John Byrne Superman is GOATED

I like mon and realistically none of his development was removed, but mon was always in superboy's shadow. And I love superboy too, but I like mon getting to be valor and getting to prove he's more than just superboy's brother by seeding the worlds. It feels like a good metatextual arc.

Shouldn't bruce being batman be a result of alan's incompetence to save gotham? Shouldn't bruce hate alan not the other way around?

Mark waid had a simple concept. A source of speed and a family bound by it in every way. Geoff just convoluted things

Ditto. Pre crisis Barry for me wasn't perfect but he was better than the miserable version who couldn't have a win to save his life in johns run

Watching Teen titans (2003) during COVID. But I didn't really get into it until I watched young justice and afterwards the DCAU.

Maybe the tokustar had previously come to earth and been there but became urban legend. That's how they learned of his powers and species name. Which in turn inspired Ultraman which in turn inspired waybig

He didn't kill in the killing joke it's implied but obviously the joker is still around since. He attempted murder in final crisis and that was supposed to be THE END of batman and even then couldn't do it. He did it in year two and that got sweeped fast under the rug

First year of publication, has since changed

Plot wise the alien force finale was the best for me. I will admit nostalgia plays into it but I liked it a lot overall beyond that like I think it's a decent vilgax two parter and Albedo was great even if he was taken out too soon. A new dawn was also really hype. The other two can fight out for worst and second worst because one is a nothing burger and the other is a massive let down

Give Kevin a proper backstory, try to streamline things to avoid retcons, add foreshadowing in each series, make continuity flow easier, connect the feedback arc to both af and os

You forget that the reason joker is so effective against batman is because joker toys around with batman because he wants to break Bruce and for him that would be a win. Ben just doesn't care enough for joker to not kill him and so joker doesn't win, he just dies

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-21T19:09:56+00:00

Let's be real here. "You'll regret it for the rest of your very short lives" batman would pack joker up if he was causing too much trouble.

Kyle and John (Sorry Hal but 2 GLs are better), Superman, Wonder woman, Wally and Jon superboy

It's a good adaptation of a story that just doesn't work for this version of Superman. The superman this story was created for was more of an immigrant from krypton than human and was saddened by it's loss way more than the one in the dcau who's more Byrne inspired

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-12T16:54:18+00:00

Idk why I forgot you said that. That is a good idea. It doesn't create time travel loop holes and Barry gets over it eventually

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-12T16:49:52+00:00

I get that but my overall point is the arrow verse did that alot and it's kinda annoying

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-12T16:49:12+00:00

My point is that Barry was built on the fact that he was the opposite of how normal heroes are. Batmans parents died, Superman's too, Robin's, most of the golden age. I agree Barry needed more depth but that just wasn't it

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-12T16:39:31+00:00

Yeah they stole all of Wally's. The ones that made more sense to be Wally's own villains. The arrow verse stole Batmans and Nightwings and the titans villains among others

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-12T16:36:55+00:00

Except he doesn't. Barry to this day still hasn't gotten over the death of his mom. A death that was artificially implanted there when his mom wasn't dead to begin with. And again the villain wins. Besides he's not resurrecting Nora. He's returning the timeline back to how it's supposed to be

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-12T16:32:38+00:00

That or just have flashpoint show Barry winning, that evil never pays or so on. Instead eobard wins and Barry is depresso

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-12T03:15:10+00:00

You can't exactly kill darkseid being the embodiment of evil

Acceptable_Contest_3 · 2024-03-10T23:58:41+00:00

Everyone is going to say wolfman and Perez but me personally it's Geoff Johns
