That and at the end of the day it isn't about the disparity, it's just about selling more. If I sell one more than you then you are on the verge of bankruptcy while I am flourishing. It's simple economics really.

I think Albie has finally run. Phew.

Interesting. I do give a shit Bent.

Have you never considered though that maybe people feel the same way about Joker that you described about Kang. I mean he's also a try hard he's just sassy which waters it down. I respect your answer tho

Well, I certainly think the Joker's best qualities are his over the topness and his ability to liven up certain plots. If people like that about Joker I get it, the best incarnations of the character (such as the one in Btas) play on that strongly.

I don't think the basis for the Joker character are particularly good as the idea that he's chaotic and evil at the same time feels terribly artificial. But writers siimply refuse to do an effort to write that difficult balancing act under the blanket excuse "he's crazy". Pure concept characters like Joker or Superman cannot be turned and twisted randomly hoping good plots just happen, they need to be written pretty deliberatedly. And Joker really doesn't interact with others besides antagonizing which really limits his scope.

Also I can't state this enough: his visuals are top notch and he is really a visual media beast in that regard.

I don't think...hmmm...I don't think so much that Al is a loser per se. I mean yes he loses(r). But I think it's easier to just bash him and overlook the deeper concerns at play here. I think his reality view is stemming from maybe a childhood drama perhaps? Maybe he's morbidly obese. I think maybe deep down inside it's a cry a for help. Maybe when he wipes after he poops his finger strays too close to the hole. Things like that can mess up your world view. We should be encouraging and not bash the differently abled.

You were missed, Bran.

evidence of what? A semi popular character in a company of popular characters?

How is it only relevant to comics but not other forms of media?

Has Clark ever been shown to drink? Or be inebriated?

Has any major hero been shown to have qn addiction problem in DC? Aside from making Robins

Speedy.

Elongated Man.

Constantine.

Martian Manhunter is addicted to Oreos 😂

Superman has drank in the past, but his powers mean he doesn't get drunk. DC will tell you he doesn't drink beer or any kind of alcohol, but iirc he has at least once or twice.

^ Superman drinks milk all the damn time, not because he enjoys it or wants to, but because he is lactose intolerant and Lois can't imagine sex without hardcore scat in the worst possible ways involved.

Marital obligations...

They are all virgins in DC. Eternally clean and sober.

Except Guy. That's why he's called that

Thanks, I was just curious, after Stilts answer I am going to stop. Being curious😅

I honestly keep forgetting that Constantin is part of the DC universe. I dont know why. He always feels like his own thing for some reason.

Because whether you were or weren't you better prepare for Marvel movies pal!

Hell to even get Thor comics to sell they litterally changed almost everything about him. Meanwhile Superman just fused 3 different eras to sell. a good story can pull in more sales than garbage stories any day of the week. YOU'RE looking at it from a fanboy perspective, instead of a logical business perspective.

You know all credit to Bran. He's inspiring and I'm truly trying to be a better human being by following his example. Al is my first stop on my redemption pilgrimage. He will be my Mona Lisa.

Bran has that effect in all of us
