Comic Book Questions & Discussion

Deapite my cynicism, I'll be optimistic. Kenobi should be fun.

I'm just salty we'll probably never get the one show that everyone needs: Flex Mentallo.

The comic was genius, and it's in the same limbo Miracleman is.

Flex is in Doom Patrol

He appeared in Doom Patrol:

There is not a single day on KMC without cdtm destroying his own anus.

As he is in the comic.

But I'm talking about his 4 issue mini series. The one without the Doom Patrol.

It's in a legal limbo that won't let it see reprints. Or a movie.

As a producer, Galan.

As a writer, he was responsible for Awake and King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.

Suddenly I'm not being so optimistic anymore.

Look, let's just kill ourselves already 🙁

I hadn't even heard of those films until this very moment. Yuck.

But whatevs. I'm still optimistic that Ewan wouldn't have returned if the script was garbage... And hopefully this Joby fella surrounds himself will people who have a firm grasp of the lore and won't let him shit the bed. In the end, I just want it to be cohesive and well executed. /shrug

Though I am curious if JEJ will voice Vader in this, or if they'll go another route..?

Charles Atlas lost their suit in 2000. DC reprinted the mini in 2011.

Ah, I see.

Thought I remembered hearing about Miracleman seeing reprints. This is related, I take it?

The four issue mini is good, recommended reading for all. Nothing at all like The Doom Patrol.

Except in being very meta.

Marvel recently reprinted the Miracleman stuff, yeah... And it looks like he's about to appear again in the Timeless story:

can someone explain what is happening here-

Exactly why it sucks how neither Filoni nor Favreau seem to be involved in this.

They're trying their best to make Star Wars great again, but they can't be everywhere...

Curiously, neither James Earl Jones nor Scott Lawrence or Matt Sloan (who often voices Vader in animated and video game projects) have been announced as returning.

GEB

Yeah, figured.

And lol @ guys like Extant, Prime, and the Anti-Life Entity being mere puppets/avatars of the GEB.

...If the heroes were smart, that'd recruit Swamp Thing again. 👆

When will this retconning nightmare stop.

Every writer wants his event to be the one bigger than the one before, so it's all due to the newest villain. I expect the next page to be how Perpetua is a fraction of Darkseid or something.

At this point, I legit would not be surprised if Perpetua were retconned into an "agent of the GEB" or somesuch.

Then in the next story it will be revealed that GEB was really just one aspect of an even greater power. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Well, considering the Flashpoint Beyond hints there is something greater than the Omniverse. That actually sounds plausible

"GEB Is just a hand, wait where you see the trans-Omniversal body"

Crisis on Infinite Omniverses: The Great Cock of Darkness

Good to see Mandrakk also being corrupted by the GEB. Because why the f uck not.

The writer also seems to think that Mandrakk appeared for the first time when Superman tried to use the Miracle Machine, when that was no longer Dax Novu, the first monitor, he had already been erased out of existence beforehand, and it was Rox Ogama.

Details are for losers I guess.
