who thought this would be a good idea
It was a good idea, it was fun as fuck.
What's the issue? Why do cape comics have to be deadly serious? Why can't we have silly shit like FrankenCastle?

Stupid =/= Fun
Stop lowering the bar
>Imbued with the powers of Superman, Lois Lane pledges to use her powers to protect Metropolis as the new Superwoman. The only problem is, Lois’ new powers are killing her, and neither she nor her friend and confidant Lana Lang know what to do about it. Will Lois even survive long enough to find out the deadly secret of ULTRA-WOMAN?

We copying marvel now?

Wait so this is New 52 Lois or Pre-52 Lois? I'm gonna assume the former given the Lana Lang nod.
This is a bit meta, but what are your favorite experiential layouts? If someone has a better term or set of terms for what I'm talking about feel free to tell us.
Pic related is an example.
(Most of these experimental pages obviously fly in the face of 'the rules' though.

What do you think about them when illustrators try them out, in terms of readability and comprehension, following what's going on, where and to whom?)
OP again with more

Obviously webcomics have a greater latitude than ink and paper due to the size restrictions of the latter, and a web page allows for multiple levels of zoom.
Pic related for example would be long as shit (though in production, would probably be made by having one page folded in several times).
When done well, and the layout is still relatively easy to follow and things like dialogue boxes are placed correctly, it can be a refreshing change of pace. When done wrong, it just makes things confusing and hard to read.
Pic related is an example of what I consider good. JH Williams' Batwoman had lots of interesting layouts.
Posting the GOAT layout
Listen.
I'm sorry to contribute to the seemingly endless hordes of movie/tv threads on this board. I enjoy both comics and cartoons, and these movies occupy a gray area, and I understand why that upsets some people. So I do apologize.
I just got back from seeing Dawn of Justice for the second time.
I still can't tell what Lex's motivation is.
When he's introduced, we learn that his father was a German who lived under Hitler. He wants to weaponize the kryptonite as a deterrent against Superman, regardless of whether or not it's ever used, so that we won't live under a tyrant too. We later learn that Lex had an abusive father. On the top of LexCorp tower, he talks of how he came to the conclusion that a god who is all powerful cannot possibly be all good, and that a god who is all good cannot possibly be all powerful.
Is Lex simply lashing out at Superman because God never answered his prayers and saved him from his father? When he realizes he's defeated Superman, he says "Now God bows to me." Lex wants the world to think that Superman plays favorites, takes lives, and is therefor not all good. He's trying to slander this messianic figure and prove his assertion that he's not a figure to be revered, but feared and reviled. So is Lex simply projecting his father onto Superman, using him as an outlet for his hatred?
Also what the fuck does he have to do with Batman? Why does he care about Batman? What does Batman have to do with any of the things he cares about? Why orchestrate Fight Night? Why does he want Superman to kill Batman? Why does he want Batman to kill Superman? If he intended to make Doomsday, why bother having them fight if he had a much more efficient means of killing Superman?
>>81716299
>his father was a German who lived under Hitler
Wait, how old is he? What year is this movie set in?
>>81716299
I pretty much just assume that he's being mindfucked by Darkseid. That's why he's so nutty.
It's either that, or the film is just THAT badly written.
>>81716299
>So is Lex simply projecting his father onto Superman, using him as an outlet for his hatred?
Yes.

He'd rather Bats have killed Supes, for the whole "man kills god", but he had a plan B. Ultimately it was he wanted to bring down the "god" to the level of a human so having Bats a human kill Supes is preferential to having doomsday do it.
The fucking movie spells this shit out for you.
Who could beat DOOM in a rap battle?
>>81716278
Alright, I'll bite because I'm a big DOOM fan.
If you're talking about the rapper, most people probably haha. His stuff isn't inclined to freestyle and shit. He takes time to make his rhymes as weird and thoughtful as he can. He's fucking crazy, and rap is like medicine to him. Would rather take his time and enjoy than prove he's the fastest freestyler.
If you're talking about the Marvel villain, BE IT LEVELING CITIES OR STAGES, NOBODY CAN LAY DOWN THE WORK LIKE THE INFALLIBLE DOOM, MASTER OF THE WORD

I'D SURE HATE TO SEE THAT UGLY MUG OF YOURS IN MY HISTORY BOOK.

Why would you be so mean spirited?
>Seth-Grahame Smith's THE FLASH will reportedly feature the Reverse-Flash as the main villain, but with a "new twist" to differentiate it from the popular TV show.

The twist is that it will be shit

Danny West incoming!
Will it be Barry, all along?
Oh that Cho

That's practically Marvel's new slogan.

Cho's leaning pretty heavily into the memes there
>As the writer of GREEN LANTERN: REBIRTH and THE FLASH: REBIRTH, the word “Rebirth” has come to mean something very important to me. It’s not a brand or a marketing tool; it never has been. To me “Rebirth” is about how to approach mythology – about how to honor and celebrate the characters and their respective universes and embrace the values they embody. It’s about the past, the present and most importantly the future.
>GREEN LANTERN: REBIRTH wasn’t only about the return of Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps. It was building on a great foundation with tales like “Sinestro Corps War” and “Blackest Night” – stories that challenged our heroes, redefined their villains and introduced new threats and adventures built on the core essence of the Green Lantern myth.
>And if we were going to do a “Rebirth” across the DC Universe, we needed to take a hard look at where it was now. And a -Rebirth” starts with bringing something back that’s been missing…
>For the DC Universe, it’s about more than just the heroes or villains we might not have seen in a while: it’s about the intrinsic values of what DC Comics and its universe stand for.
>That’s epic storytelling.
>That’s legacy and honoring the past, while moving it all to the future.
>That’s hope.
>In a world of digital cynicism and perhaps justified skepticism, I hope you’re surprised when you read the books.
>I hope you’ll feel the passion the creators have for the DC Universe within their pages.
>But my greatest hope is that all our readers—old and new, returning and die-hard—get a sense of the entire universe as one cohesive, living organism built on the greatest heroes and villains in the world, honoring what’s come before while looking to what will come tomorrow.
>“Rebirth” is the next chapter in the ongoing saga of the DC Universe, and I can’t wait for you to experience it.
That sounds fucking awesome, but do you get the feeling most of the new announced books arent living up to that.
>but do you get the feeling most of the new announced books arent living up to that.
For fuck's sake they haven't even released a single issue. Can we at least wait until June to shitpost about how terrible they are?
>>81715408
I loved the idea of a whole line built on that 2006-2009 include and transcend style would be awesome, but this honestly just feels like random new runs without any kind of grand vision.
Anyone else notice this?
>>81715493
I am not shitposting about how bad they are, just that Johns crafted this amazing vision and the books show nothing that follows through on that.
A Green Lantern Rebirth but for everyone sounds fucking awesome. We dont seem to be getting that
>it's a "girls seduce the boys and make them explode" episode
>Strong female character is introduced
>Her display of how cool she is is some MAN cat calling her and she flips him over a table
>>81715401
The new Powerpuff Girls looks horrible. And of course they're doing some SJW bullshit.
>>81715401I wanna explode inside them.
I stopped reading DC. What am I missing?
>>81715368
Well we'd have to know when you stopped.
What was last event you remember?
Convergence?
Flashpoint?
Brightest Day?
Final Crisis?
Zero Hour?
Crisis of Infinite Earths?
>>81715470
New 52, maybe 3 months in. JLA was the last straw, with that retarded firetruck.
As far as events, I don't really enjoy them, but the last thing I recall was thinking how much I hated Flashpoint.
just wait
Why hasn't Reboot gotten a reboot or a theatrical movie? I remember seeing rumors online a few years ago but they just stopped being mentioned..
Because no one uses the internet anymore.
>>81715367
>Why hasn't Reboot gotten a reboot or a theatrical movie?
Because it's perfect?
> I remember seeing rumors online a few years ago but they just stopped being mentioned..
Development hell. Where it will hopefully stay. Just like the Highlander remake.
>>81715588
let's hope so anyway. remember the rumors about the remake where it's KIDS going to mainframe, and the only returning character is megabyte?
Can somebody explain to me in a few sentences what the fuck is going on with the DC universe? Because I haven't read anything after Convergence, and I'm still trying to get the whole Morrison Multiversity thing.
Apparently after Convergence all Crise's have been established as canon, and all versions of all characters in ALL of the multiverses exist, including pre-flashpoint versions.
What the fuck is going on? Like what version is the current Superman? Pre-flashpoint or post-Flashpoint?
DC sucks
>>81715048
both
>>81715134
So is the new-52 Superman overhauled?
I really don't understand.
Craig McCracken is responsible for
- The Powerpuff Girls
- Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
- Wander Over Yonder
Is his work getting better or getting worse?
>>81714579
That pic makes me feel worse for him.
It he still gets to bang Faust so that's a still a plus 2bh.

the good aspects of PPG were pretty much all genndy's doing. maybe faust's
Which one /co/?
Right.
I'm a hips and ass man before anything else.
>>81714190
Neither because I'm attracted to real women.
