Good evening owls of /co/,
wow that looks friendly
>>81206707
we'll be very slow first hour because I know many of y'all are watching the crossover on your TV
Starro a cute
>>81206707
Oh neat. I've wanted to look into more stuff with Starro. I'm pretty casual on DC so is there anything I should know beforehand?
>people were mad about this

comic nerds are dumb
hi thread!
>>81206750
i'm behind on Supergirl so I'm putting it off :(
>>81206802
past two threads might help >>81136214 and >>81171665 but the one OP is starting with today kind of recaps history for this version so you'll probably be ok?
>>81206707
Hello Storyteller.
>wow that looks friendly
It looks like the kind of porn I keep trying and failing to find. You have any idea how rare tentacle genitalia pics are? It's like Nazi gold I tell ya.
>>81206750
so what's good in solicits?
Dr. Fate #13 mentions Kent, so I hope Inza's there too, but there's one JSAer snuck back into mainline
S&S mentions ITTY, which is pure happiness
>>81206951
More Ostrander Squad collections
That Brave and the Bold omnibus would be fun af to read but omnibus prices.
New Flash guy name checking Return of Barry Allen had me rolling
>>81206750
Joke's on you.
I'm watching Dancing with The Stars.
>>81206909
I wasn't going to make a "is this /d/?" crack in the OP, but that is ridiculously /d/, goddamn
Chapter title is an H. P Lovecraft riff, oft riffed upon
>>81207027
hnnnng, more Squad is a good, good day
>>81206951
Solicits were what I expected, going by the wondercon announcements and some of the writers' interviews.
>>81207073
I loved it when Batman riffed that title.
>>81207073
What are your thoughts on the movie?
>>81206951
Itty! Finally best sidekick returns
solicits were fine. I am trying to be less disappointed by the GL books
>>81206951
Solicits didn't do much to clear up the Superman stuff I guess the "new Clark Kent" is new 52's one but I don't know
I don't think they'll kill him off since the death is a blue and black character unless that was wholly a Nightwing joke
>>81206951
The Vertigo solicits make the Vertigo rumor seem more legit.
>>81204450
>>81204819
tl;dr There are just two Vertigo books right now that aren't minis, cancelled, by a popular writer (or one DC is pushing), or continuation of a previous book.
>>81207073
H.P. Lovecraft stories have a weird mix of really dull titles and really intense ones. Which I guess fits a lot.
>>81207088
Robin and Red Hood/Arsenal had FINAL ISSUE, Dr. Fate did not, yes?
>>81207143
Unsure, might go see at the brew-n-view; I'm kind of MEH at Joker being in it at all because I am tired of the Joker, but I'm hoping it helps diversify the superhero movie scene, and I'm grateful to it for spurring Ostrander reprints that aren't getting axed early.
How about that Grayson Annual with Jim Corrigan in it, tho
>>81207143
I don't care about the movie, but I'm glad trades are coming out and I hope Ostrander gets a fat royalty check
>>81207159
I don't care about the dogfucker thing (apart from it being a really great nickname) but Sam Humphries did give me the impression of being a total dick at the DC panel.
>>81206951
I'm so confused by the Superman situation. Are there going to be two of them? I don't know why they're continuing this fanservice when no one fucking bought Lois and Clark.
>>81206750
>dat tentacle on Hal's leg
Starro knows what's up
>>81207301
>How about that Grayson Annual with Jim Corrigan in it, tho
I approve, also I enjoy the cover
This is when they tried to turn Starro into a generic evil warlord, right?
>>81207381
Hey fuck off, this is best Starro
>>81207301
>>81207311
>I'll go see Suicide Squad out of a sense of... loyalty's the wrong word? Look, I just want John Ostrander to get gobs of money. He's the one who made that concept worth a damn. Without John Ostrander, there is no Suicide Squad. Without Suicide Squad, there is no point to life.
Michel Fiffe
I haven't seen anyone try to unblack Priest, so there's that.
Just mostly 2edgy4me plebs... Plebs in the Priest-unfaithful sense, since Mr. Stroke's been really shitty for a long time and the association is natural. That and NTTfags who want him dicking with Dick.
>>81207073
>I wasn't going to make a "is this /d/?" crack in the OP, but that is ridiculously /d/, goddamn
The irony is that JSA Storytime tends to have a good deal more variety in material than /d/ does.
I mean come now. I enjoy dickgirls as much as the next person, but sometimes I want to see said cock open up into starfish and swallow another cock. Let's try getting creative here, people!
>>81207301
I'm a little surprised Seeley isn't on the Grayson Annual just to bridge the gap there but I guess Nightwing's Rebirth special will do that. Annual looks fun though.
Someone last thread mentioned a Platinum fighting game with Starro and that would seriously be such a good idea.
Starro gives you an excuse to include fucking anybody as an opponent so Platinum can pick all the most interesting powers and do their great beat em up mechanics. And you can have the giant Starro being both the final boss and the final boss level. It just works.
>>81207301
>Robin and Red Hood/Arsenal had FINAL ISSUE, Dr. Fate did not, yes?
Yep. I guess we'll see if he gets one next month.
>How about that Grayson Annual with Jim Corrigan in it, tho
Nice.
Simon Baz managed to get in the issue too!
Though I am confused about Fernandez drawing it. There's a Javi Fernandez and a Javier Fernandez and I have no idea which one is drawing Nightwing.
>>81207416
I wish Kim Yale were still around.
>>81207381
not exactly
>>81207301
Despero's kind of a BFD, isn't he
>>81207422
Right, I found a Chris Sims article from a few years ago that I actually kind of agreed with, lemme paste the relevant bit
>The Deathstroke of Identity Crisis, the character who succeeded where Deadpool failed at becoming a parody of the Deathstroke of New Teen Titans, is really the root of the guy who’s showing up in all this stuff today. That’s the reason he’s so hard to get excited about, because every time we see him it’s the same story of everyone telling us how we’re supposed to feel about him, because they need him in that role. He’s been pounded with a hammer to fit it, and the unavoidable reaction is that I just don’t care anymore.
I trust Priest to revitalize Mr. Stroke, as much as anyone can.
>>81207502
Did they flip flop and change their minds? I don't see why Starro's true form can't be the big Starfish but he has this humanoid avatar for when he needs it.
>>81207416
>>81207311
>>81207301
You guys are more negative than I expected! I think the casting looks pretty great (Viola Davis is perfect) and this whole movie seems on a weird beat I don't think any cape movie has delivered before. I'm kind of interested in Leto's joker just from that shot of him in the tuxedo honestly.
>>81207557
This annual explains it butthe starfish part is separate from the humanoid currently in control of it rather than the humanoid being the "true" version
>>81207422
I want him to dick Dick but I also want Priest to write him.
Hopefully he'll write him as well as Wolfman did. More complex and actually show us he's badass instead of having Slade tell us.
>>81207545
So in the Booth Titans designs, the chick in green is Lilith. That's kind of old-school.
>>81207588
Joker is just like an automatic -100 to anything for me and I don't give any fucks about any Harley, but a lot of it does look really promising
>>81207545
>Despero's kind of a BFD, isn't he
2SWOLE2CONTROL
Also clearly has never seen Alien, or he'd know better than to try taking that facehugger off.
>>81207643
kek
>>81207588
For me? It's more of a "this is like, 20% of what I loved about the actual comic, it'll have to be good entirely on its own merits and diversions" sort of thing.
Also, I don't see shit in theaters, because holy shit the audiences here are horrible.
>>81207643
>So in the Booth Titans designs, the chick in green is Lilith. That's kind of old-school.
And with Flash and Titans having "YOU GOTTA READ THE REBIRTH ONESHOT", not having adult Wally would just be a cruel joke tbqh
Though with all the negativity here about Titans being bad because of rehashing, them having 60s and 70s Titans WOULD make it more unique right off the bat.
Shame Booth is drawing it.
>>81207643
I got the worst sunburn today /o\
>>81207714
Yeah it doesn't look the squad I love
>>81207764
Right, I'm more interested in something that's leapfrogging further back than NTT, just out of variety
I am really hoping those ded Stargirl rumors are bullshit.
>>81207764
It wouldn't make sense to make such a big deal about anyone but Wally.
>>81207643
Despero, you dipshit. Fucking told you not to take off the facehugger.
>Joker is just like an automatic -100 to anything for me and I don't give any fucks about any Harley
Same. Both Joker and Harley stroking has gotten way out of control, and needs to stop. STOP.
Especially fuck the Harley-fags trying to paint her as a feminist icon. What the fuck.
AWW YEAH STARRO
Suck it Darkseid, this fucker punches dudes with the power of 9 galaxies.
Oh but I'm sure your 3 billion fists is still impressive.
>>81207588
>>81207643
Yeah the Joker and Harley stuff killed my interest.
>>81207848in during cobalt blue

Ngl the Wally teasing is kinda hilarious

>tfw Superboy Prime taps into the Speedforce and joins the TT
>>81207914
lmao
>>81207869
Apparently the current ongoing is pretty explicitly feminist in some readings, but I still don't give a shit about Harley
>>81207921
She's actually trying a more ambitious gambit than that. You know how in comics, the dead are only dead until they come back?it was easter yesterday
>>81207841
What Stargirl rumors?
>>81207841
I literally don't give a fuck about these two fighting vs. all the weird faction run-downs and double-crossing from the last threads. It's like the writer switched.
>all this talk about speedsters
I miss Jesse.
>>81207841
>I am really hoping those ded Stargirl rumors are bullshit.
I kinda doubt Geoff will actually allow anything to happen to his imouto.
>>81208031
Those ones that some dude posted on /co/ a while back, the insider? That Stargirl dying was some tradeoff, but it had to do with the JSA missing from history for a reason, etc.
Some of the shit he posted seems to be a little in line with what we're finding out.
>>81208033
it's a background sort of Annual
>>81207913
The Joker looks interesting enough visually (like the tuxedo, panda costume, eyeball goon, clock of knives, sickly green color palette) to draw me in. Unlike that shot of the Transformers-style twisted metal monster.
>>81208031
She killed Stargirl in Bombshells #12, so people are saying she got kicked off of Wonder Woman because of it.
And for some reason /co/ believes that Stargirl died in a plane crash when that wasn't how it went, but who here reads comics
>>81208146
>Doxxx
somewhere, Axel Braun perks up
>>81208146
>Those ones that some dude posted on /co/ a while back, the insider? That Stargirl dying was some tradeoff, but it had to do with the JSA missing from history for a reason, etc.
oh wait, what? is this something different from the Bombshells thing?
that's really fucking weird, I can't imagine Geoff voluntarily letting anybody off main continuity Stargirl
>>81208146
That doesn't make sense , why would they have to kill stargirl?
>>81208177
Whoops wrong Stargirl rumor
Got that and all the Bennet talk mixed up
>>81208177
That's definitely not true, but I CAN believe the 'Johns runs into Rucka, asks him to come back and do WW for Rebirth, literally doesn't know who Bennett is' line.
>>81208214
They wouldn't, but she still made a deal with Satan that he hasn't collected on.
>>81207841
Sometime we should read 60's Teen Titans, it's hilarious.
>>81208146
LOL, oh that. IIRC, a lot of that stuff was pulled from Bleeding Cool rumors (the Stargirl thing not included) so anything accurate is probably just from Rich the Leech's source.
>>81208194
It really is a shame Axel Braun isn't like, much much better at porn than he is.
>>81208168
I just have a lifetime of seeing The Joker and I'm really fucking tired of him
>>81208274
That's one tall-ass drink.
>>81208197
Lemme see if I can find this shit in desu
>>81208294
I think it was more that Rich copied it off of here, but it's an ourobouros of bullshit, for sure
>>81208312
the actual porn is so underwhelming.
>>81207841
>Right, I'm more interested in something that's leapfrogging further back than NTT, just out of variety
I know right
I kinda want Abnett to do something with Bumblebee because literally nobody has
On comic vine, it has Tiny Titans has her most appearances in one bookAlso the team is looking really white and I don't want DC to get in trouble
>>81208312
I'd really like to think that there's going to be a new generation of parodymakers who build on his groundwork to do something even better.
>>81208251
Yeah I'm 99% sure Johns doesn't even read Bombshells or pay attention to it
Like Bennett has said that she listens and works with one or two editors to keep her on track and that's it
Her being sick and not being able to write fast enough seems way more likely than Johns getting mad
>>81208370
say, that previous page is pretty /d/, spore on the face and all
>>81208376
there's a Bumblebee vocal fandom on twitter but it seems mostly aspirational, like "We like her design! Do something with her!"
>>81208370
There's a Zizek line about porn being afraid of being sincere and while I don't buy that as an absolute it's a really accurate summary of porn as an industry. Braun's shit is the typical macho shit.
>>81207932
D-Don't tease me, anon...
>>81208370
>he took off the facehugger
BTW OP my offer from yesterday is still open. I'm willing to buy Zemo for you in AA if you'd like.
>>81208482
Hey, I can get liking a character because they look neat and might be pretty cool if they had a chance.
>>81208482
I can empathize with aspirational fans. Nothing better than someone picking up MEL or some other cult fave and making it work.
>>81208482
I can get behind that
I still find it funny how Bumblebee has shown up in THREE adaptations, but she doesn't show up anywhere but event and Titans splash pages
>>81208482
here's the thread: it's probably bullshit, but we can play scorecard
http://desustorage.org/co/thread/80085175/#80085257
Found that thread with the Stargirl stuff and my favorite comment:
http://desustorage.org/co/thread/80085175/#q80086565
>>81208482
IMMEDIATELY suspicious of how that wasteland got so dead and skully in the first place with her around.
>>81208482
Hey, her design is pretty alright.
I used to like the TT Bumblebee because of her B shaped stingers.
>>81208542
Zemo isn't available anymore :(
>>81208578
>>81208582
>>81208592
Fans have a reasonably good sense of "This character could be enjoyable with a little work", and I'm all for building more different things.
>>81208602
>>81208618
I never know how much to buy into creators weaponizing characters against creators rumors because it seems so ridiculous but then again it actually has happened a whole bunch of times.
>>81208695
And I'm an immense fan of Rocafort's Donna. Doesn't exist, and I don't even like Donna, but it would be neat.
>>81208618
>(The idea of a new Star Spangled Kid/eliminating Star Girl, is not Geoff's idea. His sister's fictional avatar is being sacrificed, by order of Bob Harras, to ensure Geoff "sacrifices" too, since Harras is firmly in the "stay the course" camp and against the DC Rebirth changes).
that almost sounds insane and mean enough to be true!it's probably not though
>>81208015
>Apparently the current ongoing is pretty explicitly feminist in some readings,
I really hope that's not the case, because attaching anything feminist to Harley Quinn is a terrible idea.
>B-but, she escaped her abusive relationship!
She's also a violent psychopath. What next, we gonna start propping up Lorena Bobbitt as a feminist icon? Come the fuck on now.
>>81208784
Cutting an abusive husband's dick off is a pretty feminist move tho
>>81208784
You mean Bobbitt's not a feminist icon?
>>81208784
folie a deux HQ > Joker is at fault HQ IMO
but people have written the latter a whole lot more than the former, so canon's canon
>>81208714
Whaaaat. He'll be purchasable again later on, right? Is the app popular enough for them to be able to have one-time-only characters?
>>81208714
yeah, Harley's definitely popular--and now monetized like woah--enough to be softened into an anti-hero at worst
>>81208918
We can hope they'll start rotating things back through
>>81208618
Oh yeah. I remember that Wally JSA thing was like 2 drafts from good
>>81209010

>>81208918
>>81208972
Supposedly there's in-game data about him being available later on for $5 but there's no guarantee they actually activate it. Right now it seems like he has a set level when he's available for new players and old players who already passed on the chance to buy him can't get him anymore.
>>81208146
That shit sounded fake as fuck desu, I don't see any executives being that cruel that they'd demand a bloody sacrifice from Johns, not even Harass.
>>81209096
>>81209224
ffffuuuuuck this world
>>81209096
>The truth is you have made your people soft, easy pickings for one such as I.

>Siberian Unicorn

>>81208407
>Silver Age of comic book porn parodies
>>81209250
Considering Johns make money for them and Harras is there entirely because he has hardcore blackmail materialyeah it's true, harras gets what he wants
>>81209170
I remember when a friend of mine found Russian Jackass on the intertubes
Robinson is much more chipper these days. Being sober and moving to Vegas have been good to him.
>>81209250
It's just dumb enough that it's believable to me.
>>81209420
>>81209390
when he's in good form, he's a really funny troll.
>>81209402
A-anon, no...And I thought it was Berganza that had blackmail, not Harras?
>>81209420
Who needs Jackass when you have Russian car crash compilations?
>>81209224
It doesn't make sense not to activate it, though. I mean, $20 is only justifiable if it's early access to the character that will be available for less later on. By not doing that, you're basically threatening users to buy characters at high prices because they'll never be available again. And that's no model for a successful f2p waiting sim
>>81209454
>>81209491
those fucking dashcam videos, the one of the accordion bus in the iced-up tunnel is hilarious and terrifying
>>81208618
Oh shit, that's my post hah
>>81209454
Robinson does totes inappropes so well, but it's Hickman who just makes me bust my shit laughing. It's also why I don't trust the Legion thing, sadly, but I'm amused regardless.
>>81209526
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G283c3DAC3c
Speaking of Stargirl, "Kortni". Something about Courtney as a Russkie complete with thick accent sounds goddamned adorable.
>>81209420
>You cannot reason with me. You cannot bargain with me.
It's always weird to see a villain acknowledge that they are the villain.
>>81209499
It could be like a year or two off before they turn it on though. I could see them waiting a while since they've already pissed paying customers off with stuff like changing the event requirements after people bought generators. Surely they'll want movie popularity dosh though.
>>81209645
any Russophones able to say if that's a decent parsing of her name?
>>81209569
I would lose it laughing if Hickman went full troll with Legion stuff and start tweeting like graphs and shit with hints they're LOSH relatedbut then everyone would take it seriously and it'd get weird
>>81209645
She and Powergirl are the Night Witches in the book, IIRC.

>>81209813
wow real fuckin goofball parade going on here
>>81209813
Oh honey, Dox always has an army
>>81209683
Do apps like this even maintain their popularity that long? I have very little experience with them, but I'd think that aside from kids with access to their parents' credit cards, most people would just drop it once the grind sets in.
>>81209813
Brunt looks so goofy and Silver Agey.
>>81209569
It baffles me how Hickman can show so much personality online, but then completely drain it out of his characters.
Good god, I do not want a Hickman Legion ever, he couldn't even handle the size of his own Avengers team.
>>81209813
>Gee Acarinus, how come you get TWO starros?!
>>81209929
He looks like he's from an Archie Sonic or Megaman comic.
>>81209945
His twitter is legitmately funnier than his books
>>81209904
Some of them like Clash of Clans do. I think with a popular franchise you have more of a shot of sticking around than just a generic one though.
>>81209813
No, Limina, you're thinking of the other Vril Dox.
By the way, I love this trope. Where the villain has a collection of colorful goons who command their army. It's dirt common, but still nice.
>>81209945
I don't get y'all who are crazy for Hickman LOSH either. I'm gonna turn into Bitch Hickman if that stuff happens. Hickman FF = good Hickman Avengers = really not good.
How hard would you lose it if the Time Trapper gave the Everything Dies speech

>>81209894

I'm coming just thinking about it
>>81210121
I think that's a very generous estimate.

People should really learn some things about Space before try try talking about it. Our own Galaxy alone is unbelievably huge. As a frame of reference, all of Star Trek takes place in a tiny part of the Galaxy and the Federation has only explored 1/septillionth of it or something.
>>81210294
I really did enjoy Hickman F4/FF until the last few issues, but I was uneasy about his Avengers from the opening narration, and it proved out.
I don't wanna read his Legion but I would love to hear Hickman's idea about it

>>81210356
we all blow money on dumb shit occasionally. I've cried when I killed pricey plants out of stupidity/accident.
>>81210400
It was really weird seeing people argue that 1. the bloated cast was necessary and 2. because the cast was bloated, Hickman was justified with doing nothing with about 3/4ths of them.
Just... make a smaller cast? You're not gonna do anything with Falcon or Spider-Woman, just don't include them. Hell, Beast never got to do anything in the Illuminati, and it took Dr. Strange about 12 or more issues before he got to do shit.

I'm ok OP. How are you?

My brother brought a huge cheesecake for Easter and we have enough of it to last for a week.
>>81210759
I made a cheesecake recently. It somehow came out a centimeter tall.
>>81210742
I wouldn't know, I don't read furshit
>>81210722
I'm really, really on-board with Starro's command crew being essentially He-Man villains in both look and planning abilities.

>>81210798
Now we just need some Skeletor up in this motherfucker

I know of a few others in Landis' circle and they genuinely seem like smart kids who never grew up.

>>81211008
Everything about him does scream "spoiled nerd", yeah.
There's the slight noticeable difference of aggression you can see in him of getting whatever he wants versus regular bitter nerds who still want revenge on anyone, real or imagined, who ever made fun of them.
>>81211038
Lameass bike, tho.

On the one hand, a full jacket would look cooler.
On the other hand, if I had those abs, I'd be looking for excuses to show off too.

hahaha this kid
>>81211038
Nice abs, Diana.
All Amazons should be drawn with muscle. Just gonna put that out there.
>>81211217
Now, just imagine if that was how Superman overcame the kryptonite gas in BvS.
>>81210938
I just did and... goddamn. "Profane dog nipples" is all I'll say. Fucking weirdo.
>>81211132I didn't know you were that way inclined, storyteller
>>81211251
Nobody is gonna dispute that
>>81211217
Hold on, what the fuck is this stupid shit?
>>81211314
Landis rambling about Wonder Woman
>>81211314
Landis was asked what his take on WW would be.
>>81211306
Nice abs are nice abs
>>81210938
I did not see it
Can somebody link it or quote the most insane parts?
>>81211038
10/10
Shame about it being so fucking expensive though
>>81211387
Do you think Starros moult?
>>81211114
>>81211132
And I can see why people don't like retconning all the Starro fights as the control of the humanoid guy but I think establishing that the Starro race is still parasitic on its own anyway kind of makes it not a big deal to me.
>>81211339
>>81211350
Ah, so he's an idiot.
>"sickest most badass punisher"
And he's one of THOSE assholes as well. Fantastic.
>>81211417
>Another fan, someone who Max Landis recognizes on Twitter because he is part of the group of 40 people who rarely say anything anti-Semitic, asked how Landis would do Wonder Woman…
>He explained that in his view, Wonder Woman is a flawed character. She doesn’t share this flaw with the other male Justice League members. How she was created to be cheesecake and exploitative, and that there’s yet to be a definitive Wonder Woman story. But that as a character, she’s meaner than Batman, smarter than Superman, almost as strong, but knows martial arts because Superman never needed to learn them, so then he gets ambushed by her using Navy Seal training. What Landis says he is interested in is creating a fundamentally awful version of the character than will piss off everyone, which is “SO MUCH FUN!” While he feels that his Superman’s only flaw is the limits of what he knows and that he makes impulsive choices, his Batman is essentially a monstrous sociopath, but who won’t kill because killing is wrong, his Wonder Woman would be really terrible, as she’d come from a society that hates men, she can kill anyone who argues with her and will, and while there’s a lot of interesting places to take this interpretation of the character, she’s from a society of warriors who “CUT THEIR BOOBS OFF” and who killed all the men, except the cute ones, bred with them and THEN killed them. How she is even on the Justice League amazes him, as he considers Wonder Woman to be the “sickest most bad ass punisher.” He then described a fight sequence where Superman and Batman have to team up to stop her, and after she brutally attacks them, leaving Superman almost missing an eye, Superman is finally able to defeat her by kissing her and sucking all the air out of her lungs.

Yeah it's basically like a freak accident to produce the composite. Your ordinary ruler starro will still be a giant space starfish.
Just in this instance a juvenile ruler one hit a crazy psychic genocide bomb and boom, space barbarians.

>>81211547
isn't it just?
>>81211554
Awwww, rock family. <3
>>81211488
Okay so yeah, he is an idiot, but he's an ideas guy who isn't entirely bad all the time. Landis seems like a complete and total tool but I'd be quite happy for him to write a shit ton of comics.
The last few issues of American Alien have been pretty solid.
>>81211554
awww, their kid is adorable
>>81211499
>being this fucking wrong about everything to do with Wonder Woman
Holy shit. Max Landis is /co/!
>>81211602
Just be sure he's actually being edited
>>81211648
Landis at Marvel would be a thing to fucking see.
I dunno where else to ask but is Weekly Shonen Jump really just 99 cents an issue on comixology? If so no wonder people are jumping to manga my god.
>>81211602
Yeah, if there's someone to wrangle him and separate the wheat from chaff he can be alright
>>81211562
I think if anything I would have left the old JLA fights and shit alone and had the bald guy only recently taken control and built up the empire. But it's definitely not a thing that would stop future creators from using the starfish alone.

>>81211789
>"I need to keep you my people's equivalent of retarded, so do everything I say."
Vril pls.
>>81211688
It's 99 cents, yeah. 25.99 for a whole year. That's from Viz, not just comixology. I don't care about anything in Jump but OPM and MHA though (which sadly has started to dip lately).
If there's ever another Mangaverse project they seriously need to hire Horikoshi for X-Men.
>>81211499

If you could put /co/ into a person it'd probably be a less successful less confident Landis, yeah.

I didn't even look at the Omega Men preview, I have this pure experience of it in floppy form

Well, she is. Deeply flawed as a matter of fact, which is why she barely has any fans in the first place.
>>81211717
Why am I shipping it?
>>81211788
>>81211836
ahh, that's fucking insanely good pricing. fuck i'll check it out like 150 pages? one's probably good. maybe if one piece is still running by the time i catch up
>>81211789
>>81211811
I love how Lyrl has the balls to bitch about daddy not being there for him. That little bastard.
>>81211507
I like how Darkfire's Starro is off to the side so it only obscures one ab.
>>81211688
Yeah, they've recovered really well from the manga bubble, even with rampant piracy. It's just a way better fucking deal, on every front.
>>81211900
>>81211920
Oh just you wait, this run has a lot of Lyrl shenanigans
>>81211860
Aww yeah.
>>81211918
when WSJ first starting publishing on comixology it was really sloppy and they failed to do stuff like connect double page spreads so I never touched it again
hopefully more recent stuff has fixed that
>>81211918
Boku no Hero Academia is good superhero stuff. I think they did this weird thing where they kicked off on a middle chapter in WSJ though.
The author has had two or three cancelled series already so he had death on his back going into this and it paid off. It's slowing up now but the first 50 chapters or so are tremendous.

Set shortly after the formation of the Justice League, Batman introduces his new partner Robin (Dick Grayson) to the team just as it’s pulled into a deadly assault on Metropolis by mysterious creatures.

there's like "justice league part 1" and "justice league part 2" and then "other" and I think those cover everything non-bat related

>Hey, remind me--we tend to call it "the Superman office" but it's more just a general conglomeration that involves Superman and other books, right? it's not as distinct as The Bat Office?
Apparently. Honestly, I find it kind of sad that the Bat books are so numerous and such a priority that they need their own editorial office.

>>81212894
we Blackest Night now, yeah
>>81212796
Speaking of sidekicks, what exactly was Donna's deal in Titan Hunt? Did they actually do the smart thing and make her a living anomaly like in 52? Or was it something lame that made her come back?
>>81212916
I miss you, Lobo.
>>81212916
We didn't see much of Vril from 1996 or so until now.
>>81212916
Did nobody tell the artist Stealth's hair runs down her spine?
>>81212916
...Several consecutive non-consensual acts?
>>81212747
Yes
There was a "Superman office" at the beginning of the new 52, but after the Young Justice, Dark, and Edge lines kinda imploded and Supergirl and Superboy got cancelled, it became more like "Justice League part 1" and "Justice League part 2". Then everything seemed more like a mishmash of titles grouped together. Like Omega Men, Dr Fate, and Hellblazer being edited by the same guy.
>>81212747
Which reminds me of the OTHER reason a woman probably ain't gonna be involved too much with the Wonder Woman stuff.
I had completely forgotten about that.
>>81213014
is that fucking Kyle in the Triple H pose?
>>81213008
Ahh, got it. I remember they used to group things that way and it faded out at some point.

Actually, that explains Supergirl as well, as long as they're in the same editorial umbrella. Orlando looks too much like a drunk zombie, the madman, he doesn't count.

how does she have a homeworld
>>81213057
>is that fucking Kyle in the Triple H pose?
I think that's Hal
>>81213040
Pretty sure that only mean female editors rather than creators. Or at least the group editors wouldn't have to have direct contact with the people doing books. All of Lupacchino's ongoings have been there, for example.
>>81213057
oh god, I recognized it immediately and I hate every living thing on earth now
>>81213057

>>81213062
You mean Lydea? Pretty sure she went back to Talok VIII.
>>81212960
I wish I knew but alas I haven't been keeping up.
I still find it funny how they fucked her up even though she had just started existing like 6 months prior to Titans Hunt
That is just so Donna.
>>81213057
So Alex Antone is editing Mr. Stroke, Titans, Teen Titans, and RHATO.
Khouri's on Green Arrow and the Skwad (with Cunningham), I assume still on Dr. Fate, and I think other things he's not talking about yet.
>>81213112

One can only imagine what kind of place Gryx is. Probably as fucked up and confusing as its only known life form.
>>81213220
I don't know. I have no idea what Mike Cotton is still on: he's been on the trashfire of Finch Wondy, TT, and E2S, and he keeps retweeting EVS GL stuff
>>81213237
This was the first time I heard about Starro because when BN came out I read literally every tie-in they made. It was... quite the ride.
>>81213309
daaaang
the Suicide Squad one was so good. I would flip tables to see Ostrander doing some DC stuff again.
>>81213305
The Bennett rumor makes me hopeful that Cotton has been fired, supposedly the editors got switched and that's why she lost the job.
>>81213166
>I still find it funny how they fucked her up even though she had just started existing like 6 months prior to Titans Hunt
>That is just so Donna.
This is why I'm sticking to 52's explanation of Donna being a living multiversal anomaly. She's a sentient continuity error. It's fucking consistent!
>>81213309
>>81213351
I should clarify I meant THIS Starro, I already knew about the giant starfish long ago.
>>81213351
I'd rather have more Grimjack
>>81213376
He could have just been switched off a title and onto something like GL, hence all the EVS retweets
is he editing EoO?
THAT'S OUR LYRL!
>>81213305
>he keeps retweeting EVS GL stuff
welp
>>81213305
pretty sure EVS is just gonna get to do whatever he wants with his GL book
>>81213416
>onto something like GL
haven't we suffered enough?
>THAT'S OUR LYRL!
oh damn, he's pretty crafty even as a Coluan equivalent of a retard!
>>81213305
>he keeps retweeting EVS GL stuff
STOP
>>81213381
She and Hawkman should talk about this sort of stuff together and make a support group or something

reminder that Ostrander writes a regular column for a site no one seems to talk about:
http://www.comicmix.com/2016/03/27/john-ostrander-dont-look-down/
>>81213437
it sounds like EVS is going to backseat drive HJGLC as best as he can
that's probably not a bad thing, he might help Venditti improve and if it ends up even worse, well it's not like I'm expecting much to begin with
>>81213505
In his rant/defense on CBR he talked about how he wanted a GL book to do whatever he wanted with like Finch got Dark Knight

LYRRRRRRRRRRL!!!
Fuckin' Braniacs.
>>81213465
>She and Hawkman should talk about this sort of stuff together and make a support group or something
I would read the hell out of that.
>>81213499
Awww, Vril cares
I think
>>81213562
He's right that it 'shrank', that's a good way to put it
>>81213309
I read most of the first issue of the tie-ins. I only really remember the Adventure Comics one though (Superhusbando Prime was fun).
>>81213499
Ostrander is on my list of "people I selfishly want to hug tons."
>>81213581
>>Fuckin' Braniacs.
What? He's saving their lives by being a dick, that's pretty good for a Dox.
>>81213585
Oh lol, he was arguing with Desh, that's got to be 'fun'
>>81213597
me too
>>81213562
>but I mostly watched from the sidelines, unhappily, while other creators worked on this book and these characters.
>My hope is that if we do a fantastic book, and win back readers again, the franchise will grow once more. As it stands, I'm shocked at it's position on the top 300 charts. I can list a hundred different reasons why I believe this has happened. But I want to keep things positive, restore what works, and create new stuff to expand and enrich.
>My feeling is that GREEN LANTERN has shrunk. There's blame to go around, but look, we've got a progressive new GREEN LANTERNS title with a fresh approach, and then a classic title with the flavor of the Joe Staton run. Those are the two book we have to build from. I think we can do great things, but we need fan support.
I enjoy his enthusiasm, if nothing else
and yeah that sort of sounds like he didn't like Venditti's GL much before despite drawing a couple issues
>>81213416
Cotton had Sinestro before, right? There was one good book that he had at least.
>>81213585
>Awww, Vril cares
>I think
Heh.
That does raise a question though: Is Vril a sociopath? Not the bullshit Hollywood version that translates to "muhaha evil", but like, legit does not possess a sense of empathy.
>>81213674
>>81213703
I'd have to check, but I wanna finish this issue, lol
>>81213585
Vril really does love his son. I mean, if Lyrl was anyone else he would have just had him killed years ago.
>>81213703
I strongly doubt it was because he paid attention to it. "Magenta people and stupid gay weaboo space elves? Fuck this shit."
>>81213703
Sinestro had Cotton AND Berganza
how did that book end up so good
>>81213773
Stopped clock and all
>>81213773
Woooow
>>81213820
we're fucked
>>81207073
Incidentally The Doom That Came To Gotham was fucking fantastic. Mike Mignola did the art, I think. If not, it was absolutely his signature style.

>>81213499
>Dennis O’Neil: Can You Teach Writers How To Write?
Snyder could use a class or two, instead of teaching them.
>>81213737
Remember Whatever Happened to the Durlan? I think it's safe to say yes, although it's not like he's incapable of being fond of people.
>>81213844
Vril is too mean to lose.
>>81213844
PANIC
>>81213862
Mignola wrote it, Troy Nixey drew it.
>>81213844
I think Starro might have bitten off more than he can chew...
>>81213885
that is one of my favorite single issues in comics
>>81213983
here comes bad mommy!
>>81213820
>>81213844
FUCK. Lyrl is gonna go full on Starscream most likely, but still, FUCK.
>>81213885
Fair enough. And he was sad that Lyrissa died, so he at least likes people or acknowledges that he needs certain people around.
>>81213998
oh shhiiieeeett they fucked now
>>81213998
dat face
>>81213998
Finally, Jesus.

woah shit
didn't Harbinger live on Themyscira for a while? When did she die?
>>81214173
this series is a reaction image goldmine
>>81214180
ahh yes, my COIE waifu
>>81214134
These jerks.
It shouldn't be this hard to bring back the rest of Cosmic DC.
>>81214215
IC or so, I think? I know they iced Pariah WHO LITERALLY CAN'T DIE during that.
>>81214134
>>81214158
>suddenly Yellow Lanterns
This whole situation is becoming a bit of a clusterfuck, huh?

We knew this was coming, right?
>>81214312
SNAZZY!
thanks for reading late, more tomorrow
>>81214339
HNNNNGGG
>>81214250
How much of IC was "FUCK YOU COIE"?
>>81214312
>>81214339
Thanks OP
Even back when I was a LEGION/REBELS noob this was a real "oh shit" moment
>>81214312
>Yellow Lantern Vril
..... I...Oh dear. This can't end well.
>>81214339
i didn't want to believe vrill could get even more smug
also dat snazzy uniform
>>81214312
couldn't they just talk it out dammit?
>>81214339
Thanks for posting as always, Storyteller.
There's so much going on right now, and then this happens. When will the madness end?
>>81214452
Black Lanterns don't want to talk, they want to make you feel and then eat your heart
>>81214289
I'd tap it. I'm not picky.
>>81214339
Lyrl with his 12th level intellect unlocked? Vril with a yellow lantern ring? This is the event that should've been named "Final Crisis "!
>>81214477
Well, she's fucked then, Vril feels only smug.
>>81214339
Thanks for posting. And thank you for introducing me to Vril.

>>81214526
what color would a smug lantern be?
>>81214571
the Sinestro Corps IS the Smug Lanterns
>>81214312
Actually, did we know Colu was sector 1287 before this? How high are Bedard's power levels?
>>81213737
>That does raise a question though: Is Vril a sociopath?
He has less empathy than the average human (though possibly not the average Coluan), but he does have some. His actions would've been very different if he was entirely absent of empathy.
>>81211499
Wow that is like early 2000s edgy emo fanfiction tier right there.
Like I'd expect that plot in a newgrounds flash cartoon.
>>81215020
I feel like sociopath is a label that's hard to define in itself. Sometimes it's used as "has no feelings" or "doesn't care about others". Which is untrue on both counts for Vril. He does seem incapable of seeing others as equals, and cares little for others feel about him unless he's getting something out of it. Even his beloved Durlan was treated with little respect, and was essentially his servant.
>>81214529
>And thank you for introducing me to Vril.
When we're done here you really should go back and check out the 90s L.E.G.I.O.N./R.E.B.E.L.S. It's pretty damn awesome.
>>81214203
Ooooh fuck.
bump of dickery
>>81214339
Fun Fact for Bump: both Vril and Lobo were explicitly banned from being eligible to getting a GL ring due to the fact both have enough willpower to jailbreak any power locks (like killing back before Sinestro Corps War) the guardians put on em.
>>81219719
Vril and Lobo complement each other well.
>>81214823
Nah I think this just popped up here.
>>81213351
I don't think he's very well.
>>81213844
>stuck between two Braniacs
Starro, you are a fucking idiot
>>81206707
>REBELS
This is possibly my favorite pre flashpoint run.
Thank you,anon.
>>81214107
Oh man, Vril is proud despite everything. He really is the worst dad.
>>81223847
He is the best worst dad
>>81223847
better dad than Brainiac for sure at least
