So Dr Doom is leading Magneto, Doctor Octopus, Dormammu, Sabretooth (I think?), and Juggernaut to take down the DCU. Frankly, that's not a bad team, I could see them making headway. Who the fuck is the chick with the giant bat though?

Poor Caitlyn, she is just trying to be a functional member of society.

>Doom becomes Iron Man in MArvel
>DC gives us a more real doctor doom who rules over Latveria

B A S E D

>>90525390
If Latveria = Kravia, then I wonder what happened during Earth-Crossover Nightwing's trip.

I don't know if it was intentional but it's a well known here that Marvel civies are fucking idiots and how NotDoom practically says that the people in their universe are idiots makes me think

>>90525386
>Dormammu
I think that's Mysterio.

>>90525493
Can I be the first one to say it?
This comic is shit

That's Gentry right? Havok is how Ultimates Earth in DC let Gentry in and destroy it?

>>90525340
>my parents are dead so I totally feel you bro

>>90525493
>help the people steal it back

What if the people support Havok? What's Vixen going to do then?

This seems like it could either be a critique of Russian expansionism in Eastern Europe or American imperialism, I don't know which.

>>90525289
I just realized, this book is basically supposed to be a Batman vs. Dr. Doom story.

>>90525978

agreed. Ivan Reis art was a saving grace before, but this issue was pure shit.

>>90525978
Hitch's JL is better

With Hitch going for a Morrison feel, this should've been a small scale run like the Giffen era.

>>90525493
Thanks OP, I like it

>>90525380
>the last face you'll see
but he was looking away from him, so the last face he'll see will be everyone else's.

I actually really like the twist of having them legally rule a country.
>>90525493
Not sure how you can help the people steal it back when the people want them to rule.

I just hope that after this first arc we get something different to massive world ending events. Send the team into space to help Lobo with something, go on a crazy adventure in the Microverse etc.

>>90525461
Just watch him, random soldier.

>>90525372
you could easily make one of those "real people vs the internet vs /b/" with Lobo's face on panel 2

Maybe involving more than one board

>>90525411
>Lobo shaves in one panel and grows a five o'clock by the next one

>>90525978
I don't know, expected better but I kind of like the character interactions, but I wished they had a more simple first act, this is a little too much too fast.

Probably. Havok references Thunderer in the last issue and Crusader in this one, which are character specific to Earth-7, the one the Gentry destroyed. The counterparts of those characters on Earth-8, the other universe based on Marvel Comics, have different names, Wundajin and American Crusader respectively.

>>90526765
Did the Gentry ever do a mirror thing or was that just Morrison's Batman that dealt with gazing in the mirror too long?

so why is the main man putting up with this shit?

>>90526808
It's a gig.

so the JL of AMERICA is going to be a covert mission to destabilize an eastern European Nation and depose its reigning government?

yep... we CIA now.

>>90526802
Don't remember anything Mirror related. I do remember that Dame Merciless showed up inside of a painting during the events of The Just.

>>90525469

I thought Lord Havok was Max Lord?

>>90525493

"Steal?" Looks like they were allowed in by the country's laws

>>90526765

Hulk expy looks like a major 'tard.

Major Max

Captain Marvel

Marvel has a format called MAX

>>90527016
And now Lord Havok saw something in a mirror and some time later the Gentry invaded.

Dear God...

>>90525432
MONOLOGUING

>>90525479
>>90525483
In one day Havok went from blasting random people in US to being a dictator you can't legally remove, who somehow immediately brings stability for the region. In one day.

Sloppy writing.

>>90525317
What's wrong with his fucking face?! Did the writers not tell this guy what Lord Havok's supposed to look like?

>>90526024
Well his Earth 8 counterpart tried to let the Gentry in. So it stands to reason.

>>90526829
>Supervillains kill off random American civilians, then teleport to another country that they take over and declare their dictatorship the new law.

Yeah, totally legal. Totally recognized by UN. No questions asked, everybody agreed that it's good that some random guy from another universe took over.

In one day.

>>90526036
This is a critique of Marvel, particularly how the have Doom and the like commit terrorism around the world, before hiding behind their "legal dictatorships" and daring any hero to depose them if they can.

>>90525289
No Reis, no buy.

>>90525340
So are these guys legit supervillains or just androids built by Alternate dimension Walt Disney's robot amusement park, animated by their Dreamslayer ?

>>90525340
>Doctor Octopus
Medusa (he's even named "Gorgon").

>>90525461
What is this, some kind of metaphor

>>90526829
>justice league of AMERICA
I think it's pretty on the nose, realy

>>90526829
no need to get the CIA involved
that's just basic US foreign policy

This issue was a little weird. Too much monologuing, too much standing around during action scenes. Orlando may have bitten off more than he can chew for this arc.

>>90525411
Why does he look like NuBo

>>90526873
He's a Doctor Doom copy.

>>90526984
His name is Behemoth Baby and he wears a giant diaper.

>>90525380
but he's not even looking at you

>>90525440
>>90525449
I hate it when capeshit does this. They just stay standing instead of fighting right away.

>>90525493
Oh, they are going to support rebel forces, the killing of civilians and steal all the natural resources like all good Americans do?

>>90531742
Thank god, I actually bought the single issues instead of waiting on the trade. They butchered so many of the Earth-8 names.

>>90526985
Could Empty Hand be the Dragon In the Mirror? The guy IS corruption.

>>90525289

>>90533356
Empty Hand is the very idea of evil winning. Permanently. So Empty Hand might be the dragon in the mirror but the dragon isn't Empty Hand.

>>90525978
agreed.

>>90525493
They haven't interacted with Kravia people at all, how do they know what they want?

There are some good ideas here but the execution was sloppy on many levels. I really hope it gets better next issue.

>>90525493
>dat Vixen gap
Nice

>>90525978
Yeah
The introduction of the characters was good, I was hyped, but that story is quite boring

First issue i've enjoyed. Just Batman and company fail to stop Dr. Doom from establishing Laveria: the Issue, which is sweet.

>>90525479
#HavokDidNothingWrong

>>90543113
>The introduction of the characters was good
no

>>90546212
The introduction of the characters themselves was good when you take into account the oneshots. Batman's reasoning for forming the JLA still makes no fucking sense though.

>>90528966
They are literally doing Dr. Doom and Latveria "You can't come here and arrest our boss" stuff.

>>90551272
But they'll do it better.

>>90525469
>Might beyond the mirror
...Morrison?

>>90552761
>bring in character from Multiversity
>he hints at other Morrison stuff
Will we get our first look at the Gentry since Multiversity?

I'll read this when they get rid of Lobo and Batman.

>>90528140
>DC acknowledging that Medusa is a villain when even Marvel won't
Noice
