She's a new black character created by Bendis they fucking hate her.
I think she's fine, kinda bland, inoffensive. Interested in seeing her interact with the wider DCU
Andrew Watson
You nailed Bland and Inoffensive. Maybe the story pics up later but right now there is not much to talk about.
Dominic Edwards
Personally I felt like they were trying to put too much into her origin off the bat.

She's not "kinda" bland and inoffensive, those are her primary character traits. There's nothing to her, much like her crappy origin comic series where nothing happens.

I legit thought this was just that black power girl that came out a few years ago but Bendis just gave her braids.

Why does Bendis always get great artists?
Jose Edwards
You know I thought the story was heading in this direction where she would be investigating her town and finding everyone else was special and had powers while she was actually the only normall one.
Then having it revealed that she does have powers, she's from a different earth just kind of took me out of it.

See I'm not pissed that Bendis went ahead and made ANOTHER black character for shameless brownie points. I'm pissed because he aged up Jon, sent him off the LoSH, and now Naomi is being introduced in Superman. Fuck that bald asshole with a rake, and fuck him for Teen Lantern too

This has pretty interior art but the pacing is fucking garbage. This is now how a capecomic should be delivered. This is clearly a different genre altogether. You can't have a bunch of WORDSWORDSWORDS and like zero action to make up for it. This is a visual medium not a fucking fanfic.
Lackluster first issue that made reading it a chore. Christ.

It's boring, it's drawn out for no reason with the entire second issue beginning and ending in the same place, Bendis abuses double page spreads, Naomi is a dull Mary Sue, the dialogue is atrocious, the artist seems to have gotten bored halfway through and stopped trying, it's basically just another fucking Bendis comic, and the fact that she's most likely named after the great Dwayne McDuffie is just the biggest slap to the face of all. It's shit.

Doesn't Clark blur himself out of every photo by vibrating slightly or moving out of frame so he comes off like a big goofy loser always fucking up pictures?

I don't really care about her but I do dislike that she's just "Naomi" and doesn't seem to have any kind of super hero name.
What even are her powers? I do know her origin is that she's like the last from her species from another earth so that's something completely original that has never been done before ever.

I didn't mind it at first when it looked like a twist on the Superman mythos and she was an ordinary girl that was adopted by aliens. Then she became super special and awesome from another dimension and I lost all interest. It's pretty inoffensive though and nowhere near the WOKEfest Yea Forums was promising/dreading

Only problem I have with it is that it takes... five issues? to do what could've been done better in two or three. It's a perfectly acceptable origin for a rather milquetoast character, so, you know. Every super hero origin ever, pretty much.

Does anyone notice they tend to give Bendis some of the best fucking artists? Like artists I'd love to see on any other comic, artists that can do and but mostly do page after page of pointless dialogue or characters staring at each other while speechless. FUCKING WHY?

Carter Morgan
Is this Kevin Walker? Because that use of negative space with the panels is beautiful.

He's always been able to get good-great artists. I'm a Bendis apologist a lot of the time but I'll be mad forever about how he hogged Stuart Immonen for so long on bad Avengers stories

As someone who read the issues here on Yea Forums,
if the supporting cast of the new "hero" you're pushing are way more interesting than her, then you are failing to justify why that new "hero" or character needs to exist

It was the same with Pichelli. I don't get it, is it in his contract? Although I did hear that part of the reason Pichelli really enjoyed working with Bendis is because it's absurdly easy work. 90% of it being people standing or sitting around talking to each other.
Thomas Murphy
Tyler Kelly
That's all there is.
Wyatt Turner
That's why he gets the good artists.
Book is guaranteed to sell and they get a cushy job. Fuck, look at the comics posted here, most of the panels don't match the dialogue at all. They ignore his script and just draw the real comic.
Sebastian Rogers
Oh good grief. These metaphors are just so inscrutable! I don't understand, what's going on here?!
Adam Hughes
What the absolute fuck is shreking.
Ryder Russell
The pacing is bad but to be honest I've seen worse.
Ian Turner
>The crowd in the background is completely motionless throughout all panels.

Panel 1 and Panel 3 are the exact same except for the third girl, who's just an edit of her art from panel 2.

LAST FUCKING ISSUE
Dee is on first name basis with Naomi and that doesn't strike her as odd? Is that a small town thing. Every body knows every bodies name but knowing the day the one black girl in the whole town came to town is a huge red flag?
SERIOUSLY, there isn't a singe panel with any other black characters anywhere.
Robert Hughes
The only thing I'll argue with you about is the art. There's some lazy shit like copy and pasting on certain pages, but for the most part it's consistent and holds up. I see your point about artist losing interest but for a shitty Bendis comic at least it's alright to look at.
Lucas Miller
The Bendis shitty character power hour. My favourite kind of thread
Camden Campbell
Plz no bully Dee.
Joshua Foster
Everyone stop bullying Dee!
Leo Hernandez
>SERIOUSLY, there isn't a singe panel with any other black characters anywhere.
Apparently that's supposed to be part of the story
I don't know how since if only Dee and her parents were aliens that doesn't explain why there's no more black people around.
Michael Lewis
their town was smart and exterminated all the other black people
Jordan Murphy
Naomi was bad. And not in a fun way either. Just a dreadful Bendis boring bad
That entire 2nd issue could have not existed and it would have saved us a lot of time.

I wouldn't call her a "Mary Sue" but she is dull.

Brody Russell
>try to be vaguely Supeswank
>Daily Planet (underlined 2 times)
>CLARK KENT?
Probably sums up Bendis better than anything.
Asher Hughes
She's a qt there.
What's she like?
Chase James
Bruh it took like 4-5 issues to say shes an alien
Wyatt Rivera
>What are you talking about?
The pacing is what kills the book, they could have told the same story in 3 issues.
Easton Fisher
I don't see it was paced well I said I was too much.
I feel the origin should be the simplest part of a hero, but with her we get the reveal her parents are aliens, she's also an alien but not of the same kind, from a different earth they know guy who's basically a retired villain, and a villain from home dimension shows up to fight, that all sounds like stuff would get added to a hero's origin years after they've been around.
Nathan Harris
So they just went with Naomi. That's her superhero name. That's like a superhero being named Peter.
Not that there's anything wrong with that, semi-common biblic names can have interesting meanings and Naomi could probably mean some more other than a shallow smash the patriarchy reference mixed with a Naomi Campbell reference.
I mean she's a character in the bible who chooses to give herself a new name other than the one that was given to her, surely Bendis integrated that in the story of a superhero named Naomi, right?
Christopher Baker
No thanks, I don't like that book after what they did to Amethyst.
>Crystal are technology instead of Magic
>Turquoise is useless
>Carnelian is the polar opposite of his original self
>And Dark Opal is a fucking joke.
The worst part is that they use Brianne Drouhard's design for Amethyst but is nothing like the shorts.
Joseph Hill
Dear Brian Michael Bendis the comic book writer,
This kind of scene is already bad in the movies you're poorly trying to ape.
Sincerely,
Some guy.

Did anyone think this was a Black Lantern symbol for a second.
Through this issue with the from one persons point of view of past events, I thought this was going to be some her parents are the bad guys twist at the end.

Aaron Turner
Stopped here and its crap.
I Guess that now you dont need skill to work for dc, yeah yeah this comic has some parts with decent art but its meh

Can Bendis just stop putting his daughter OC's into the books. Also why do most if not all of his daughter OC's steal their power or weapons from the heros.
