Sigh. As not to be be another meaningless spell correction post I also am against the darkening of Superman and have dropped just about every comic I had on my pull list from DC. I still pick up a few titles I've still found enjoyment in, but I'm also more thoroughly exploring the libraries of IDW, Image, and the like. Convergence only served to show me what I really miss, DC you are dropping the ball. I can't even stand Batman now.bithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-56414004031835912542015-08-22T20:13:34.372-04:002015-08-22T20:13:34.372-04:00^Anj.

Anyway, I share those concerns that if the wiser, more experienced and quite frankly more noble and moral Superman was on Earth at around about the same time the early superheroes and Justice League founders were, why didn't he do more to help out?<br /><br />Even covert actions on his part would surely have been beneficial and productive towards helping out those his other counterpart couldn't. Moreover, it brings up major problems in regards to his inactivity with New 52 Superman and Justice League related crises. Where was the old Superman when Darkseid and his Parademons invaded? Where was he when Atlantis invaded the surface world? Where was he when Doomsday attacked and infected Superman? The list goes on and in spite of how nice it'll be to see a version of Clark and Lois I want to read about, the plot and story issues are going to be difficult for Jurgens to work around IMO.<br /><br />LouisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-3440481122545604822015-08-19T16:37:08.769-04:002015-08-19T16:37:08.769-04:00The Supergirl show has a trailer in movie theaters...The Supergirl show has a trailer in movie theaters? <br />COOL...Genenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-45212772277542804942015-08-19T15:20:21.092-04:002015-08-19T15:20:21.092-04:00being part of a bombing* run. being part of a bombing* run.

They're putting out a lot of books for little return on each. With Supergirl getting a TV series and no book at all, they really show themselves as being extremely clueless. So many things show they're clueless on so many levels, so out of touch with readers and markets alike. I think they really need to get rid of Nelson, DiDio, Lee, and Johns. <br />I just saw a trailer for the new Lego Justice League movie where they get the New52 costumes. Cyborg: "Superman! You're finally wearing your underwear on the *inside*! Smart! But Barry and Hal you look exactly the same!" GL: "You don't mess with the classics!" <br />Grr! <br />Anyway, thank you Anj for reaching out as I was about to cancel JL3001. <br />I'm cancelling PG and Harley, it is such pandering to certain junior high minded boys, and I might still cancel Bombshells, as I don't like how Diana is portrayed and Kara being a part of a being run isn't for me. I think I'm going to cancel Clois & Son because it seems like another dark take on Clark despite him being married to Lois. Comics today are exhausting for me. Maybe I'm just too stodgy, but I'm bailing on almost everything. If they had killed Kara off in JL3001, I'd be done with new comics. Oh well, either Canadian dollar being so poor, I can basically just afford one comic book anyway, heh.

And if the TV show does well, maybe we will get a comic along the lines of Arrow and Flash Season Zero. <br /><br />My favorite DC character has always been Hourman, and I just read that in Earth 2: Society he will be this monster who decapitate other heroes. Way to go, DC!<br /><br />So the Superman married to Lois is set on Earth 0? The final issue of CONVERGENCE made so little sense that I can't even follow DC's thinking anymore. With the Batman/Superman book doing OK, maybe DC should consider a Batgirl/Supergirl comic. The Bat books outsell the Super books, so why not put out what might be considered a second Batgirl book?Wayne Allen Salleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199261942617339556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-7613110584282569852015-08-19T13:38:54.517-04:002015-08-19T13:38:54.517-04:00I'm with you Martin, I think it's fascinat...I'm with you Martin, I think it's fascinating they're reprinting the Wedding Album. Especially after they tried so so hard in interviews in the run up of the reboot to imply that the only reason Clark & Lois married was because of the Lois&Clark tv show. No. They were engaged before the show went on the air, they had to stall to wait on that show. Doomsday is the result of the TV show not the marriage. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-90601688473349953762015-08-19T12:32:59.073-04:002015-08-19T12:32:59.073-04:00It was the best of times it was the worst of times...It was the best of times it was the worst of times....<br /><br />For Supergirl fans that is, we've got a live action TV series about to premiere yet Supergirl herself is relegated to supporting turns in a pair of team books.<br />I'm pretty much convinced DC doesn't know what do with Supergirl and is simply waiting for the TV show give them a push or else they are waiting on some King Hell Pitch from a Creative yet to be named.<br /><br />JF<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-78601520081699621492015-08-19T09:22:49.357-04:002015-08-19T09:22:49.357-04:00You know I'm with you on the darkening of supe...You know I'm with you on the darkening of superman.<br /><br />As for the rest, I am fascinated by the reprint of the wedding comic.
