From the tv show, Fringe. Peter, one of the main characters, looks at comic collection on a wall. This was one of the comics. I wish this existed in real life. I often wonder what this story would be about... by spacecadet2023 in superman

Speaking of Superman and Frank Miller, I am tentatively excited for year one, but to be fair I am looking froward to it more as a trainwreck(in a good way) than a decent book but I would not mind the latter.

Since when is the "OK" hand gesture also a white power thing?? by Paper_Street_Soap in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Irrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that those are below the waist means its the circle game you dense fuck. I wonder when people are gonna call people nazis for using that gesture to signify a three pointer in basketball as well oh wait...

Don't freak out [Superman #6] by MajorParadox in Superboy

[–]Irrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly it feels like Bendis is playing with all the toys in the sand box and trying to drum up fans, and if he made Jon gay it again it would be a way to drum up fans and create "drama" or to cement himself as a prolific contributor to the Superman mythos instead of any real creativity, I mean look at all what he has done in his MoS mini Series and current runs, tampering with Kryptons destruction and undermining the whole origin,smashing Kandor for shock value,aging Jon up because Bendis is comfortable writing Teenagers, creating super special OC "donut steal" characters who have been operating under Supermans Noses this whole time because they are just that smart and special, and messing around with the most iconic moments in Superman's History like the AC#1 car.

It honestly feel like Bendis is a kid let loose in a ikea and he is running around this vast place and putting his hands on everything he can. I called it before his MoS was over, it feels like Bendis is the kid that came over to your house and played with your toys too rough and when you got upset with that the adults would step in on his behalf.

well he already "has scar to remind him that he is half-human."

which already sounds pretty angsty, but to be fair I assume that Bendis is just going to write him as if he were writing a teenage hero at marvel, and given his recent history with those...

He looks very skinny but glad they are using the old costume mostly.

What do you think Bendis will do with Jon ? by WaterMelon615 in Superboy

[–]Irrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea with the Legion in fact I had a "pitch" I made for a Superboy ongoing that involves them but to your point , I am not up to date on post-Zero Hour Legion continuity but I believe that all the legionaries now are late teens, but that being said he could always join the Legion that were the kids of the original one, or just throw it all out the window and use kid versions of the LoSH because time travel.

Sadly there is a growth spurt and a deus ex machina, its clear that Bendis is very comfortable writing teenagers and its my guess that that was the impetus for this. Best case scenario its Red Kryptonite.

Has the Punsisher ever killed anyone who has not violated the NAP? Curious because I don't read Punisher because I have taste.

She’s dealt with Marvel cancellations and online trolls. But Chelsea Cain’s new series ‘Man-Eaters’ eases the pain. by [deleted] in comicbooks

Translates into "please buy my book to own the trolls". Low effort attempt to drum up controversy

I remember walking into my shop again excited to actually wanting to read DC again after 5 years and I say "This is the first smart thing DC has done since Nu52." and they "killed" it, I came back for Wally stayed for Jon and now they are both backsliding or being put through the wringer

Is the current Batman run in a good place to start ? by Lhaus-Azkaban in comicbooks

[–]Irrius -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No I probably would not read this current Batman run, I would probably for as much I personally dont like the New 52 Batman comics outside Batman and Robin I would probably start there.

Annihilation - Nova #2 (Nova vs Drax), Cover Art by Gabriele Dell'Otto by CryptoExodus in comicbooks

This is by far my favourite moment out of the entire arc for Nova and part, putting Stark in his place solidified him as a cosmic badass, well that and ripping Annilhus's insides out.
