CBR should rebirth their site back to the old version. I completely dropped it after the redesign.
But not bulletproof?
I just use Newsarama now for various reasons.
I used to love how solicits looked on CBR
Comicvine.
Nope I don't remember this lol
I enjoyed reading this.

Their forums are hot garbage. A lot of elitism within specific character forum. Also a lot of Superman vs. Goku threads.
Reading Black Canary and Green Arrow: Wedding Album (think that's what it's called) and it's fantastic. Love the art, love Canary and GA's relationship.
Hate that kind of thing.

CBR and Bleeding Cool used to be a good place to read forum threads on the latest industry controversy. That thread would turn nasty after about a page into it. Good times.

I quite like browsing multiversity comics, they do some good features and a decent mix of reviews. I like visiting comicosity because they basically like everything and sometimes that's nice. Cbr and newsarama are.mostly good for solicits and not much else these days.
Comic forums are bad in general hence where I found the Marvel Rebirthed thing.

Ahh my VR and dragon Quest Builders obsessions left me with no time for comics. I'm rapidly falling behind. Need more hours in the day!

I'm still in Chapter 1 of DQB. I just found the abandoned castle so now I'm dismantling it and using the castle wall blocks to replace the walls of my town. >

Yea the chapters are long. Just got to chapter 2 and I think 15 hours or so? When I first heard how they did the chapters I wasn't a fan. Now that I'm playing it I'm for the decision. It's a good way of keeping it freshI'm still in Chapter 1 of DQB. I just found the abandoned castle so now I'm dismantling it and using the castle wall blocks to replace the walls of my town. >

I've read 45 Star Wars comics this weekend. I'm doing my part to make up for your slacking.
One more issue to finish Vader Down. Surprisingly interesting. Marvel Star Wars is good.

Vader down was pretty fun. I do think they're making Vader too OP but hey it's fun to read

I only started playing last night after finishing Mafia III. Taking my time with this. After I finish replacing my town walls with castle wall blocks, I'm gonna build a second floor of the town. Need more space.
I think pretty much all off the long standing relationships ended except Reed and Sue. I don't know too much about the super old DC stuff, but I would assume their longest relationship is Lois and Clark even with them not being together these past few years.

Joan has been Jay Garrick's wife / girlfriend since the original Flash was created, I believe. Of course there have been long gaps where either one or both of them wasn't featured.

Are they jealous they didn't think of the brand?
you gonna specify which people or what the argument is about or why we should care or anything like that
The dudes problem is Way and how he is famous. That's the only reason the brand exists apparently. It's not a good look for the creators talking shit.
The main person that I've seen is Joseph P. Illidge (@JosephPIllidge) making the argument with people like Andy Khouri (GA, JLA, and Suicide Squad editor), Gail Simone, Tommy Lee Edwards, and some other creators and people joining in.

They don't like the current books him and his team are putting out? Way isn't even that famous like he was over 10 years ago. Not a lot of people remember MCR now.
To me it seems like creators and editors have problems with Way having so much control over the imprint above even the editors.

Buuuut he also wrote Umbrella Academy, which was brilliant. Sounds to me like these guys are just jelly.
If only it were this simple.

He's Grant Morrison's protogé. That earns you a lot of leeway, I guess.
I'd imagine being famous gives you way more...
For the record. I have no issue with him.

He's a big name, sure. But they wouldn't give the guy his own brand if he wrote shit comics.
It's more about them feeling that having a writer in that role is disrespectful to the editors past and present who have trained to do this job.

Without his strict oversight DC would have probably wanted every single YA comic to tie-in with the rest of the DC universe. It's good that he cares a lot about the imprint and wants every book to be different and mean something.
They have made many worse decisions than that... Let's not give comic companies too much credit here.
They didn't do this to vertigo though. Why would you assume they would want to do it to YA?
You won't because this totally isn't about him being a writer even if they say it is.
Same artist as Venom Space Knight? Looks like it.
That was an odd looking book but not a bad looking book.
oh no people directly involved with the creative process are making the creative decisions, with the agreement of DC's entire chain of editorial command
