Well i'll go ahead and say it...ole PR has a knack for closing threads that don't go the way he wants.

Even though its entertainment, hell smash that "I win" and its hilarious.

PR wasn't the problem, it was his friend rao. we were having a healthy discussion about what we would like to see in the new 52 and he comes along trying to pick a fight, bringing his negativity.

Lol I did not said "I win" you said it. Thanks for implying my victory 😂

You play like a violin 😄

You comprehended that one wrong as well.

The "I win" referrers to the I win CLOSED button he has as a mod.

But I win this one by default because i'm the Sheriff and you're not.

your friend rao is the one who decided to take it there. trying to pick an fight. you should teach him how express his dismay of others opinions with a more tactic retort besides calling everyone a troll.

I'll handle my modding the way I choose, thanks.

So I took 1 more jab, he can handle it ......

You were asked to stop. It should have stopped there.

That goes for everyone else. I'm not looking to close more threads in this forum.

PR we have all been wondering, do you have a sense of humor?

Yes, and when I see something amusing, I'll be sure to laugh at it.

and I told him to stop. I told you to stop too, but you didn't seem to listen.

"children stop it!!" LOL

Honestly how it feels sometimes, yes.

^ I agree, you have a lot of patience dude.

It is hard for us humans to concede when we are wrong.

Mods are needed to stop said irrational behaviour that might appear after we have been proven wrong so many times but still cling to our arguments of ignorance.

When we learn that this is just irrational it is easier to overcome.

Not sure if we have a thread like this already, so If we do, apologies. Basically the idea of this thread is to talk about how people like or dislike how Superman has been portrayed in the New 52 accross the books he's been featured in (which are at this moment, primarily JL, Action and Superman). I'm talking powers and power level, personality, his relationships, and even the costume itself, which was one of the biggest changes on a very obvious level.

I'll start:

Power wise I've been very pleased by how they've portrayed him; already he's a Herald, and more than once we've had people talking about how he's without equal power wise. Hyperbole or not, it does show how highly he's been regarded.

At this point I'd say he's Low-to-Mid Herald, but he's accelerating towards High imo.

Personality wise I like that there are obvious differences between Action, the early arcs of JL and of course, Superman. While Superman seems to deal with it more than the others, I am kind of stuck waiting on them to actually go and give him a girlfriend seeing as Lois isn't in the picture (though they're already hinting at it, the bastards). Hopefully Morrison lets young Superman have some fun. Or even Johns in JL.

The suit? I like it. It being armor doesn't really bother me as much as before, as his powers have still grown quite strong in the past few months. Beating his "clone", going toe-to-toe with Darkseid, etc. All showing that he's a foce to be reckoned with.

My favourite Superman moment post reboot?

Has to be this:

But yeah, very happy with how Superman has been portrayed in the New 52, especially considering how bad he'd had it the last three or four years under people like Robinson and McDuffie.

He looks boss to me, Im gonna start reading them this week and get caught up. WHat is the latest issue and ill buy back from there.

I'm up to superman and action comics 16.

I also welcome superman and WW as a couple.
I would like that there be more hints of their relationships. You know like a phone conversation, or even a mention off panel "hookup"/dinner date. Or the can make brief appearances to say what's up.

Not sure where to put this but has anyone seen Superman Unbound? Thoughts? The man survived the sun going Supernova at a close distance. There were a couple of other good feats. Believe it or not, I liked the helicopter feat. Try holding a 20 lb dumbell like he held the helicopter with his arm stretched out like that.

I enjoyed it. It was a decent retelling of the arc. He even got his "welcome to earf" moment. All he was missing was a cigar.

Same here, I agree 100%. DC has been doing a good job with translating comic-verse to animation.
