Trying to settle into her new life as an Earth girl, Shade finds the body she has taken over doesn’t have the same skills as it did when its previous inhabitant was in charge.

Written by GERARD WAY and JON RIVERA—Art and cover by MICHAEL AVON OEMING—Variant cover by PAUL RENTLER

Cave and his ad hoc team of spelunkers (his daughter Chloe and best-bud mechanic Jack Wheeler) have answered the call to adventure! But as they search for the lost city of Muldroog, Cave’s employer sends a crack team of his own in the latest in subterranean transportation: the Mighty Mole MK 2, led by a famed explorer from Cave’s past. And it looks like they’re out for more than just the return of EBX property…

CBR fucking ruined their solicits

Also Monday for full solicits and if there's any stray early solicits, do post them here I guess

>>86344952
>Doom Patrol
>this shit concept is still around to infect the world with it mediocrity
That's utterly offensive.

>MATURE READERS
>Doom Patrol
>mature
Yes, because inconsistent tone and unlikable douchebag protagonists are "mature".

>>86345056
(you)

>>86345056
Congrats! It's a (You)!

>>86345018
disgusting
the old layout was great for solicits

>>86345130
I hope newsarama didn't ruin their solicits since those were the two places I could actually go to for them

What's Doom Patrol's concept and appeal ?

>>86345311
X-Men knockoff MADE ON DRUGS.

>>86345311
budget x-men for people that hate marvel for no reason

>>86345311
Grant Morrison invented them in the 80's. You should read his run, it's really good. No one since has been able to make them as good. Then again, who can top Morrison?

>>86345342
>X-Men knockoff

Except Doom Patrol came first.

>>86345346
>hate marvel for no reason
Oh there are plenty of reasons.

>invented doom patrol

I'm out. Done with /co/. This place is fucking retarded and if not it's full of shitposters. Fuck this, I don't need this

>>86345311
Bunch of freaks and weirdos fight equally freaky weirdos to save the world, or at least small fishing villages.

>>86345442
You're just as retarded as this place, you can stay.

>>86345311
weird superhero team in the DC universe, people saying its a x-men ripoff are either dumb or trying to bait.

>>86345130
>>86345161

it's insane how bad they fucked it up.

>>86344979
>highschool drama
Hmmmm...
Hopefully there will be a lot of subversions if not outright disregard for that setting in favor of something more interesting.

>>86345499
Seriously, taking such quality bait and going apeshit like that is just...wow.

>>86344952
I liked it, the art is okay but when it changed styles to show the Gyro world, WOW!

>>86344963
Tommy Lee Edwards and John Paul Leon. I really hope the writing is good because this will be the best looking comic.

>>86344979
The art in the preview looked kinda bad, writing was fine an the concept is strong

>>86344994
Oeming sucks. Isn't this supposed to have backups by Tom Scioli? When do they start?

>>86345342
>>86345346
>>86345378
This is your nu/co/.

>>86345875
Live-action was a mistake.

So many faggots that don't read comics but feel the need to make their shitty uninformed opinions known to everyone.

>>86345342

>X-Men knockoff

It's not common that you find someone exactly wrong. X-Men ripped off Doom Patrol, not the other way around.

>>86345018
I don't like how it's zoomed in and fuzzy now but at least I can still grab the covers easily with a right-click unlike Newsarama's new site

Fuck every site is trash now

>>86345442
>>86345875
>>86345928
>>86345946
>taking the bait
Truly, this is nu/co/

>>86345311

They're superheroes who 'did not ask for this' in the parlance of our times. Their powers and abilities come at the cost of being disabled in some way or another, and who are often the victim of their transformations, instead of the lucky recipients of them.

Cliff, for example, is a brain in a jar that controls an incredibly impressive robot body. However, he has no sense of touch, taste or anything else.

where is scioli

where

im gonna shoot

>>86345999
That forced tragic aspect is one of the reasons they're so obnoxious. So you've got your 'superpowers as a curse' thing going on, but then they go on the most ridiculous adventures that even the Silver Age would think was going too far, and then take that shit completely seriously. And don't even get me started on their villains. The Brain and Monssieur Malah, a disembodied brain, and a sapient gorilla respectively, and are madly in love with each other. Or the Brotherhood of Dada, who commit fucked up crimes based around the art movement. Again, taken 100% seriously.

And by the way, what the hell is Mento's disability? Did his telepathy make him such an outrageous douchebag, or was he already like that?

>>86346167

>but then they go on the most ridiculous adventures that even the Silver Age would think was going too far, and then take that shit completely seriously.

Because that shit's fun as hell.

>>86346167
Thats why they will never work as a serious team and this run is going for that angle

>>86346045
They launched a book called Super Powers. They might be rethinking his backups

>>86346846
>They launched a book called Super Powers
What?

In the Cave Carson book. His backups aren't going to have their own solicits.

>>86346846
>[citation needed]
Super Powers is supposed to be published as back-up material in Cave Carson.

>>86347425
November Solicits >>86347409

>>86344952
>Doom Patrol
another win for DC

>>86346846
Given that Scioli's still working on the backups, they clearly aren't. It's just two different Super Powers projects.

>>86347517
The branding on YA has been terrible

>>86347479
That seems to be some entirely other thing. No mention of Scioli.

>>86347517
>It's just two different Super Powers projects.

Which is dumb as hell

>>86344952
Well I was hoping it was more than just aliens. This reminds me a lot of the fastfood chain in Invader Zim.

>>86345753
I think the art in the first issue of Shade the Changing Man wasn't that strong either. It can still settle in.

>>86347567
Exactly. Hence
>They might be rethinking his backups

Reading comprehension, bro.

>>86345753
>Isn't this supposed to have backups by Tom Scioli? When do they start?

I think all of the Young Animal comics besides Doom Patrol have backups, just not mentioned in the solicits. Shade the Changing Girl has Gilbert Hernandez

>>86348112
>just aliens
It's never "just" anything with the Doom Patrol.

>>86344952

I like Doom Patrol, I like Gerard Way... I should probably check this out eventually.

>>86348772
sauce?

>>86349505
The SDCC YA panel.

http://www.comicsbeat.com/sdcc-16-young-animals-liveblog/

>>86346167
Plebe: the post

>>86349575
> but the moment Young Animals truly came into being was when Gerard pulled out an old encyclopedia of DC characters and started flipping through. He found characters like Shade and Cave Carson.
You fucking faggot Way! You fucking fagot! You have failed me! This is how you found out about Shade?!

>>86345753
Maybe I'm blind, where do you see John Paul Leon?

>>86350021
He will alternate with Tommy Lee Edwards on Mother Panic. He posted a few WIP panels on twitter.

>>86350065
Neat, thanks for the info, love his artwork. I hope he does an arc of Sheriff eventually - or whatever its successor is called - instead of just the covers.

>>86350152
Doubt it. For one, he is obscenely slow. And secondly, Mitch gerards is DC exclusive for a reson I think.
I like pairing JPL with TLE because they have a similar style and since JPL can only do about maybe 2 full issues/year fill ins then he can either do a one shot special for an ongoing or be put on a title and then you'll get mad when fill ins happen.

like how to you take such a cool idea like Young Animals and fuck it up in every aspect? It's just like DC:You

>>86348342
Backups don't get solicits dipshit.

Skeletor is fighting against Mumm-Ra and then the Thundercats??!!! How Skeletor can be so badass??!! By the way this is the cover of the 3rd issue, it looks epic!

>>86351875
Wait, Simone will write Thundercats comic? When has been this announced?

a bunch of weird ideas and great art does not a great story make. morrison is great way not so much

>>86354023
It wasn't announced but for her upcoming book she said something about bringing the thunder and then something about cats

so either thundercats, catwoman/catman get struck by lightning, or a hero with some lightning theme gets a cat

>>86349486
what do you like about way?

>>86353974
Can't wait for this crossover!!! It looks great! And i love Williams's artwork!
