What are your feelings on Ava DuVernay (https://twitter.com/ava) directing the New Gods movie in collaboration with........Tom King (https://twitter.com/ava/status/1154923280505036806), lol?

Marvel's answer to Female Furies.

"The latter, DuVernay suggested, is the result of her fandom of the character Big Barda, the leader of the all-woman fighting force. “I’m looking forward to [the Furies] so much,” she said."

I hope to god it's based on the recent comic 👆

......that just makes me sad and now I want to revert to my Mungi days. It was a simpler time then

You never stopped being Mungi. 👆

Meanwhile, Bendis - potentially the most boring and decompressed Superman writer of this decade - is ruining the Superman/Legion connection....before he has even started.

Kill me.

On topic..

Interesting. I like TK. His take on the New God's is refreshing. The only movie I saw of Ava was Selma... which was underwhelming

@Phil

Bendis is already f*cking with the LoSH continuity?

Yeah pretty big retcon

Very diverse cast. I love it because they changed the skin color of half of them.

I haven't been keeping up with Superman because of well... Bendis.
Bendis?
Bendis!
Bendis.

But Superman and Zod seem pretty chummy, and is kind of something I want to check out. Good idea or no?

And DiDio wonders why people would rather read decades old stories...

I think this page -- right here, is what stops me from reading comics, tbh.

No offense... SuperMAN was it? But I wasn't talking to you. It's not like LOSH could use someone who's saved the multiverse more times than anyone else.

And Jon is now the creator of the United Planets [i.e. .. Legion and its whole thing in its entirety]. Like...the whole thing.

This is probably...the worst thing that could have happened, short of Superman having an orgy.

Bendis truly is a disgusting human being.

It's also a side-point, given what's going on in the bigger picture, but DC is such in a hurry to race-bend people, that they've gotten confused and had to cancel release dates and pull comics out of the shop since they can't keep the color straight.

This has become so pathetic, it's hilarious.

Calling it now. Bendis is going to make Jon the most powerful Kryptonian to ever live.

Superman himself has already been put on the backburner, ffs.

Likely right. Could see him be similar to Christopher Kent (countdown arena)

But this all explains why Bendis randomly aged Jon so he could make him front and center in Legion

Also glad to see some much needed diversity in DC. Hope to see them turn more characters unexplainably black somewhere down the line. I'm really feeling Superboy being black soon. I could really get into the character if he was suddenly ebony and no one in comics noticed and they made no effort to even acknowledge the change.

Bendis is an innovator. 👆

Pretty sure that was always going to be a direction they took with him. I know they originally wanted him to just be average, but couple Superman's son with Bendis-tier writers and "untapped potential"

Can Chamber raise the dead thoughts of Hel if he opens all the doors to the rooms of Vahalla?

Lovin Bendis over at dc. Just admiring his work tbh.

You realize Bendis writes an incredibly powerful Superman right? Bendis Superman was never going to be good for anyone except people obsessed with feats.

This is exactly how I predicted though. Bendis wanks Superman and his story will be complete garbage, and every character will suffer besides Superman. Seems he wants to wank Jon though too so will be interesting to watch Superman take a backseat but then still be better than everyone else.
