I think if DC had taken a page out of Marvel's book and relegated the New 52 stuff to another, alternate continuity meant to update existing characters that ran alongside the main books, remaining as they were, DC's continuity would be alot less of a mess right now.

As much as I like the two Batman: Earth One books that they put out (along with some Superman and Teen Titans books I didn't really like), that really should've been reserved for any attempt to solely attract new readers. Instead, they made things confusing for both new and old readers.


Which is why it'll be a very, very long time before I even open a New 52 book and anything that came afterward. If I ever do.

That is twice I have received that remark in the last three days.

Last time it was in response to me saying I have no movement below the waist.


Ah. That explains why you tried to order that... item that was stolen from your front porch. It all makes sense now.

Is it wrong I really like Superman Earth One?

Did not enjoy either Wonder Woman or Teen Titans Earth Ones though.

I forgot about Wonder Woman. I actually liked that one. It was weird to be sure, but it had interesting ideas.

I'd have liked Superman alot better if JMS' dialogue didn't have the subtlety of a freight train. I just don't like that dude's writing post-early 2000's Spider-Man. The concept of Clark trying to figure out what the hell to do with his powers was inspired, though, as was the concept of Jimmy being an older daredevil photo-journalist. And I liked the mildly tweaked costume.

You could be one of us. I'm sure @Master Bruce keeps the kryptonite locked away.

S...Sure. No kryptonite here.

Well I'm convinced. The man said there's no kryptonite, so's there's no kryptonite- that's how this works, right?

There's a hell of a lot of posts to read here- not that I'm not looking forward to it- but I don't know if I'll be able to commit without getting a full grasp on what's going on. Whole lot of moving parts here it looks like, and finding my own lil' place might be difficult. Lot of the characters I'd normally gravitate towards are already being used too. But, y'know, I'll keep an eye out.

I mean, given how fast the Flash is and how fast the Surfer can go, there's nothing saying the party won't come to her at some point.

I'm kind of assuming something is going to happen to spread the event out. That said, having Thor in Central City, two weeks after his current story is easy enough, Oklahoma is pretty close to Missouri.

Ahhh. Galactus. That's cheating. No other word for it.

I haven't gotten the chance to go through everything, but I haven't seen any mention of the Blue Beetle yet. Anybody got plans for Jaime and the gang, or are they open for business?
