Psssh, old news. It's all about Gotham City Garage now.

Forgot about that one.

 

[LordOfLore]

Any female hero has a future in Bombshells. That is just a given at this point.

Being one of the founding Batgirls is a pretty good deal.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Duke ain't doing much better. So just dump them?

Unfortunately, Duke appears to have a major role in the Metal event.

Meeeeeehhhh

You know DC is serious when they start a statue line over it.

Like bombshells?

Both started as statues over 2 years ago and went from there..

 

[LordOfLore]

Messi, you're the statue master: Did the Green Lantern of Earth-9 ever get any kind of statue or figure?

 

[GAMEPROFF]

I don't hear a lot of people saying that, to be honest.

Because its a movie thats not much discussed, but when its brought, it gets a lot of love.
People said that Scott had the best scene in Civil War.

 

[Messi]

Nope, Jessica is barely getting a statue

 

[Freezasaurus]

Meeeeeehhhh

Thanks, that really adds to the conversation.

Yes, where was it that I disputed that, exactly? That doesn't mean it's not going to end at some point. I was only talking about GCG. They've got a series and a statue line coming, so they obviously have plans for it.

Never saw Civil War.

I wonder if they will do a Metal line for the Dark Knights?

The statue line has existed for 2 years

 

[Freezasaurus]

I kinda doubt it. The evil Batmen are probably just bit-villains DC will fumble like they did the Victim Syndicate. But I'd love a statue set of the evil Batmen.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Do anyone remember Bunker from the New 52's Teen Titans?

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

The closest we are getting is the Nomura's Bat villains dressed as Batman.

Do anyone remember Bunker from the New 52's Teen Titans?

I know that he was on the team and nothing else.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Do anyone remember Bunker from the New 52's Teen Titans?

The purple guy, of course. Though Rocafort's art was far more memorable than that dude.

lmao no one asked for that.

True.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

I'm guessing Caitlin Fairchild and the rest of Gen 13 will appear in a future issue of Wildstorm.

 

[echoshifting]

I liked Mech Cadet Yu #1 a lot. It's definitely slow, but the characterization and overall groundwork are great. It has an awfully charming cast, and I can already sense the feels creeping up on me. I'm getting kind of an Iron Giant vibe from it. I'm excited to see where it goes.

This is probably one my daughter would like

 

[LordOfLore]

Speaking of Wildstorm, from Ellis' letter:

Meanwhile, I'm pulling apart the script for THE WILD STORM 9 because I hate it and it needs something else, and staring at my notes on PROJECT OMAHA, a comics project I began last year, and trying to get my head back into it -- it's a very specific sort of mode, and I may just need to rewatch FURY ROAD on loop to get my head back there.

A thing I began in WILD STORM 7 - out September, we're taking a skip month - is that each issue now seems to have a little mini-movie in it, a big central scene. 7 has one, 8 developed one out of nowhere, and I feel like rolling with it.

The great joy of comics is that they work just fine without conventional structures. In fact, sometimes, they demand it. Regular, comfortable three-act or five-act structures sit really weirdly inside certain kinds of comic. I ended up building a really odd rolling five-act structural template for MICHAEL CRAY, which will start killing poor Bryan Hill inside six months, but it serves the notion that stories demand closure but ongoing monthly titles demand a continuous waveform.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

I didn't think Voodoo in the New 52 was a bad comic.

Spoiler

But I was confuse with the ending that focused on Voodoo's clone becoming a major villain.

It can't be much worse than the rest of the Wildstorm books that they did in the New 52.

 

[echoshifting]

X-Men Gold #9, dropped. Terrible. This book has often been bad, but I draw the line at boring. Once again an exciting last page - I love

Spoiler

Omega Red

- but Gold never delivers on these teases, so I'm not going to bother. Hopefully that character turns up in a better book soon.

I liked it, too. It was always going to be one of those cult books that only a minority really liked.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

I'm also glad they remember that Voodoo is black.

 

[Lashley]

I dropped Gold after #1

Blue is better

 

[echoshifting]

Yeah I like Blue a lot. I even kinda like this weird tie-in

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

This is true. They fucked up Team 7 though.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

This is true. They fucked up Team 7 though.

There are so many times that artists forget characters like Talia Al Ghul and Connor Hawke are suppose to have dark or brown skin.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I'm also glad they remember that Voodoo is black.

Kind of. I mean, she's an alien, though. Her primary disguise is that of a black woman, yes.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Kind of. I mean, she's an alien, though. Her primary disguise is that of a black woman, yes.

Her human half is black.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Her human half is black.

Okay, yeah. I only remembered so much about her. Voodoo was a ways back.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

There are so many times that artists forget characters like Talia Al Ghul and Connor Hawke are suppose to have dark or brown skin.

Talia Al Ghul is a weird one for me. I never knew she was supposed to have dark skin for the longest time. A majority of artist that draw her copy what she looks like from her first appearance in Batman.

 

[Wanderer5]

There are so many times that artists forget characters like Talia Al Ghul and Connor Hawke are suppose to have dark or brown skin.

Talia Al Ghul is suppose to have a darker skin? Doesn't seem to be the case for a while now, least for TV and movie stuff. Different story when it comes to comics?

 

[LordOfLore]

Just a few more days...

 

[Einchy]

How many chapters of Mr. Miracle are there gonna be?

 

[Sandfox]

Or try harder.

They've been trying pretty hard with Duke.

 

[LordOfLore]

How many chapters of Mr. Miracle are there gonna be?

12 issues. Just like Omega Men, Sheriff of Babylon S1 and Vision.

 

[Poodlestrike]

How many chapters of Mr. Miracle are there gonna be?

Twelve, same as Vision and The Omega Men.

It's gonna a tour de force you guys.

 

[Einchy]

12 issues.

I guess I'm gonna be waiting a while to read it then.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

On another note, Gleason's art in Green Lantern Corp is worse than I thought. I enjoyed his art a couple years ago, but his work here is rough.

She suppose to be biracial.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

where were you when Thomas King invented the nine panel comic grid

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Reading comics in 1986.

 

[VanWinkle]

His art has improved a lot from his earlier days. Even the GLC stuff gets a lot better as it goes on.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

His art nowadays is very weird. It feels like his colors are brighter than usual. It feels like the sun is always setting in all of his panels or something.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Grifter in the New 52 was horrible.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Grifter in the New 52 was horrible.

Agreed. Grifter is just a bad character. They tried to do something with him in Future's End.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Agreed. Grifter is just a bad character. They tried to do something with him in Future's End.

They tried so hard to make the Daemonites the next major antagonistic force in the New 52, but it didn't work.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

90s Wildstorm stuff were rarely good.
