I don';t like this conversation so I enact the Rex the wonder dog rule

Hmm okay.
 
I cannot believe that I had not noticed this before, but Red Robin's nu52 costume is AWFUL.

Like, legitimately awful.

HOW DID I NOT NOTICE BEFORE!?

I don't think it's that bad. Honestly, remove the cross belt and it's significantly better. Even if the emblem is still there, it's still an improvement.
 
Evil Hyperman?

maybe.

but no.

Finally, his true origin shall be revealed! (how do I post pics so they have to be clicked to show full size?

latest

You only have to do that if pics are stupid crazy huge in resolution. Your pic is quite small. Seems ok.

If ^he^ is coming back part of me's gonna think that pre New 52 DC somehow exists in that "Heaven" dimension and...stuff...probably not.

You know, given a do-over, I think something American Alien would have been a much better start to the DCCU.

I always like when early Batman and early Superman mythos are intertwined.

I wouldn't call that an improvement on anything :/

Only two problems with the N52 look are the overdesigned harness straps and maybe the cape (though even that works a lot of the time). Change those and you've got a perfectly good costume

That entire costume doesn't suit him at all. The cowl may seem outdated but it invokes a very silver age look that works for Tim.
 
I've never seen nor heard this sentence in my life.

Until now.

I'm intrigued as to why. Most people that I talk to or posts on forums always make it seem as if they didn't care for Jason until he became Red Hood.

I always felt that Jason's tenure as Robin could be really, really interesting if given a good writer, but he's never really had that. Conceptually, Batman taking in a broken little soldier and inadvertently teaching him some of the wrong lessons is good.

The huge amounts of salt that would come from Max Landis writing a mainline Superman book would be worth it.

Never understood the hate for him.

Sure, he is an entitled douche, but he really understands and is very passionate about the character.

Not many writers since 2011 have been able to tick those boxes.
 
There was no need to ever get rid of this Tim Drake costume

Well they tried to make him go solo. Red Robin was apparently the way to do that, and that's fine, but the problem is trying to come up with a "similar but different" type of costume. Dick and Jason chose completely different namesakes, and thus could take on radically different outfits. Making Tim "Red Robin" was the problem, but then again I'll admit I don't know what the in-continuity reason for his choice of name was.

Huh, in an invterview with Comicvine Didio said the Rebirth special has what he thinks is the most controversial scene done in all his time there. Considering some of the things he's overseen, that could really be saying something.

Well, it'd Didio, so his sense of controversial/conventional is a little bit warped. Could be a big fucking deal. Could be Kate & Maggie getting married.

Dat's fucked.

lol my first thought was Kate and Maggie getting hitched and Didio saying "same sex marriage! So controversial" and JHWilliams III being all "Fuck you".


I saw someome joke maybe we all missed some clue in Final Crisis and Darkseid actually won and the New 52 has been the Omega Sanction, a "helm without exit or end"...then I realised that sounds Morrison as fuck and I kind of want it.
