Identity Crisis is fine for me, but

>pretty much committed murder and helped murder
>gets sent to Arkham

why
>>
Because she was LOCO.
>>
>>80773774
insanity plead doesn't work that way

also it was implied Ray brought her there
>>
Did the murders take place in Gotham?
>>
>>80773850
only Drake's death
>>
>>80773867
Which was comitted by Captain boomerang.
>>
>>80773792
Wasn't it also implied that she was gangraped by the guards while she was there.
>>
>>80773888
wouldn't helping murder also put you in jail

in any case she shouldn't be in Arkham but in a prison

There's some unfortunate "hysterical" woman vibes to this scene.

I feel sorry for you.

I was able to swallow the stupidity.

Until Issue 7.

Are you implying women aren't hysterical?
>>
So uh, is Hawkman having weird big eyes a normal thing? I always thought he had normal eyes.
>>
Nothing about Jean Loring being the killer made sense.
>can't be insane because all her crimes are premeditated
>if she isn't crazy than she has no motive to why she killed Sue
>>
>>80773743
All you have to do in the DCU to get off on an insanity plea is act "kooky" and say you're insane. And if you insist you're not insane that's taken as proof that you're insane. It's a reverse Catch-22.
>>
>>80774102
It's the mask.
>>
>>80774102
Sometimes he has lenses in his helmet. Unless he was drawn like that without the helmet, in which case they just fucked up.
>>
>>80774070
The scene just makes me remember how back in the old days Husbands could just drop their wives off at an asylum.
>>
>>80774173
Exactly, hence while 1-6 had stupid shit, they were tolerable but 7 really crapped it out
>>
>>80774226

The fuck? Are you saying you're almost a hundred years old?

Well 4chan is 18+ only.

It's pretty obvious Ray was going to be the killer but then someone in editorial backed out. Just look at Ray's face in the final few pages of issue 6.

You wish legbeard.

Oh yeah, since we're talking about a comic with Dr. Light

The heroine version uses the same powers and costume I noticed. Are they related or something?
>>
>>80774311
Nope. She's Japanese and was supposed to be the new Dr.Light for a post-crisis world.
>>
>>80774302
>This princess wears running shoes
>Because glass slippers would fucking shatter with such a fat fuck wearing them
>>
>>80773743
The only Arkham patient who actually belongs there is Two Face.
>>
>>80774311
Well now they are because Johns made them husband and wife in the nu52, instead of doing the smart thing and making Dr.Light a Japanese woman.
>>
>>80774070
>>
>>80774394
fucking nu52
fucking Geoff Johns
>>
>>80774311
I don't think they actually had anything to do with each other in-universe. I believe it was her dad who made her costume and gives her powers in COIE but I'd have to reread.
>>
>>80774355
That fatty has never run in her life, maybe she broke into a jog for three steps when she saw some cake but I bet she stopped once the chest pains kicked in.
>>
>>80774426
It was The Monitor who gave her powers I think.
>>
>>80774423
I het what he was doing, cleans the character palette by having him to be a loving family man instead of a man who loves to rape families.
>>
And then she became host to God's former Angel of Vengeance.
>>
>>80774628
Eclipso was also a pretty pointless villain
>>
>>80774660
How do you figure?
>>
>>80773774
Arkham Asylum has an absolutely abyssmal history of helping its patients get better.
Why didn't they send her to one of the dozens of other mental institutions in America? She doesn't even live anywhere near Gotham.
>>
>>80774696
she didn't do nothing in Countdown and Final Crisis

Mostly it was weird pigtails Marvel Girl doing the job
>>
>>80774628
The only Eclipso design that I like.
>>
>>80774720
Oh I thought you meant Eclipso in general.
>>
>>80774746
Yeah I was referring to Loring Eclipso
>>
>>80774311
They were originally completely unrelated. Robinson tried to explain it as her father inventing the suit and Arthur stealing it. In the New 52 they're married and Arthur isn't Dr. Rape.
>>
>>80774781
Agreed. She maybe the sexiest eclipso yet but she's also the dullest and Eclipso is already pretty boring.
>>
>>80774294
Wait, that wouldn't make sense, wouldn't Loring realize it Ray tying him up

You don't end a whodunnit with such a retarded nonsensical twist. With a mystery if the conclusion isn't good it ruins the whole shebang.

>>80775014
Or the fact that Ray would have no possible motive to kill Sue Dibny though that didn't stop Jean Loring.

Things DC could've done but chosed not to.
>>
>>80775254
I don't read a lot of mystery novels. What's wrong with it and why should I care?

It's not like she didn't have a motive.
>>
>>80775720
She didn't have a motive though.
>>
>>80773792
If DC portrayed the insanity defense realistically, half of Arkahm's inmates wouldn't be there.

>>80773850
Arkham is, like, the only mental institution in all of the United States within the DC Universe for some reason.
>>
>>80775254
like I said 1-6 was fine, 7 screwed the pooch and I'd like to pretend it doesn't exist
>>
>>80775720
>What's wrong with it
Fucking a lot. We have medical experts not be able to tell what really killed Sue, we have forensic experts who couldn't tell the difference between fuels and we have multiple red herrings that seems to suggest that not even the author knew who the killer really was.
>>
>>80774781
But Eclipso is a sucky villain.
>>
>>80774302
She's all
>Am I about to be eaten?
>>
>>80774781
She had a pretty great appearance in Blue Beetle and got her ass kicked by his hot magical girlfriend.
>>
>>80774070
Is that tumblr or /v/?
>>
>>80777556
Traci 13 is best girl to the point that not even best boy Jaime deserves her.
>>
>>80775902
Same with forever evil
>>
>>80773910
By that logic I guess the Joker belongs in prison too.
>>
>>80777941
He does.

In terms of things not going according to plan? This was definitely not her day.
>>
>>80773792
She didn't plead insanity.

But she WAS insane.

They'll put people in psyche holding until they're capable of standing trial.
>>
>>80773743
I want DC to make an event where all the older superheros go through a mid life crisis and do things to appear younger.
>>
>>80778452
I loved that page, it subtly explained exactly what makes Jamie a hero.
>>
>>80775720
If you read mystery novels, you should know that the evidence should lead up to the conclusion. The evidence in Identity Crisis has nothing to do with the mystery, what little evidence there even is.
>>
>>80774660
>>80774696
The problem is Eclipso is one of those nigh omnipotent types so it really makes no sense how he ever loses.

I mean I guess you can just say God wills that he lose, but that's just really cheap.

I mean this is how the penultimate issue ends and the next one start with IT'S NOT RAY followed by an entire issue of talking and poor motives
>>
>>80773908
What?
>>
>>80778856
>but they didn't have the balls to do it
They didn't do that because it would be the worst character assassination ever committed in the history of everything. I like that page because it made everyone think it was Palmer.
>>
>>80778856
You can never trust faces in comic books. Over the last few years there have been a lot of panels where Peter looks evil due to shading. I'm not talking about Superior either.
>>
>>80774423
Naw, this was a pretty solid change. Arthur needed the cleansing.
>>
>>80774302
Is Belle wearing a wig or that's legit?
