>MIDNIGHTER AND APOLLO #2

Midnighter’s got Henry Bendix in his hands at last—but will he have to let him go in order to join Apollo’s battle against the deadly Mawzir?

>MIDNIGHTER AND APOLLO #3

With Henry Bendix’s trap sprung, it’ll be a long road for Midnighter to be reunited with Apollo—and the path will take him straight through the gates of Hell itself!

>>86754308
Yep.

>>86754307

Supporting minis and other limited works featuring obscure and semi-obscure characters still improves the chances of them appearing more in other books or even getting another chance later on.

>>86754335
Only character i recognise is faust.
Is that top middle guy that faerie creature of avalon from hellblazer.

>>86754343
Those are the guys from hitman right.

>>86755366
Ali-Ka-Zoom was in Seven Soldiers, Blackbriar was in Justice League Dark, Graystone was introduced in Red Hood and the Outlaws, Felix Faust has been around for forever and probably made an appearance in every DC magic-related book.
Prince Ra-Man is a Bronze Age character, don't think he's been used anywhere in a long time.
Not sure about Kulak and Extrano, but probably the same.

>>86755603
Extrano was infamous for being one of the first openly (still mostly implied) gay characters that got AIDS via Hemogoblin the AIDS vampire

He was from either global guardians or new guardians, I forget

>>86755603
Kulak is a JSA villain I think, I remember him from All-star Squadron and Johns Thanksgiving JSA issue

aaaaand now I kind of want to read that.

>>86754307
GAAAAAAAAAAY

>>86755634
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraño

>Outwardly resembling nearly every stereotype of a gay man, Extraño initially wore loose colorful garments and has a lively, jovial attitude. He refers to himself as "Auntie" and usually imparts parent-like advice to his teammates. In reality, he may be the very first openly gay superhero, a distinction usually attributed to Marvel Comics' Northstar who, while coming out a few years after Extraño was introduced, was a much more popular character who existed for ten years prior and was implied to be gay in those appearances.

>In The New Guardians, Extraño helped his team defeat a number of supervillains while trying his best to assist them with personal problems. On one mission in particular, he was attacked by an "AIDS vampire" called the Hemo-Goblin. He was subsequently confirmed to be HIV-positive but it's unclear whether he was infected by Hemo-Goblin or had already been infected prior to his introduction

was gonna pick this up but not into gay shit...sigh another book ruined

>>86754402
You don't think Midnighter and Apollo have officially been seized by the Batman office?

>>86754294
The use of the little panels here to show he can't switch off is pretty neat.

>>86758056
anon what were you expecting?

>>86758056
...I'm not sure what you were expecting from a book that has Midnighter and Apollo as protagonists?

>>86754307
Huh. This is gay as fuck, but I don't mind it. I guess that's what happens when you treat a relationship organically in a comic.

So is Apollo 20 feet tall, or is that train car-head just three feet tall?

>>86758579
Apollo is upright, while the golem is falling down.

>MSG: Let’s talk about that coming back. We’ve heard anecdotally that the first volume of Midnighter has been doing really well in book stores and obviously very critically acclaimed, despite low Direct Market sales. How did the new series come to be?

>SO: Well, honestly, it was very easy. I knew that sales were strong on the Midnighter trade. As authors, we can sign in on Amazon.com and see how all our books are doing — which isn’t the whole market, but it gives some indication. I went to lunch with Dan DiDio and asked if there was a road to doing more with Midnighter and Apollo, because I have more to say.

And he said, “Absolutely there is.”

That’s how it happened. It was a dinner in Seattle and the support of the readers making their love known — more than would have been estimated based on the monthly sales.

Based Didio.

>>86755679

lots of DC editors have tweeted about Orlando sneaking in the most obscure shit. Like having to have google open while reading his scripts

he's pretty great.

>>86754402
Have they said it'll be relaunched as a separate universe? I don't remember that from the release. Might just be like Young Animal, in the DCU but not crossing over a lot.

Apparently that's exactly why he was chosen to do JLA.

>AVC: Your biggest project is still on the horizon: a new Justice League Of America ongoing series. How did you score the JLA gig?

>SO: JLA came about because I’m DC-exclusive, and I have a reputation around the offices for an intense and very detailed love of DC Comics characters. Pitching characters that editors haven’t heard of in years and years that haven’t appeared in decades and decades. That sort of rich love of the DC Universe is why they thought of me for JLA. It’s a book that pulls together a diverse array of characters and interests and settings and explores the wonder and awe of the DCU. That’s the way I feel about the characters and the company. In my mind, that’s why they thought of me to take this book on.

>Pitching characters that editors haven’t heard of in years and years that haven’t appeared in decades and decades.
Why is he so perfect?

>>86760890
So DC finally wised up. Orlando is going to save the League and give us the first well written JL book since at least the new 52 reboot.

It was there in his DC stuff. Just might not be in that deep with Marvel.

>>86762909
Hot gay latino Doctor Strange. What's not to love? Orlando managed to make him great in one single panel.

>>86762909
What if we get a new husbando every issue?

Could this be the greatest mini of all time?

>>86763175
We might, since Orlando said the series will go through the whole history of DC's gay characters.

>>86763265
Taz and Starman when.

>>86757987
Aren't they going to be on the JLA?

>>86763474

They are not confirmed and with Ray on the team I don't know if you double up on light guys and have Apollo too.

>>86760890
Absolutely based.

>>86762880
He knows A LOT about DC.

He just hasn't written for DC in a long time

>>86762909
I have to wonder if any of the other New Guardians are going to show up again. Come to think of it, when was the last time Pieface showed up? I honestly can't remember him in GL at all recently.

>>86763265

Oh, that explains Brain and Mallah, then.

If you were to become a comic writer, which character would you bring back to life /co/?

>>86763743
The Writer.

>>86763743
Most of the character I care about never died.

Pull Chris Kent out of limbo. And Irey West (Jai can come too I guess).

>>86757535
Supergirl just started, give it a chance. I agree that the first issue wasn't anything special.
Also I feel like there's more editorial involvement with those titles. Supergirl is in synergize mode and the Batman shit is a crossover so obviously there are constraints.

>>86763743

I want to see Orlando dig Lyle out of whatever dimension DC banished reboot LoSH/the Wanderers to.

Or just how he's going to include any of the 4+ gay/bisexual LoSH characters in general.

This comic won't make me gay will it?

>>86764101
Question. Does Midnighter's computer work exclusively for combat, or what he desires? I mean, yes, Midnighter wants to stop a guy so his computer simulates the most efficient way to way it a reality. In the case of head or buttplay, could it simulate the best way to bring Apollo to climax, until he decided he wanted to reign him in for a bit. I mean, couldn't it be possible that Midnighter could have sex as well as he fights?

>>86764080
Don't worry, wanting to fuck Middy doesn't make you gay.

>>86764287
It seems to analyze everything, look at the zoom-ins >>86754294 >>86754307

>>86764287
Nah, his computer's function is to warn against possible danger, so it's more like every time he's intimate with Apollo, his brain is screaming at him how Apollo can crush his skull at any given moment.

>trenchkoat

You're a cool anon

>>86764328
Middy will never love you so much that he wants to make you keep cumming until nothing comes out as well as 30 more minutes after that.
Kind of makes you want to spoil the shit out of him in every other way because you could never please him as much as he'd please you.

>>86764462

That puts a whole new perspective on housewife Apollo.

>>86764482
Doesn't it?!

>>86764482
It'd also confirm that Middy is a power bottom.

>>86764462
>post orgasm torture

>>86764544

Semen production was a mistake.

In my headcanon, Middy is a bottom with Apollo and a top with other guys.

It's fun, better than New52 Constantine and what we've seen of Rebirth Hellblazer so far.

Starts off a bit weak, but keeps getting better and better, with the last issue being the highlight of the run for me. Also, the art is bonkers.

>>86766630
You know Middy would use his teeth to bite off, and butt muscles to pich off dicks forced in without permission.
Now, Middy and other Multiplexes raping a Multiplex? That I could see. But Multiplex could be porn "by himself."

>>86764868
Has Marvel actually put implied gay sex in a comic? Or just kissing?

>>86763743
Hitman.
Er, not really. But goddamn it I want more Hitman stories somehow.

>>86759969
It really would be amazing

This is what I kind of hate about Midnighter, there's absolutely zero tension and zero consequences here.

>>86760702
Come to think of it when was the last time we saw that kryptonian werewolf from supergirl rebirth.

>>86770139
... Did you think they were going to kill off the main character in the first issue?

>>86758056
>these characters are gay so i have no intrest in reading about them.
Fuck you.

>>86764963
Gaimans telling of the story would be tough to measure up to.

Oooh that's a damn good casting. Going up there with Tom Hardy as Midnighter

>>86770193
No but it's something that sticks out to me, how the action is by all accounts great but feels like Midnighter is fighting dummies made of straw.

>>86770401
well he does love beating people up, it's just a thing he does. fights that happen off panel are not really meant to have tension, it's the big ones that are more tense

>>86768246
>>86770360
Who could work as both short or long haired Apollo?

>>86754193
Holy shit this would looks amazing in live action.

>>86770469
I'm having a hard time imagining who could play him well, especially with long hair.

Just for some reason it's easier to cast Midnighter

>>86770401
I agree to an extent but it does have the advantage of making important scenes tense because he is getting fucked.

>>86770443
But the big fights are few and far between so 90% of the fights are one-sided curb stomps which normally wouldn't be a problem but for some reason it doesn't really click for me here.

>>86754174
SUBWAY PIRATES?!?! I THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE ONLY IN THE SEVEN SOLDIERS! YES!

>>86762880
Motherfucker, Max Mercury is PROOF of it.

>>86757799
The tail-end of the New 52 run where she fucked off to space school with Emanuela Lupacchino's art was much better than what we have now, not dissing Orlando's work, though, just saying.

That run even fixed the shitty New 52 Superboy, all before he showed up in Teen Titans and both Superboy and the TT book went to shit again. Thank god we're starting over with Jon.

I could actually see a comeback for all the old New Guardians except maybe the Abo who went into the Dream world unless Sandman gets something new.

Waid and Gruenwald would play a trivia game at cons where people would yell random numbers and they'd tell you what happened in the JLA issue.

>>86773407
Sounds impressive.
But autistic.

>>86754335
Extrano? Holy kek.

>>86770469
Don't have my image of the two, but I'd go with an Armie Hammer Apollo to compliment a Tom Hardy Middy.

This was a very fun issue, but it feels more like Midnighter 2 than Midnighter & Apollo. In fact, #2 and #3 covers only show Middy, and the book universe is basically the same of his solo book (in other words, Midnighter-centric).

>>86775087
The next issue will probably be centered around Apollo, at least to some extent.

Do minis come out as trades?

>>86776057

If they sell

>>86776057
Yeah I'm sure it will. Midnighter sold poorly in floppies but did good in trade, that's why he got a mini now.

DC is also rereleasing his 2006 run in trade format in February.

>>86776057
The whole reason they're doing this is because the midnighter trades sold way better than expected, this is basically designed for the trade market

>>86776057
>>86776144
That being said, if you can buy floppies it would be good to support it in that format since Orlando said it could get bumped to an ongoing.

>>86754307
>>86754325
And this is why I dont support gay rights.

Fags always have to shove it in your face about how gay they are. Why cant they be like other normal people? You never see this kind of shit in a straight relationship in comics

>>86776417
This b8 m8? This week's Green Arrow was pretty much an entire issue of Ollie and Dinah shagging.

>>86776451
Are you?

Every single issue of these two always has one page where they show the readers how gay they are.

Call me when Ollie and Dinah are fucking in every issue.

>>86776530
>Every single issue of these two
The entire one issue they had so far?

>>86776530
I think this is the first time they've showed them fucking and we had 12 whole issues of Midnighter before.
We also saw Bruce and Selina fuck in Catwoman 1

>>86776530
>I don't read comics with these two in them
Ellis had them come out with a kiss on the cheek many issues after their introduction, fucking Millar didn't even have any gay shit save the wedding.
Fuck off casual

>>86776451
>heterosexuals make up 95% of the population and are confused/annoyed by stuff they view as deviant

Who would have guessed?

>>86776607
Where did I say it bothered me? You said you never see shit like this with straight couples and I proved you wrong.

>>86776607
Perhaps you shouldn't have read a comic called Midnighter and Apollo in the first place if gay shit bothers you so much.

Writers don't have to take your personal grievances into consideration when they do a comic.

>>86769976
Don't think so, at least not in any of the books I've read. Maybe in Alpha Flight?

>>86764052
I retract the "strongly" - I thought the composition was a bit more implicative if you know what I mean but I misremembered.
I recall thinking, for a long time, that Ellis was just fucking with people seeing gay subtext for lulz.

Didn't Apollo die?

>>86755603
Blackbriar Thorn has been around since the 80's.

>>86777842
When? Did you not read the last series?

This is great!
I marathoned the Authority last week-end and had a blast, I'm glad they have their thing now.

>>86777952
Well in sure he died in at least two parallel words

>>86763743
Uncle Ben, just so I can be more infamous than Slott.

Now with 100% accurate stupid Midnighter haircut.

Honestly though, I really like the haircut. He makes it work.

>>86779062
It's the best of his bad hair cuts

>>86774939
I can see it, he has a baby face.

>>86777842
He died in Futures End.

>>86757535

>Monster Men is mediocre

Have you even been reading it? Holy shit, that last reveal in Nightwing this week has me absolutely rock hard for the conclusion.

Fucking plebs.

Even though I don't think he died, 52/Countdown Pied Piper.

>>86780017
you have pretty shit taste

>>86780085
They also praised Champions and thought it was "relevant without being stiff or preacy" so their opinion isn't worth much of anything.

They are pretty touchy-feely though for people who basically just met

>>86780294
Their opinion is worth how much you're willing to pay them.

Armie Hammer - 6' 5" (1,96 m)
Tom Hardy - 5' 9" (1,75 m)

Tom is a small guy.

>>86786443
For you.

Camera tricks son.

>>86786443
Midnighter should be the shorter of the two desu

>>86787873
Well according to wiki Midnighter is 6'5''. Can't find info about Apollo.

Is Midnighter a top or a bottom?

>>86788328
A power bottom.

>>86788348
I bet he generates an enormous amount of power.

>>86788328
I remember Orlando saying he and Apollo are versatile.

>CBR: Midnighter and Apollo #1 - 9.0

Based Orlando giving DC another critically acclaimed title.

So many good #1s this week, god damn. Plus some shitty ones too, but still

>>86764580
Started doing this when I was 6 without knowing what i was doing. Actually came for the first time when I was 10ish and it scared me half to death. I literally thought I was dying or something. (Pastor's kid, had no idea what cum was)

>>86795992
Same, I did it for the first time by accident. Thought I pissed myself or something.

>>86762880
Because he hates DC now, to the point of having a public temper tantrum on twitter when the first Flash collection was delayed (only for it to be revealed that it was an issue with Diamond.

>>86788459
I'll be in my bunk.

>>86770469
>>86774939
I always think Channing Tatum for Apollo, but Armie Hammer is a great choice, too.

>>86754425
I'm not super hot on Apollo playing housewife and them immediately turning into damsel in distress/bargaining chip in the first issue. (Though he did get to punch a train golem and then punch Middy with his dick, which was great.)
But based Orlando writes the shit out of Midnighter, so I trust that he will make this good.

>>86754140

>>86776144

>>86754140

June actually, seems like I remembered wrong. Still, I'm glad I'll finally have the first 9 issues in physical form.

>complete collection
>only first 13 issues

But to be fair the Giffen arc was an atrocity, even collecting the first arc at all is bad. Would've rather had only the first 9 in this.

I need to know for research.

That last frame makes me think of Miracleman for some reason.

>>86778947
I just couldn't make up my mind if he was just taking the piss or actually going for it.

>>86787988
Apollo is a seriously big guy.

>>86755634

Not that I know of, it's from a photoshoot.

So, this is a Midnighter comic, huh?

As someone who's never picked up his stuff before, it's pretty good. And not as gay as I thought it would be, not that there's anything wrong with that

>>86810238
You should check out his previous 12 issue DCYou run, it's by the same writer. This is pretty much a continuation of that run.
