Is he the next big thing?

>>78383783
Between Babylon and Vision, I'd say yes

>>78383783
No. It's hard to understand his books because there are no narration boxes to tell me what I'm supposed to be looking at. He's nowhere as talented as Scott Lobdell.

>>78383783
I hope so.

I also hope he goes full Morrison and pictures of him teabagging a giant black guy surface.

10/10

I knew this was bait and I'm still triggered.

NO

THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING

>>78383783
Yes, probably, but I'd say he's already overrated.
Vision hasn't even gotten good yet.
That's not to say it's bad though

>>78385949
What a shit opinion.

>>78383783
That seems to be what everybody thinks.

Now watch everybody start calling him shit one year into some A list book.

>>78385979
Why?
I like his books and I think he's a good writer, I just think he gets too much hype.
Given a little time I'm sure he'll write something deserving of it all.

>>78383783
He should be, but I don't want him to get stuck on a big title that has a lot of editorial oversight even though he has the talent to do a good run on an A-lister

>>78383783
I can't wait for people to turn on him and hate him for being a SJW or something.

>>78386042
I'm surprised they don't already. He created a muslim character, is okay with Helena looking black, and is okay with Dick being part romani

Another flash in the pan.

>>78386180
Don't forget fully embracing Kyle's latino heritage.

>>78386248
And Hal being jewish.

>>78383783
Lobdell fans hate him because he writes a better Jason Todd than Lobdell can

Kyle Rayner fans hate him because King writes Kyle as a person instead of being Space White Power Jesus

>>78386775
Oh, and John Stewart fans hate him because his one-shot didn't all about how special John was

>>78386848
Don't forget that John was a marine.

>>78386848
When did he write John?

>>78386905
Darkseid War Green Lantern one-shot. John fans were complaining that he only showed up for a couple of panels in a story about Hal Jordan.

>>78383783
Tom is a qt. he needs shave his head, tho

>>78386180
>with Helena looking black,

She looks black?

>>78386934
How awful, that a story that's not about him is not about him.

>>78386180
>>78386248
>>78386299
Sjws should hate him then, since none of those are blonde women.

>>78386985
They hate him for sexualizing Dick.

>>78386970
Well she doesn't look white

>>78386985
He's in a bunch of the "Best Of" lists in ComicsAlliance's polls. Winner for Breakthrough Talent, runner-up for Best Writer, runner-up for Best Superhero Comic (Grayson)

>>78386985
There already was a very, very small group of people who over-identify with Dick Grayson who tried to start shit about objectification and sexy fanservice being literally rape.

Also Scrapps is a blonde woman.

ayy lmaos don't count as representation of any kind, friendo.

Depends on who you ask. I was under the impression he just made her a swarthy Italian I know I know the whole Sicilians are half black schtick but I heard she's just plain old mixed but I'm not sure.

>>78387119
I think they confirmed that she was mixed after some idiot journalist tried to accuse them of making a fake minority character in Helena just because they didn't display her family history in every issue

>>78387162
I hope that person also gets mad at dark skinned Sicillians and Greek people in real life just for existing.

>>78387096
>implying they read Omega Men
>implying anybody reads Omega Men

>>78383783
Is that Karl?

He's the next big thing until /co/ decides he was never good in the first place.

Such is the circle of life.

>>78387311
HAAAAAAAA SYHENNAH DAH BA BE DE BA BO

Is his work actually good on it's own though, or do we feel his work is better because of the lack of narration boxes telling us what to think, maybe allowing us to speculate more and inject shit into his stories that isn't even there

he's probably my favorite current writer, in that I think all of his books range from great to fucking excellent so far. i just hope he gets a lot done before editorial starts trying to push him

>>78387438
I never even noticed the lack of narration boxes thing while I was reading. It's not like there's no dialogue.

>>78387438
Read Grayson: Futures End, Grayson #5, or The Vision #1 (which does use narration boxes in an awesome way). His books are packed.

>>78383783
Nah, his running gag of gay pandering and fanserrvice will run out sooner or later.
That's why it only work with minor characters no one really cares about.

>>78383783
Loving his stuff so far. Sheriff, Vision, Omega Men, Green Lantern oneshot and Grayson are all incredibly enjoyable.

>>78387620
Seely does more of the fanservice in Grayson, and there's no in any of his other books.

>>78387620
so edgy

>>78387620
You've never read anything besides Grayson, have you anon?

>>78383783
>Omega Men flopping hard
>Grayson only selling because it's a batbook
>Vision only selling because he became popular after the movie

sure next big thing lol

>>78387620
King isn't the one who does most of the fanservice beyond Dick being shirtless.

>>78387743
Vision isn't even selling, Marvel is just giving copies away for free.

>>78387743
>Vision selling
The #1 didn't even place in the top 50. It's barely above Black Knight and Moon Girl.

>>78383783
My dick is bigger than this guy.

>>78385737
Wat?

>>78388868
His Dick is bigger than you

pretty much

>>78385717
lol

DESU Vision is well written but it isn't particularly amazing two issues in. Grayson and Omega Men are absolutely fantastic, however. I don't think he's overrated at all.

>>78389063
I feel his Grayson is great, but weakest of his works. Vision #1 was amazing, but hard to judge the series with only 2 issues in.
