Being a well adjusted person is realizing neither of them make sense.

Oh yeah, I remember when I turned 12 too. Cute.

Childhood is thinking episodes I-III of star wars are prequels. Adulthood is knowing that they're actually sequels to Harry Potter

I really do like Ross' Morrisson Brainiac.
Justice has my favourite Joker too.
>>84102494
I actually think it's pretty cool and prefer it to the werecheetah we usually get.

Jesus, the neck on that Black Manta.
Always did like that Toyman design a whole lot though.

Been a minute since I've read this but that's exactly what she does. It's pretty great.
I really wish I could just find this online somewhere. I really want to read it again.

He's pretty great.

Thanks. Suppose the green glow should have tipped me off.

>Jesus, the neck on that Black Manta.
His head is actually inside the neck part of the helmet, the big red eyes are just laser emitters, and he sees through cameras on a built-in display instead of eye holes.
That's bullshit that I just made up, but it might as well be the case.
I just realized how few miniorities are on both sides of the DC Heroes in the line ups
I better alert Twitter and Tumblr about this

How is Joker "super-sane" again?
Why is Batman not diagnosed as insane?
Why do they both act crazy when they both supposedly "not" crazy in their universe?
Why is Superman too powerful?
Why does Lex Luthor have more than one origin story for his baldness?
Why doesn't Batmanrape thePenguin?
>>84102737
I always assumed that was the case. He has a normal head when the helmets off

Toy was the one I didn't recognize, thanks.

Villains are the true heroes of comics.
Without villains there is no conflict, and without conflict there would be no story.
If you write a Batman story with a predictable villain, then the story would be boring and nobody would give a fuck. But if you write a villain that actually challenges Batman and makes you feel something then people will love it.
Ergo, villains are the true heroes

street level thugs don't count them?
or just mobster boss?
those kind of shit isn't good by itself?
>>84102012
Here's what an antagonist is, writers: an antagonist is merely a protagonist shown from a different point of view.
That's how to write villains.
Unfortunately, the industry sucks too much balls to hire writers that realize this anymore.
>>84102012
Is that Clayface between Scarecrow and Black Adam?
>>84103404
Did they teach you that at college, kid?
>>84103439
I taught myself that at a young age--just learned to phrase it when I met someone at college....Ok, yeah, I did.
>>84103343
except for there's also man vs himself, man vs nature, and man vs machine to derive conflict from. Villains are important, but they aren't the only source of story.

So random i-am-against-everything-and-everyone is more mature than a character who uses his trauma as motivation for positive change?

According to those dubs, yeah.

Isn't that what Suicide Squad is?
>>84103119
- He's not. It's just a bullshit argument some writers/fans made to make the Joker seem more interesting because he's actually quite boring.
- There have been stories about Batman's supposed insanity and what it means. But that's just one type of Batman. Morrison's Batman is very rational, in control and trained. He's more like a Navy Seal soldier who takes matters into his own hands trying to bring about positive change.
- It's comics. Deciding to live in Gotham would be insane in the real world. Spoiler alert: it's not real.
- Superman is overpowered because that's the point. He's the one true hero who'll never let us down. Read All-Star Superman.
- Because comics/multiversity.
- Batman doesn't find the Penguin to be attractive enough.

Very limited view of what constitutes conflict in fiction.
Who's the ugly pink guy up front?
>>84103742
That's classic Sinestro
>>84103689
Thanks family.
One more question though....Which origin is considered canon for Lex's baldness?
>>84102447
>>84102467
Damn. I always thought it was Morrow.
>>84103793
Depends.
You've got the Pre-crisis origin, the post-crisis origin, Superman Birthright Origin, Nu52 origin... Nu52 is current continuity, but I feel Birthright is the way better story.
>>84103632
No, Suicide Squad is run by the US Government. I think he means something like the Injustice Society or the Legion of Doom.
>>84102012
Care to elaborate on that thought?
>>84103119
>How is Joker "super-sane" again?
>Morrison invents super sanity to make Joker interesting
>The way he describes it is just a series of dissociative episodes, which is a real-world condition that's well-understood
Thanks, Morrison.

>>84103689
>He's the one true hero who'll never let us down. Read All-Star Superman.
That's just one interpretation of Superman.
Joker pretty much hits the nail on the head for anti-social personality disorder. Not only is he not insane, he has more in common psychologically with Penguin than Riddler, Ivy, or even Harley Quinn.
>>84104297
The "super sanity" description fits more with certain types of recognition and memory disorders where people create personas based on environmental cues.
