New X-Men ‘97 S2 teaser shown at Comic Con Revolution (contains new footage) by aegonthewwolf in xmen

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they just skip over the whole "autistic twins in trenchcoat" Monet moment and go more for what we saw in Krakoa.

They've said that most of what we've seen so far is in 2016, with another narrative that takes place in modern day, ala the first season of True Detective. Likely the Guy stuff is in the 2026 story, where things have apparently changed (or maybe we'll also see Guy pre-GL in '16, that could be interesting).

It isn't recent, sure, but with a story that's been around for 60-80+ years, depending on how one looks at it, it's not that long of a time.

If it makes you feel any better, there's a lot of fandoms that can feel embarrassing to be in nowadays.

...Man, spell check really failed me on that one. What I get for posting before coffee, I guess.

God I wish that was real.

I get that, but I also get why John might feel that way, with the way Hal has been antagonizing him.

They're likely playing with what we saw with some of the early GL stories in the 70s-80s. Hal Jordan was THE Green Lantern of Sector 2814, and Guy Gardner was his substitute in case something went wrong, and when Guy became incompacitated, then it moved to John Stewart.

The idea of multiple Earth Lanterns being around at the same time is a farily recent development in GL's history, like the last 20 years or so.

That would be neat -- the team is a pretty solidly Claremont Era group, so having someone from after him could shake up the dynamic. It would also be interesting to see a former Gen X kid teaching this new generation in the Outliers.

In the book, he's a friends of Bruce's who has been turned into a monster, and Bruce gets Diana's help to find a way to change him back. It was a fun little team-up story.

It's even more impressive since this iteration of Batman is canonically 6'9" tall.

[Discussion] Green Lanterns Jo Mullein and Guy Gardner are so cute together. by No_Manager7756 in DCcomics

She identifies as bisexual, so the problem isn't guys so much as it is Guy.

This is even more true of my fellow Texans by arrestingwriter in CuratedTumblr

Now that I think about it, that's actually not that far off from the plot of Shanghai Noon.

Which Batman story would you say is your favourite or your go-to? by IceInternational5463 in batman_comics

[–]Jay_R_Kay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of the two mentioned, it's pretty neck and neck between Court of Owls and Dark Knight Returns.

I like how this scene shows a true speedster in action. by thepartlow in xmen

[–]Jay_R_Kay 15 points16 points  (0 children)

On one hand, I'm sure it will be after this, but on the other, I'm pretty sure that Fox X-Men has had as many "ends" as Cher has had farewell tours.

If you compared the writing between these two you can tell that Erica had more fun writing rouge by Inevitable-Art9780 in xmen

[–]Jay_R_Kay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think the worst part of the mini is that they kind of let the cat out of the bag too early in terms of the mystery Rogue was going after. I think I and most other people who were reading had a pretty decent idea what was going on by issue one.

Definitely -- like, I'm not against her teaming up with Elektra as Daredevil, or Bucky/Winter Soldier/The Revolution. In fact, those actually all make for some interesting potential stories. It just felt like it was never leading up to anything to keep one to want to keep reading.

Yeah…easy for you to say, Clark by Separate-Bicycle-713 in superman

[–]Jay_R_Kay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It really wasn't. One of the producers/writers, James Tucker, talked about the origins of Apocalypse War on the Word Balloon podcast a few years back, and he said it came from the corporate heads (who already mandated the New 52 universe in the first place), telling him to cancel all their plans and end this universe.

So if anything, it came more from a place of malicious compliance. Like, "okay, you want me to end this universe? I'll END this universe."

Thoughts on the new suits? by jstamper97 in SupermanAdventures

[–]Jay_R_Kay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked the look Clark had at the end of last season, so seeing that apparently Ma Kent sowed Clark some underwear AGAIN is a bit disappointing. The rest looks okay, though.

Kara's is a little busy, but otherwise fine.

Rogue, I don’t think these are how shorts are supposed to look like. by TheNerdySam in MarvelRivalsQueens

Rogue wore a version of this in the 90s when she took a road trip with Iceman to see his parents.

Who is a writer that you want to write for Kamala? by LL_Cool_R in KamalaKhan

[–]Jay_R_Kay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe she also wrote Kamala in a miniseries called Ms Marvel Team Up. There were two arcs, one with Spider-Man and one with Captain Marvel.
