DC Comics Thread

Dude GL is it’s own universe, I haven’t read any of that since Sinestro War and Blackest Night. I’ve kept some tabs on it but for the most part I am out of the loop.

So if you explain it a little better with dat spoilers tabs I can form an opinion on stuff. Lol.

I’ll have to cop the flashpoint trades…since it appears to be selling hotness.

They’ve made Arkham City comics?

@Geese: yeah it’s fun, just feels sort of pointless because of the September rebootaponanza.

@sensei: yes…up to issues 3 I believe.

Teach me how to spoiler tag and I’ll do it.

Seriously bro?

[S P O I L E R] Blah blah blah here [/ S P O I L E R]

Just don’t space it and don’t cap (Dunno if this one matters) and you are good.

war of gl recap

Spoiler

basically,krona controlled ALL the gl’s. jon killed Mogo; without his moral compass, rings were sent to people who aren’t “worthy”. Sinestro received a green ring, and teamed up with Hal to kill krona. The guardians expelled Hal, and SINESTRO is now the star of the new gl series.

eh

Spoiler

Sounds sort of…stupid, I mean why was Hal expelled, the hell did he do so wrong to get out of their favor? Just seems rather odd to me as an outside spectator to this. Still though, Sinestro as the new GL will be fun if it’s not a temporary change (Like 6 issues).

He was working with the main ring bearers of the other corps and that Is a big no no.

So what will “he” be doing now? I’m sure he’ll be around in some capacity with the ring since he’s on the JLA roster.

Heh I decided to see it after you convinced me. It makes a lot of sense if you read War of the GLs’ last part…which was kinda BS at the end

War of the GL finale

[details=Spoiler]Seriously Guardians? Hal helps save the Core AND THE UNIVERSE AND YOU DENOUNCE HIS GL STATUS?! CAN YOU BE ANY MORE RETARDED?!
If anything much of the shit that’s been happening was caused by the Guardians themselves, little bastards just don’t want to take responsibility[/details]

With the relaunch starting by August and September the other 2 GL books just have a short story featuring Gardner and John Stewart.

Flashpoint: Abin Sur #2 moved stuff along quickly and nicely IMO, let’s see how this’ll end. Oh and there is also FP: Hal Jordan, I do believe that these 2 minis will published together in one TPB.

Secret Six #35: Hmm if my calculations are correct…there were 2 SS minis before this ongoing (6 issues each). Add that to the current # of issues so far and we get 47…just 3 issues away from a 50th issue.
Really enjoyed it, though it kind of took them long enough to get the whole point of the story
Bane is badass

[details=Spoiler]Mainly Bane wanting to take down Batman’s associates! Including Robin (Damien) and Batgirl!
Bane does not fuck around, son[/details]

Superman 713: Well we’re finally reaching the end of JMS’ run, everything concludes next issue with Supes ending his trek~

Flashpoint: Frankenstein & the creatures of the unknown: I personally find that Frankenstein is a character that very few could ever write properly. Even though Morrison was the one who introduced him in a 4 issue mini, the way he presented him was great and made it easy to figure out the character. Plus he made him badass-

I find that he’s written OK in this mini but…I feel that Frankenstein should be used for extremly bizarre and complex stories.

1 & 2

Spoiler

Right so Frankenstein is woken up during WW2 and joins a band of monsters to help fight in WW2. However with WW2 over, him and the other monsters were put in stasis instead of being set free. Fast forward 60 years to after Cyborg and co. free FP Superman, where the gang escapes the compound and travel to Slaughter Swamp to decide on their next move. They are attacked there however, but are saved by…the Bride of Frankenstein.

Flashpoint: Citizen Cold #2
I thought it was a good issue

[details=Spoiler]Mirror Master frees the Rogues who kidnap Cold’s sister to get Cold to them. They eventually square off, with Cold being victorious, but Cold is brutally wounded and his sister was killed.
Last issue may deal with his identity being revealed to the public[/details]

A good week from DC for me IMO.

Man I really really really really REALLY despise what Johns has done to the Guardian’s yes we get it, people that are in charge are usually dicks.

Maybe he is using them as an analogy for DC Corporate. Then it’d make sense. But seriously those blue little bastards have to go, they’ve done nothing but fuck up everything themselves and shove blame somewhere else. It’s like a council of tiny Republican blueberries.

I really REALLY want to see someone put the Guardians in their place…

I haven’t posted in God knows how long but I saw the Sinestro face turn coming a long time ago after the Sinestro Corps War.

More on single Supes and his upcoming titles.

Looks like Morrison’s Action Comics will be a prequel story where his marital status will not matter. I think I’m sticking with that one.

I wonder about you Sano. You like Spidey/MJ, but one of the oldest superhero love flings isn’t your thing? I think you are racist against DC!

Sano prob. just prefers redheads~

Wait it isn’t painfully obvious I’m a Marvel fanboy? Really? Did I answer how the war of the Lanterns ended in my sleep or something to throw you off? :rofl:

Sarcasm as well, Sano isn’t as cuddly wuddly as I once perceived him.
