Teenage Fansub posted:That's right. Miles was left saying he probably wouldn't be calling himself Spider-Man in the future and now there's a new MM:SM comic preserving the status quo. It seems like this one was a Marvel thing because there were a bunch of rumors they were making Miles change his hero name so there would only be one Spider-Man. I'm guessing Spider-Verse helped stop that.

Nessus posted:I mean to be fair to Rorschach he just saw Dr. Manhattan get dissolved on the subatomic level and come back twenty seconds later. Dude knew there was no point in throwing a punch. He was basically doing all he could do at that point, which is to throw the truth of what Jon was doing in his face. I always interpreted it as his black and white world view being completely shattered. Yes he knows he can't win against Manhattan, but he also knows that a situation as complex as the one he's in just doesn't work with how he views the world. He knows that he's going to get killed, if not by Manhattan by Ozy, and chooses to go out as close to his own terms as he can get: with a futile symbolic gesture of resistance.

MonsterEnvy posted:Ozy had no intention of killing Rorschach. He even states it's fine to let him go, cause very few will believe him if he even makes it back to civilization from the ice fields. Is there that much of a distinction between killing someone and letting them wander off in the artic with no transportation wearing only street clothes as a trench coat?

Arkhams Razor posted:That's a confusing comparison, given that Morrison's B&R run began with him going off Batman. It's true that he put out The Return of Bruce Wayne during the end of the run, as well as #700 and a couple of RIP Epilogue issues around the same time, but for the most part it he was just doing one book a month. King is also only going to be doing one book a month.

Thranguy posted:I mean, Superman wanting to enlist (and being thwarted by secret identify issues) goes back all the way to the roots, with 'why the heck wasn't Clark ever in the military' being a question that needed some kind of answer for decades. No it isn't. The reason is simple. He didn't join the military because he's a good person.

Archyduchess posted:What on earth are you talking about? I think Superman being in the military is an appalling notion, but it factually was a going concern within the books, notably during WWII. Here is the most often cited example, from 1943's Superman #25. It's not 1943. It's 2019. Superman would not have been alive during the draft currently. There is absolutely no reason to address this in 2019 unless you are writing a period piece. And even then you don't actually need to because the answer is "it's a comic book." What the gently caress are you even talking about?

# ¿ Jun 18, 2019 02:38 |
Needed, past tense. In 2019 it does not need an answer, unless they are writing a period piece. Which they are not. So again, what does "why didn't Superman join the army and fight in WW2" need an answer in 2019, when in 2019 the character was probably born in the 80's or maybe even 90's, long after WW2 and well outside of the draft?

This is 100% true though. Terrorism is just a tactic, it’s not inherently good or evil in and of itself.

chaosapiant posted:I haven't watched the show or even really followed up on it since the first preview looked corny, but why in the gently caress is Jorah Mormont Bruce Wayne? He has a straight up English accent and he's blonde. How does that work? He should be Alfred. Wigs and dialogue coaches exist. This is going to blow your mind but did you know Tom Holland also has a British accent but Spider-Man in the movies is still from New York?

I've been scrubbing through all of the creatives who still have ongoing releases going into October, and so far I haven't seen anyone tweet about being let go. I hope they all make it through. It seems like the layoffs were more focused on leadership and then side things, like DCU and DC Direct. Haven't heard anything of anyone on the creative side getting the axe.

I think it works better disconnected from everything else. Then if people like it, they can plug it in wherever it fits and say it's canon. And if people don't, they can just keep it as a trade of an "important" story that isn't in continuity.

Barry Convex posted:I suppose, but (a) it's simply not that good thus far, and (b) trying to position it as a self-contained story doesn't work as well when so much of it is explicitly founded on preexisting continuity. which also largely applies to Doomsday Clock, not coincidentally The only big things you need to know are his history with Jason and Barbara. They spell everything else out so that someone even casually familiar could grasp it.

Mandibular Fiasco posted:I'm reading the JLI Omnibus (Volume 1) and skipped ahead to one of my favourite JLE issues from when I was a kid. The JLE and Injustice League end up in the same night school French class. Anyway, its about as absurd as you can imagine, but still so stupidly funny. It's kind of a stretch to call it a superhero comic, but Sex Criminals is very, very funny. Not in that same way though. It's also less common to see comedy issues show up in otherwise "serious" books, but there's some good comedy stuff from the big 2 as well. Amanda Conner's run on Harley Quinn was pretty good. Squirrel Girl over at Marvel was great.
