I've been waiting so long for a "THIS YEAR ON ___ page from DC.

Action Comics: >>89751975
All-Star Batman: >>89752303

>>89752284
Ray is cute, cuuuuuuuuute.

>>89752274
seriously we better get some booster and ted on this book i dont care how stupid the reason

>>89752310
Interesting to see that Bats is sticking around. Didn't know if he'd be a temp till the book got speed
Though this does seem like it would have been a good Nightwing JL if they wanted to get him away from the Titans

this isn't terrible it's more like aggressively bland and mediocre

>>89752325
Booster and Ted would be cool.

Oh hey Ryan doesn't have his suit yet.

Gotta say this felt like a very typical Rebirth issue so I'm not gonna fall on it yet but Orlando still has a problem with character voices. As the book goes on hopeful it clears up

>>89752236
>Wi-Fi traveling
Updating Atom's phone traveling, neat!

>>89752345
He is never leaving the Titans unfortunately.

>>89752252
>ray is gay

Really? I guess I should've read up on him lately.

>>89752415
Should read all of the JLA one-shots that came before this

>>89752243
never thought I'd get a touching moment involving Lobo of all people

>>89752265
Roxy is my waifu

>>89752415
His backstory makes it a bit weird given that his childhood was a bubbleboy like

>>89752260
Not crazy about the white on his costume

>>89752228
THICC

>>89752243
I havn't read much lobo but is he talking about fraggin his planet or something else?

>>89752274
Lobo's the backup.

If the League gets in over their heads, this is a guy that fights Superman.

But he's also a piece of shit biker scumbag, so he's "relatable" and looks about as human as Killer Frost.

>>89752265
I don't understand what kind of catfish power she's using

>>89752310
I Like it, a very rebirth issue with just introducing everyone and getting the gang together, but it looks promising. Its stupid tho that they have lobo on a team when batman keeps harping on its a team of "human mortals" lmao although im glad because he is the best part of the team.

SISTER?

I look forward to the science shenanigans issue with Choi and Lobo.

So Lobo is basically playing the same role as he did in L.E.G.I.O.N. Figures. Only real problem is that Bruce is no Vril.

>>89752212
Hey Love is Love graffiti.

>>89752265
Manhattan reference!

>>89752310
Is that Not!Captain America's shield as he fights the upcoming Not!Doctor Doom?

>>89752346
That's Orlando in a nutshell

>>89752154
Maybe it's because I haven't read a comic in a while but does anyone else find the lack of pacing, characterization and plot at all revolting?
Ivan Reis's art is the reason I read this but even he couldn't save this from being an awful piece of storytelling in every respect( aside form the visuals).

>>89752265
>Roxy Rocket
ayyyy, nice

Orlando just doesn't really know how to make a book interesting

>>89753272
Yeah, it doesn't help that he's being given the synergy book too.

>>89753284
>synergy

Oh, you're that shitposter.

>>89753250
What do you expect from a first issue where they expect you to read other comics to get the low down?

>>89752293
>The world needs heroes they can KNOW, not gods, to inspire them--show them THEY can be heroes.
Morrison on suicide watch

I guess Batman wants to show the world that anyone can be a superhero, even if that person is an ex-con or a degenerate or even a just plain terrible person.

Is Orlando capable of writing anyone other than Midnighter? That book rules but this is bland

>>89753320
>or a degenerate or even a just plain terrible person.
LIKE US! YAY!

>>89753322
His Supergirl is pretty bad too so it's not a team thing like some writers suffer from.

>>89753320
so what's the difference from the normal Justice League

>>89753301
I expect something substantial. Fuck superhero comics, they expect people to pay for this fuckin shit?
DC sales surging, positive buzz around rebirth titles, favourite artist back on a monthly title and issue number one is a montage of team members joining in the most mundane fashion and then a quick conference. Riveting stuff.

>>89753350
Welcome to #0s/Rebirth issues. Try again in 2 weeks for the actual book

>>89753349
Ennis pls

>>89752212
Besides Lobo, half of the team has super-powers, so what is a "mortal" for him?

>>89753418
they are humans that can easily die

>>89753418
Batman thinks the word "mortal" means "someone who makes really poor life decisions".

>>89752212

>freezes Superman dead in his tracks
>mortal

Thanks op for the storytime.

Batman can justify all he wants but this team makes no sense. DC is just using this comic to introduce a more racially diverse and politically correct team while slapping the name Justice League and sticking Batman in it to make it more appealing to readers.

>>89752228
Could these two fuck already? I understand why they avoid Harley Quinn and Lobo fucking but these two should just go at it.

>>89753537
Aka Batman and the slightly older Outsiders

>>89752429
>>89752591
As a child Lobo was one of the best scientists of his entire race. He engineered a virus that exterminated his entire species besides him.

Weirdly enough, Lobo is the smartest and most educated person on this team.

I'd love to see a comic where Harley tries to date him but he instead talks to Ivy about genetic engineering and space Dolphins.

>>89753563
Ollie isn't a cuckoo quite yet, even if he willingly takes Dinahs dick

>>89752228
I skipped JL vs SS, what on earth does Batman have on Lobo?

>>89752310
Oh man, I hope this book has some JSA hints

Last issue of HJGLC kinda had a "this year in" page

>>89753250
Pretty much every rebirth issue has been middling setup and the actual first issues were better so I'm hoping that's the case here too

>>89753596
Wasn't that background from Starlin's Stormwatch? Kinda surprised they're sticking to it

>>89753320
>even if that person is an ex-con or a degenerate
odd given that this is the same batman who spent most of JL vs SS telling Deadshot that he'd never be anything but a killer ...

>>89753411
>>89753349

He's right, In The New 52 Johns whole deal was showing that the Justice League was a dysfunctional team full of edgy egotistical youngsters that had trouble getting along even after 5 years of knowing each other.

>>89753296
Lobo is gonna be in the DCEU
j-just you watch

>>89753596
Ayy thats actually interesting, lobo character just got way better then.

>>89753707
Starlins a boss of badass cosmic characters

>>89753741
His Stormwatch was pretty rubbish

>>89753604
What is Ollie going to do, fight Lobo dicking his girl while Harley is jumping onto his cock? It's one of those weird polyarmous things, all of them are Libertarians so it should not be a problem if they all act like adults.

>>89753728
>Lobo is gonna be in the DCEU
Given the current popularity of GotG/Deadpool and the fact that SS made bank entirely on the strength of the trailers and the fact people wanted something that was FUN (rather than grim derp); I could see it happening.

But I'm not sure that the Lobo you got would necessarily be the Lobo you wanted.

>>89753707
Both Lobo and superman are the last sons of their planets. The difference is superman fled his plant being destroyed, Lobo was the cause of it's destruction.

>>89753692
Liberty Belle is pretty mucheap confirmed JSA hints

>>89753772
Fifteen minutes of a rampaging Superman being stopped by Lobo putting a fist into his face and knocking Superman around a bit would cost anyone making a JLA movie five million and earn them ten times as much in sales.

>>89753711
>odd this is the same Batman who works with Clayface in Tec and Baz in JL

>>89752265

Why cant Vixen and Cyborg just trade places

>>89752195
Did Ollie and Dinah break up again? I've lapsed in reading GA, or is she just taking care of stuff in her city?

>>89753596
I remember Slobo in Young Justice being the mechanic for the Super-Cycle and having to focus more on his brains and engineering skills than most Lobos since he was a genetic defect

>>89753818
>works with Clayface in Tec and Baz in JL
Sure, but SS vs JL was the lead in for this series (where he also decides to let Killer Frost out of Belle Reve because reasons).

That's some Marvel Tier character consistency, that is.

>>89753840

Seatle is Ollie's city. Dinah is from Gotham.

>>89752243
FUCK YES

Someone remembered that Lobo does Science. Good call Batman.

>>89753707
That's been Lobo's backstory since the Late 80's I want to say

He is the Last Son of Czarnia because he killed all the others, I also want to say that the virus he created to kill all of his people also supercharged all his powers like strength, durability, and regeneration to the ridiculous levels he has now

>>89753789
Liberty Belle isn't on the shield, that's Miss Liberty

Who Wonder Woman disguised herself as at one point in Byrne WW iirc

>>89753759
oh
I've never heard of it

>>89753812
this.

>>89752284
Interesting that Killer Frost worries Lobo.

>>89753985

She suckered the life out of Superman. Of course Lobo is wary of her.

>>89754014
if she makes it really cold, everyone will think he has a little penis

>>89753942
D'oh, thanks for that...I just find it so demanding for her to be on this team, work with the Birds, and be linked to Ollie. She must be exhausted

Gotta love the reference

>>89754021

Well, i don't know how things are know with The New 52/Rebirth since Birds of Prey was a mess before, but i know that pre-Nu52 that Bruce and Dinah knew each other from childhood - not well, though - and that they respected each other a lot. Bruce not only respected her as an old friend, as a better martial artists, as a survivor for all the shit she went through, but also because Oracle respected her.

>>89754021
she's kinda the best girl in DC if you think about it
Wonder Woman is kinda confined to her own little Rucka's lesbian fantasy world
Harley Quinn has her memeverse
Dinah is holding everything down

>>89753845
>>89753812
>>89753772
>>89753985

15 minutes of Lobo on screen punching Superman and/or Wonderwoman as well as five or ten minutes of set up would cost about five million dollars.

The movie would get back 50-75 million just for those scenes. Especially if you had a batman/Lobo conversation for about seconds on screen.

>>89754014
Amusingly, they keep implying that Lobo still has his red lantern ring with that cross on his neck.

Jesus...

I don't know if I'm in a good mood or are you guys in worse mood than usual because I thought this issue was promising and I liked what I saw from the team.

DC has been really good this week so far.

>>89753674
Batman saved Lobo from Max Lord's mind control by blowing his head off. So Lobo said he'd do one job for Bats. Joining this team was the job.

This was fucking horrible.

>>89754025
Good Catch

Black Canary used to be the most well-connected super-heroine in the DCU.

Through her father - Larry Lance - she was connected to Jim Gordon and the Gordon family as extension.
Through her mother - Dinah Drake - she was connected to Tim Drake and the Drake family as extension, as well the JSA because her mother acted as the original Black Canary on the team.
Through her mother's flower shop in Gotham she was connected to Bruce Wayne, who used to buy flowers there for his dead parents.
Through her training as martial artist she was connected to all the DCU top martial artists - Batman, Wildcat, Lady Shiva, Bronze Tiger, Richard Dragon and so on.
Through her life as super-heroine she was connected to the JSA, JLA and JLI.
Through her relationship with Green Arrow she was connected to all the Arrow family and his extended cast.
Through her time in Birds of Prey she was connected even further to all the Bat-Family and other super-heroines.

I miss all those connections, man.

>>89754211
Is he going to take off after the first issue? Seems like that would count

>>89754025
>Lobo is Guy
>Vixen is MMH
Who are the rest?

>>89754280
Batman is Batman.

>>89754269
I hope that Batman steps back after a few arcs and hands the reigns to BC.

>>89753870
If you read the Suicide Squad series, in the Deadshot backup you see Batman giving Deadshot another chance and he throws it away and tells Batman he doesn't deserve it.

>>89754293
I don't know. I like having Batman in the team.

>>89754273
He's a Thrill chaser. Probably more entertaining for him to be on a League, rather than bounty hunting.

>>89754293
No fuck off. Black Canary is nothing but a glorified C Lister and she does not deserve to star in 3 titles at once.

>>89754293
>>89754308

Batman being on the team give the opportunity for Batman and and Black Canary to re-develop their friendship while using that connection hopefully to re-develop Batman and Green Arrow relationship.

>>89754293
That would be nice

I hope Batman fucks off or just sticks to the background

>>89754320
Black Canary is best DCU girl, sorry about your shit taste

>>89754293
>>89754308
See
>>89754280
Vixen will be the one to take over as leader with Black Canary acting as Captain Atom, the teams voice of reason and maturity

>>89754308
I feel like he just ends being in everything, and while I like him, I feel like this roster doesn't have the star power to stand up to him. It ends up being Batman+ C listers.

>>89754324
Batman develops his connections when he guest stars in everybody else's fucking books all the time

>>89754347

Batman being in these types of teams is a good thing. This is pretty much the 80's JLA again.

>>89754363

Not, in the Nu52, no.

>>89752243

Damn, this is pretty solid. A more nuanced Lobo than I'm used to seeing, and dipping deeper into his characterization than the paper-thin treatment he usually gets. I'm liking this more than I thought I would.

>>89754347
He is in "everything" but he is nothing because he gets constantly sidelined for others.

Great, another example of heroes being unreasonable and swinging first

>>89752212

What the fuck is she even talking about?

>a different team. Mortal, not gods.
It takes a special kind of retard to unironically believe the "DC is gods pretending to be humans and Marvel is humans pretending to be gods" meme.

>>89752243
Really? So quick to dismiss him? Even though he's recruiting former villain and mass murderer KILLER Frost and The Ray that's only been active for 2-3 months at best? and then Lobo vouches for the guy?

>>89752252
>I ain't asking yer opinion
Is that Batman's dialogue? Because it sounds NOTHING like Batman. And if it's Lobo then it makes no sense. "You're not. He is. Kid's old enough to make his own mistakes. I was. I ain't asking for yer opinion" makes even less sense.

>>89752252
He saved the mayor? He's a kid! Whatever
What kind of dialogue is that? what the flying fuck? And how does he know he's a kid? he's just a ray of light traveling at super sped above the city.

>>89752260
>I'm Ray Terill
He says to a complete stranger he just met 3 seconds ago. Couldn't you just say "I'm The Ray?"

>People need heroes like them. Human
And then Batman recruits Lobo and a guy that lived isolated from the world for 90% of his life. How are these guys more human than Superman or The Flash or the Green Lanterns?

>>89752278
Bitch needs to be begged?

>>89752284
Generic banter between the members of a newly formed team that don't see eye to eye. How original


This is godawful.

>>89754338
Pleb taste.

>>89754347
>he just ends being in everything
He's in Batman, All Star Batman, Detective Comics, Justice League and JLA. That's 5 titles for your most popular character. And then you have Black Canary in Green Arrow, Birds of Prey and JLA.

>>89754506
He's also in Trinity.

>>89754479
you're a fag

>>89754479
wow. you're the worst kind of poster.

>>89754506
first three shouldn't even count since those are Batman titles to begin with

>>89754526
>>89754531
crybabies detected

>>89754550
Tec is an ensemble cast

>>89754564
oh yeah, I forgot Tec is a Batwoman title

>>89754479
>Really? So quick to dismiss him? Even though he's recruiting former villain and mass murderer KILLER Frost and The Ray that's only been active for 2-3 months at best? and then Lobo vouches for the guy?

he dismissed him because he was too young and he doesn't want to put kids/teens in danger despite what memes about Batman say

>>89752274
he obviously means morally and in the conmen man's perception. or maybe the writer is a retard who knows

>>89754590
...and then he goes out and recruits Ray who's even younger than Ryan...

>>89754607
Lobo's argument must have really changed his mind

>>89752310
is that the monk with frost?

>>89754660
Which is silly because Ryan said he was working with Ray and he was friends with him, he sees all the research, he sees him using the bio belt but he thinks "nah, this guy doesn't deserve a shot, he's too young, now let's get out of here and recruit that guy that's even younger than this Ryan kid" but then Lobo says "Give this little guy a chance lol" and Batman changes his mind.

>>89754698
To be fair the fact Lobo doesn't immediately trash talk him like he would a lot of people says a lot.
I want a Lobo/Ryan bromance were Lobo teaches Ryan to man/hero up

>>89754753
>says a lot
No it doesn't. Lobo likes to dick around.

>>89752212
You cant get closer to the word "immortal", when youre Lobo.

This is why this board is so bad.

But, he is Batman, I mean he already knows right? Probably he is ok with that as long she able to contain herself.

I'm confused... who could be throwing Lobo out a window?

Well, if you read the Lobo run in the 90s, you will see some bastiches, who are atleast just as strong as Lobo, but theyre...well..aliens.

The bikes on that roof are just like Lobos bike, alien-bikes, so I guess, that it is some Bar for people of his kind.

Pretty solid first issue. Except for all the

DESTINY CONFIRMED

KILLER FROST IS DEATH?

>>89772375
Probably not, I mean she has been pushed a lot lately so she probably will be here for a long time.
I mean, she will be here at least up to the release of some movie with her in it (probably the second Suicide Squad???)

>>89772847
