Literally kill yourselves.
>>82976745
From a review:But in a comic full of big moments, there’s one that will stand out above the rest — namely, that the malevolent force that has stolen 10 years from the DC Universe (and murdered Pandora, the symbol of the New 52, in a particularly subversive jab) is none other than Watchmen’s Dr. Manhattan. When you read it, you might feel the air leave you, and it might be one of the smartest bits Johns has come up with since Sinestro Corps War. Of course the cynicism of the DC Universe began here — and the only way to counteract that is to call out the “world’s greatest graphic novel” for its sins. It serves to both heighten the stakes tremendously, as Johns taps into DC’s final frontier, but also serves as a great bit of metacommentary.
>>82976440
>why is it drawn so badly?
I like his art.
>>82976282
If this isn't referencing Pax, it's GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
>>82976831
>Muh New 52 was grimdark because of Watchmen
>Now the hope is being restored by reversing it all
>It's all a metacommentary
Fuck this shit
>>82976822
I'm just talking about that particular pic, it looks bad, nothing against the artist in general I suppose.
>>82976282
What the fuck? Is that relating to fucking watchmen?
>>82976282
Good god Batman, did the joker pump your arm with helium?
>>82976988
Yeah Identity Crisis is way more to blame in modern DC. The mid 2000's were just mean spirited
>>82977017
It doesn't look bad, you have a bad eye.
>>82977060
Maybe they're making Batman: Venom canon again.
>>82977162
Okay.
Calm down anon, don't take it personal.
>>82976831
That actually sounds cool. Too bad no one will care because "ablo ablo Im a big baby why make watchman canon"
>>82976831
Isn't Johns the guy who does Silver/Bronze age villains with the twist that they're into mutilation rape and drugs and who's stolen every tiny idea in Moore's DCU comics to "expand" on them with shit like Blackest Night?
What about that squad of space cunts who literally throw up blood or "I never wanted children scene"? What I'm saying is if anyone shold be making these statements it's def NOT him
>>82976831
ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!?!?!?!!?
I'M DONE WITH YOUR SHIT, DC!
FUCKING DONE!
>>82976831
What if the DCEU is grimark because Snyder made Watchmen toó?
Yfw Film's rebirth?
>>82977831
Pretty much, Johns likes his villains doing atrocious acts but as long as they're COOL there is not prob...
>>82976364
You jest, but he has written entire books on the subject.
STAR WARS vs. MARVEL WHEN
>>82977372
Yeah it's great. Next arc they should have Eva unit 01 be the villain.
>>82976282
Jesus fucking christ.
I have no words that can describe my current feelings.
Literally LOL JUST TRY AND STOP US ALAN WB LAWYERS FTW: The comic book universe
>>82976831
Hold the fucking phone. Manhattan is interacting with the maing DC Universe?
>>82979738
He MADE the New52 multiverse
he is also gonna be in the movies now starting with the JL one
>>82976282
cool
>>82979918
Fuck off
>>82978072
Bring it.
>Johns gives chemotherapy to the DC universe
And /co/ misinterprets this as bad, how exactly?
>>82979918
Wasn't Pandora the creator of the 52 bia Barry? And wasn't she the supposed to be the one to integrate Wildstorm and Vertigo?
>>82980078
Thats being retconned away to give way for Dr Manhattan
I haven't read comics in awhile.
When people talk about New 52 do they mean the reboot way back in 2010/2011 or is there some New 52 newer than that which Doc Blue Dick has apparently interacted with
>>82980175
The reboot
>>82980043
It's just dummies who haven't read the reviews to understand context. Everyone was mad before those came out. Smart for DC to pull back the spoiler embargo in reaction to the leak.
>>82976831
What ten years are they referring to?
>>82980404
Why are people so convinced on the basis of the reviews that this is going to go anywhere worthwhile? The reveal is the end of the issue.
>>82980426
The 90's. Manhattan tried to remove the 90's from existence.
>>82980518
I wish he'd remove the 2010's, too
>>82980426
nu52 starts 5 years in + 5 years since it started
>>82980518
>DC retconning their best era away
>Comics became shit
Makes sense
>>82980514
it seems to be in a meta enough sense that it might not matter much in the long run
you're free to worry about stories that aren't confirmed yet if you want I guess
>>82976282
whats this i hear about there being 3 jokers. is there any elaboration
it kind of reeks of desperation on DC's part. We'll see.
So, they didn't learn diddily-squat from Before Watchmen. Also, there's three Jokers and two Wallys now. You welcome.
>>82976282
Is Batman happy to see button?
Where can they honestly go from here? It's practically a given that Manhattan will show up, but will they stop there? Do you think they might bring Rorschach or Nite Owl in since they have DCU equivalents who are still relevant in the main comics?
>>82976282
I have been told otherwise
>>82983238
Yeah... i heard something completely different.
>>82977029
BasicallyRebirth is not a reboot, the events of the new 52 will remain canon as it turns out this is still the pre Flashpoint universe but was manipulated by a higher entity which we know now to be Dr.Manhattan, which could mean anything from he messing up with the DC universe during the new 52 only, to the stretch where he could actually be responsible for the creation of that reality itself, after the events of Watchmen where he is hinted to experiment on life creation
>Manhattan messing with universal forces
Jesus it's like people that have never read Watchmen and only know about Manhattan from internet memes are writing DC now.
>>82983950
Just you wait until it's revealed Manhattan created DC on last page of his Before Watchmen mini.
>>82977971
>Geoff Johns is overseeing the DCEU now too
>>82983878
If it's the same universe, why did Convergence treat pre-New 52 like a separate world? Hell, it outright stated it was.
>>82980043
Disney bux
>>82983798
He isn't fighting the future
>>82984094
>Implying that he isn't fighting fate.
Do you even read the manga?
>>82984088
Mainly because this is stuff they pulled out of their ass for this event
>>82984172
Yeah, true that, but it will be interesting to see if they just say fuck it or if they explain that shit. At the time, they made Convergence sound like a big deal!
>>82978064
This. Johns doesn't even like Wally, he liked his villains.
>>82976745
Joker is the Comedian
>>82976282
my god it actually worked
>>82977831
>Isn't Johns the guy who does Silver/Bronze age villains with the twist that they're into mutilation rape and drugs and who's stolen every tiny idea in Moore's DCU comics to "expand" on them with shit like Blackest Night?
When you put it like that, it was almost inevitable that Johns would eventually cannibalize one of Moore's major works. We should have seen this coming.
>>82984113
Not the same thing, it's like saying that fighting bees and wasps are the same thing.
>/co/ suddenly hates Johns
>>82984962
>/co/
you mean /tv/
>>82976831
Is DC on the ropes THIS badly?
>>82984962
not everyone was a fan of LE CEREAL KING to begin with
>>82984962
I haven't liked him since Blackest Night. He's a one trick pony who keeps on doing the same trick
>>82985008
Let's just say 27% isn't just their current film score
Is it just me, or is this really retarded?
And just watch, when Rebirth ends up as much of a failure as New-52 they'll have the Endless step in to slap Manhattan's shit.
>>82985057
>implying seeing /co/ backpedal continuously and try to claim that as a brilliant move won't be entertaining
Seriously, seeing the extent people on here will go to defend stupid shit publishers do is the most entertaining thing I see relating to comics
I think my only real issue is that I prefer when some works stand alone. Watchmen being one of them. I don't see the purpose in somehow making it canon with all the other stories and characters.
Isn't this almost exactly what Molecule Man was doing with Franklin Richards at the end of Secret Wars?
>>82976831
Wait did anybody auctualy continue to care about Pandora after the retarded twist in #12 (and the general decline in quality of the 5 issues previous)
>>82985043
Of course it is, but to be fair none of us have actually read it yet.
If you look at what has been leaked, it's pretty clear how much /co/ has tricked itself into believing as gospel through speculation and chinese whispers.
>>82976282
I really should get round to reading Watchmen even if only so I can join in the outrage
Haven't people learned that everytime you sully Moore's work disaster falls upon them?
So, where can I read it?
>>82985136
Hop off anytime, anon.
This DC comic panel perfectly sums up my feelings after reading a DC comic or watching one of the movies.
>>82976282
>>82976831
I'll start crying when Cereal King barges into my house and rips up my copy of Watchmen.
until then, spare me your drama /co/
This is like Miracleman showing up in some random Bendis book.
>>82985008
Does "on the ropes" mean something new? They're making good comics.
>>82985197
>you
>reading a comic
lol that'll be the day
>>82985248
Except Miracleman was good. Watchmen is poison.
>>82985248
In prevous thread we speculated that V will join Freedom Force.
>>82985057
But Disneyfriend, New 52 sales were at the same levels as pre-Flashpoint, sometimes even better.
Surely you're not just spouting uneducated shitposts, r...right?
>>82976282
>Wally is back
>Watchmen is canon
WHAT IS THIS EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER RIDE AND WHERE DO I GET OFF
>>82985089
Because
>1) Watchmen was always part of the Dac Universe, and
>2) Watchmen was never standalone.
Watchmen directly affected the entire industry for decades. Watchemen was built on the backs or everything before it, and shaped everything afterwards. It is a creative bottleneck that has shaped the entire industry. Even Alan admits it was for the worst.
Look at Marvel. Everything is grim as fuck events and insipid saccharine waifu bait. DC has been murdering characters for character development for ages.
It is high time that Watchmen be removed from its pedestal so that it stops being something writers idealize.
>>82976831
No Johns, FUCK you. The current situation is DC is not due to some nebulous influence from Watchmen, it is a DIRECT RESULT of YOUR decisions to throw out decades of history and push your fucking favorite characters. You don't get to pawn the blame for your terrible stories off on something that was actually original and good.
So would this be a good point for me to start reading DC since everything seems semi rebooted, especially since I have no knowledge or attachment to how the characters should be written/act?
If it helpsCivil Warwas the first Marvel story I read and Ilikedit
>>82985408
Remains to be seen. Wait a couple months and ask again.
>>82985388
This is a proper conclusion for someone who didn't understand the fucking point of Watchmen.
>>82985388
>It is high time that Watchmen be removed from its pedestal so that it stops being something writers idealize.
Like that's going to happen because of this.
>>82976282
Wrong.
I'm Ant-Man
>>82976831
He hated Multiversity that much?
I feel fear for the last time.
>>82985430
>muh shitty comic is 2deep4u
Is it any surprise that Snyder was a Watchmenbabby?
Watchmen is trash, and now it's being put in its place.
>>82985388
And? You can hardly blame a work for a bunch of tryhards attempting to copy it. That foolish behavior is on their heads, not on the original work in question.
Additionally, this doesn't solve the problem that you seem to be talking about. Watchmen is a self-contained story line, one that has nothing before or after it, nor does it have any real, tangible relation to other comic stories. Placing it in the DC canon in this way isn't going to do anything but muck things up. It's not going to "remove it from the pedestal" and it's certainly not going to stop bad writers from trying to copy its beats without understanding what made them work in the first place. It's just going to be shoehorning a story into a canon where it doesn't fit.
>>82976282
We're all forgetting the most important thing of all.
They're gonna censor Dr. Manhattan's dick, aren't they?
>>82985503
Nice, 4/10. The trash line was bit too muc though.
>>82985406
How many DC comics did you read Disneyfriend?
Dr. Manhattan vs. Empty Hand when?!
>>82985507
It was already there. Rebirth is the death and burial of Watchmen.
We are all (rightfully) celebrating the death of the worst thing to happen to comics in 40 years.
Manhattan isn't even strong enough to do this, unless they're using the Pax's Captain Atom
>>82985566
This shitty story is about to grant the Empty Hand victory once and for all.
>>82985566
>Implying Johns will acknowledge Morrison's cosmology in any way
>>82985583
it's pretty easy to say 'while exploring the multiverse, he got stronger'
>>82985600
Explain yourself, Mouseketeer.
>>82976831
>great bit of metacommentary.
Ah, no wonder the spoilers sounded fucking ridiculous... Metacommentary always sounds awful in spoiler text
>>82985509
>They're gonna censor Dr. Manhattan's dick, aren't they?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>82985566
Description makes Dr Manhattan sound more like Mr Mind than Empty Hand.
DC is finished.
>>82985649
>if you hate this shitty development or geoff johns (who I don't hate, but he hasn't written a good story for seven years) you must be from /tv/
OK, I'll bite.
The empty hand is a metaphor for putting down the comic, see? And because this comic is so goddamn fucking retarded people will put down DC comics and stop reading them, see? So that explains it!
Johns has been responsible for both bringing Hal Jordan up as "the greatest lantern" and for ressurecting Barry Allen and just assigning him all of Wally's villains because those are the characters that he likes, see? He's also in charge of DC creative, so the decisions that make the new DC and the current situation are his fault, see?
And Watchmen in a critically acclaimed graphic novel that has never been a part of mainstream DC and adding that to the main continuity is a completely unnecessary clusterfuck. So do you get it, you obtuse fuck?
>>82985748
>The empty hand is a metaphor for putting down the comic, see?
No it isn't /tv/. Seems like you misread a post you saw from another thread. Try better next time.
>>82985767
Then what is it, idiot?
DC kills Watchmen just by bringing it down to DCs level.
Amazing.

Wow, are you a mod? That's weird, because if you are you should know that I've never even posted on /tv/.

>>82985748
>bringing Hal Jordan up as "the greatest lantern"
I don't see the problem

Such as? And what's wrong with bringing back Barry?

More like:

>Maiden = Batman Readers
>Dragon = Other Properties

>People at Castle = Movie Fags

Sometimes it's really surprising to see how coordinated the Disney shock troops are. I was wondering how they'd spin this one.
>>82985856
>four seconds apart
>samefag

>>82985856
Try again /tv/. I want to hear your interpretation of something else. What do you think Seaguy is about?
>>82985897
I think it's funny the exact same st george image with the same filename appeared in multiple threads at this same time to shit post.
Probably just one shitter not some legion of shills though.
>>82985835
It's stood on its own feet from the day it was published. They're dropping it into a quagmire and then handing the reigns to some clown.
Before Watchmen was dumb enough without John meeting Batman.
>>82985885
That doesn't make any sense at all retard.
>>82985919
>watchmen
>stood on its own feet
confirmed for knowing nothing about comics
>>82985897
>Watchmen, a book considered by anyone with even a passing familiarity witch comics to be the root of most major issues with comics today

Help me, /co/, I can't tell who's serious and who's baiting anymore
>>82976282
Gee Batman, how comeDC lets you have THREE jokers?

>>82976282
This sounds fucking stupid.
I'm just not going to read anything related to rebirth.
this just makes Bruce look worse..the man is the "world's greatest detective..talking about the whole 3 jokers nonsense
If the New 52 and pre-Flashpoint are the same Universe, why are there two separate Superman from both continuities?
How in the hell does that make any sense?
>>82986278
It makes sense if you read Convergence and the Lois and Clark miniseries that's been going on the past five or so months.
>>82985350
Wait is he really back? Do we have an actual confirmation?
>>82985748
>you will never be this wrong about something
I wonder how much time has elapsed. Damian's 13. Teen Titans here he comes.
>>82985248

How they fuck are barry and kid flash here ?
Did they just teleported in the main universe or were they hidding the whole new 52 time ?
>>82979992
ooh, wizard battle!
http://www.bleedingcool.com/2016/05/21/now-newsarama-and-ign-report-dc-universe-rebirth-1-spoilers-warning-contains-spoilers/
Damian Wayne is now officially 13 .
Pre-52 version sups.
>>82986598
Barrys always been there?
They havent explained how Wally gets there yet
Why is Watchmen getting the blame? Isn't the authors who were inspired by that comic's edge be the ones at fault?
>>82986642
Nah. Fans.
Wouldn't it be great if Phantom Stranger and The Question reconvened as the Duo of Sin?
Because, honestly, JMD got both somewhat okay.
Even Question, for what he was.
according to other spoilers, someone – or something – stole ten years from the history of the DC Universe.
So the KF suit may be a consequence of this
Anyway, since Wally is obviously an adult, I doubt he will go by “Kid Flash”.
Especially with that other Kid Flash running around (you know, the other Wally West)
the Joker Yeah, it makes Batman seem kind of... dumb, for not realizing that they're all different people
>>82986674
They should out him in the Walter West suit
Great. Does this mean I have to read Before Watchmen now?
>>82986653
I really liked that Trinity of Sin mini he did, shame about the art. But he made me love both Judas Stranger and The Question? Especially Stranger, what a delightful series that was.
>>82986752
I should do the Phantom Stranger soon.
Maybe wednesday when all of this is going down.
And The Question was made entertaining with just a few key strokes. Some inner character work and fun dickish moments.
>>82986770
You should, it's a criminally underrated series. Sad Blanco isn't doing anything, he killed it on Phantom Stranger. His chemistry with JMD was unbelievable.
>>82986787
I think all of the artists on Phantom Stranger brought something to the table.
Tan had those horror grooves, Ha had those gothic tones, and Blanco...he nailed the mix and the noir of it all.
I'm totally lost on this since my only exposure to comics is the random storytimes that happen here
Is DC seriously implying that Manhattan is stronger than Darkseid and Anti-Monitor?
2 page spread of all the DC heroes charging at Dr. Manhattan when?
>>82986815
I feel like Blanco had them all. Tan was very good, Ha did a few issues and they looked great but Blanco just nailed everything. He especially did a great job on expressions and showing a wide range of emotions.
>>82986501
He's already black, AND has to deal with the stigma of being a water based hero. Isn't that enough?
>>82986900
Exactly.
Especially the later issues with Blight and the Crack in Creation.
>>82976790
>But Future Evil was brilliant
>>82986903
Afraid he'll drown, cartoonfag?
>>82986908
Oh yeah, the part where Stranger is angry with Phil and lets the ghosts consume him and then takes pity upon him is such a powerful sequence that works both because of JMD's masterful wording, but especially because of Blanco.
>>82986936
I love that sequence where Blight possesses that resurrected teenager and even when that teen becomes The Redeemer.
It all works.
I forget, who did the Future's End issue?
I don't think it was Blanco.
So is /co/ full of queers or what? /tv/ told me to come here to discuss capeshit, and it just seems like /lgbt/'s drainage ditch. Midnighter and Grayson are cool though, I don't judge.
>>82980518

I just had a horrifying thought, what if Nu 52 Questionis Rorschach.
>>82986990
STOP RAPING MY CHILDHOOD!
>>82986951
I forget but it wasn't very good looking.
I also loved the sequence when Trigon's son puts on Stanger's necklace. It would've been easy to come off as cheesy, but Blanco makes it a powerful scene.
>>82986978

>>82987212
No. Turns out her box was just a thing that let the Crime Syndicate in.
>>82987212
There was some bullshit in her ongoing.
It can be summed up thusly.
The seven sins were actually alternate universe versions of her that kept making the same mistakes and getting trapped in Pandora's Box.
Then in JLD she upgrades to Angel mode.
Now she's dead.

All it comes down to is how good the writing is going to be. It can be salvaged.

People think there is actually a hidden context, that the Nu52 was actually Watchmen's fault or some retarded shit like that...Nu52 was lame, we know that, but Johns was also one of the creative forces behind that, so fuck you Johns, it's your fault too.

B-b-but muh cereal king

>>82987346
>le cereal king caused New52 meme
New52 was forced by Didio and Lee. They took an arc from his Flash ongoing and forced it into New52.
My money's actually on Conner Kent being used as a placeholder New 52 Superman by the Time Trapper to keep history together since Superman was unavailable or something similar. So then the guy we've been following for 5 years would have been Conner Kent fused to Superman's life somehow to hold history together until things could be repaired.

the saddest, creepiest birthday party scene ever, I mean, he what? Bought that cake himself so he could sit alone in the dark and eat while grinning like a psycho while holding a big knife?

Lee really should slake his thirst for redesigns with totally-not-Exiles book.

I like the sound of this. I've been waiting for an opportunity to get back into DC and this could be it.
Fuck the people who don't like Watchmen being incorporated with canon, this is the best possible way to do it.
first time posting on /co/ and im not into comics.
this is the most retarded thing i've ever seen, how do you people put up with such dribble?
>>82987504
Stockholm syndrome
>>82987504
This is nothing compared to a lot of stupid things that the BIG 2 have done,believe me it's not THAT retarded.
>>82987534
why do you stick around and keep reading them then if theres been worse? why not jump ship like a sane person?
>>82987528
This.
Our current relationship with comics it's like an abusive relationship we want to get away but we always comeback and pay 5 bucks for some shitty 19 pages comic book
>>82987570
>when you have wasted too much time following them and don't have the courage of letting go
>>82987504
>im not into comics.
Then youre a retard for falling into the linde of thinking that Watchmen is some holy grail and you only think that because people told you
Congrats

How long until this gets retconned?
>>82976282
What issue/book is this?
>>82987601
i never said anything about watchmen being some sort of holy grail, where you pull that from?
i asked how can you lot read such literal asspulling nonsense... but fromr eading your comment it looks like asspulling suits you just fine
>>82987613
REBIRTH, it's out this wednesday.
>>82987646
Right on, thanks man.
>>82987570
I've stopped buying monthly comics almost 2 years ago
I still check out some current runs, but only pirating them, if i buy anything it's because i either already know the story or because it's a full book
I'm not american tho, so it's not like my actions impact the industry
But basically this >>82987604. Why would people buy a Spiderman comic after OMD? Why would people buy anything after unecessary reboot #14391? Because we have to know how it goes and if it's worth it. It's like buying a dozen of demos to try understand if you like a videogame or not, by the time you want to stop trying demos you've already beaten half the game. It's a weird industry
I don't get it. Are they trying to make it look like they're a soulless corporation that doesn't understand stories it owns?
>>82987601
its not a Holy Grail but its a fucking classic and one of better works of cape comics, and arguing that is always interesting but overally pointless. I know internet demands things being either perfect or shit buttry to consider that there are classics that are great, not perfect but great and maybe shitting on them for a quick buck is just plain wrong.
God knows Lucifer wasn't a perfect series, but it was really good and watching the tv show take a dump on it was just sad. Same here.
>>82987392
That would explain his fondness for logo t-shirts.
>>82987853
B-but anon, it can work as metacommentary! I'm sure this is a 100% creative decision that has nothing to do with corporation! It's not like they ever tried to whore out Watchmen or anything before...
>>82987864
>maybe shitting on them for a quick buck is just plain wrong.
But Rebirth was never advertised as being a Watchmen continuation so it avoided that
>>82987912
A twist doesn't need advertisement to sell
Did Disney promote Solo's death for Episode VII?
>>82986961
/co/ is really gay, yes
>>82976282
>No matter how good the rebirth books are , people will shit on DC regardless because of this.
I know it would be the same story framework he's written tons of times before, but Morrison would have been a better choice to pull this off. Johns isnt good with the cosmology side of DC , as Darkseid War shows.
>>82987981
And the SJWs complain that comic fans and comics themselves unduly sexualise women. That Shortstacked comic about drawing sexualised males - you know the one - always makes me laugh given the massive popularity of JoJo.
>>82986465
I would legit love a "friendly" rivalry with Uncle Sam in order to stop nazi bad guys.

>So, impossible
The Dark Knight Strikes Again Question is a ginger, he is also probably Jimmy Olsen but they might pull a fast one.
Man this whole thing has made me realize this place is one giant Geoff johns cocksucking festival.
>>82988237
There's another Question in the Suicide Squad who has Rorschach's mannerisms and anti-communist views.
It might be him.
>>82985406
Johns wasn't the one behind the idea of New52 being a reboot. Just look at his Green Lantern, that mostly tried to keep continuity with his run.
>>82988377
The first 12 issues mostly outright ignore the New 52.
What a time that was.
>edgemaster cuts off his face and breaks a police departments necks
>is immortal
>oh noes I know who joker is
>now it's three jokers
"Nom nom nom! Just keep feeding me the shit dc. I love every story involving joker needing some fucking event gimmick."
Wow I never thought I'd agree with the people who want the joker dead But fuck if I don't get it now. Every time he's in a story it's gotta be some bullshit big thing. Can't just be a fucking story with the joker.
What next jokers an alien. Jokers batman from the future. Jokers a superecolved midget sasquatch. It turns out jokers been a ghost this whole time!
>Three Jokers
What is the sauce on this?
