Good evening owls of /co/,
Last four issues of Legion Lost
>>82452547
DC may have fucked up Supes' costume but at least they spared us from this
>>82452547
whoops
oh no not the cosmic butcher
>>82452641
I kinda like the big GL logo across her torso, but the lines radiating out from it? and that weird mask? no thank you
>>82452641
it's so shitty I love it. That mask is perfection
>>82452641
Isn't Van Schiver the guy responsible for bringing back Barry Allen? Guess he's just full of bad ideas
>>82452641
lol what
new orleans, it's time for drinks to go!
>>82452762
he drew GL Rebirth and Flash Rebirth, yes
and yeah he did say this
>EVS: He’s the first Silver Age DC hero. I just love Barry Allen as the Flash. I was the guy who was really pushing to bring him back. When I would be in a cab with Dan DiDio, I would talk to him about the Flash. The series was having a lot of trouble and suffered through three relaunches that failed at the time. I said, “If you’d only let us bring back Barry Allen and let us do Flash: Rebirth, I’m sure we could get that franchise back on track again.” He would reply, “Oh no. He died a hero.” But I think we wore him down after some time, and he began to think it was a good idea. And indeed it was.
>>82452826
>NO IT WASN'T
Read the Culling thread today. It wasn't even close to as bad as you guys made it sound. THE EDGE was just meh and the only real bad part was Harvest, who I just imagined to be going "nuh-uh, I knew that was gonna happen! N-nuh-uh, that was my plan all along! *You're* the loser, l-loser!" Then again I didn't really care care about any of the characters except Tyroc and Bunker, so...
>>82452641
Why do artists have to do weird edgy shit like this?
There is literally nothing wrong with her Power Ring costume
>>82452641
I don't dislike this, it just feels inappropriate to where the character is gonna be at for Rebirth. It's weird, not bad IMO. I mean the design they're going with is so boring.
>>82452861
I think we were colored by having read it within Lobdell TT which was a painful slog beginning to admittedly batshit end
OP is a faggot
>>82452894
They want to make the next memorable design so they throw all their shit to the wall just to see what sticks
>>82452916
If Cruz were transitioning to Space Horror Goddess, it would be appropriate. But...isn't Volthoom going away?
>>82452894
Yeah I liked her jacket on her Power Ring costume and the headband.
They should've kept those things to make her more unique and have her bond with Guy over jackets
>>82452894
I think EVS designed her Power Ring costume too
>>82452920
Ah, that seems likely. I've never touched that mess.
>>82452938
love you too anon
>>82452960
>If Cruz were transitioning to Space Horror Goddess, it would be appropriate.
Yeah, that's basically where I'm at too. I don't know about Volthoom, but I'm guessing so.
>>82452826
I'm really curious at what point he and his brother divided on comics. Ethan is a bland to poor cape artist and his brother works exclusively in the alt scene
It's like knowing that Steve Dillon's brother illustrated the Nao of Brown
>>82452920
>the raison d'etre for this book no longer exists
>>82452961
Why aren't Guy and Jessica friends, anyway? I could see them ganging up on Bazmaybe that way, tooand having a bawdy good time. Jessica really needs to have a not-horrible day or two.
>>82452920
Yeah. I'm not that anon but I found it not much worse than the New Warriors thing it was a clone of. Except without the potential for someone like Ewing to tap the villain to spectacular effect after M-Day. This is where Harvest is the Time Trapper anon cuts in on me.
>>82453020
That's fucking hilarious, the book outlived its very plot so now DeFalco comes up with shitty subplots to fill the remaining issues. And the worst part is that I bet FabNic had an actual plan for the series but left thanks to the infamously horrid early New 52 editorial.
>>82452994
>>82453097
I wonder if there's any record on the internet of comment
>>82453005
That's a good question, it is kinda funny that they went in such different directions
>>82453039
I want all the human GLs to be friends ;_;
>BC: It’s official. After 14 years at Marvel, you’re no longer an exclusive Marvel creator?
>CHO: Yes. My exclusive Marvel contract expired after I turned in my final page for Totally Awesome Hulk #4. It has been a great experience playing with Marvel toys over the years. I’m forever grateful to all my editors, writers, colorists who let me be part of many fantastic books at Marvel – especially Axel Alonso, who took a big chance on me, an unknown syndicated newspaper cartoonist, when he recruited me all those years ago and shepherded me along the way. Also, let me give a big shout out to my friend Scott Sava, who connected me with Axel in the first place.
>BC: Any regrets or characters that you wanted to work on at Marvel but didn’t get the chance during your time at Marvel?
>CHO: Not really. I pretty much worked on all the characters I wanted to work on. My only regret I can think of is that I wished I wrote more for Marvel. I was originally hired as an writer-artist but the editors viewed me and treated me as an “artist” only. I should have been more vocal about my desire to write more.
>BC: What are your plans now that you’re no longer a Marvel exclusive?
>CHO: I’m actually going to be busier now. I have couple of creator-owned books lined up. I’m currently writing and drawing Skybourne for Boom Studios. And World of Payne with my co-creator, Tom Sniegoski, for Flesk Publications. Both of these books will be out by fall. 2016 is definitely the year of creator-owned books for me.
>BC: Can you tell us more about these projects?
>CHO: I don’t want to give too much away, but Skybourne is a cross between Highlander, Game of Death, and Cthulhu. It’s a 5 issue miniseries with sequels already roughly laid out. I wrote the Skybourne story about 10 years ago and I’ve been patiently waiting to tell it. I think BOOM will start promoting it soon.
>World of Payne is a cross between Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter with a dash of Hellblazer. I had a half-baked idea for awhile and asked my buddy Tom Sniegoski to help me with it. Tom, who is a New York Times bestseller novelist, took my half-baked idea and turned it into a fully realized universe. Tom is a freakin’ mind beast is all I can say about that amazing guy. World of Payne will be a new hybrid book. It’s going to be part prose novel and part comic book. I’m very excited for this project since Tom and I have put so much work into it. The first book is called World of Payne: Ghost Dog, which sets everything up and get the ball rolling. Tom and I are partnering with Flesk Publications to kickstart it in few months.
>BC: Anything for DC Comics?
>CHO: Yup. You noticed the Diamond solicitations, I’m the new Wonder Woman cover artist for them. I’ll be doing the next 24 Wonder Woman variant covers. Nei Ruffino, the colorist on my covers, is simply knocking it out of the park with her fabulous color work.
>BC: Wonder Woman sounds like your perfect choice.
>CHO: Wonder Woman is definitely a perfect match for my artistic sensibilities.
>>82453181
>I was originally hired as an writer-artist but the editors viewed me and treated me as an “artist” only
That's hardly surprising seeing how his arc in Savage Wolverine was fucking horrible (lovely art tho).
>>82453139
Somebody desperately needs to adopt Baz into their story. He's got that specific kind of hapless moe.
>>82453119
Cho might be reveling in it, but he's entirely right on the censorship front. That article OP posted yesterday was an embarrassment.
>>82453181
>>82453220
STOP.
>BC: There has been plenty of social media criticism of this. You’re painted as the worst choice for the series – embodying all that is sexist and skeevy about comic books. Is it possible your covers will put women off the comic, or simply send a wrong message about the book?
>As a life-long liberal Democrat and advocate for free speech and equal rights, it fascinates me to see when ultra-liberals become ultra-conservatives where they see injustices everywhere and cease to see reason, and start oppressing people who they disagree with. Thanks to the social media, we have entered into a dangerous era of Salem witch trials where no one is safe. Everything is being attacked everywhere in this hypersensitive atmosphere: The movie Grease (Sexualizes teenagers), Road Runner cartoons (Violence against animals), Game of Thrones. (Promotes rape and injustices against women.) The list goes on.
>I have a huge female fan base. They are absolutely wonderful and they don’t share the hateful political views of Mary Sue and Comic Alliance sites. If you look at the various message board postings, you’ll see multitudes of positive notes of support for me and my art, especially for my Wonder Woman cover project. Let’s face it, I was built to draw Wonder Woman. I’m a huge Lynda Carter fan. I fell in love with her when I first saw her Wonder Woman TV show as a kid. In many ways, Lynda Carter is still the main source of inspiration when I draw women.
>It’s very intimidating following Adam Hughes, Brian Bolland, Dave Finch and other great Wonder Woman artists before me. I’m just super excited right now that I’m drawing her. I have so much love and respect for this character and her potential. My aim is to make Wonder Woman look powerful and beautiful, let everyone see why she’s a true superhero icon. And I hope I don’t let my fans and Wonder Woman fans down.
>>82453246
well, he'll be in GLs with Jessica
getting written by Dogfucker
>>82453246
My heart literally sinks when I look at Baz's design.
>>82453254
Sorry anon.
>>82453119
hah, yeah, Rich Johnston is discussing it with someone on twitter and actually getting a civil discussion out of it, which is amazing
Accordingly someone is getting mad at him for giving Cho a platform which shows that he doesn't care about sexism at all. To which everyone says "You thought BC cared about anything other than clicks???"
I just realized LL wasted their #0 issue on making Timber Wolf an off-brand Batman when they could have used it to retcon Tyroc's awful origin.
>>82453301
For me, it's rolled back around to hilarious. It's like a sad henchman look.
>>82453356
Or Dawny's
>>82453346
No problem. Sorry OP. >The comic book market is a vast and bountiful table. There’s a place for everyone. One group, because they don’t like something, should not dictate what others can see and enjoy. That’s simply wrong. If they don’t like something, then don’t look at it or buy it.
>>82453356
I know, right?
This thread is kind of amusing for the "Cho has a female audience? Must be small, because I don't believe any right-thinking woman would like his stuff"
(twitter) richjohnston/status/727522270541959170
sorry, anons, I just find the peoplewatching on this topic fascinating
>>82453137
>>82453346
>thought bubbles
Weren't they using narration boxes for this sort of thing before?
>>82453421
>>82453448
I think so
>>82453406
Dawny is in that sad position where if you don't say anything about her people to contradict it, it's assumed she's still a Halloween Indian in space.
I mean, that's what you get when you put her in tassels every single time...
>>82453421
>never saw them, they probably invisible
>No, but they aren't a demo to go after. they are minority.
haha what? "the women who like Cho don't say anything so there aren't enough of them to matter!" ahh yes what a feminist train of thought
>>82453421
>right-thinking woman
Wow, thanks for telling me I think wrong.
>>82453421
I don't even understand where this Cho controversy came from. He drew sexy women so...
He's been doing it for years. His shit just suddenly blew up and he thought like a sensible commercial artist who isn't too politically involved and exploited the hell out of it. And people now are like attacking his agenda? His personality? He's some sort of Satanic meninist figure? No, he's just some fucking guy.
If you want to rail against sexualised or disenfranchised women in art there are so, so many worse people you could pick on that Cho. Leaving Marvel for Boom! doesn't sound like a great financial move for him though.
>>82453400
I just can't get behind it at all. There are great characters with relatively boring designs like, I mean, Hal. Guy. Brainy here in LOSH. But Baz is just ugh.
>>82453421
I really don't understand the Cho backlash to the point where people are offended by his existence. His women are generally just really hot to me rather than consistently posed improperly. Like he's no worse than someone like Amanda Conner to me.
>>82453543
>Leaving Marvel for Boom! doesn't sound like a great financial move for him though.
I dunno, I think his recent surge in popularity was probably big enough to let him do well on creator owned stuff
also I wouldn't be surprised if he picks up a bit more DC stuff in the future
>>82453517
>>82453526
this is why when making feminist arguments myself, I try to avoid a blanket "Women want" and definitely avoid the false-consciousness argument
>>82453543
I think I'm most offended by the casual equation of Berganza, an actual abuser of women who's had a chilling effect on his office, with someone who's offended via drawings which are (shock) not real
>>82453543
The Spidergwen guy got hardcore trolled and started on the daughterfu train, and it got cringey from there.
100%, if that guy just ignored it, we wouldn't be here talking about this.
>>82453610
>Like he's no worse than someone like Amanda Conner to me.
Nail on the head.
>>82453611
Yeah, it could be that.
>>82452980
Oh yeah, and I made this while reading.
>>82453543
Yeah I am slightly confused as to why Cho gets it when just about every other artist has done cheesecake or beefcake at some point. I mean him poking fun with the OUTRAGE thing probably helped and his variants and commissions being posted was the main problem.
Though I do remember one pic Tarr did and posted to twitter, and a couple people replied to it saying things like "that doesn't help anyone" "you're as bad as they are", etc, and Tarr was just like "wtf I'll do what I want"
>Leaving Marvel for Boom! doesn't sound like a great financial move for him though.
He probably gets a LOT from commissions now and can stand to do variants and a creator owned thing for a little while.
>>82453610
When is there going to be an Amanda Conner witchhunt?
>>82453635
That one comment in that twitter feed all:
>Well, you've certainly given his fans a place to converge & bitch about anyone who finds him to be offensive.
>I doubt that sincerely. It gives them an echo chamber that makes them think it's okay so see women as sex objects & makes
STEP AWAY FROM THE INTERNET.TXT
>>82453611
He said he's gotten more interest from this controversy stuff than he ever had before and he's got more offers than he can do
WTG, people who got mad at him
>>82453705
Never, because she's a woman, so she's allowed to sexualize other women.
>>82453733
this plot is so stupid
>>82453610
>Like he's no worse than someone like Amanda Conner to me.
The only thing that sets him apart is deliberately poking them (OUTRAGE), but yes, he's literally just any other artist.
Hell, Marcus To has drawn DC dudes kissing, Dick as a stripper or something, and Dick and Tim having a pillow fight. And Hughes makes a living off of variants and sexy commissions now.
>>82453819
like, this space barbarian is pretty fucking out of nowhere
>>82453691
Thank you anon.
>>82453635
>I think I'm most offended by the casual equation of Berganza, an actual abuser of women who's had a chilling effect on his office, with someone who's offended via drawings which are (shock) not real
Stuff like this is why I'm certain so much of this shit is performative rather than people actually caring and having empathy for others. They just like being part of call-out culture.
>>82453837
>Dick as a stripper or something
hell, there was literally a variant cover of the JL dudes as strippers
>>82453846
He seems pretty rad though NGL
>>82453733
That fat 1k check would have been a good mic drop if it were in any way the end to this silliness. Because I don't know a single actual sexist who donates that amount of digits.
>>82453846
>>82453878
I mean, I get pretty fucking tired of stuff like Bleez's Talking Ass. But I'm not going to pretend it means anything the same as someone who does IRL shit.
>>82453980
>>82454005
Holy crap, Gates needs to do this more often. He's so right it hurts.
honestly I don't hate the idea of this undercover Yera plot
>>82454050
Gates is the fucking best
>>82452547
Hello Storyteller.
I gotta fix my damn sleep schedule.
>>82454050
>>82454005
I'm imagining a Legion spin-off where Gates is Scully. But who would be Mulder?
>>82454079
Superboy got beefy!
>>82454063
I wouldn't hate it either IF WE EVER GOT SOME FUCKING RESOLUTION. BUT WE DON'T. SO FUCK THIS SHIT. DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M YELLING? GOOD.
>>82454115
I still hate his costume so much
>>82454079
Continuity question: Are we still on L3W canon, where this is Reboot/post-Original LeLo Gates hitching a ride out of obligation to balance out this world's WASP Legion, who legitimately met Superman and spent like a year in the mid-90s?
Because that particular flavor of Gates knows how it works.
>>82454115
This book feels so fucking 90's.
>>82452938
>>82452994
I dunno. Storyteller always came across as bisexual if anything.
>>82454179
should be
>>82454179
Yep.
>>82454179
Frankly, I have no fucking idea. The ending to LOSH heavily implies this isn't Retroboot though.
>>82454203
don't judge their love, bigot SP dude
>>82454179
It's the same Gates but technically that version of Superman and Gates' associated adventures never happened in this timeline. Whether he remembers it like that or has some different new 52 adventure in his memory instead is unknown
>>82454203
So...Gates theoretically still remembers the entire previous universe, but never mentions it because he doesn't give two figs about timelines and continuity?
why doesn't morrison use this magnificent little bug
>>82454222
>The ending to LOSH heavily implies this isn't Retroboot though.
Though Lemire obviously ignores that when they were used in JLU outside of a few details. It's the Retroboot team with some of the Reboot team mixed in.
>>82454251
I think he sounds a little jealous desu. That PURE ENERGY is bolded.
>>82454260
Morrison is too pleb to write the amazing Gates
>>82454309
So, in other words, a complete and utter clusterfuck.
>>82454367
yep! but if/when the LOSH comes back, another reboot from the ground up would be a huge mistake, i think
>>82454413
Didn't a different New52 LOSH show up in a Justice League book?
>>82454413my ideal situation would be for things to pick reboot back up where we left off, with some modifications to make it sleeker and less jan bodyswitch madness
>>82454468
I think Wildfire and Dawny were in some parts of FE?
>>82454251
>What kind of relationship can a woman like that have with a being of pure energy?
They'll make it work.
>>82454260
>>82454330
>Morrison Legion
Yeah, let's not. WWEO was solid, but I don't even want to think of Legion of Super-Heroes: META META META Edition.
>>82454523
oh yeah, I think they were part of the JL in the futures end one shots?
>>82454413
>Gentlemen, they're playing our song...
Freak on a Leash?
Crawling?
Some sort of nu metal, right?
>>82454523
I'm just dying to find out from when our JSA is going to come
Early 60s? Second-gen era thanks to Roy Thomas? post-crisis but pre-Zero Hour? Alan in the fucking lantern suit?
>>82452920
>Completed our primary objective
When did they quarantine and cure the hypertaxis?
>>82454572
c-c-c-c-c-copypasta
>>82454413
I want the Lemire lineup and no reboot when they come back. Introduce new ones if you want rookie factor, that's probably the only good thing Levtiz did during his Retroboot run.
>>82454546
Zenith was basically Morrison doing a British Legion of Super-Heroes for a solid two books of its run anyway.
>>82454572
>Alan in the fucking lantern suit?
that would be quite the monkey's paw
>>82454413
All you'd have to do is go by JLU and pretend all that "TONIGHT, A LEGIONNAIRE DIES!!!" crap didn't happen.
>>82454468
Justice League United. To say they appeared in that is an understatement. They pretty much hijacked the book.
>>82454572
40s jsa ??
>>82454546
Morrison had two issues of them in his Action run that were fine iirc. I mean it might get kind of meta since it's Morrison but probably not too bad.
>>82454589
Bendis would be proud of this level of laziness.
>>82454609
I would seriously take Alan in the lantern suit if it brought back Rick and Jesse and the other kids intact as well. Lantern suit is infinitely fixable.
>>82454639
That was yet another New 52 Legion since they were adults that went by Cosmic Man, Saturn Woman and Lightning Man.
>>82454572
The Thomas era was underrated, and I love multigenerational stuff. They need to maintain the pact, though, we get straight Alan and we can't not get Todd.
>>82454682
>>82454682
>implying gates doesn't hate beaches and summer weather with the fire of one thousand homes lit by the socialism regime
DEFALCO
>>82454702
Pretty sure it used the same costumes for them as kids that Levitz did in the Secret Origin mini. I would count that as an editor miscommunication rather than another version.
This is worse than the Culling because it's just really boring IMO.
>>82454711
And Len JSA is also underrated. God damn editorial.
>>82454711
I know someone who will accept only pre-crisis Thomas era, but I am personally more attached to how the kids came out post-crisis and have less attachment to Peej, no attachment to Huntress, and almost none to Fury.
Agreed though if we get straight Alan he needs the marriage and the kids. I was 100% down with Young Gay Alan but the E2 gestalt is fucked.
>>82452641
this is several levels of bad
but the costume we got i still hate
>>82454682
that's fair, I was thinking about how lousy the JSA had been by the time he was in the Lantern suit but most of that would have been fixable
>>82454767
Ti'Julk hasn't even done of his trademark political ranting ever since he got to this universe. Poor bastard is even more the team bus than usual.
>>82454777
I wish they'd stop trying to build suspense about whatever's going on with Harvest. Nobody gives a shit about that annoying cunt.
>>82454870
>>82454922
it was all fixable
>>82454711
I was planning on hunting down a ton of issues for Infinity Inc and the All Star Squadran issues where they are introduced on Free Comic Day. The $1 back issues bins are buy 5 get 5 free
Last year I bought a ton of L.E.G.I.O.N.
>>82454973
>>82454628
40s JSA would be a trip, young men then
>>82454980
Early II with McFarlane is fantastic. Hope you get lucky.
>>82454999
Wonder Secretary.
>>82454980
I am ready for ABC's bin sales to get a ton of L.E.G.I.O.N.
>>82454879
I'd rather have a mediocre and bland costume than an overdesigned piece of crap
>>82454870
>>82454973
Why bother with an alliance? Dude could easily use his plot armor to take out all of these enemies.
Harvest is totally "THAT KID". Hate villains like that.
>>82454999I will only accept that if Alan goes vintage, full old-hollywoodgay
>>82455027
I am also admittedly fond of a JSA where Bats/Supes/Wondy basically don't/never existed along side them
so I guess I'm a post-Crisis person at heart
>>82455095
>>82454999
I'm wondering if they'll do 40s JSA yanked to modern era
>>82455122
how did I miss that he's NATHANIEL ADYM
BOOOOOOOOOO
>>82455025
I was sold on it as soon as I saw Mister Bones
>>82455095
I am fond of that too, if only because when the trinity are around the story automatically focuses on them and I'm sick of it
I also liked the post-crisis JLA origin that omitted them and added Black Canary
>>82453543
>Leaving Marvel for Boom! doesn't sound like a great financial move for him though.
Did nobody tell him Boom! is terrible at paying people?
https://fairpagerates.com/year-in-review-2015-survey-results/
Look at all the complaints about Boom!
>When Airboy #2 was published, it caused a social media storm. The comic showed the creators, or rather depraved versions of themselved, tripping with a fictitious comic book character and engaging in a variety of sexually debauched fashions.
>Including a trip to a bar frequented by drag performers. The comic was criticised for using them as cynical plot devices to be used, to have sex with, to be outraged by, without having any particular motivation of their own. And some unfortunate choices of language, especially James Robinson’s use of the word “tranny” more in the UK for “transvestite” than the US use of the term for “transexual”.
>Well, with the hardcover out last week – the motivations may remain unchanged but some of the language has been modified.
>Dropping the “not girls”…
>>82455177
>the story automatically focuses on them and I'm sick of it
ding ding ding 100% agreement
>>82455165
It's possible. My ideal situation is older because I kind of want them with more of their history on them, the idea being that they are the same characters as from the Golden Age unbroken
this would, of course, make some people really mad if they're all straight white men, still
>>82455095
I prefer my team books to be more C list focused. I want the characters who couldn't sustain a solo
I'm like the anti Bendis
>>82455316
>>82452547
I'm ready for disappointment... after SHIELD.
>>82455271
huh, I'm not surprised but I am a little disappointed they tweaked the script
>>82455339
>>82455316
They're the most open-minded Republican Grandpa Squad ever, not that it's obvious. Someone once tried to complain to me about Ma Hunkel being their housekeeper, not realizing she was (at the time) an unpowered, lonely old octogenarian who loved superheroics and loved being around her friends and family.
>>82455252
He can just draw some more butt commissions and he'll be ok
>>82455426
two issues left
>>82455316
>this would, of course, make some people really mad if they're all straight white men, still
I don't really see why this is an issue. Even in universe, they're from an older generation. That's kind of the point. Even the Trinity has been rather consistently been portrayed since the first Crisis as being the front-runners of the second generation of heroes, with the JSA and such being the OGs. It was the 40s, so of course they were all white dudes.
>>82455457
What's up after this?
>>82455498
rest of LOSH proper; after that, kind of unsure
>>82455482
Unless you like, retcon in Amazing Man or something.
>>82453635
This red guy is a shit character.
>>82455482

they could always keep Alan gay, use Amazing Man or Jakeem Thunder, and add a lady to the lineup (Firebrand? Libby?)
I mean it wouldn't appease the "all teams should be 50% female and 25% LGBT and 25% POC" crowd but it's good enough

They could swap Nider for Beth Chapel. Beth checks so many checkboxes and she's not even a bad character. You could write hella stories about a black surgeon in the 40s.
>>82455597
Look at that exposition. They even lampshade it.

Beth Chapel is great. Make her their Batman, it would be great. I hate you for making me think of what I'll never have.
>>82455682
I liked Johnny Thunderbolt.
>>82455724
Squad is also always good
>>82455598

Yeah, that works. And maybe Matthew as well(Do androids count towards the diversity quota?)

Okay, you guys didn't hear me before. See, those people are radicals, and you should not listen to them. These folks are looking for problems where they do not exist. The first generation of heroes who originate from the 1940s being mostly straight white guys? Not a problem, since that makes sense. It's the 40s.

They should use Beth just because there aren't nearly as many medically inclined superheroes around.
Every team needs a medic.

Fuck that Eclipso shit for killing her and Yolanda off. What the fuck was the point of that? Just to shill yet another edgy 90's villain/antihero? God fucking dammit I hate that shit.
>>82455999
Eclipso was maximum edge
also Pedoseid

I was actually asking, but go ahead and make tired ass "LOLWILSON" jokes so you don't have to strain that tiny little excuse for a brain, you poor dear.

Why can't there be Dr. Mid-Nite Inc.? It makes way mores sense than Batman Inc.

You're calling someone stupid when you're asking whether robots count as an ethnic minority? Are you concerned about all the robot children who grow up without mechanical heroes?

>>82456180

I wish for once Wildfire blew up and everyone but the Legion looked up in horror. I mean, they gotta be used to shit by now, right? Especially Dawny.
>>82456025
So did Rampage and Warblade have a nasty breakup or something?
>>82456092
I legit love it but I wasn't sure if it would be your fare. I mean, Alice in Wonderland by way of Wayne Barlowe sprinkled with a theology and wuxia mash-up. It's one of these series where I was instantly sold on it for the duration at a particular moment, which doesn't happen to me with everything I enjoy - if you're interested, it'sthe second meeting of 82 White Chain and Deliciousand I'd encourage anyone trying it out to at least read to that point.
You should check out Unsounded too and see if that interests you. You can pretty much skip the first chapter, and it has a shaky start with a lot of unstated plot stuff to figure out, but once it hits speed with some of characters it's a great ride.
>>82454523
That's a hell of a racist Chinese impression, Brin. Almost as bad as Supes'.
>>82456252
Must have!
>>82456092
It's very cool. I'm not the type to follow webcomics as a matter of maintenance, but it's got all that solid effort put into it.
>>82456309
Very depressing to think of how young the creator is!
>>82456283
>>82456243
I can kind of excuse Dawny, it's the principle of the thing. You should at least pretend to be horrified when your boyfriend blows up.
>>82456069
No idea. Again, the concept of active team medics is extremely rare in cape fiction for whatever reason. Capes should take a clue from RPGs and invest in dedicated healers.
>>82456152
>Well I personally don't count androids towards diversity quotas
Fair enough. Not human, so they have little to do with human diversity, I suppose.
>Chill, anon
Why? I shouldn't have to put up with my favorite sci-fi concept being reduced to a stupid joke just because of one hack writer. Kiss my ass.

>>82456427
>>82456276
Also it's possibly the only webcomic ever where I don't mind a text update instead of a full page, cause those stories are good. The Lie of the Water House and Prim Leaves Her Father's House in particular.
>>82456367
>No idea. Again, the concept of active team medics is extremely rare in cape fiction for whatever reason. Capes should take a clue from RPGs and invest in dedicated healers.
It would make sense, but then you'd probably get power creep and they'd be TOO useful and then they'd have to fuck off
like Elixir
>>82456467
An extremely effective healer is just an excuse to get away with fucking up your main guys real bad. This is the lesson of Wolverine.

>OH MY GOD, WILDFIRE EXPLODED!
>Legion: Dammit, Drake. Not again.
>Dawny: .... Uh, I mean, Oh no, Drake. Why?
By the way, during The Culling, I think the writers were unaware that Drake doing his little Final Flash thing wouldn't kill him, since they played it up as a heroic sacrifice. That would inconvenience him at worst.
>>82456452
>>82456496
an effective healer lets you play Suicidal Squall as your main battle tactic

Tales of Symphonia, Raine never leaves my party. Because I'm trying to win.
Same goes for Princess Peach. Super Mario RPG. She is fucking broken.
>>82456467
They don't necessarily need actual healing powers, they can just be medical professionals who use regular medicine. Sadly, you're still right, and most writers couldn't pull it off.
>>82456641
Hi COMPUTO.
>>82456656
Seeleysquad, two Ewing books, a chance to see what Zub's bringing to Thunderbolts

Only a man with a destroyed hand could make Hobo Hal look good.
>>82456940
I keep thinking you're talking about Snowflame.
>>82456957
>Hobo Hal
somehow every person who got to draw Hobo Hal either made him look like a homeless guy in a wig or a tranny
>>82456968
There's the guy from Angel Love, too
>>82456940
He looks like he's on cocaine, but doesn't act like it at all. :(
>>82457018
>>82452641
This just looks like it would be drawn completely differently in basically every panel.
>>82456911
>Time to boogie, Psykill!
I miss when Warblade was a good guy. Really don't see why they made him evil.
>>82456859
Anyone else annoyed that the new book is called "Hal Jordan and The Green Lanterns", and yet it's a Hal solo book? It's like they're not even hiding they don't give a shit about the space cop premise.
>>82457047
Zirch had some choice comments for "costumes you have to have the reference in front of you at all times for" today
>>82452820
So I guess everybody but Drake found their old clothes at some point or something?

well I want a Hal solo but I don't like that literally every other character is getting crammed in there too, there's no room to breathe
