Personally I feel they might give him a new hero alias but I’d like to hear all your theories!
It was advertised as the prestige format but this isnt that comic book. But i also cant find anything online that looks like this version either? Idk really what this is now lmao? Someone who does? :)
So I’ve begun reading more and more comics over the last month, I started at City of bane as my base board, then catching up with nightwingzc the rest of Batman (just started Chips run) and then moving into more bat family and greater dc-verse. It’s always been a Batman trope that’s he’s fiercely independent, pushers other away and overall somewhat unstable, you’d have to be, being a hero would do that to you In this world:
But with Tynions and Chips run, there’s been lots of internal monologues from Bruce about his sanity, his family, how he’s hurting and lost, it feels like this is constantly building up, like a beat that doesn’t drop. Will this actually go somewhere, will the Robins eventually sit him down and force him to deal with some of his shot, or is this pretty normally for Batman as a whole. As I said, I know he’s the dark knight, I’ve consumed all Batman media, the games, DCAU/movies, all the live actions. I know what his characters like But this seems like it’s building to something? I imagine the introduction of Zur with be important, I have an 8 hour trip today so will get myself caught up with Chips run!
I want to read “The long halloween” but I have watched the animated movie. Is everything spoiled for me? Is the comic any better than the movie?
Taxes included in price
Love this panel and the entire run that Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason did. Clark, Lois, and Jon all shined in this comic. They set everything up for Jon perfectly in this run.
What is joker up to in the current DC line ???
He was eventually revealed as Monarch, but I don’t think this was the original plan. Did anyone ever say who it was?
It’s pretty hard to google “Team Titans” and get the results I’m looking for.
A lot of people agree with this notion, but I am also surprised to learn just as many thing he does deserve to have his horrific turn around. To which ISAY BOULDERDASH! Everything we've seen him do, how far he's fallen, the deliberate moral event horizon that was Shazam's murder, and the fact his ending/s in Injustice 2 show that he's not just stopping with his Earth or his universe, but going for the MULTIVERSE pretty much says to me: "Superman is dead in every way but body". Even if he is more of an antithesis to the prime Superman, and still has that heroic sense of doing what's right, there is just no real way of redeeming him.
The blank lantern corps being the villain of a story and having Superman face off against those he's killed is a cool idea (I can even see Superman fighting a Black Lantern Shazam with two holes in his head where eyes should be), but I don't see that being able to "truly redeem" Superman, because at this point finding a way to redeem Injustice Superman is like trying to find a way to redeem Judge Holden.
If anything, I feel like a proper way for Injustice 3 (if it's made) to "redeem Superman" would be to have him basically pull a "Darth Vader" where he comes full circle and dies doing one last heroic action, even if his goal was still to advance/restore the regime. It won't make up for the damage he caused, but it would at least serve as a fitting way for him to go out without just sweeping everything he's done under the rug.
Heath ledger has always been my favorite joker. It is truly a travesty what happened to him, he was one of my favorites right up there with Steve Irwin. But his legacy lives on!
I bought a batman incorporated brick and I’ve read issues 0-1 and I’m on issue 2 but I got kind of confused on where the story is supposed to go so I want to know if it’s any good or if I should move onto my other comics
And since Dick Grayson is my favorite superhero I decided to get more acquainted with his comics history, but it kinda fanned out to include the entire Bat-verse, and to get that Dopamine hit I bought more comics than I ought’ve. I know I’m still missing a couple mainstays, namely Knightfall, but are there any other glaring omissions? Also, I’m trying to find the Omnibus Vol 2 and 3 for the Wolfman/Perez NTT but I just can’t afford what private sellers are charging
In the absolute universe every hero has a key part of their history removed or changed, so I thought the best thing to remove from the king of Atlantis was his Kingdom. In this universe Atlantis ended when it sank, but their people survived. They live in small communities in the sea, hidden from humanity. Atlaintians generally have more animalistic features than in the normal universe, and have a stronger connection with magic, but don't have much technology. Arthur curry was born from a lighthouse keeper and a Atlantian tribe chief, grown up on both land and ocean. This depiction of Aquaman don't use the iconic trident, instead he really more on pure strength, having a more beastlike fight style. For his design he looks more like a barbarian, wearing small pieces of armor made from shells and some hard animals parts, including the cranium of a polar bear on his shoulder (since is part of their culture to have a specific animal to represent you when you reach adulthood, he chose a polar bear since they can survive both on land and on sea, a thing most atlaintians cannot do, he killed the bear himself as part of the ritual to reach adulthood). He still has a long blonde hair, but he where's it on tied, has yellow eyes and sharp teeth.His powers include breathing both water and air, super strength, resistance, swim fast, limited water control, magic resistance and affinity, and talk to animals (not only sea animals now). His story would follow him trying to prevent a war between Atlantian tribes.
I’ve read the first 4 trades of Williamson and I don’t think I want to continue with 8 more trades. Thanks!
