    Batman & Me

    Hey I hope this is okay to post here, I just made this video about Batman and how much he means to me and has meant to me throughout my life. I just wanted to share it with as many people as possible who also might love Batman.

    Please check it out if you have time or maybe even if you're just a little bored and don't have much else to do.

    Let me know what you think!

    Gods and what happens when they die

    So I don't think I've ever read a story abouts gods that have died, though I know about that one time with Darkseid. I am curious though, with the whole idea that Darkseid is just an avatar of the actual being from the realm of the Gods, would that mean that every god is an avatar (the physical forms you find on earth and such) and if they die/are destroyed they will just reform at some point?

    How does it work? Mostly wondering for current cannon but I'm not against learning about all of it.

    Can we stop posting digital screen grabs of comics before they can be purchased in stores?

    Every Wednesday, hours before the comics can be purchased in stores, people post images of pages from the Absolute line from digital subscriptions. They usually spoiler mark the images, but the captions have already been filled with spoilers too.

    Would it be possible to wait a reasonable amount of time? There is no need to post right away and potentially ruin or spoil comics for people.

    [Other] Who do you think are DC Comics' top 50 characters of 2024? I'll make them into gingerbread cookies like this set I made last December (& into early January). Source of pic is myself.

    Like the title says, who would you say were DC's top 50 characters who appeared in 2024's issues, including heroes, villains, & anti-heroes? If you can't think of 50, just list as close to that many as you can think of. The top 50 characters mentioned will most likely be who I decorate on gingerbread cookies, starting this Saturday.

    Superman Offspring

    No spoilers but I just watched the Series Finale of Superman & Lois & thought I'd ask a question for the Comic Pros.

    As Superman keeps having offspring & his offspring has offspring of their own, will the children ever develop powers like Superman or will their Human DNA overpower their Kryptonian DNA & eventually just fully Human.

    Like would Superman's 10× Great Grandkids have powers?

    Can someone Please just explain the order of The Batman Who Laughs?

    I want to learn about The Batman Who Laughs. I'm not a big DC Comics fan, so I guess maybe everything is always this confusing, but I am honestly mind-blowing that literally EVERY Single YouTube Video I have found that boasts itself as being: "The Batman Who Laughs Full Story Explained," and the video begins with THE BATMAN WHO LAUGHS ALREADY EXISTING!!!

    Sorry, but I just find it so annoying. I'm watching the video, waiting for it to flash back and show the origin of the character, but instead it starts talking about how the Joker infects Current Prime Universe Batman with the same laighing-gas that created The Batman Who Laughs.

    Like, am I insane? Why do you boast yourself as being the full story explained, if you're just going to plop me right in the middle of the story?

    Can someone please just tell me the comic that breaks down THE BEGINNING of The Batman Who Laughs, And then the comics that follow in chronological order?

    [DISCUSSION] Tom King's Batman Book One.. yeah..

    Everytime I looked into Tom King's run on Batman, I would end up on very divisive opinions, some liked it some hated it. When it comes to King's work, the ones I have read (Woman of Tomorrow, Up in the Sky, Mister Miracle, Wonder Woman, Gotham Year One) were all incredible. His Supergirl book is one of my favorite comic ever.

    But this ? This.. is a misfire. I don't even know how to fully describe what I didn't enjoy. Most of it, from the plotting to the dialogue, just felt... wrong ? There's some cool ideas thrown around, the "I am Bane" arc was alright, but the rest.. man, I don't know. Just didn't grab me at all. I cringed a lot at most of the dialogue ("I want to break your damn back !" Urgh.. the constant "Bat. Cat."). The character I feel he had the best handle on was Alfred.

    I don't think I'm gonna get the rest, unless it gets much better later on ?

    [Discussion]What villains would you like to see appear in Absolute Martian Manhunter, if any?

    Art Source: Character art of John Jones and the "Martian" by Javier Rodríguez.

    Premise of the Series: The series focuses on FBI agent John Jones as his body is taken over by an alien consciousness referred to as a "Martian", causing him to slowly go insane.

    VERY confused about death metal and infinite frontier

    So after death metal and infinite frontier, have new earth and prime earth combined? Meaning that the characters weren’t created again but its the same characters from before and their memories have been unlocked? Were characters new earth and prime earth counterparts combined? I tried looking on the wiki and it has new earth and prime earth characters as separate characters and im just very confused now. Thanks!

    The BatFam

    When it comes to the members of the Batfam—what time period / eras do you think fit each member the best? Like, which eras are each character’s ’golden era’?

    Thoughts about Batman: White Knight?

    Currently reading it due to these events: Suddenly got curious about Baby Doll's transition to comics if any > found some issues where she was in > Batman: White Knight was among them so started reading it.

    So it was okay... so far, I like the art. But then stuff that I took notice, there were two Harley and Joker never noticed so reaction was: hmmm... okay. Then the original Harley tried to save Jason Todd and the setting was pretty different from the usual depictions I guess? So what made me go, "wait up.. hold on a minute" was: suddenly, Jason Todd was the first Robin?

    So... Just wanna know what some of the people here think about it. Also I did hear/read somewhere there's a comic where Joker goes "super" sane and such and now am wondering this might be that comic.

    do the Alan Moore or Grant Morrison fans in this sub happen to believe in or practice magick as well?

    I was curious, because I’ve noticed that when people post jokes about them dueling Alan Moore or performing rituals, it’s not in a way that’s disrespectful to their beliefs.

    I mean, shit, after reading a lot of Morrison, I guess you’d have to suspend your disbelief for just long enough to realize why someone would practice?

    Alan Moore wrote in From Hell that "The one place Gods inarguably exist is in our minds where they are real beyond refute, in all their grandeur and monstrosity." the implication here is quite clear: Alan Moore recognizes that gods do not exist as literal invisible persons who influence the observable universe directly, but rather as the implementation of rules upon one's psychology in order to influence one's relationship with said universe. I think it should be clear, then, that the magick discussed in their work is not intended merely as fantasy fiction, but as a philosophical practice.
