Is Geoff Johns really that bad? I'm a Yea Forums newfag and just wanted to know why he's considered shit. I really enjoyed the Shazam movie.

It’s mostly autistic Jasonfags, Lobdellfags, and New52fags that hate him and rebirth. It just seems like a lot of people because they samefag and spam their shit-taste a lot.

This. DC would be better if they killed off Jason Todd permanently and fired Lobdell.

One doesn't have to be a part of your retarded tribalism to dislike idiotic drivel.

Johns ranges from okay to good. He gets a free pass for all the damage he did to YJ/TT though.

Also, What did you guys think of the Shazam movie? I thought it was great but I've never read a Shazam comic.

He’s one of the big name writers at DC so he gets some of the most criticisms from anons since he’s one of the most visible writers. The constant delays to his books hasn’t helped matters when it comes to shitposting and the Snyder cult are obsessively hating on him on Twitter. You’ll eventually start seeing some fanfics about him like how him and Didio despise each other, how he ruined the Green Lantern books, or how he hates Wally.

Shut up, Jasonfag.

He just makes mediocre mush. It's perfectly fine if that's what you want but it's the comic equivalent of watching big hollywood movies.

Johns has a few amazing runs under his belt and some decent ones. He's kind of dropped off when New 52 started, allegedly he hated it then he got to undo it with Rebirth and DC had a lot of success for a while. Then he got a promotion and got to oversee the movies and Didio got take charge again.

I'm don't read much DC, why is New 52 bad?

His Aquaman,Green Lantern and Flash runs were pretty good.

His Infinity Crisis was mostly mindless action but was fun mindless action.

he writes for retards who are super defensive and most definitely also balding dicklets

Honestly, just look it up online. The New 52's downfall is well documented

It had some great runs but replaced some good characters for awful new versions like Emo Lobo.

Calm down, schizo.

He writes good Shazam, GL and Flash and he is bad with pretty much everything else.

>i-it's fun
Not everyone is stuck at age 12.

Johns has contributed A LOT of good ideas to DC over the years, but unfortunately he can't do home runs every time and naturally Yea Forums is harsher on him for it. Mix that with a few not muh fags, and a dash of autism, and the guy gets more shit than he probably deserves.

I generally like the guy's work for the most part. His Justice League however is kind of trash though.
You forgot Aquaman and JSA, both of which were good. I don't expect a writer to click with every character.

Bad writer
Slow as fuck
Prefers movies over comics
Sets up plots but doesn't follow up
Blocks people from using characters he has plans to use, despite not having any immediate plans to work on said character.
Hires his hack friends instead of actually talented people

>and a dash of autism
Johns literally appeals to autists above all else.

Yeah I'm going to add "Anti-Johnsfag" to Yea Forums's Autism Hall of Fame with Tommy, Ladderbro, Damianfag, and Namorfag.

Namorfag is Tommy, why are you ignoring Cranky?

New 52 wasn't the problem. It did well enough and had great runs but the reboot wasn't necessary. The highlight was that it changed things up. Then Convergence happened and that was a filler event while DC HQ moved. That event tanked hard and then DCYou was the comics that took place after it and the comics were too different and the event left a bad taste in everyone's mouth that they were dropping in sales. So they did Rebirth and Johns was so sure people would love it he said they'd cover returns if people didn't like it.

Rebirth brought back the old continuity and merged some of the New 52 stuff in and a lot of ongoings sold well but some anons didn't like it that much because they felt it was too safe and boring compared to the New 52.

His Flash is horrible. His Billy as well.

No matter what time period all comic companies have a lot of garbage with some gold in-between.

>Namorfag is Tommy
Yeah I thought so, wasn't sure. Which one is Cranky again? I lose track of our regulars, besides Boco (who's harmless)
Right because fucking Barry was really doing the book some good at the time.

Geoff Johns isn't anywhere near bad, he's one of the best DC writers of all time with a bunch of runs that are the best that character or team has ever had. It's just a bunch of Yea Forumsntrarians and Snyderfags that hate him.

That is true but you can tell what the overall perception of a publisher is. Rebirth was definitely the best DC was doing in several years and Marvel was at its lowest at the same time. Then Johns left and Didio took over again while Alonso resigned and the Shogun came in.

Don’t listen to the hivemind

Most of his comics are really great and at the end of the day it’s really up to you but I’d say his Aquaman, Shazam, Hawman, JSA, and Green Lantern are very much worth a read

Cranky has chilled out recently, he really only shows up in Wondy threads and the JSA story time threads, he used to shit up any DC thread about how awful all the books were and yelled at anybody who liked any DC books. He was notable because of his autism revolving around the Hanna-Barbera crossovers and how much he used to bitch about them.

Boco mostly comes if you mention his shitty waifu, other than that he lurks Yea Forums as well.

He's one of the very few people who can write both Wally and Barry distinctly and well...

Wow, you're real touchy. That time of the month, I'm guessing.

>he's one of the best DC writers of all time
No wonder comics are dogshit for retards.

HE FUCKING CHANGED BARRY! IT'S A FUCKING OC! OF COURSE HE CAN WRITE HIS OC WELL! HE CREATED IT!

He's a walking plague.

To be fair Barry didn't had much personality before and he just made him a more mature and chill Wally

What makes sense I guess since Wally is supposed to be inspired by Barry and shit.

He made a reclusive and angsty motherfucker that couldn't fit in or share his problems. It's like as if he was trying to turn Barry into Batman.
