Ok, so the Martyr design was kinda edgy, but it still had a boss color scheme. And the rest are all great.

Written, drawn by, produced, directed, starring, inspired by the true real life story of Bob Kane and no one else. It's in the contract.

So, I haven't bothered to look. Whats the big debate thats split the superhero community in two this time?

How many times does Rhodes have to die before Tony realizes putting hero against hero over petty squabbles is a bad idea.

New Mut..inhuman can see the future. he sees Thanos getting up to some shit. Carol takes an underpowered team to fight him. War Machine and She hulk die. Tony is mad.

Main characters are an adult woman and a preteen boy.

/co/ projecting their /ss/ fantasies onto it would probably work in my favor since they'd more than likely look past my mediocre writing in hopes of fanservice.

>Do you have an idea for a comic, animation, or webcomic you'd like to create?
Of course I do. Who the fuck doesn't?

It's just the adventures of a group of morally ambiguous mercenaries.

>Let's say you made it, how do you think /co/ would react to it?
They'd hate it and call me Tumblr because they're all women, and none of them are white.

You just have to make them waifus, Anon.

On one hand, I'm in a Burton movie, so I wanna die.

On the other hand, this being a Burton movie, there's a fifty fifty chance death doesn't end shit.

Sure.

What are talking about?

>And he's not just a hero who saves people and does good deeds. He's got this responsibility. He rules Atlantis. He rules a whole nation. He controls the sea, which is two-thirds of the planet. He's the most global hero. Dismiss him, if you like, as a fish-talking guy, but he's incredibly important and he's also much more powerful than people realize.

>So what I'm doing with Aquaman doesn't change much of what Geoff was doing since the beginning of the "New 52" — I think Geoff did a brilliant run on Aquaman and then Jeff Parker after that, and that was something I was picking up on when I took the book over. And of course, we've got the "Rise of the Seven Seas" storyline coming up.

>Nrama: So how would you describe the first storyline, and how it ties into this idea of Aquaman as a character, the one you just described?

>Abnett: With Rebirth, we're starting to really explore that Aquaman has got particularly unusual responsibilities when it comes to being a superhero. He's got a whole nation who depends upon him. He's a man of both dry land and the sea, because his parents come from both places. These two places have constantly been at war. So he's caught in the middle of an ongoing struggle.

>He makes it his quest to redefine his own reputation, to get the world to take him seriously, not just as the guy who talks to fish, or the "other guy" in the Justice League.

>He wants to be taken seriously. And he wants Atlantis to be accepted as a nation of the planet. It just happens to be the one that's under water. He wants to make a really serious effort to connect it.

>We're going to show how difficult it is, how much resistance there is from the surface, how much resistance there is from Atlantis, how incredibly difficult the line is that he has to walk.

>And we'll put some spectacular threats against him.

>Nrama: Rebirth also put a spotlight on Aquaman's relationship with Mera. I assume she'll still be a big part of the book?

>Abnett: Absolutely. She's a huge part of the book. One of the great strengths of Aquaman, I've always felt, is Mera, his beloved. She is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated characters in comics.

>And although it is Aquaman's comic, Mera has an incredibly important role to play. That partnership between them, I just enjoy writing it.

>Nrama: You do sound really excited about the book.

>Abnett: It's such fun. It's been fantastic. Obviously, if DC had said to me, would you like to write Superman or would you like to write Batman or would you like to write Wonder Woman, I would have been delighted. These are iconic characters. But when they said, would you like to write Aquaman, I couldn't have been more pleased, because it's the one I felt I had things to say about.

>I think he plays to my strengths as a writer.

>People do associate me, I think, very much with cosmic superheroes — Legion of Super-Heroes, Guardians of the Galaxy, stuff like that — and although this is not space, it's in the sea, I think it's got a lot of those things in common. It allows me to play with fantasy, science fiction and horror themes that work particularly well in that kind of environment.

>And because it's coming out twice a month, there's a lot of story going on. It's going to become complex and dynastic. There's a lot of intrigue and power playing. I'm not saying it's going as far as Game of Thrones, but it is very much about, how does he keep his nation safe and in control while he's trying to deal with foreign countries, and when he has significant individual enemies?

>Nrama: We saw Black Mantis in the splash page of the Rebirth issue, and on the cover to an upcoming issue. How are you framing him in your run?

>Abnett: Yes. He's sort of the anti-Aquaman. He's actively gunning for Aquaman.

>Black Manta is this wonderful mirror, dark mirror of Aquaman. And his sole purpose is to destroy Aquaman.

>And I want to make Manta not just one of his great villains. Manta previously was a guy who cropped up for six or seven issues every now and then as one of his arch foes. But this is much more.

>Aquaman is the key character in the comic book, but Mera and Black Manta are the other absolute co-stars. If it was a TV show, their faces would be in the credits too, because this is so much about those characters.

>Nrama: The Rebirth mandate for so many of the characters has been to really highlight what's at the core of these characters. It sounds like your first storyline does that not only for Aquaman, but his support cast as well.

>Abnett: That's my intention. The stories about Aquaman that readers seem to like the most are the ones where he's on dry land. They like those stories where Aquaman comes from the sea to dry land, like a fish out of water, so to speak. So there's quite a lot of that. You're going to see him in some unusual situations.

>And also, when I take him to the sea, I want to make Atlantis as fascinating as possible. It's always been depicted pretty well, and it has a nice lore and heritage to it, but I really want to make it a distinctive environment, like Dune or King's Landing or the Klingon homeworld. I want it not to just be a cliche city under the sea. It's going to have its structure and intrigue.

>So I hope that wherever you follow Aquaman in the book, you go somewhere that you find interesting, and you find this new direction interesting.

>Nrama: You're continuing to do Earth 2 along with all this, right?

>Abnett: Yes. It's not strictly speaking part of Rebirth, but I'm continuing to write it. Obviously, it's on a slightly separate stream, although we're doing some very big stories there.

>Nrama: You've done it for a little while. Does it continue?

>>83461588
Did you watch it?

>>83461625
Yeah, it was fucking surreal, like a fever dream.

>>83461588
pretty fucking weird movie, right? i'm surprised it got greenlit but so glad it did
unfortunately i gave it no attention when it came out because somehow it came off like a very different kind of movie to me. more of a 'freddy got fingered' analogue

But what if it doesn't get renewed?

>>83461471
it's not a talkback if the show isn't on right now, this is what you'd call an aftermath thread

>>83461525
>it's been renewed

>>83462163
ok sorry can't change it though

Morrison's Batman and Robin

>>83460680
Should I read any of the lead ups to Batman and Robin, like Battle for the Cowl or just jump right in?

>>83460783
You should read Batman and Son, and maybe Black Glove and Batman RIP.
