Good evening owls of /co/,
it's time for some fucked-up shit
>>83293115
Hoot hoot! Thanks as always for storytiming, these threads are always the best of nighttime /co/
>it's time for some fucked-up shit
Can't be any worse than the weirdos who constantly and obsessively post about kids cartoons.
I think I talked myself into being interested in Superwoman. When you look at what seems to be the cast on the first cover it's basically a Superbook Birds of Prey. DC should promote it with that in mind (since I don't think anyone is talking about it at all), but I doubt they will.
>>83293115
Yaaaay-wait no
>>83293115
Ha ha, time forincest
>>83293191
I heard Traci Thirteen is going to be in it and now I'm committed to at least checking out the first couple issues.
>>83293180
you're welcome, anon
I really gotta go jogging this evening probably after storytime, though, I'm about to twitch out of my seat
>>83293222
awww shit, now we REAL politics
>>83293234
I'm this close to having a good long drunken breakdown over the dog. I know apparently most dogs adapt, but the crying is killing me.
>>83293258
>>83293191
There was a thread a day or two ago where I talked myself into thinking that's where Legion is gonna continue
>>83293282

>My GenX perspective: really sad when a group of people who shared being beat up by jocks for loving nerd stuff descend upon each other.
Just finished volume 3 before I came to, anyone know when Volume 4 is going to be printed?
>>83293435
Agreed
>>83293469
I can't believe it's still rolling, people got mad at Bendis about it because he was all "wait and see, also I didn't do it?" and he didn't put his foot down as a Jewish writer and proclaim it was off-limits.
>>83293487
>>83293469
Is that really the case though? Seems like half the people who complain about comics and nerd stuff in general these days and dogpile others come off as the types who didn't give a shit about any of that growing up.
>>83293475
Hopefully soon what with the movie coming out this summer.
>>83293469
>a group of people who shared being beat up by jocks for loving nerd stuff
I'm sorry i didn't grow up in an 80's High School comedy
>>83293504
Amazon says July 19, 2016 for Janus Directive SS v. 4
I wonder if it'll have ALL the tie-ins?
>>83293514
The only good thing about that movie is the fact that it forced DC to reprint this run so I can put it on my shelf. I really didn't want to pay 70 bucks for volume 1, I was happy when my lcs had one for 20 bucks instead.
>>83293475
June I believe, although it's a trade of the whole Janus Directive crossover. So Firestorm, Manhunter, Captain Atom, and Checkmate issues mixed in
>>83293538
I was the person who in high school assumed that everyone hated me and was being condescending when they asked me to do anything with them, and it wasn't until my senior year that I realized I was the asshole for turning everyone down and not even trying to make friends.
>>83293553
>Collects CHECKMATE #15-18, SUICIDE SQUAD #27-30, MANHUNTER #14, FIRESTORM #86, CAPTAIN ATOM #30.
n-nice
then v5 in December
>>83293557
Only two issues of the run are actually pricey and not worth buying. Issue #1 and whatever issue Oracle first shows up in. If we can at least get up to that I wouldn't hate having to complete the run in floppies
>>83293612
>Checkmate
Do you think DC could convince Rucka to do Checkmate again or
>>83293612
>still no vol. 3 of Spectre
;______;
>>83293612
that last row of panels is great
>>83293631
I don't wanna retread too hard
anyways, we have to have real CIA write that, right
>>83293115
Lashina was my waifu during the Duchess times.
>>83293651
oh fuuuuuuck
Mainly, okay, I think we've all learned to be really cautious of "X returns to [foo] many years later"; but I still get pissy when whatever that [foo] had done was retconned or somehow wasted, so that no one else could pick it up later.
>>83293694
Pause to marvel at how many subgenres of cape we have already gone through in this few of issues
>>83293694
>oh fuuuuuuck
HAHA Welcome to Ditko land
>>83293736

OP? Have you considered stretching your sigil magic a little farther?

I've tried, but that one and the Starman omnis seems beyond me.

I might brew a character tonight after storytime and the jog I need to take

That's a pretty fucking cool cover.
>>83293951
>>83293909
>tfw suddenly feel bad for having the hardcovers
>>83293981
that's a horrible bowl cut
>>83293294
I feel like it almost has to be Supergirl with the confusion going on with the Supermans and all. She's their best bet at a strong introduction. We thought he was teasing JSA but that could have been what Orlando was tweeting about too.
>>83294055
here comes the incestuous not even subtext
>>83294055
He's rocking the Prince Valiant

Oh mama's sister.

>>83294095
>Bronze Tiger will never be interesting again
I remember being hyped for his Arrow appearance (ya know before the show was just generally shit) and so disappointed that he was a Wolverine rip off with no personality. shit they even had the PERFECT actor playing him
>>83294095
You were saying something about incest?
>>83294158
we not close to full crazy yet
glorious seeing this run in HD
>>83294161
>the family that gets possessed together, incests together
>>83294095
ok then
>>83294179
NOW we incest.
>>83294227
Y'all are right, Enchantress needs the witch hat
>>83294252
>SPAKOW
>>83294252
Where are Bronze Tiger and Nightshade now? Were Boomerbutt and Deadshot the only members to maintain popularity?
>>83294327
now shit's gonna get real
>>83294333
Nightshade hasn't been seen post-reboot
Bronze Tiger was a tiger
>>83294333
apparently BT's only been in Red Hood and the Outlaws so i doubt it was anything worth reading
>>83294363
I like how Bronze Tiger showed up in Grayson all normal
>>83294396
I am behind on Grayson
>>83294445
we really high fantasy here, now
>>83293538
yeah the modern adolescent experience is much more political, Mean Girls for real (even moreso the non-fiction book it's based on)
>>83294363
Not seen huh
>>83294387
Now i'm glad Nightshade wasn't touched
>>83294514
And before that she was last around in Shadowpact, which was great but died and then just made the occasional cameo because some writers remembered them fondly
>>83294514
She shows up in the Earth-4 Pax Americana one-shot in Multiversity, but she doesn't have any powers there, she's just the daughter of a senator who moonlights as a vigilante superhero.
>>83294578
Duchess must be /k/'s perfect waifu
>>83294492
Man, either I went to the wrong high school or I wasn't paying attention.
>>83294578
>>83294584
Added to my pull list
>>83294584
I really liked Pax Americana as a one-shot and as a comic object in and of itself but I've become increasingly uneasy with putting those styles on those characters, IDK.
>>83294659
>>83294659
Eh, it's only the Earth 4 versions of them so I'm not so concerned.
>>83294659
Nightshade>>>>>Silk Spectre
>>83294674
>>83294733
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE
>>83294733
>>83294724
But it might stick, kind of like how Captain Atom was kind of turned into Manhattan and Question got a lot of Rorschach in him.
>>83294782
Aww yiss.
>>83294733
>Larry enjoying the view in panel two
>>83294492
it was fine for boys. The girls were the ones with the slam books and shit
>>83294817
Question I would argue is much more different from Rorschach in Pax. They're both conspiracy-minded, but whereas Rorschach was Objectivist and saw things starkly good/evil and black/white, E4 Question was all about Morrison's pet Spiral Dynamics theories, which incorporates multiple aspects of reality and varied personalities and levels of meaning.
>>83294794
>>83294873
there are so many more ways to tag a girl as a slut these days, tho (and women do it to other women, I know)
>>83294906
>>83294873
You can always pop in to /r9k/ to see today's total outcasts. They're not beaten, but not exactly fine.
>>83294906
I think about three-quarters of the fights I've seen break out with the sixth grade students I teach have been between girls.
>>83294906
If you don't count the Internet, I've seen more women call other women sluts than men.
>>83294926
fuck
>>83295043
>Shade the Changing Man
what
>>83295098
Man, between him and Swamp Thing, is Constantine the only character from Vertigo that was "officially" brought over to the Nu52 that wasn't already there?
>>83295098
It's Ditko day in JSA anon
>>83295043
>stuck in a swirling vortex with a hungover Boomerang
Everyone's going to be covered in vomit, right?
>>83295098
this is pre-Milligan, dude
>>83295135
Didn't Constantine debut in Swamp Thing?
>>83295135
Well Constantine was a pre Vertigo title to begin with
He banged Zatanna and pissed on the Phantom Stranger's shoes
>>83295169
Shade must be a character that artists either love or hate to raw, no middle ground. Like Warlock from New Mutants
>>83295169
the Morrowind heavy mod install fucked up my computer wrt administrator privileges and I'm trying to fix it one shitty help article at a time, sorry
brb
Who can publish Ditko Shade now? DC? I need to look those books up
I should save up for ominibuses or digital Ditko splurge
>>83295196
How prominent was Constantine pre-Crisis? When I read CoIE, he was there, but very prim and proper. Unless I read those scenes wrong.
>>83293115
That green dress is cute, hope Cara wears one
>>83295355
>Who can publish Ditko Shade now? DC?
Yeah it's all in the first Ditko omnibus from DC
The first one has Shade along with all his shorts from anthologies
The second has Hawk and Dove and fill in issues for titles like The legion
And the Creeper has his own hardcover
>>83295389
Pretty much just a Swamp Thing character.
>>83295300
anyone here good at windows 10 administrator account issues? I seem to have given my main account those privileges and want to turn them off, lol

Where?
>>83295751
If I remember correctly the latter happened in Books of Magic.

>>83295894
So I read a lot of Punisher today. Punisher Born which was pretty rad and 200-01 volume of Punisher. It isn't nearly as edgy as I expected it to be. And I can't take Dillon's art a lot of time seriously. Born was seriously good and first volume didn't blow me away but still pretty good. Question, which post Ennis run should I pick up once I'm done with it?
>>83295927
I hope Shade the Changing Girl is good
>>83295851
Bronze Tiger is the best field leader.
>>83295966
>>83296013
>>83295938
did you read Remender with us?
>>83296051
No matter what it is, Waller can roll with it
>>83295785
>>83295751
It was in the Ennis stuff. Also Swamp Thing grew him weed on his birthday
>>83296085
hey look who's there in the back row
>>83296106
>>83296106
LEN!
>>83296144
>>83296229
>dat Dr. Strange 'homage' on the previous page
>>83296144
>>83296229
Well he's in good company at least.
>>83296249
>>83296229
ORC is such a great concept for covering up alien activity. Reminds me of the tabloids being real in Men in Black
>>83296051
No. Is it good? I know Rucka's stuff is good and I can't take Fagtion seriously.
>>83296270
This is great
>>83296087
I love how flustered Swamp Thing was when he showed up.
>"CONSTANTINE, WHAT DO YOU WANT?!"
>"Holy shit, you invited HIM?"
>"Why am I here, Constantine?!"
>"... It's my birthday, mate."
>"Oh. Er, I'm sorry. I don't hate you, it's just..."
>>83296331
it's really brutal Frank vs. the Hood and then it takes a hard right turn into Frankencastle, which is the kind of comics craziness I want to see because it's original and not just reviving some 70s idea
>>83296341
>The Far Side of Science
Well there's a reference I didn't expect to see today.
>>83296377
Do kids these days know about those cartoons?
>>83296405
My dad had one of the anniversary collection of those comics and I remember thinking they were the funniest shit ever when I was 10 years old.
Still do.
>>83296405
You see a few Far Side Collections around, and most science teachers I had in school had a few Far Side clipping on their walls.
>>83296372
Which 70's ideas, OP? Because if a modern writer could manage something as batshit as Starlin's Warlock, I'd read it. Fuck, I'd read a Roy Thomas Warlock, if it's played straight.
>>83296405
>>83296472
I mean, like how something like Capwolf has been cheapened by all the wink-wink nudge-nudge revivals. No, Frankencastle is a genre mashup with the Punisher that hadn't been done. Also, drawn by Tony Moore.
imo Frankencastle is the best Punisher story
>>83296515
thanks for reading, more tomorrow
sorry about the interlude
>>83296515
See, Captain Falcon turning into a werewolf was too self aware. Like I said, I want something to go full 100% COMICS, and play it completely straight.
>>83296106
best boy alert
>>83296536
Also, time to take bets on whether someone asks Steranko about Hydra Cap tonight
>>83296570
exactly, have the faith in your own ideas to make something original that is nonetheless COMICS
>>83296536
Thanks again, anon!
>>83296405
They fucking better.
>>83296515
>by all the wink-wink nudge-nudge revivals
The last decade or so of irony in mainstream comics comics has been awful.
>>83296589

Hey storyteller, late start on this for me tonight. American Ninja Warrior is back! It's like the closest thing to real life superheroes. A dude did a FOUR STOREY SALMON LADDER.
>>83293220
Superior Traci 13: Street Punk, or Chiang style sweatergirl?
>>83298729
punk I think
>>83298698
>FOUR STOREY SALMON LADDER
motherfucker, that's amazing
>>83294674
I just noticed. They're wearing matching outfits.
>>83298805
I actually meant to solicit opinions on which one people liked better.
Both were good!
Punk Traci got to hang out with Cir-El. Sweater Traci dated Jaime and met Infectious Lass.
>>83298956
Yeah I see it now. I know her mainly from BB so I guess sweater for me, but she seems cool enough in the Kelly stuff.
>>83293909
Gotta say, Eve wears it better.
That skirt does nothing for her brother.
>>83294161
>This isn't anything like my /ss/ mangas!
>>83298805
Who's the Super Woman with the glowy eyes?
>>83294333
Nightshade kinda disappeared after Shadowpact petered out with that Reign in Hell series.
>>83299455
Lana most likely
>>83295169
Ah, Rick Flag, continuing his run as Sir Not Appearing in This Issue, I see.
>>83295135
People have been complaining about Vertigo not being a timeline since Flashpoint claimed it was. Because they were right, it wasn't one.
>>83296229
I think this was a plot point in Copra.
Which was just Suicide Squad plus Frank Castle and all the serial numbers filed off.
>>83299182
Yeah, he's too creepy and old-looking to pull off a pleated skirt.
Shade is how i managed to understand Stands in jojo
>>83299887
Copra is like the super smash brothers of 80's superheroes comics
It has all the obvious picks and then you go " Really Haywire? Whatever cool"
>>83299727
Since new 52 is post Flashopoint universe that means Shade origins will merge or what?
