  1. And then it just got even better.

    At the DC Nation panel at the Baltimore Comic-Con, DC Co-publisher Dan DiDio came out going off script, and it was not to comment on who should play Captain Marvel. He addressed the Batwoman controversy, saying he had been offline when it happened but was now up to speed and continuing, on how DC had been committed to making one of their major characters gay from when they announced Batwoman, and reiterating how they had stood by the character in spite of opposition. But he went on to say that Heroes shouldnt have happy personal lives. They are committed to being that person and committed to defending others at the sacrifice of their own personal interests.

    Thats very important and something we reinforced, he continued. People in the Bat family their personal lives basically suck. Dick Grayson, rest in peaceoops shouldnt have said that,Bruce Wayne, Tim Drake, Barbara Gordon and Kathy Kane. Its wonderful that they try to establish personal lives, but its equally important that they set them aside. That is our mandate, that is our edict and that is our stand.

    He stands behind their gay characters 100%, he added, Name one other publisher out there who stands behind their gay characters the way we do. We put her in the book the company was named after, and the series will continue better than ever with new writer Mark Andreyko. DiDio said Andreykoan openly gay writer who is known for an acclaimed run Manhunter and the more recent The Ferryman at Image will start with issue #25. No word on the artist yet.

    After making this statement, DiDio left the panel and sat in the audience a few seats from were this is being typed.

    This came off like he wanted to be cheered for allowing gay characters in the DCverse.

  2. Going to see this later today.

    I concur with with the review calling it odd, there's attempts at comedy but then they go for serious and showing the brutal murdering of people. Then back to comedy. Its really quite strange. And the final act is........... I don't know what was going and how people came to be where they were.

  3. I have no room in my life for another average Superman movie.

    Why don't you go see it and make your own judgement of the movie?

    I disagree with Knightwing about the "greatness" of the movie, but I wasn't bored by it, (although they probably could've cut some stuff out), it is an acceptable movie.
