Rebirth Speculation thread?
John Stewart dies.
Some titles start releasing twice a month instead of once.
>>80714051
Sales flop like ANAD did
No one will actually be reborn. The rebirth title is figurative.
>>80714159
No!. That's a lie... It can't be true
>>80714051
convergence will allow characters from the past to come back into the new 52 world.
Just like Parallax and pre52 supes have come back to our world from convergence so will wally west.
90s superboy will be back , possibly in super sons?
They'll co-exist alongside the new 52 versions and possibly replace them if need be.
It seemed like JSA were being brought forward in time from a forgotten era though the way they mentioned them a few weeks back.
Honestly I think I'm done speculating until we at least get creative teams.
>>80714051
>still 2 weeks till announcements
Whyyyyyyyy
>>80714246
>Just like Parallax and pre52 supes have come back to our world from convergence so will wally west.
I have bad news for you, the real parallax didnt came back, it was just the fearbug.
>>80714344
Lobdell is on all books you want to read.
>>80714060
Desh literally assassinates Didio and Lee.
>>80714548
He's already on suicide watch with "Hal Jordan and GLC". Rumors of other book having Simon and Jessica aren't helping him, either.
double shipping will force bagley tier artists on every book after 3 months
>>80714657
>Simon and Jessica headline second GL book
>D-DC is so racist to not have John headline his own b-book...
>>80714738
Is Bagley considered bad or is it just /co/ meme?
>>80714465
no reason to live I guess
>>80714817
It'll be hilarious to see Stewartfags backpedal.
And if Hal's book has Guy and my favorite alien Lanterns, win/win.
>>80714850
Those people probably wouldn't backpedal, they'd just say DC hates black men specifically.
>>80714868
They've literally at that point, yeah. I still can't get over that one newb going 'well, it seems that if Simon and Jessica are headlining the other book I don't see how this can be racist, but considering I'm white maybe I shouldn't comment".
>>80714868
>>80714908
I stand corrected.
Or they could cover up and say that DC/Geoff Johns are sabotaging John Stewart and push Hal, who is, like, most boring Lantern of them all.
>>80714850
>Guy and Hal banter written by Taylor
you will never get this
>>80714955
Good, Taylor is fucking horrible and shouldn't be writing GLs.
Or anything else for that matter.
>>80714465
what can men do against such reckless hate?
>>80714411
Aren't solicits next week?
>>80714955
It hurts ;_;
>>80714975
>Still mad about Injustice
Grow up
>>80715045
>yfw they delay solicits
It wouldn't even be all the creative teams, just the first month's. Which what, eight different books at most?
>>80715081
>implying we won't be hype as all fuck even if it's less than 10 books
>>80715076
His Injustice was better than anything he's written so far.
His GL mini is one of the worst things being published by DC right now, with BM/SM being mediocre as fuck.
But go continue to fap to his Harley, anon.
>>80715103
>Hating Lobo banter
>Hating Supes & Bats friendship
Grow up. But continue to be mad because he wrote an Elseworld
>>80715081
>yfw they delay solicits
Till the 28th? No fucking way
June is
>AQUAMAN REBIRTH #1, AQUAMAN #1-2
>BATMAN REBIRTH #1, BATMAN #1-2
>THE FLASH REBIRTH #1, THE FLASH #1-2
>GREEN ARROW REBIRTH #1, GREEN ARROW #1-2
>GREEN LANTERNS REBIRTH #1, GREEN LANTERNS #1-2
>SUPERMAN REBIRTH #1, SUPERMAN #1-2
>TITANS REBIRTH #1
>WONDER WOMAN REBIRTH #1, WONDER WOMAN #1-2
>ACTION COMICS #957-958
>DETECTIVE COMICS #934-935
Plenty to talk about
>>80715263
>half a trade out in one month
That seems horrible.
Have they said if #1 and #2 are coming out the same month?
Is Superboy Prime gonna fuck shit up?
>>80715346
No wait, that's me fucking up of course
Rebirth counts as an issue
>>80714458
ok , so past characters with the inclusions of any retcons made added.
Although they haven't explicitly said there's the fear bug inside him , that's just something you're presuming because of the big teeth and fancy font used for parallax right ?
>>80715263
>Aquaman
Abnett
>Batman
King
>Green Arrow
Percy
>Superman
Tomasi
>Titans
Probably Abnett or Lobdell
>Wonder Woman
Bennett
>Action
Jurgens
>Detective
Probably Snyder or Tynion
Go hype now, I dare you.
>>80715519
>>Titans
>Probably Abnett or Lobdell
I wouldn't be surprised if one of them is writing Titans and other Teen Titans.
Tim Drake is fucked, no matter what.
>>80715569
Haven't you heard the rumor that Damian is taking Tim's spot on TT
And no way Titans isn't going to be the NTT cast with Hawk and Dove replacing Cyborg and Wally
How many speculation threads do you want?At least it's a fucking thread about comics.
>>80715584
Yeah, I heard. Damian on TT, Dick on T. Only place for Tim is Lobdell's Red Hood and Outlaws, it seems.
>>80715133
You're the one mad that anon doesn't like Tom Taylor. Honestly, Tom Taylor is pretty mediocre at best so far.
>>80715624
>Jason AND Tim for Lobdell containment
lol
>>80715624
Kek. They should just murder him.
>>80715624
Batman Beyond is probably still Tim.
Since Didio or Lee confirmed that lesser known characters are showing up in the books they already have, I wouldn't be surprised if Booster Gold showed up and the book is still written by Jurgens.
>>80715660
With serious books? Yeah
With comedy books?. Nah, he best approach is with character with the caliber of Plastic-Man and Harley, comedic characters with humanity
>>80715717
We're getting a Blue Beetle run with Ted and you don't think that's where Michael'll show up?
>>80715676
They should murder Lobdell but that's just me.
>>80715717
If we look at Rebirth titles, none of them looks fitting for Booster.
Except Blue Beetle, of course. I get why people would like it's Jaime but he's not muh. I want muh alive Ted.
>>80715795
Yeah. It makes a lot more sense
>>80715816
We'll probably get both of em going by the Rebirth video
>>80715795
>>80715816
>yfw he shows up in Batman Beyond AND Blue Beetle
Surely one of them would be good.R-right?
I wish we had more fringe titles instead of making something like cyborg twice monthly which won't last at all
Mom's Knife is OP.
Wait, wrong Rebirth.
>>80714825
He's kind of bad in a way that seems kind of stylized so if you put him on the right title he's just kind of mediocre. Not Booth-tier or anything.
>>80715868
Or Ted will wear alien armor bug, for kicks.
>>80715888
Of course, all will be good.
>>80715373
I hope so
>>80715660
Don't E2 fans hate Taylor?
>>80716016
Yes
>>80716016
Yeah. But anon mentions disliking Taylor and the other anon immediately assumes it's because f injustice.
>>80714096
Shut your whore mouth.
I wonder who will be on justice league
I could see tomasi happen but I hope it won't
maybe snyder since he has a lot of artist friends
>>80716680
It has to be someone high profile. Justice League was DC's second best selling title throughout new 52.
More movie and TV pandering
>>80716731
What if King has JL?
>>80716998
I was thinking the same thing but didn't say it because I pretty much hope that with all the titles.
>>80716680
Probably Bryan Hitch, he's been teasing DC rebirth a lot on his twitter and having a major role in it.
>>80717131
I could see them giving someone like Orlando a shot I guess. I feel like Johns and Snyder are the only really big names at DC as far as writers go.
>>80715519
>>Action
>Jurgens
NO PLEASE.
>>80717163
Is he confirmed off JLA?
>>80717245
It's what BC is saying. Also saying Margueritte Bennet is writing Wonder Woman.
>>80716731
Snyder and Johns are the only high profile writers they have right now. Morrison doesn't do ongoings anymore, and King isn't high profile yet.
>>80717163
His JLA was mediocre as fuck and WAY too decompressed. Putting him on JL would be a mistake. Also he's a pretty slow artist so it would probably be plagued with delays, even with two other artists.
>>80717163
>Shaner won't draw
>>80717346
Why did Didio have to put all the good writers and artists on his pet project? ;_;
>>80716998
>What if King has JL?
Pray he doesn't. Unless you are Johns or Snyder, he is going to get hosed by Justice League editorial. It's why people want him to start on Batman first to build his rep so that he can stand up to the editors when he does GL or JL.
>>80717163
he'll probably continue on jla
>>80717409
Didio said he can write whatever he wants so I think he's skipping the "you have to be a high profile writer" part
>>80717346
>Katma
Isn't she still dead? Just use Power Ring or Sora
>Platinum
literally why
>>80717245
Eddie Berganza needs to go.
At least it's better than Max Landis.
>>80717508
>mfw TT and Titans are still under Berganza
Don't even have a sufficient reaction to that, because it would be like DC literally does not want them to be readable.
>>80717508
they really need a new editorial office to remove all the stuff that shouldn't be in the superman office
>>80717542
Fuck Berganza. Someone get rid of him.
>>80717575
There wasn't even enough Superman books to be a Superman office.
It was just Justice League Part 1 and Part 2 with miscellaneous.
>>80717575
>>80717606
If Berganza survived the move to the west, he's never leaving unless it's on his own terms.
>>80717617
Yeah people seem to ignore this but I get why Superman books would have perceived priority.
>>80717575
Batman is the only family of books that has his own office.
That may change with Rebirth since there's just as many Superbooks as Batbooks, or maybe more.
It's weird.
I'm like 50/50 with Gene Yang and Ben Percy.
I've said this before, but my personal theory is that DCYou was intended to be a stopgap between the Convergence and Rebirth. With that in mind -- along with the larger editorial decision to decompress the fuck out of 90% of the DCU lineup -- it makes sense that their books (Superman and Green Arrow) were crappy even though the writers have turned out decent stuff before.
I have no idea what'll happen to Yang, but part of me suspects he'll be kept as one of the Superman writers. And at this point, it seems clear that Percy will be (one of) the writer(s) on Green Arrow. Maybe the greater freedom + double-shipping will improve the books.
And honestly, if my theory about DCYou is right, then it'll be exceedingly difficult to predict the quality of what's coming next based on what's happened in the past 10 months, even if you assume a lot of teams stay the same.
IMO, if we can get the feeling of 52 across the seventeen bimonthlies, then DC will be more than fine.
>>80714458
Thanks to retcons that IS the real Parallax now
>>80719052
Yeah Percy on a bi-weekly schedule I hope will fix his pacing issues and the problem he seems to be having between choosing whether a story should be grounded or fantastical since he can pump more of either out
>>80715045
I think DC is delaying solicits, since their Wondercon announcement is later and they'll have a separate previews magazine
I can tell you that not EVERYTHING is new in June though, JLA has an annual
>>80719052
Is Yang still at DC? He sounded like he was only contracted for the arc.
His fight club arc was good. I think pairing him with JRJR to start with and having him write an arc that didn't need to be longer than like one issue at the start of the run kind of fucked him over.
>>80715733
He should be writing the Lois Lane book with the Daily Planet being the focus of it, with a light hearted tone. He's good at writing Superman.
>>80714096
Both DCYou and ANAD were full of C-listers which nobody buys. DC made a smart move about filling it with Bat and Super books, along with other big names.
>>80719145
It's a shame that he was bogged down by the stupid crossover and editorial influence. Like Valentine, I expected something big from him.
>>80719301
A lot of ANAD books are below where they were before the relaunch or even the lowest in quite some time. ASM is at like 70k when it hasn't been like that in a few years.
>>80719372
ASM is also currently not controversial at all, which is what marvel thrives off of
>>80719445
Eh, Peter having a different direction seems to be pretty controversial, but it seems people are just dropping it instead of waiting it out.
>>80719751
it's a different direction that benefits his life instead of ruins it, so it doesn't have the same effect
So anyone know what Gleason is drawing for Rebirth? Chances he'll be paired with Tomasi again?
>>80719909
Rumor was he's on Teen Titans, but we haven't heard anything official.
If Damian goes there then I can see him drawing it at least.
>>80719909
no. no.
>Rebirth speculation
Wally West
So is post-Rebirth E2 secretly JSA or will the JSA be in JL?
>>80719052
yang is a good writer but he got brought in to basically write tie ins to a greg pak story
such a shame
>>80719909
maybe super sons
>>80717456
>>Platinum
>literally why
Someone has to play Cyborg's role.
>>80720975
Use Dr Light or Steel's niece if you need a tech person
>>80720876
I think the deity fight club was solid gold but everything else was really disappointing
shame he had to spend so much time just explaining how Truth happened
>>80715519
Why do people think King is going to be on Batman? I'm calling it now /co/ will be wrong again.
>>80721377
I think people are just assuming that DC offered him something big to get him to go exclusive, and iirc a BC rumor said he might be on Batman?
personally I hope he is on Hal & the GLC
>>80721377
>>80721446
he's made it sound like he'll still be writing Dick and Tiger where he goes. If not Batman then Tec or Nightwing I guess?
>>80721377
Because BleedingCool reported it.
>>80721553
SeeKing moving over to Nightwing makes sense
They can be on more than one book though
>>80721562
People were thinking he was on Batman before BC reported it
It started like right after he and Seeley were off Grayson.
>>80721726
That was less speculation and mostly paranoia because "All of Dick's good writers move on to Bruce"
>justice league
Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo working together again
>The Super-Man
Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok Lex Luthor book, picking where JL leaves off. they're already talking about they're next project one of them said on twitter
>Blue Beetle
either Johns or Giffen/Dematteis for the writer. artist dunno but both seem to like the characters
>New Suicide Squad
Steve Orlando
>Nightwing
Tim Seeley
>>80721719
Seeley said he doesn't want to do a joint writing project again and wants to go on his own.
all this talk of seeley makes me happy they poached him. I was an early supporter of revival and desu I feel like working at marvel would kill the quality of his work a la soule or lemire (I miss the soule-train at DC)
>>80722029
>Giffen/Dematteis
They're off on Scooby-Doo Apocalypse
>>80722029
Jim Lee confirmed Suicide Squad as Rob Williams
>>80722177
you don't think they could do more than one book?
Who knows maybe they'll have some surprise creators in the wing. That DC wondercon poster that was posted a few days ago had Kurt Busiek's name on it. Imagine Busiek back at DC
>>80722117
>lemire
Sold out for Wolverine.
>>80722260
That was for Astro City.
>>80722029
Scott Snyder would be terrible on a non street level book and one which usually depend son big events.
Rob Williams will be on suicide squad.
>>80722264
why do people even still like wolverine?
it's a shame because his green arrow run, despite having its flaws, was building a neat mythology for GA in the vein of Johns (for better or worse, matter of opinion) in that he was getting two sets of organized rogues galleries: Outsiders (akin to the rainbow lanterns) and the longbow hunters (akin to the Rogues). Ben Percy hasn't done shit with it except for Emiko
>>80719938
Teen Titans really does need a more cartoony look. Gleason is a good compromise between that and something more realistic.
>>80722572
>why do people even still like wolverine?
Hell if I know. But I get that he thought OML will be safe paycheck.
>>80722607
What they need is to not be dark and edgy and to actually be friends
>>80722675
I do feel like his work other than GA was starting to suffer (remember JLU/Canada? Equinox was a neat idea but damn the execution was so half-hearted). maybe its good he's at marvel now
>>80722741
Bringing Legion to JLU was a mistake.
>>80722572
I can never forgive Sorrentino for running off to do MUH CHILDHOOD as opposed to helping create one of the better DC Mythologies in a long time
>>80722772
It was a decent LoSH sort of love letter arc (though it was a dumb reason to bring them to the present). Wrong book to do it in though.
>>80722805
I know. I actually really loved sorrentino's redesign of count vertigo (homage to the original but also making a new look)
>>80722772
>>80722838
definitely. a cast of more than ten heroes in a five issue arc is just a mistake in general. Also I feel Lemire is always short on characterization it seems. maybe because the cast was so big what we got was super barebones
anyone thinking they'll finally giveHickmanLOSH in rebirth?
>>80722264
I hope marvel burns him out soon by having him write 4 books simultaneously so he can go back to do more creator owned stuff
>>80722955
>anyone thinking they'll finally giveHickmanLOSH in rebirth?
They do need a big name if they launch it, but I think if they were getting a Rebirth book in this first wave it would be in the title and we'd know already.
>>80722955
>anyone thinking they'll finally give Hickman LOSH in rebirth?
Was he with writers at last Marvel retreat?
>>80722961
Well he's already writing like 3 marvel books and I think he has another one coming out
even worse than the disappearance of lemire is the disappearance of kindt. I mean dudes writing a bunch of great stuff right now but I first learned of him through those JLA - martian manhunter backups
>>80722955
Nah, not in this wave. LoSH'll probably be in Supergirl supporting cast
>>80722961
>All new Hawkeye
>EXM
>Old Man Logan
>Moon Knight
Already happening.
>>80723063
yeah, I think the next project he wanted to do at marvel was a celestials books
>>80714096
DC doesn't really care about floppy sales anymore. This double shipping is to increase trade production because that's where all the money is
>>80722260
It was a wondercon poster using DC art. Not a DC poster for wondercon.
>>80722260
busiek won't do big two ongoings anymore
I still dream of him being on GL though
>>80722029
Capullo's on a Mark Millar book, IIRC.
>>80723184
I assure you they do care about floppies.
>>80723429
that's right
he did say that he and snyder have more in the works as a duo
>>80723429
He's coming back and will work on an event with Snyder.
>>80723255
No it was DC's promotional poster, not wondercon's.
>>80717453
Yea I'm still betting if he gets JL he'll get ass fucked like Robinson did.
>>80719909
Betting lines on Supersons or TT whatever Damien is doing
>>80723074
Kindt burnt himself out, I don't think he'll be coming back anytime soon.
Lemire was good at specific kinds of books but just kept blowing all of that goodwill by writing shitty team books instead of focusing on his strengths.
>>80714051
It's just DC making an event out of the return to the status quo.
>>80723429
>>80723487
>>80723506
Aaaand, just found this:
https://twitter.com/GregCapullo/status/707912814309015552
So it seems like he'll be gone for a while, but will eventually be back with Snyder on a DC book?
That makes me think that, if he's on a title that's already been announced, it will likely be one that's released later.
Based on the fall releases per
http://www.dccomics.com/blog/2016/02/18/dc-entertainment-reveals-first-details-of-%E2%80%9Crebirth%E2%80%9D-to-retailers-at-comics-pro-2016
that leaves:
JLA
Suicide Squad
Deathstroke (unlikely
Trinity
Trinity is my best guess, right now, for Capullo's book. It's a monthly, so he wouldn't have to change his art style or have someone ape him even remotely. It's based on the big 3 DC characters, and DC will especially want Superman and Wonder Woman to be in the same breath as Batman. What better way to do that than have the team who made the uber-popular New52 Batman work on a book featuring all three of them?
The only book that we know the creative team of is Suicide Squad and no preview art for anything. I get the feeling that DC is really scrambling to find creators.
Is there source for this? I don't recall any rumor of him writing TT, only speculation based on Damian's role.
Before knowing about Supersons, I'd tought that might be the case, but now I'd bet he's writing about Damian and Jon.
My only fear is that the book will be under Superman's editoral, and apparently they are terrible?
>>80724587
But they already have the guests for WonderCon set-up and thats where all the creative teams are gonna be
>>80724542
Snyder said the book he's doing with Capullo at DC isn't part of Rebirth. I think they're gonna just do DC's next big event. Because Capullo said in a IGN interview that when he comes back to DC, he's going to work on a event with Scott.
>>80724633
Wouldn't be surprised if those teams change before the actual books come out.
>>80724587
This post doesn't make sense. They've saving the news to announce at a specific event and basically all the same creators that were already on books have said that they're returning. The only mystery seems to be on our end not internally.
>>80724765
I don't think so. DC has been planning for this shit since Halloween. They'd have to fuck up majorly to be in position of scrambling the creators.
>>80724957
Yeah they've certainly known since the DCYou books were on #4 or #5 just how much it flopped and how they needed to start changing gears again.
>>80724957
It's DC, they don't tend to plan things out too well ahead.
>>80722260
What poster?
>>80725098
This time though they're putting much more effort than they did with Flashpoint.
>>80725324
http://cdn.bleedingcool.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/IMG_0001-600x925.jpg
>>80725458
Meh
>>80725098
Solicits get changed sometimes but it's not as if they wouldn't have teams lined up to launch for June. It's like 2 weeks away. You're being ridiculous here.
>>80725458
I don't think this means much other than people who have worked for DC recently and/or have popular Vertigo stuff. Like we know Kuder doesn't have anything with DC coming up.
>>80725458
>event set in Seattle
>don't use your Seattle-based hero for the poster
Its not like Ollie's unknown either
>>80724627
Only Batman gets good editorial.
>>80725726
Some people on there haven't worked for DC at all or very little, like Britney Williams and Amy Chu.
But yes I imagine some of those people are gonna be talking works they're doing now in addition to Rebirth stuff or Vertigo stuff.
>>80714051
It'll be shit
>>80716731
Could they get Mike Carey back for it? I remember reading some of his Lucifer interviews and him saying huge crazy JLA stories were his dream comics to write
>>80725329
Flashpoint wasn't even intended to be a reboot event, though, that's the thing. It was a simple summer Elseworlds event that had a reboot element tacked on because sales were the lowest DC'd ever been since the mid-90s.
>>80725966
He's probably there to talk about Lucifer but imagine. And Justice League vacancy did open with Johns leaving.
I wonder if they will be able to lure any big names from Marvel or people that have just switched to Image.
>>80727025
Doubt it. Reason DCYou failed was half the creators were shit, half were literally who.
If Rebirth is anything other than a complete reboot from square one I'm tapping out.
>>80727784
>If Rebirth is anything other than a complete reboot from square one
Why would they do that
Why would you want that
>>80727784
You might as well leave now because not only is there 0% chance of that happening, you're the only one who wants it.
>>80730072
Because the present continuity is an impossible to read pile of shit with over 75 years of bullshit thats been retconed, unretconed and transported through alternate dimensions that makes it almost impossible to appeal to new readers who just want to start from Episode 1 of Season 1 like any rational human being.
>>80714817
Two Brownies don't make a Black
>>80727784
If anything it's gonna be the opposite- making it so stuff from before 2011 actually happened in this universe
>>80717636
Can his own terms be, he fucked up those comics real good. Please go. You're FIRED.
>>80727143
That's not true, they were good creators, they were just writing Z-listers.
>>80716016
Kind of. The readership was split there. It's only the stuff that came afterwards that was basically universally reviled.
>>80716016
>>80732498
Yeah half E2 readers didn't like the new Superman and Batman and disliked his run, the other half loved them and Taylor's run
>>80726160
>erased the character that was to Barry Allen as Barry Allen was to Jay Garrick
>cancelled the atom, doom patrol and metal men making it years before we'd see them again
>erased the JSA
New 52 was really worst reboot, wasn't it.
>>80732989
>>cancelled the atom, doom patrol and metal men making it years before we'd see them again
that would have happened with or without a reboot
He's not doing Justice League. I wonder who they'll get.

>>80733085
huh, he also says he's not on a double shipping title
>>80733150
So no detective but he's definitely working on a Batman story. Maybe OGN or mini. I hope he at least writes something other than Batman because since he's become popular he just doesn't want to put in the effort. Maybe he'll do the Trinity book.
>>80733150
Well then there's only 15 of those, and some are clearly not for him, like BoP and RHATO.
>BATGIRL
>BATGIRL & THE BIRDS OF PREY
>BATMAN BEYOND
>BLUE BEETLE
>EARTH 2
>GOTHAM ACADEMY: NEXT SEMESTER
>THE HELLBLAZER
>RED HOOD & THE OUTLAWS
>SUPERGIRL
>SUPERWOMAN
>THE SUPER-MAN
>SUPER SONS
>TEEN TITANS
>TITANS
>TRINITY
Earth 2?
>>80733330
Maybe Trinity, if he's still going to be writing Batman in something?
or maybe there's an unannounced book he's working on
>>80733330
Trinity IF he'll write something other than Batman.
>>80733330
>>80733351
I'm kinda hoping for Trinity, he's said he wants to write Wonder Woman
>>80733298
Tec isn't double shipping.
>>80733330
Trinity seems the most likely.
High profile enough in that it's DC's three most iconic heroes in one book right when the movie comes out.
>>80724395
I was all "Good for you being honest" when Lemire admitted he'd had trouble with team writing after JLD and before JLU.
I was all "FUCK YOU WITH A RAKE" when he moved to Marvel and said he'd had trouble with teams during JLU but sure had it now that he was on EXM.
>>80733429
It is.
>>80733511
I don't think it is, I'm pretty sure the release with the book titles had a typo on it, and the diamond list says it's monthly
>>80733330
It's either Trinity or Beyond. He does seem to want to do Beyond, I wouldn't mind that.
>>80733490
Lemire was such a hypocrite, he just wanted a bigger paycheck. His EXM is the worst X book coming out, it is fun seeing X-fags and Lemirefags defend that trash.
Stan Lee on the Battlin' Bug
>>80733574
It would be dumb not to double ship it, they really need to get that 1000 mark as quickly as possible. But I don't know, we'll see.
>>80733490
I'm still a little appalled by how disappointing JLU managed to be
Seeing him say the same shit about being bad on team books both before and after JLU makes me wonder how he even ended up on an X-book
>>80733574
>>80733574
If they're double shipping action to get to that sweet , sweet 1000 as fast as possible you better believe your ass that they will be doing the same for Tec
>>80733674
No, what would be dumb is double shipping both Batman titles.
>>80733574
Huh, yeah the first release had Action and Detective as shipping twice monthly so maybe it was a typo.
>>80733694
they're double shipping both GL titles too, that doesn't have quite the same selling power as a Batman book
>>80733677
From what has been pieced together, it's pretty clear that Remender was going to be taking the X-Line and doing something reasonably radical with them. Then X-Editorial, which had been in a state of complete disarray for some time with Marts bailing (BotA was apparently a shitfest competition with Bendis and Aaron), turned over and everything got junked. Lemire got nabbed as a replacement, and they went back to far less ambitious retreads of earlier stories. Ramos talked about it in that Spanish-language podcast someone found.
>>80733694
>double shipping two titles that are guarenteed money
>dumb
If it works it's not stupid.
Now what IS dumb is double shipping Cyborg, Deathstroke, Green Arrow, and probably Nightwing.
>>80733694
It's Batman. If it doesn't work they can just not do that anymore. And you need to realize they aren't doing B&R, BM/SM or other Bat stuff and with double shipping they won't be able to do weekly.
>>80733574
>Snyder on 'Tec
Just fucking leave Batman already you fuck and take Tynion with you.I just want to see how Snyder writes Wonder Woman
>>80733825
If he does less ambitious stuff and less Joker wankry, he's fine. See Black Mirror, Gates of Gotham and Court of The Owls.
>>80733891
No I'm tired of him writing Batman in general.
>>80733825
I am hoping for a serious talent on Wondy to apologize for this fucking Finch run, and Snyder's said he has a Wondy pitch that he wouldn't elaborate upon because he really did want to do it.
>>80733574
I'm 99% sure Diamond copied the list wrong.
On DC's website, they separated out the list between "New #1s (shipping twice monthly)", "New #1s (shipping monthly)", and "New Issues (shipping twice monthly)".
Especially given the position of Action Comics and Detective Comics on the list, I'm sure they misinterpreted what the final one meant.
Not to mention the fact that DC literally says they're being double-shipped twice in the press release:
1) Once at the "New Issues (shipping twice monthly)"
2) And before that:
>In addition, DC’s two flagship legacy titles will resume their original issue numbering, also shipping TWICE MONTHLY: DETECTIVE COMICS will pick up with issue #934, while ACTION COMICS will continue with issue #957.
>>80734044
oh, you might be right
guess we'll find out in a couple weeks if nothing else
Hickman will never writer a Martian Manhunter book with art by Jerome Opena.
>>80734111
Good
>>80734111
I'm upset that Hickman is the only writer with enough star power and the desire to write LOSH.
>>80733959
Me too anon but that's what he cares about. When Endgame was coming out he was on wordballon podcast. He said there that he'll try to do as much big gigs (basically Trinity) as possible and didn't intend to do smaller characters. And it's understandable that you'd rather do a creator owned instead of smaller titles when you're as big as Snyder and can't churn out titles like crazy (that I actually like about him, he isn't churning out creator owned shit and trying to achieve maximum quality). But yeah it's selfish as fuck.
>>80734260
>He said there that he'll try to do as much big gigs (basically Trinity) as possible and didn't intend to do smaller characters.
That's a shame, I liked his Swamp Thing a lot
I understand why though
>>80732329
They weren't really well known creators.
>>80734033
At this point I'm just assuming they'll have Bennett on it since she can churn out 4-5 scripts a month no problem, talks to editorial already, is a female writer, and is a student of Snyder.
At best she has a co writer who isn't mediocre as fuck so we can at least have one good issue a month. And if she's the only writer, the best I can hope for is editorial not fucking her in the ass and her utilizing her knowledge of Wondy's mythology at least half way competently. She knows who Paula von Gunther is so maybe she's actually read her comics before, unlike the Finches.
>>80734328
DC needs to create more A listers if they want their obscure characters to get some attention from the audience. Only way to do that currently is either give them Batman, a gimmick title (soule and Superman/Wonder Woman) or an event.
Absolute most vital things I ask for...
> Bennett and any other sjw/tumblr style feminist NOT be on Wonder Woman.
> Wonder Woman's ongoing continues to be serious toned in art and writing no quirky humor, not cartoony silly art style, NO FUCKING CHIBI.
> Martian Manhunter be put full time on the JL roaster, Fabok or Reis is on the book to draw him, and we get some arcs with him being focused on.
> We get a New Gods series or Mister Miracle & Barda remain on the JL roster after Darkseid War.
> SuperWoman is a crime syndicate ongoing with her as its focus and any of (Reis/Fabok/Ryp/March/Jorge Jimenez/Mahnke) on art.
> They do NOT break up Aquaman & Mera.
> Good artist is put on Aquaman (not as good as Reis as that is fantasy land but better then any of the other artist that have been on him in the new 52)
> Lee Bermejo sense he is not continuing on Suiciders as far as I can tell gets put on something.
>>80734390
That's true but saying they were shit is just being petty.
>>80734529
> Wonder Woman stays in the Fabok outfit.
> Guillem March gets interior work.
>>80734477
I'm pretty sure they're trying to do that with King, and maybe Seeley.
Them talking with Johns and Snyder and planning something means DC is trying to push them at least.
>>80734529
>not as good as Reis as that is fantasy land but better then any of the other artist that have been on him in the new 52
Pelletier was good though.
>Lee Bermejo sense he is not continuing on Suiciders as far as I can tell gets put on something.
He's doing covers for Han Solo series over at Marvel, he might be going exclusive mate.
>>80733330
What if he writes Batgirl?And it's his waifu Cassandra Cain?
>>80734664
>Bermejo not doing art on The Super Man
>Azz not writing it
>it not being about Lex Luthor
It's like DC hates my money
>>80734557
I was calling them literally who. Orlando, Williams and Russell are one of my favorite writer from that batch. Shit were just the old fags like Venditti, Lobdell, fucking Jurgens (you get the idea).
>>80734714
You mean Harper anon.
>>80734664
>Pelletier was good though.
Oh absolutely but we can still do better without perfection like Reis.
>>80734754
>Venditti, Lobdell, fucking Jurgens
>they are all confirmed to be on Rebirth books
>>80734477
They should definitely give Flash a good writer/artist team that will do him justice. People WANT to love Flash right now with his show giving him more exposure and popularity than ever before. Just do right by him and market him more and he'll be up there.
>>80734796Harper is her plucky teen fan-favorite sidekick.
>>80734833
I really hope Jurgens is just contained on Batman Beyond. Just have him write AND draw it if he needs money so much instead of letting him write two books.
And Lobdell is definitely on RHATO still. I'm assuming it being a title is because he's fucking Harras.
>>80734904
I am pretty sure Venditti is off Flash but if he's still on a GL book I swear to god
>>80734796
Honestly at this point Tynion seems to like Harper more than Snyder.
Snyder has used Duke more lately.
>>80734869
But who is good enough to write Flash? At this point I'd be okay with Pak since his TAH is at least lighthearted and competently written. Though he needs Kuder so the book will be actually good and Kuder isn't on a DC project after he leaves Action, sooo
>>80734833
Kek'd.
>>80734950
He made it sound like he was still on it
I just want him to have good art and for him to not make Hal's life miserable
Then it will be okay
>>80735134
I don't know what's so funny, they ARE all on Rebirth books
>>80734950
He's on big project according to Jensen anon.
>>80735168
>I just want him to have good art
Well both GL books are double shipping, so even if Tan sticks around he can only plague half the issues
That's... better than before, I guess
>and for him to not make Hal's life miserable
I'm not sure he knows how to do anything else
>>80735231
Don't know why people hate Billy Tan's art.
Sure its not as good as his Thor work or especially his few issues being gloriously colored by Dean White in Uncanny X-force but still.
>>80735313
Isn't that Phillip Tan?
>>80735313
>Don't know why people hate Billy Tan's art.
Because his GL looks horrible most of the time and that's all I really have seen of his to judge from
Are you sure that picture you posted is Billy Tan and not Philip Tan? That line work doesn't look nearly sloppy enough
GL #50 was fucking atrocious, I don't know how he turned out his worst work on the book by far after being on it for three years and having three months to work on it but somehow he managed
If you could pick and Marvel creators to come over to Dc for rebirth, who would you want them to be and what would you put them on?
> Pasqual Ferry has not been on much lately, would not mind him going back to DC he was on Superman a bit and a Mister Miracle series.
>>80735679
His art looks so fucking digital. Ew.
>>80735438
>Isn't that Phillip Tan?
>>80735494
>Are you sure that picture you posted is Billy Tan and not Philip Tan? That line work doesn't look nearly sloppy enough
Positive its Billy, I own all his Thor Issues.
Sorry his current work is not enjoyable for you.
>>80735799
Fair enough, I did not like it right away myself ether but It grew on me during Fraction's Thor run, I liked the otherworldly surreal nature the digital shading adds to it.
>>80735679
>>80735699
Make it a new series about young Shilo Norman's adventures with the New Gods and you've got yourself a deal.
>>80735863
>Sorry his current work is not enjoyable for you.
I don't know if he's just stuck with terrible inkers/colorists on GL or what but nothing he's done in GL looks as good as those two pages you posted
>>80714051
Is that a female lantern?
