Why? Who did she beat for you to think Thor will not pull a majority against her?

The JLA.

1) The number of people who have taken on the JLA successfully since the Morrison/Waid/Ellis/Kelly have passed is ridiculous. The JLA run of the late 90's, early 00's? That team was the most efficient and powerful team I've ever read. Now it's just embarrassing. I've read that volume/era like 7 times. Never gets old.

2) Issue number please.

The next time I see a "look at this scan, character x would totally beat character y that I dislike now" type of post, I'm just going to recommend that person be banned. It's always the same people, and it's always disrupting the thread and bloating it.

Agreed. Abhi's still salty that Cho did something Superman could never do in JLA/Avengers

You're not exactly on the most stable footing yourself, so I wouldn't throw names around if I were you.

Rool would have died from Krypton's explosion if he had remained on the planet according to Ganthet.


It was appa Ali appsa and he hoped Rogol could've died in the explosion.

Still fishing for same thing as always i see.

Because YOU think Supergirl is Thor superior means that he can beat Thor? When did Abhi become the final decision on who is more powerful than who?


Peer my boy. Not superior.

What is wrong with the dialogue?

Why does everything read like it's a ****ing fanfic?

Bendis

I'm glad I finally noticed it saying "of 6" on the cover today. That's very good news. The bad news is it being a mini format is probably sun amping the sales in addition to the Bendis sales push.

Look forward to Bendis DC events. You'll be chomping at the bits for Zacky Snydes to release his next well starting work that inevitably falls apart.

I can feel the Bendis Force

Speak these lines out loud and feel how bad this dialogue is

Jesus christ this is terrible.

What did you guys expect from Bendis?
Bendis?
Bendis.

Guy's phoning it in big time. Cell phone? Telephone? Phone.
My uncle used to phone his own cell phone.

As long as he gets people talking Brian Miguel Bendis is raking in money. What money? This money? Your money? Me money.

If Bendis is such a piece of turkey shit (and that dialogue is legitimately cringey and awful), why does he appear to be such a big player in the industry and sell so well? Serious question.

I just don't get it. How does this count as professional work?

A rough out-line, and the laziest dialogue ever submitted to a decent artist is what Bendis does. I've never written fiction in my life, but any monkey with opposable thumbs can write that dialogue. Everyone here has read enough comics, that they have enough head canon for 5 years of comics, so it's not as if plots will run out.

He used to do well in his street level stories. Then he started getting put on the main books.
He keeps it "fun" so it can appeal to a large crowd. He has a fair amount of ideas, and he can crank out the work like nobodies bees wax.

It hasn't hurt that he gets put on books relevant to a movie that came out or is coming out. Now he can coast on his name alone without putting in a quarter of the effort he used to put out. People buy it because it's a main book and now Bendis is a huge hit.

See Liefeld in the 90s.

He's basically the Joss Whedon of comics. But somehow worse. And with less feet fetishizing.
