>Lex is now seen as a hero by the general public in the DCU
>part of the justice league
>Doesn't have his own ongoing
DC needs to remedy this or go back to having be a villain.
Who would you want writing a Lex ongoing? I would have said Soule but now that he is Marvel exclusive I would say Bunn; he seems to be good at writing total bastard anti-heroes
>>78869588
Lex got his own tie-in issue of Darkseid War and had a lot of focus in Forever Evil and the Amazon Virus arc.
He's one of my favorite villains in all of comics, but let's be honest, a full-blown ongoing would wear the character out fast. He works best when he get some hints at a well-rounded character, but leaves it ambiguous as to whether he actually believes the shit he sells to everyone else, or if he really is a cold-hearted amoral bastard underneath all the talk and suits.

I liked when he was the lead in Action Comics, but you're probably right. The occasional mini would be cool though.
>>78869588
you cannot be serious
i think the current age of comics is officially worse than the silver age
It's Iron Man. The only straight white male left.

Some interesting tidbits from the full article;
> The DCEU is "something really massive, smart and interconnected, Affleck promises. “I’ve been really impressed just as a working stiff to see how they’re doing it.”
>There will be a JL group shot in BvS, apparently - Snyder says “I love Batman and Superman and Wonder Woman, but having Flash and Aquaman and Cyborg and to see them all standing together, it’s a pretty dorky and cool experience for me,”
>Snyder speaks about Affleck's Bruce Wayne/Batman - he says that “You can see the idea of the innocent being victimized by whatever they are, aliens, he doesn’t know — that’s the thing that really boils his blood, as you can imagine it would,” Snyder says. “Suddenly the innocent children of the world are all of us.”
>Affleck also talked about his role at length - “Batman is covered up by a suit and sometimes a car and sometimes a lot of vehicles and weapons, whereas Bruce Wayne is much more naked — it’s just you and a suit of clothes,” Affleck says. “You can’t really play Batman because Batman is different things to different people. We project our own things onto the mythology of what Batman is, and he has to be able to be projected upon. With Bruce Wayne, you have to bring something distinct and new and different.”
>Cavill says that Superman is very much using kid gloves with Batman - “He can sure as hell take Batman out if he wants to, and Batman takes advantage of that,” Cavill says, comparing Superman’s constrained Clark Kent side to a dad playing football with a bunch of children. “He’s not going to go all-out against the kids because he’ll end up smashing people around. It’s the idea of still wanting to have fun but no one gets hurt, so you’re being careful about where your knees and elbows are going. That’s what Clark is for me, but Superman is far more relaxed. Superman is dad just being dad at home.”
>Snyder wants to return WW to the centre of pop culture - “She’s a piece of IP that basically exists in pop culture in a way where every kid’s got a Wonder Woman T-shirt and they don’t really know why. I want to give the why back to that.”
>David Ayer seemingly confirms a Batman/Joker punchup; "When you have Batman’s archnemesis, the hero himself can’t be far behind, and one of Ayer’s favorite days was filming Affleck’s part in Suicide Squad. “We made him fight,” the director says with a laugh. “He’s awesome (as Batman). ... You really sense that but for the grace of God he himself would be doing some really foul stuff out in the world.”
>Both Affleck and Cavill are excited to be part of an interconnected universe - Affleck says he’s “bound by nondisclosure clauses a mile long” but is willing to spill the news that Suicide Squad is bound to blow people away. “It felt like I have such a cool cousin. This thing that is so awesome is somehow related to me, and that was really exciting because it started to feel like a constellation of things, and I’ve never had that feeling.” Cavill says that “There’s a whole world of fantasy in comic books, and if you just focus on one small portion of it, you’re never going to get the full magic of it,” Cavill says. “Now that we’re introducing all these other characters and really building the universe to a far larger place than just a simple alien’s life on Earth, it really makes it extraordinarily interesting.”
>Ayer also calls out Marvel's post-credits promotion style - “For me, it’s a little more than just dropping a cut scene in the end credits to link projects,” he says. “You really have to be thinking three movies downrange and how today’s movie will impact more later-cycle projects.”
Thoughts?

>You can’t really play Batman because Batman is different things to different people.
I hate how people talk about Batman like he's some sort of abstract. Christ.
Do we still hate her?
A little bit.
>>78866296
I'm sure some still do. Mabel haters were always a small minority, and they are on their way as we type.

When was the last time the difference between the Big Two was so large? I mean, quality wise.
The announcement of Civil War II seems to have cemented Marvel's downward spiral to absolute mediocrity. DC, otherwise, seems to finally stabilized itself after New 52's messy launch. They now have a considerable number of quality books, with a consistent diversity of styles. Marvel now is about all Bendis, gimmicks and relaunches.
>>78865467
>considerable number of quality books
How many? Marvel has several quality books themselves.

Are you saying they should have cast someone with a less piglike demeanor?
You're right, what we had before was so much better.

Realistically he won't, he's making more money on TV adaptations of stuff outside Marvel. He's too lazy to do both, but too self-aggrandizing to stop putting his name on everything and focus on editing.
Sana Amanat is a more realistic successor to Alonso, but quite a few years from now. She's more of a career editor that doesn't have Alonso's history, but there are few viable alternatives within Marvel already.
