DC Comics Thread

@darksoul- Ah I see, sorry for the misunderstanding, let us resolve this over vast quantities of mead!

How many limited series are there for the Final Crisis aftermath? 6? 7? It’s hard to keep up with them. There’s Run, Jump, Escape, Eat, Drink, Sleep. Probably some others that I’m forgetting about.

Ink, Dance, Run & Escape are the only ones I think.

That’s 4 titles with 6 issues each which adds up to 24 separate comics. For the Aftermath mind you. By my count there were 25 separate comics for the entire Final Crisis story. Wow. DC sure knows how to beat a dead horse.

And people will buy all 25 of them like crazy and justify such an insane and asinine marketing strategy. The vicious circle continues and will never die.

If they come out with 25 this time and they buy them all up, then next time it’ll be 30. And then 50 next time. And then they won’t even need to wait six months between each crossover, they’ll just roll crossover into crossover into crossover, with four different shitty 52-like series going on concurrently, DC will be rich and will keep doing it, and meanwhile people will wonder why nothing good ever comes out any more.

Or they can let Geoff write everything, and everybody wins

I only like half of what Geoff writes.

he’s ruining the Flash, and he fucked up the Titans.

what about legion of 3 worlds?

it’s good, but it’s only there to fix the last three years of mistakes that HE made.

he didn’t kill bart

yeah he did.

the REAL Bart died when Deathstroke kneecapped him.

Johns’ Teen Titans was great, dunno about the Flash though, but I really liked Rogue Wars.

Don’t know about Titans
but are you talking about Rebirth or his Wally West run? cause his run with Wally was great

talking about Rebirth.

or “let’s just throw flashes at the problem until it fixes itself”, never once realizing that that’s the fucking problem.

Flash is great when it has a great writer, the problem is, it hasn’t had one in a while.

I don’t want to judge Rebirth yet beacuse only 2 issues are out

I’ll judge it.

nobody NEEDED Barry Back. Wally is fine as the Flash.

Barry was better as a symbol.

I’m waiting for the story to pick up, but I did not see the ending of the 2nd issue of rebirth coming. You still don’t like it after that?

I’m a Johns fanboy. I actually loved his Teen Titans run, and its a big reason I’m still reading that book (even though he’s off it now). I didn’t even like Kid Flash until he got kneecapped. But if you’re an Impulse fan, I can see where you’re coming from.

I’m a Bart fan.

I like the bad with the good, but yeah, I like Impulse a little more.

I agree…I liked Impulse more than Kid Flash, but I still rooted for Bart alltogether.

The way DC killed bart was just dumb IMO…infact, DC has done alot of dumb “deaths” lately.

Let’s not turn this to a ‘Deaths in comics’ discussion of sorts for the next few pages please :sweat:

Say anyone here care to mention some good DC comics of the 80s besides the JL series?
