DC: Rebirth

[Broddie]

Because the same people complaining about "just create a new Asian hero" would never give that hero's book a shot unless it had a familiar name on the cover. Pretty simple.

Blasphemy i always buy new character books when they release. To collect the issue #1, but also to learn and give the character a legit chance. I bought Talon, Vibe, and amethyst when they dropped during the new 52 haha. And blue beetle. Highly regret buying all of them except amethyst though.

 

[Broddie]

You are not the rule. You are an exception. History proves my point correct. Look at all the books featurning minorities that didn't have a familiar enough name to draw your average comic book reader in and how they ended up. Where is the Vibe book at now? exactly. That book was pretty good thing and hands down the best thing to happen to that character in comic books so it wasn't cause of lack of quality just ignorance. Blue Beetle lasted as long as he did in his original pre-flashpoint volume because of the Blue Beetle name. It didn't last long after Flashpoint because most of the readers they picked up with New 52 were never familiar with the original Blue Beetle in the first place and long term DC fans who actually were just weren't into the writing.

DC trying to set up shop in China with zhongguo supes lol, cant hate on em for that.

 

[nujerz84]

Anyone else copped this?

 

[Lou Cypher]

Nah, I keep seeing it at the shop bUT pass it up all the time. Lot of good info in there? Or do they just show sections of new books coming out?

 

[VIBE]

Finally got Hush, finished it quick, not long at all. It was really good. Kinda ticked I read Eternal first, otherwise I wouldn't have known it was Tommy.

Now I'm on the Owls, just picked up vol 1&2

Gonna pick up a volume or 2 every two weeks

Death of the Family and Man Who Laughs are next

There's so much to read ha..

i dont buy weekly issues anymore, but I'm going to get back into getting TPB. I wanna get the Superman Doomed.

 

[Lou Cypher]

Number 1s this month! I think I'm going to pick up action comics for the first time. I always thought action comics was stories of supes when he was young, but the issues of superman I have tie in to action comics on the most recent story arc so I figured I'll try it out. I always hear good things about action comics and bad things about superman comics but I've only followed superman comics since I've started buying books.

 

[VIBE]

anyone draw?

Yeah weekly issues got too expensive for me about a decade ago $2.99-4.99 for a single issue? Nah can't do it. I just wait for the story arcs to drop in volumes because they are cheaper. I just copped He-man: The Eternity War Vol.2 last week but that's probably the last series I cop physically. I've been getting my comics digital now since the beginning of the year through amazon. I don't have room left to keep storing comics.

 

[Dupac]

they ever reveal joker name?

 

[Lou Cypher]

I think that issue is coming within the next couple weeks.

 

[Dupac]

top online theory i've read is thomas wayne

 

[Lou Cypher]

I think it will be something like Bruce/Batman from a different Universe. Or Thomas

 

[Broddie]

No. It will be Martha and then they'll become best pals.

so it would have to be an alternate world version? Or he survived hs shooting? I doubt it. I'm guessing that since this joker was hiding with a different identity for a while, posing as an Arkham orderly, he's been doing it in other ways. I think Joker is someone that Batman or Bruce Wayne knows well. Possibly another hero.

 

[Lou Cypher]

Maybe he's a clone haha

 

[Broddie]

Joker is going to be like a Alfred to Thomas Wayne who robbed Thomas and his wife cause he loved Bruce's mom.

That was basically the Earth-3 Alfred (Outsider) from Forever Evil.

i think after the shooting, and losing his wife, he lost his mind....and allowed the world to think him dead
