I wasn't expecting Lobdell to actually aknowledge JD's previous appearances in Catwoman

Jesus, this dialogue is so bad. It's like they're all talking directly to the audience

>>78951471
>being tortured underwater
>still making shitty jokes in his inner monologue

Christ, Lobdell

>>78951832
>Lobdell using such compelling storytelling devices, like killing off a woman to get Jason angry

Wow, this arc really is going to weird places. I like it!

>2016
>still no Jason+Tim ongoing

Why? It has been proved over and over that they have a great chemistry. Why can't we get out Red Bats series?

>>78953246
Because DC would do something stupid like give it to Lobdell

>>78953246
Because Tim is the only reason why Teen Titans isn't below cancellation level yet. They don't want to put him in another book where he'd be the focus.

Also they don't care about Tim anymore.

>>78951764
>Lobdell referencing anything not written by himself
whoa, did Hell already freeze over?

>>78953622
Lobdell has referenced stuff from Snyder, Morrison and even Tynion before.

>>78954291
But he often gets it wrong. Like in the DOTF fallout, he's talking to Damian, and he thinks about the time they were Redbird and Wingman. You know, the same night that Damian died.

>>78954499
The timeline for Batman Inc never made a lot of sense in comparison with the events on the regular batman books.

>>78954499
desu I thought that despite continuity issues that was a pretty nice refference since Inc was one of the few times a writer actually tried to make something with Jason that was not My Chemical Romance simulator

>>78954499
yeah, but that's just having trouble fitting Batman Inc. in with what everybody else was doing. None of it really fit perfectly.

>>78951257

Red Hood looks like he just experienced a "nutted but she's still sucking" moment.

>>78953622
the fuck are you talking about? Lobdell isn't Bendis. He referenced the Azzarello WW run when he had Orion and Superman have a slugfest by having Orion already know Diana.

>>78951257
damn, didn't realize they got rid of Dennis Medri, I liked his Greaser Batman Art

Glad to see Jason is back to his old outfit. Never liked the hoodie.

>>78951684
Yay! Ducra's still canon! Maybe Essence will come back.

>>78955255
>Lobdell isn't Bendis.
His dialogue certainly tries

>>78955277
Yeah, it seems he had issues fitting on the working rythm of mainstream publishers. A shame since his art was amazing

That being said, Fernandez is fucking killing it

>>78955606
just because you dislike his style doesn't make him similar to Bendis. Lobdell has a specific, old school narration style in his stories simply because he's been writing comics for twenty years. It's like bitching about Claremont explaining what is already visible on the page.

>>78955606
Lobdell doesn't do Bendis speak.

>>78951257
this character is still around, and still has that face?
is this a joke? Is DC editorial making some kind of joke, and I am missing it?

>>78955790
Her oneshots sold like crazy. Her name has Joker in it.

And Jason as killed by Joker! Don't you get it??

>>78955756
And comic writing has changed from 20 years ago. Scripts are no longer written as an afterthought.

Lobdell's style of dialogue involves littering the page with "snarky" quips, followed by having the character tell the audience that they're being snarky.

>>78951764

We might be close to ditching the mask for good >>78955790

>>78955871
personally I like the style, each to its own.

>>78951788
Fucking amazing splash page

>>78951257
Oh look, another white male character turned into a woman
>it's not the Joker, its the """ jokers daughter """
Functionally irrelevant.

>>78958394
The character has been around for decades though

>>78951942

Its really starting to frustrate me

>>78951298
>>78951281
I really like this opening

>>78962505
I thought I missed an issue. Was wondering how it went from Roy and JD about to fight lava zombies to that.
