The New 52... Will it last?

Started by -Pr-6 pages

I know it's not likely any time soon; I just really don't want things to go back to the way they were for some characters.

I think DC really made a mess with their 52 universes. Since WS was merged, does this mean the old WS universe doesn't exist now? Is it 51 universes? Or what about the New Gods? When Multiversity comes out, one universe is dedicated to New Gods, but New Gods are also on DCnU earth. So there are 2 versions of New Gods?

Yeah, it's a big pit of excrement trying to keep continuity in order for longer than about 6 months. Each new reboot just presents new problems, it doesn't erase the old. It's best not to think about it. No incarnation has been perfect.

They made Guy Gardner more lame, pull the plug on the New 52 already...

They should have gone full post-crisis like reboot. Would've avoided all confusion and complexity of trying to establish a continuity.

Whats wrong with Guy Gardener?

I hate the new 52. It needs to go back to hell where it came from.

TBH I never liked him, his attitude, his Hairstyle, his general appearance and behaviour was just pure fail. He was also always the weakes of the GL, each comic I read with him he was just annoying and ineffective.

His hairstyle used to really suck, looks alright now. Ah well I like his personality but if I was a GL with him we might end up punching each other up.

😂

Written in DC team books, sure, Guy was a joke.

In Green Lantern or Green Lantern Corps, Guy is a beast.

I only know Guy from there so that might explain it.

"If I say be the brush be the brush, got it." LOL (or was it paint can't remember).

And Superman/Batman was one of my favorite series' in the pre-Flashpoint era, from start to finish.
I couldn't get enough of Superman/Batman...but I've been really sluggish checking out the DCnU. I'll probably do like what I did with Planet Hulk, the Galactus Seed, etc: I wait a couple of years until the series is condensed into a graphic novel or a single package in cellophane. It puts me behind the times, but then, I don't have to run to the comics' store as frequently. 😎

McDuffie was an open Wonder Woman fan, and the "Usain Bolt vs Bruce Lee" thing was purely done to piss off some people on the forum and show them he was right.

Hah. That it's consistent with what's been shown between them prior is just coincidence, huh?

I mean, that's pretty much how it's gone in their fights prior to his run, and WW has a better track record against speedsters too.

You're too quick to leap to things being fandom bias.

I think the old 52 universes are gone completely, and it's just the new post-Flashpoint DCnU universe.

And honestly, the biggest problems tend to come from big 'fixes' rather than just rolling with and explaining away what you've got.

Though some of the post-reboot stuff is just laziness (not deciding if Tim is Robin! Titans writer unsure if Titans exist!).

Don't go there, please.

Though it's funny that you accuse me of bias, all things considered.

Oh, look at that catty backhanded insult.

You gonna take that shit Q?

I really don't see what the beef with the Usain Bruce Lee comparison is. Seems quite fair to me.

Once Robinson came on board, Superman was terrible. It started out as barely average, and just descended in to mediocrity.

Him in McDuffie's JLA was bad too, sadly.

At least, imo.

I thought that Johns "last of son of krypton" and "legion" stories were really good. The whole world of the supermen crossover was handled poorly but action came back with that saga that seemed to follow lex luthor after blackest night unfortunately, it lead into that saga with the multiple doomsdays 😘 . Wasnt there a doomsday made to kill other doomsdays in that saga?
