someone whose entire universe never existed because of time travel shenanigans?
>>78204807
Because he ended up on the main new 52 Earth thanks to those same shenanigans
>>78186558
Yo if we're doing these shenanigans then why can't we have good Wally and the Flash family show up?
>>78204856
We only know of four people from pre-Flashpoint that ended up on the main earth, Supes, COIE era Barry and Kara, and Parallax Hal
>>78204807
It did exist though, just not in the history of the current universe. We have the comics on our shelves and in our computers to prove that.
Basically you're not thinking 4th dimensionally enough.
>>78204883
Yeah but everyone was supposed to have survived Convergence, that was kind of the deal wasn't it?
Look man I just want the Flash family back. Batman and his entire brood is kicking around now while we're stuck with shitty black wally and bland ass Barry.
And whatever that thing Bar Tor is.
It would be cool if Pre-Flashpoint Superman gave his suit to the N52 Superman.
>>78186558
>comes face to face with the pre-Flashpoint Kal-El!
how is that possibvle
>>78205032
A couple of select characters were brought into New 52 after convergence, amongst them were Zero Hour Parallax Hal, and Pre-new 52 Superman and Lois.
>>78204942
After the failure of Titans Hunt and Lois and Clark, I don't know if you can expect DC to try to bring more elements of pre-Flashpoint stuff over right away. But Flash needs a creative team change more than it needs to bring the Flash family over into a shit book.
>>78186558
Guessing we're due for another crisis soon or a linewide renumbering.
This seems incredibly odd, just suddenly meeting his multiverse counter part without some sort of event happening. We're also coming around with batman returning to the cowl and Darkseid War ending at #50.
I'm really doubting a long term solution will be having two Kal-el's on the same earth.
Anyway how has Superman been since #40? I stopped reading after John's Arc.
>>78206773
>Anyway how has Superman been since #40? I stopped reading after John's Arc.
The first arc was bad since it mostly recapped shit that was common sense and JRJR was being shitty too. The second arc has been fun though. Clark competing in an underground fight club against gods for taco money.
>>78204541
Cool, but probably won't happen.
