JSA Storytime: Gen13

It's definitely my least favorite Russell book so far but that's kind of like saying "this is the worse Tarantino movie so far"

IMO the closer you get Russell to superheroes, the less interesting he gets to be.

Hey I’m actually here on time for the first time in who knows how long

Hey OP. Techno latex is a solid future look.

Well hello, modern terrorist manifesto. Truly things never change.

I have now officially left contract work for a new night shift job, and I actually find it quite nice to always be able to count on coming home exhausted and broken down.
Having actual bennies doesn't hurt.

We all owe Mike Grell a great debt for just straight up drawing bondage gear in Disco Legion

you've reminded me that bendis legion is coming

>To Sell Toys
Absolutely. But I mean specifically the way such media looks and feels. The format, the "BUY THIS" designs have a weird appeal to me. Probably because I'm old and yell at clouds shaped like faux-epic bullshit.

Speaking of selling toys though, when is Road Rage going to be in one of the shows? Give me my toyline waifu, Hasbro.

This reminds me Yea Forums is seething at ''muh trannies'' right now because of the new Rocko's Modern Life movie.

now that's gratifying!

oh shit, I need to watch that. What's it on, or has it been torrented already because I don't subscribe to anything lol

Oh, so the toyetic look was on purpose. Okay, well played, comic.

>Can't Batman be a girl?
Make her a Jewish lesbian too, just for the hell of it. Oh, and have her date The Question, who is also a girl now.

GRIMBOR

hey there OP and friends
this deserves higher quality scans

I've been going through the stages of grief with that and have gotten to the point of "you know, maybe this version of Legion will really connect with a lot of new fans, and though it isn't for me, I'm happy for those people and should be happy for the brand growing"
Then I remember how every time a superhero brand grows it becomes garbage

I bought Perceptor, no joke, it was the toy made for me as a young biology obsessive

The cynical Rocko seems like a weird place to have a positive message of acceptance of modern times and the world changing but a lot of people seem to be relating to it and very happy about it, so good for them

Speaking of, anyone have thoughts on Lois Lane? I know we're not all about Rucka's thing, but for me Rucka does exactly one thing and he does it very well

Basically Rocko's return to the neighborhood after 20 years, Ed has mellowed and his son Ralph is Rachel now.

Rucka sucks dick

I just want the Reboot Legion trades to continue.

On the bright side...given how many times Legion has been rebooted,Bendis's version will probably be replaced within the next decade.

Rucka wants to be a woman who sucks dick.

Yes but I think he's very good at it and if you like things that suck dick as I do Lois Lane scratches that itch

I watched Rocko first run and even then managed to catch some of the shit they got past the censors, but lol at anyone being deeply upset, it's clearly always come from a place of sympathy for people who don't fit in

The blue hair works with Roxy.

Everyone one of his books is the same

We have a Jonah Hex Bronze Age omni and a WML Wondie omni coming out, I believe in everything now

Perhaps the same could be said of all cape comics...

>WAAAAH PEOPLE WHO ARE DIFFERENT FROM ME EXISTING RUINS MY CHILDHOOD
The sheer amount of wasted energy put into whining about other kinds of people merely existing is utterly baffling.

>Speaking of, anyone have thoughts on Lois Lane?
Only read the first issue. It was alright. Rucka, unsurprisingly, has a good grasp of Lois' character, since she's in his wheelhouse. I like that both Questions are in it.

Girl Power's vapid, empty cheerleader feminism was the worst kind of feminism and fueled all the crappy modern internet feminism that somehow is even worse.

You're maybe getting a regular paperback for WML

>Wonder Woman by William Messner-Loebs Book One showcases the most memorable moments of William Messner-Loebs work on Wonder Woman and features classic tales that have shaped the Amazon Warrior we know today. Collects Wonder Woman Special #1 (1992), Wonder Woman #63, #64, #67, Wonder Woman Annual #3 (1992) and Wonder Woman #68-75 (1992).
Bad that it's skipping the stuff he didn't write (so completionists are angry), but good that he will get 100% of whatever the writer cut is from the reprint.
I want that Hex to come out, and "DC Goes to War," but there isn't even a preorder up for the former yet.
DC did inform LCS's that it will now be six pages longer. They added a four page parody to that Hex omni, so now a tard at collectededitions doesn't want it because it doesn't contain DC Special #16 yet (Hex's original canonical ending)
Weird people over there

>implying those won’t be canceled like everything else

Ah well a paperback is fine, just need a second to get up to WW #0.
Also I need to start going to that forum cuz I need more baffling comic opinions in my life.

Lois is good, Renee being in it is funny but she’s probably my fav Rucka protagonist so I’m cool with it

I have a complete Suicide Squad trade collection and 5/8th of Waid Flash. Never give up

Oh yeah, continuing from a few threads ago.
I spent an hour yesterday copying all the sales data on comicchron into an excel sheet for Nightwing series.
The most recent Nightwing issue really is the lowest a book with that name has ever sold. If you want to be pedantic, the last couple issues of Grayson sold worse, but this really is the lowest that "Nightwing" has ever sold.
Weirdly enough, the terrible Bruce Jones One Year Later stuff sold much better than most of Devin Grayson's run.

also that invocation of Rick Astley **predates** the Rickroll, bless him

GO SARAH!!!!

we should read that as an SOP, it's SO WEIRD

Bruce Jones had that OYL banner on it which inflated sales like crossovers usually do

Yup! I am excited.

Everyone is into FE and I don't own a Switch

Fine. Knocked out a bit of Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice today. It's the kind of game I've had to push through because I keep coming across stuff that's way too real.

>Saturday was a pigfucker
How so? Did it involve any feral hogs? Say, maybe 30-50 of them?

have nerdy fun!

Have you ever storytimed Grayson’s run?

It’s sad how it was okay for the first 1/3 part of it but like right after Deathstroke shows up it literally just goes downhill. Like literally the next issue and everything after it is just complete garbage compared to before. Amazing transition in quality, really.

all Nightwing books are story time of pain material

lol no, but I am, as a Texan, familiar with the fact that feral hogs are genuine srs bzns

idk Seeley and Higgins with Chicago and that elseworld thing ended up being okay. Shame about the first half being literally destroyed by crossovers tho

I'm buying them, at least.

The danger of a new version attracting new fans means the old version will fall into disfavor and only ever show up to be mocked for their backwardness if they arent just completely forgotten.

At best his stories are ok

Woah, how the fuck did I post a pic of what I had highlighted in excel. I"m a retard at excel, what?

>sales actually went up after he was raped
I-

MUSIC FASCIST IS GOD'S PLAN.

>Deathstroke
Oh hey, remember when Slade was Dick's archenemy? And now it feels like the two are just straight up not allowed to interact.

Does Ciri become playable at any point in Witcher 3? Could've sworn I heard people bitching about that because "hurr girls cooties SJWs hurr".

Dickfags derail every thread, all his fans are assholes

The way that Priest is trying to shove Dick’s things onto Damian has me grinding my teeth.

Yes, she's playable in a number of flashbacks/other scenarios, but just for limited use

That part with her versus the three hags took me forever to get through

Blood pressure meds have been gig in me dizzy spells, and I'm gonna need to blow more vacation days on an MRI.

But otherwise alright.
Making progress in FE Awakening, making progress in my book, spent yesterday blueberry picking.

Holy shit, it's the one part of McCarran Int'l that's not full of slot machines

Remember- it's not sexual assault if you're gay!

>Damian
... Oh joy. As if the brat didn't already have far too much attention. I was just starting to tolerate the little shit and his admittedly interesting relationship with Jon and Djinn, but then they just couldn't help but fuck another character over for his sake.

Okay, that's cool, even if it's just a side thing. Ciri, unsurprisingly, reeks of waifu.

Ahhh, it is an Ed Benes comic

Hope you enjoy yourself, but some film cassettes, and tell GRRM that Winds of Winter is too late for people to care anymore.

Eat a dick, Brett’s the only reason Wally West wasn’t completely erased in the New 52 and Lobdell is a better writer than most people employed at DC combined

Man, the Bad Annas are all kinds of /d/.

Deathstroke has his own book at moment. I don't think they were heavily archenemies when he had his first solo in the 90s either.

>more action in children’s entertainment
Idk how this is a perceived as a bad thing, artist wants to draw less conversation scenes

Booth somehow took EVS's LINESLINESLINES style and made it worse and lobdell just follows editorial orders.

very happy it's just a miniseries

They weren’t enemies anyway because Wolfman for the most part had Slade being like more buddies with the Titans. He and Gar were more like substitute sons for him anyway.

You say that as though it would be out if place in any Adam Warren comic.

This page is legitimately sad. It's so weird when the book infamous for being cheesecake-y trash manages to get more of a genuine emotion out of you than the mainstream fare.

Gen13 is one of the few non shit mainstream superhero teams ever

We never did get around to reading that Legion/Star Trek crossover. Otherwise, I got no ideas.

thank you this is really fucking fun

....there's a lot of Gen13 still worth reading....

Well, that's one way to end a story, I guess.

Thanks for running, OP.

How about something by Ernie Colon (F)?

We ran Amethyst

oh Russell's Sinestro special was pretty good too

I like Perceptor because his robot mode looks like a robot and not an upright car with vestigial arms.
