  1. That looks very cool. One of the worst things about the New 52 is how they took my favorite characters - Booster, Zatanna, Power Girl, Cassandra Cain - and made them either totally absent or totally neutered.

    I hope whatever comes next for Booster in the New 52 is at least as ambitious as that pitch.

  2. Good analysis, but I still think the final issue is a work of art.

    I'll try to give that issue another read after some space from the previous issues, but they did so much damage to Snake Eyes in the prior thirty or so issues, that he isn't even a character worth reading after that.

    You're totally right about the damage they did. I hadn't read the comic in a few years when I read the last one.

  3. To be fair, Knightwing, you always have a single example contrary to regular opinion.

    To be fair, I also heard a lot of people upset about GL not being black. People who don't read comics and never have thought GL was black because of the awesome cartoons. In fact, I stumbled into the IMDB comments on "Green Lantern" once and that was all they fucking talked about.

  4. You guys have to tell me where you got your copies of Batman, Inc. #8. I'd love to read it.

    We aren't allowed to have a reaction to the plot twist without reading the details? How's this: No matter what the details are, I detest the outcome.

  5. I think this is a horrible idea. For the longest time, "Batman, Inc." was barely in continuity. It's just Morrison's little circle jerk of a title - which has never had repercussions in the rest of the DC world. And now he is going to kill off a character who has made huge strides in the other Bat titles.

    As well as Damian has been portrayed in the regular Batman titles, to do this in a fringe book (continuity-wise, at least) just feels totally cheap. Like Morrison was thinking, "People haven't noticed me in a while. Let's fucking off someone."

    FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKKK I hate Morrison.

  6. That's not true, he's always told us he had all nine films planned out from the start. That's why Disney can go straight into production, because the script for Star Wars VII: The Dark Of The That's No Moon That's A Space Station has been in a locked safe of his since 1976.

    See, there are parts of the Internet where this would be a totally serious argument.

  7. Don't forget he was in the greatness that is Battleship, which did poor in the US but was a big hit overseas. It made a hundred million dollars profit but it's on everyone's bomb list for some reason.

    Things that don't happen in the United States don't happen. Silly.
