Maybe one of these days he'll save us from this living hell of Dogfucker.

We need saving from this dumb as fuck Emotional Reservoir running out thing. Dumbest idea possible. Just doesn't work in the least.
>>
>>81415397
Venditti stopped referencing it or even acknowledging it pretty quickly. I think he understands how stupid it is.
>>
>>81415269
Personally I'm kind of mad he didn't say his favorite is Grayson. How dare he.

This is why GL fags deserve the worst

We already have a King thread
>>
>>81415463
That and because most of them are degenerate Halfags anyway.
>>
>>81415269
Y-yes he will ;_; he clearly likes writing GL stuff, he'll be on the titles some day!

Venditti himself started ignoring that ages ago

Anon, he has a pretty extensive resume of shit. Most recently his Cosmic Marvel stuff. It's safe to assume he's going to fuck this up.

Ah, true, one of the worst type of scum

I would be 100% okay with this

You have not seen one issue, not even a page. You are just confirming that Halfags/Lanternfags are retarded.
>>
>>81415604
Why would Halfags be mad about Humphries, he's writing Jessica and Simon

Hey, if he blows it out of the park I'll be the first one to eat my own words. But the fact is, he doesn't have a good track record. I have no hope and I'd be the saying the exact same thing if he was on any other book. Besides, Hal isn't even in this book. It's Simon and Jessica which just further makes me wary of this.
>>

I'm just stating the well-documented fact that Halfags are retarded.

>>81415269

So why is he not writing GL? I'm a batfag but even I can see Hal is a much better fit for him.

He could use the help more as well.
>>
>>81416252
If his first arc is well liked then he'll end up like Snyder: popular and able to write whatever he wants later
>>
>>81416117
What an adorable murderbabby.
>>
>>81416076
/co/ hates everything once it becomes popular.
>>
>>81416252
Batman is the biggest, most high profile book at DC. DC like Tom King and want to see him succeed (hence the exclusive contract) and so they decided to put him on Batman to make him a more well known name. And as a fairly new writer in the business when you're offered Batman, you don't say no. Besides it's not like writing Batman is a chore for him, he probably still enjoys it and has stories to tell in that corner of the DCU.
>>
>>81416406
That explains all the BvS backlash.
>>
>>81416076
>no hate for King in this thread
>why must /co/ turn on King
Fuck off with your persecution complex.
>>
>>81416621
The only person I've seen legitimately dislike King on this board (and not just be indifferent) is the arabic literal child
>>
>>81416822
Even then you can't say it's legitimate dislike for King and more just butthurt over the treatment of his/her favourite child
>>
>>81415430

The whole thing kinda reeked of editorial to me. It being connected to all the other lanterns and the subsequent elimination of them really sucked. Were people really tired of all the different lanterns?
>>
>>81415604

Dude has been pretty shit on everything he's written. I am interested in them exploring Volthoom and where he came from. Was that ever explained? He was just some random astronaut, presumably from Earth 3?

Maybe he'll write another DC cosmic stealth mini with a Lantern joining another team, like Guy on LEGION or John joining the Darkstars. I'd be up for that.
>>
>>81415604
This guy is being overly aggressive, but I agree with him.

Lots of dudes who were shit at Marvel, ended up being pretty great at DC.

Prime Example: Rob Williams. Give him at least an issue. Besides, he's co-writing the first issue with Johns and iirc, Johns is keeping a very close eye on these books editorial wise.
>>
>>81415604
Humphries get the fuck off of 4chan you dogfucking piece of shit
>>
>>81419024
>Rob Williams
What did he do at Marvel?
>>
>>81415698
Why? Because we like our main lanterrn to be flawed and three dimensional?
>>
>>81416076
We do?
>>
>>81421323
That horrible horrible latina Ghost Rider series.
>>
>>81421520
But Hal is the least dimensional and less flawed out of all the Lanterns (excluding the ones that don't count from the New52). His only depth is >muh dad.
>>
I don't want dog fucker or venditti!
>>
>>81417498
I know event fatigue was setting in since that's all GL has been since Sinestro Corps Wars, and the other corps were a big part of them all, but I'd hardly say they needed to fuck off as much as they did
>>
>>81422044
>But Hal is the least dimensional and less flawed out of all the Lanterns
but that's wrong you ding dong
>>
>>81416575
Except /co/'s hatred of BvS is actually extremely mainstream. Most people didn't like it. If /co/ wanted to be contrarian they would say that BvS was amazing and TDK sucked.
>>
>>81423764
True. Johns managed to reduce Stewart down to like 0.25 dimensional somehow.
>>
>>81422158
nobody does, anon

I have no idea how the fuck Venditti is still on GL
>>
>>81415463
You're right, let's not complain about Civil War II, no issues have come out yet but surely Bendis will deliver for once :^)
>>
>>81422044
No, his flaws are that he's headstrong, stupid and irresponsible. Outside of GL: Rebirth and that one Darkseid War tie-in comic from a while ago, I can't even remember a time where he brought up his Dad.

Regardless he's still better than John Stewart.
>muh marines
