I don't get it. Like, I get it's a parody of capeshit. Death of Jason Todd and all that. I get that it's a parody of Seduction of the Innocent. But why do people like it? It seems really heavy handed in portraying what it wants to, the only real good moment being when the sidekicks find out their mentors are going to kill them because they're about to be 18

It should have been 10 issues not 5 desu

> the sidekicks find out their mentors are going to kill them because they're about to be 18
Let's play a game.
You give me the canon logic behind this and if it makes sense and is not just edgy bullshit you win some imaginary internet points.

We get it OP, you watched that one episode of Comic Tropes.

money stops flowing when they stop being teens

Why don't you just read the comic?

Not gonna waste my time on edgy capeshit deconstructions unless they're very, very good.
I'm not 15 anymore.

Why are you wasting your time on Yea Forums then?

But you're wasting your time in a thread about edgy capeshit deconstructions.

Because it's honestly much more entertaining and interesting to read what anons post than reading edgy capeshit, well at least edgy capeshit that is not really good.
There is
>the collective shitposting and opinions of hundreds of thousands of retards
vs
>one or two guys have a brainfart and get someone to illustrate it

He made his thread to get info from people who like this crap.
He's right. Superhero deconstructions are a dime a dozen, and never really have anything new to say. Rick Veitch is also a terrible writer. I'd personally just read actual capeshit than the 1000th version of the same deconstructive shit. At least the capeshit isn't pretending its repetitive parts are profound, unlike the OP post's comic

I agree, I feel like the characters could have been fleshed out
Black October are horrible people who only care about money. Batman Expy was running out of money for his house, Wonder Woman Expy wanted new heels and other shit.

The worst part is that with the former you always have someone disagreeing and starting something about it, while with the latter noone ever disagrees with the points that the comic is pushing and it just jerks them off forever.

Also was there a reason why Doctor Blasphemy was the butler other than shock value like the rest of the book?

Can somebody post the alternate ending?

I can't find it

This comic taught me so many gay slurs.

I think its implied that he was In on the whole thing with killing off sidekicks, that's what I assumed rather than he being the villain just for shock value

I like the harsh jabs at DC comics, but even then this comic’s a bit much. I like the idea of Superman-expy ruining everyone else’s shit in the end.

Tell me about the Veitch. Why does he rewrite half the dialog for the collection?

Maximortal is simultaneously more hilarious and heartbreaking than Bratpack.
