Interpretations of superhero fiction like The Boys has never and will never be my cup of tea. I have no problem with a good deconstruction of superhero fiction and tropes, but stories like The Boys try to have it's cake and eat it. It wants to criticize the nature of superheroism but outside the env...

She kinda looks like Mera

I actually wouldn't mind that honestly. The problem is that for some reason they think they have to make it 'dark and gritty' for it to have a detective feel, Noir should have been the insperation.

Why must Selina be in this???? She won't contribute to the plot whatsoever.

It's the law, every new take on Batman on the big screen must have Catwoman in it.

Man, I just don't know....... I like it sure but I was hoping for more shadow work, you know, have Batman stand in the shadows more and make him seem more mysterious. I hate it when Batman is just out and about like that. But with that said it looks better than I thought it would. The Batmobile, the...

Almost got about Zod for a bit, but you're right Zod was great. Idk if the Joker character study count's in the most traditional sense though.

John's might just be the single greatest personification of all of DC's problems. His weird fanboy Silver Age obsessions with Barry and Hal really messed up the DC Universe and it's timeline. Add in his hate boner for Batman, which in of itself isn't a problem but he is such an bad writer he can't w...

I do think that there is a outward pessimism to Batman but at heart I do think he is optimistic. I would classify him as a realist who knows there will never be a end to his war on Crime but it still fights the war because it's the 'right' thing to do. But Rucka is indeed right for the most part. He...

I can't believe there gonna do it. DC is so empty at this point, of ideas and morals. This proposal was dumb back in it's day and it's just stupid now. DC needs a new generation of writers and editors to actually 'create' again. I'm sure Moore is just loving this, that old dirty wizard, i guess DC i...

I'm in a different boat where this interpretation of Wonder woman is concerned. I'm not a big fan of the first movie and I don't think I'll love this one either. I don't hate it or anything but in my mind's eye all I can see is how much better it could be. But with all that said the trailer was exac...

Lots of rid bits here and there. I'm very torn on the Justice League trailer though. It forces me to ask myself if I actually like "dark and gritty" superhero content. I think it has its place, Snyder's Watchmen was really good IMO and its ending was even better than Moore's IMO. But I guess I would...

Thanks but no thanks.

This isn't for me. Ever since I heard the rumors I had my doubts. This just looks like a modern day assassin's Creed game.

Plus no Batman.

I hope it's good and the animated universe it spawns is likewise good but this trailer doesn't really inspire me to jump for joy, it's good don't get me wrong but I'm not necessarily excited for another Superman origin.

I am curious what this universe's Batman and Wonder woman look like though.

Poison Ivy comes to mind also. She was one of the first Batman villain to appear as an antogonist in a Wonder woman book. A Wonder woman villain who could work also is Doctor Cyber. Her technically focus could prove a good fit. I could see a story focusing on Batman's sometime overeliance on his tec...

Is this really the start of a new universe? I saw it but I just thought it was just another standalone project.
I kinda like the animation style.
I could be fun let's see how it goes.

Next issue seem to be ramping things up. I hope Snyder doesn't over stretch, he does it from time to time and he tends to lose focus and the story just fizzle out, that's why his endings are never really good. The whole dark robins have always creeped me out give me a bad vibe. I just love that Dian...

So any predictions for the next issue? The story should official start next issue. The first issue was just for exposition to set the tone and atmosphere of the series.
As always the covers are fantastic.

Funny enough we have seen Bruce hit on Diana as Bruce Wayne before. Rucka wrote him biding for a date with her in his second run and he did it in the classic Brave and the Bold. https://www.amazonarchives.com/wp-content/uploads/brave-and-the-bold-volume-1-issue-87-page-4-500x749.jpg I like when we s...

Yep, Batman and Wonder woman aren't very hard to get. As long as you aren't dogmatically against the idea of the pairing or a bad writer you Should be fine.

Back on track; I'm definitely basing Owlman in my head off of the Crisis on two Earth's movie should a good movie and portrayal not just mediocre New 52 stuff. But you are right The Batman who laugh's does his job well but I just can't help but imagine a well written Owlman in his place. Regarding c...
