DC Comics Thread

Good find Chairhome, I’d pick it up if only for the GL information. I’m assuming Superman-Prime is Superboy-Prime in the future? I can’t imagine him as a teen, can you imagine what hormones would do to the boy? Madness…

Anybody picking up Titans (the one about the old titans)? It drops today, right? I’m thinking about picking it up when I stop by the store tomorrow…

WHAT!!! THAT COMES OUT TODAY???

(checks release list)

FUCK YES IM THERE!!!

Well, her dad can pretty much tell what attack is coming from their motions(due to the experiment he had), so maybe a large part of that is genetic. I don’t know if she’s a precog…would be pretty cool though.

The new Titans series? Why’s everyone so gung ho? To quote Sam Cassell, “Ho ho hold up!” This is Judd Winick, ain’t it?

IT’S A TRAP

:rofl:

A lot of Teen Titans fans were just really waiting for the old team to get back together and kick some ass, so we’re just hoping it turns out for the best.

Honestly, I didn’t mind the Outsiders at the least, and Arrow/Canary has been pretty solid so far(at least until the last page of last months issue…Don’t know WTF he pulled with that.) Maybe he’ll do the team justice…but yeah, I’ll be looking out for Jason Todd’s shadow when I read it.

Passing on Titans. I can’t read about Judd Winick messing up Nightwing and Starfire… I just can’t…

He’s gonna write about all of them having ages old issues, lots of infighting and not getting along. You know, like some reality show that Winick was on… Real World LOL! That’s what he does and I’m not sitting through that with classic Titans.

Thank goodness for Tomasi on Nightwing. Just have Starfire show up there and I’ll be good. :pray:

Oh snap first terrible review of Titans #1 man too good. :rofl:

We should start another pool: which Titans member will have an AIDS-related life-changing experience?

One of them is going to reveal they are gay, bank on it. They will probably have AIDS too.

Maybe Flash will get SUPER FAST AIDS.

Yeah, I just read the newsarama review of Titans and it was not very favorable. :-/

I was just excited to see the old characters, like ShinkuuR said. Might have to pass… or might have to try a few issues. I’m dirty.

Nightwing! JW will bring Dick Grayson getting raped in jail back into continuity! :looney:

Well, at least I tell myself that Superboy Prime knocking out reality made it so that never happened. Work with me here… :sweat:

It’s gonna be Gar. Winick is gonna say he came down with some rare African playtpus aids or some shit.

So I picked it up and…sadly the review that Skrull-Sano posted was spot on. Damn it. Where are Wolfman and Perez when you need them?

I’ll pick up a couple of more issues to see if it pulls itself out of the bullshit but it isn’t looking good right now. At least I’ll have Tiny Titans.

Tiny Titans 3 is out! :woot:

Anyone here any news on this event going on in Hell pretty soon? I saw the Demon dressed in medieval Armour and a few other familiar faces. Supposedly when Neron was killed the underworld was left without a ruler, so now various factions are warring for the place.

Personally this really intrigues me, I think it could be DC’s version of Annihilation done right.

Can anyone tell me what batman comic this image is from?

I think it might be from gotham knights, but I looked at all 74 issue covers and don’t see it.

Batman #619…it says so in the filename.
I think I bought both covers.

I know, just figured it out…lol thanks anyway :slight_smile:

She’s always had them.

Cool, I wasn’t aware. I guess they’re becoming more prominent now, then, because I haven’t seen them at all during this series.

Yeah, when she got fucked up before becoming ravager she developed them while in the hospital.

So, I was browsing through the DC Solicitations for July, and it has some spoilers and some thinly veiled spoilers… (more spoiler tags inside this spoiler tag). Some of the comments are speculation on my part.

DC in July

[details=Spoiler]

  • Someone dies:[spoiler=we don’t know who yet]
    FINAL CRISIS: REQUIEM
    A very special FINAL CRISIS one-shot honoring the passing of a great hero who?s been a staple in the DC Universe for years. All that remains is one final memory that the League experiences together as they must fulfill his last wishes or die trying![/details]

Batman

[details=Spoiler]

  • Catwoman and Hush return

  • Batman is missing, Robin takes up his mantle? Unless they meant figuratively.
    “The shocking conclusion that will start of the rest of Tim Drake?s life ? or is it the end? With Batman missing, Robin becomes the new Dark Knight. It?s Robin and Spoiler in an all-out brawl with Gotham City?s underworld ? but with Batman?s trail growing cold, the end of this fight will decide the future of the Bat family!”

And who is Spoiler now? I don’t think Stephanie is back (I haven’t been keeping up with Batman or Robin), but judging from this description from “Batman” in the July Solicitations, is it Damien?
"Robin and Damian team up ? yes, you read that right ? to search for the missing Batman."
Also in that issue:
“This incredible fourth chapter of ?Batman R.I.P.? ends with the surprising return of a character you never thought you?d see again!”[/details]

-Booster Gold #1,000,000
BG

[details=Spoiler]
"Meet the greatest time-traveling hero of the year
1,000,000 A.D. ? PETER PLATINUM! Lost in time, Booster Gold is confronted by a hero a million times more self-involved than himself. But if Booster does find his way back to the present, Batman will be waiting for him."
With no mention of Blue Beetle, I’m assuming that the story progresses with him being killed when he was supposed to.[/details]

  • Justice League of America
    JLA
Spoiler

Amazo takes over Red Tornado’s body again and Wonder Woman is the last one standing to stop him.[/details]

Batgirl is getting her own mini-series (6 issue) written by Adam Beechen… :-/

Reign in Hell starts…

Two-Face: Year One mini series (2 issues)
