I haven't read enough Supes, what's a single good run I can read?

>>89902408

This comic only works if Superman is bluffing WRT killing the Joker. Otherwise, it's just pointlessly edgy.

>>89904261

Has there ever been a "What if baby Kal-El landed in Ancient Greece/The Roman Empire?"

>>89905664
The lil leg kicks will always get me.

>>89905750
"Hey. Cut that out."

/co/, if Superman came to your house and started talking shit about you how long would it take you to kill yourself?

>>89907488
But he would never do that. He's a good man.

>>89907488
Well Lex is said to be smart enough to convince someone to kill their self in half an hour and Supes is smarter than him.

>>89907488
I could only see this happening if I was horrible enough person. If I tried to kill myself Supes would try to talk me out of it and try to set me on the right path.

>>89907488
I would assume that he is being controlled and wouldn't take offense. Instead, I would offer my help, like he would do for me.

Fuck off with Injustice shit.

>>89908704

>>89912378
I get your sentiment but it was more than just one page. Her psychiatrist is shown on the phone with her earlier in the issue and the meaning overall is enhanced by the fact that Superman was generally busy that day.

THROW THE FILTHY SLAV INTO THE SUN FAGGOT!

Guys are there any comprehensive recommendation lists for post-Crisis Supes? I didn't get into DC stuff until near the end of New 52 and now I want to know more about the current Rebirth Supes.

Should I just read everything from Superman Vol 2 up through Flashpoint?

>>89917288
http://comraderecs.tumblr.com/post/18865609991/dc-comic-recommendations

three different images with recs for Supes, hope that helps

>>89917288
For Superman there was like a full decade of constant crossovers in the 90s. It's not really worth wading through unless you already have specific interest in doing so.

However I do recommend reading the Johns and Busiek runs that start up after Infinite Crisis. They have one crossover arc at the beginning (Up, Up, and Away) and then continue into the Action Comics and Superman ongoings. I'd say you should stop with those runs around the time New Krypton starts up (unless you find that you want to read it, wasn't awful but felt like I wasted my time).

>>89905152
For some time this incident remained a disgraceful blot in Slade's personal record, tentatively chalked up to ingesting a minor dose of neurotoxin and hallucinating. When he realized that Bruce Wayne was obviously the newly emerged Superman he was happy to reclassify it as an unavoidable intelligence failure.

>>89912171
Pretty sure everyone agreed on that a long time ago.

It had a massive impact, and Reign of the Supermen was a fun ride (and also had a lot of impact that can still be felt today), but the story itself and even the climatic battle were pretty bad.

>>89917186

>>89915128
From the games? No. From the comics sorta. She was forced to fight superman and break his arm. But I guess her blowback is that even though she wanted super dick, he didn't want her. But she really didn't get any "real" punishment for what she did other than being expelled from the amazons and being stripped of her title as queen and what not.

>>89917969
He does have a problem writing comics though, mainly in putting in far too much dialogue. He was horrible when he started doing comics, Rising Stars was one of the worst cases of WORDSWORDSWORDS I've ever seen. Sure, they were good words but he needed to get rid of maybe 75% of them.

>>89903163

>>89921951
Because you touch yourself at night.

And honestly why MoS and BvS aren't amazing, Snyder did have a few inspirational moments.

>>89907012
>I don't understand, this Superman isn't constantly being compared to Jesus, brooding about helping people, or killing.

Comparing Superman to Jesus is a downgrade. Jesus offers salvation in the afterlife but Superman is an avatar of hope in this lifetime where the people of his earth need it most.

Which would you rather have, a promise that your miserable life will be rewarded with something no one can prove has ever existed, or a reminder that it's important to hope and work to make things better?

>>89903303
That's odd... Pretty much exactly the Superman of the comics. I will not entertain the baseless opinions of those who don't even know the fucking comics.

Years later a figure breaks into Stately Wayne Manor.
As Deathstroke The Terminator creeps down a shadowy hallway he draws forth a glowing green dagger, and as he lunges towards the silhouette of Bruce Wayne he yells triumphantly-

Later an unmasked Slade Wilson sits atop a building ledge, holding his bruised and battered face in his hands, after a moment he looks towards the night sky and screams in frustration.
>I JUST DON'T GET IT!

Nothing good happens to Deathstroke when he tries to kill Bruce Wayne.

>>89903782
It's kind of funny. Here we see Superman telling Wally "If you ever need to talk to someone who understands I'm here for you" and in the very next issue of Titans Wally's going stircrazy because he doesn't know anyone or have anyone to talk to.

>>89927996
Well, in the comic's defense, Clark got to bring over not only a wife, but the son Wally didn't even know he had. Meanwhile, Wally lost a wife, two kids, and around, what, ten years of growth and development?

That's gotta sting.
