And here we go!

I will also be putting Judgment Day and Blue Rose on the docket.

I was planning this since last night, so...I guess the former.

Dave you magnificient bastard.

A must read for any Supes fan. One of His very best runs.

Part 2:
wherein all towns are small

>>93112951
Hey Bullski!
Yeah, and damn, just remembered I was also going to do the first two issues of the new Youngblood run, but you already called dibs so I'll just end off on Blue Rose.

The takeaway from this is that...90's Superboy riff Kid Supreme is underappreciated.

I would love if Youngblood got him back.

>>93112662
the alan moore run on supreme is the best superman story ever told. everyone should read it. even though the art at times really sucks.

>>93113366
Shame about the ending, though.

I think Moore's last issue works as its own thing.
But barely

>>93113398

Shame they let Larsen write it, you mean.

>>93113664
this is one of my favorite issues of the series
the nightmares were really horrific

>>93114177
>>93113664
also, something that always bothered me about the issue: why was it set in the 50s?
the JLA (who the Allies homage) appeared in 1960, and the nightmares (social decay, atomic war etc.) were more prevalent fears in the 60s
the 50s were a more idyllic time

Alan Moore should've been the one to write Superman after the crisis. It's a shame it went to a hack like Byrne.

Not just that, but DC should've done everything he wanted, instead of pissing him off multiple times

>>93114397

The group in this story are the "Allied Supermen of America" who homage the Justice Society. The JSA ended their long run in 1950, just at the eve of the EC Comics horror era and MAD, which this story use. The Allies are the silver age group in Moore's work, a similarly named successor group which formed to fight Florax the Conqueror. A lot of the Allied Supermen members never returned to the silver age version of the group outside of cameos (Black Hand, Storybook Smith, Wax Man, Alley Cat, Doc Rocket, Jack'o'Lantern) and it introduced new members like Fisherman and Spacehunter.

Please note that this is Moore's take on it. In the original Extreme comics, the golden age group was called "the Allies" and had no silver age successor (at least in Liefeld's book). Also significantly fewer members.

Thanks Bullski!

>>93114798
how many fetish can you recognize in this story?

>>93114915

I am monitoring this thread.

Also I probably won't run the new Youngblood until they have a finished story arc, so if you want to run just the first two issues, be my guest.

I'll still probably write an annotated version, though. I already annotated pretty much every Moore era comic down to exactly which DC comics story every flashback homages.

>>93114881
wow thanks

Dynamic Duos

>>93115023

No problem anon. If it helps, the Supreme/Glory part of the story specifically calls back to "Superduperman", a classic MAD parody from MAD Magazine #4, 1953. It was done by comics alumni Wally Wood and Harvey Kurtzman

>>93114979
So is there any indication of Supreme showing up in the new Youngblood, or is it just Suprema?

Supreme is going to be in the new Brigade series, and Liefeld's back up in the new Youngblood is setting it up.


The new Youngblood is playing with Moore's stuff it is hinted.

>>93114397
It's like what /co/mrade Bullski says here >>93114881

But aside from showing the brief decline of the superhero genre in the 50's, the whole point was them doing an EC Comics homage; EC Comics published Tales From the Crypt, MAD, Weird Science, Shock Suspenstories, Crime Suspenstories.

>and the nightmares (social decay, atomic war etc.) were more prevalent fears in the 60s
the 50s were a more idyllic time

Nah, that's what it looked like on the surface, but those fears were around during the 50's. In fact, that was shown in those EC Comics. There were a bunch of Atomic war-related stories in the Weird Science/Fantasy comics. Social issues were brought up in Shock Suspenstories.

Let's get started on that second thread!

>>93116373
Nice. Moore's run was the best, hope they do it justice and ignore the shit out of Larsen's run.

>>93116588
I'm not holding my breath on Liefeld doing Supreme again...but the new team on Youngblood I have a little more hope for.

It's pretty fun so far.

NEW THREAD:
>>93116655

>>93116588
Honestly it seems like Ellis' run sort of acknowledged and didn't acknowledge that run.
