Wont fit in now that the nu 52 costumes are gone.

Because Wildstorm without the 90's is fucking dull

There's a reason why Ellis is doing Wildstorm.

Shoutouts to Preacheranon for that storytime. Gen13 was different from what I expected it to be as a kid. There's actually quite a lot to the characters and how they interact with each other.

Shoutouts to John Arcudi. That stuff that illustrated the generation gap in a more meaningful way between Alex Fairchild and John Lynch to their kids and the youth in general was really impressive.

I wish we could have got more of that before Lobdell and Warren did a number on the series.

Warren's Roxie and Grunge stuff was amusing, but outside of those one shots. Nah.

Also shoutouts to that one anon who said early on that a lot of known artists today did work on the series. When I got to the Gary Frank, Lee Bermejo and Kevin Maguire stuff I was like.
>Sweet. Yes.
Every artist brought their own flare to the character designs too, good shit.

>>91651807
The entire early series was 90's teenagers of both genders being hip and hooking up with each other while getting naked and VERY OCCASIONALLY doing superhero stuff.

The characters included a shirtless bodybuilder kid, a tight little teenager with punk dyed hair and a love of short skirts, a REALLY leggy supermodel teenager who exploded out of her clothes, and a nudist Native American bisexual teenager.

If it were made in the 00's they would have dropped all the pretenses and just had been about FUCKING because that's basically what it was about.

>>91651396
You know, I've had actual ideas for fitting Wildstorm into DC, and DC Entertainment barely even TRIED to grasp the basic themes of the books and characters they used.

The initial launch of the nu52 was such an unholy cluster fuck; for every thing with potential there was something else wasting it.

.....I kinda want to start posting images of the Gen 13 chicks.

They kept SAYING that Rainmaker was a lesbian, but she sure as fuck liked showing off for whoever wanted to watch in the original series.
I think she was basically an exhibitionist at heart.

That was pretty much my takeaway.

I think she liked to be wanted but didn't want to commit to anything, so she told people what would throw them off.
Then when she got drunk enough Bobby suddenly made it on her list until morning when she resumed her usual look-don't-touch behavior.

I feel like Gail Simone's reboot of the series was kind of admitting that the original thing was just low-key cheesecake by revealing that they WEREN'T created to be superhuman weapons but instead were created to be superhuman sex toys.

Grunge? He was a relatively short muscular Dudebro who wanted to fuck every single one of his girl teammates except the one most thirsty for his cock. Primary source of comic relief, but his powers we're actually pretty useful because he was basically absorbing man.

Simone's re-write of him was a little more interesting; he WAS a Dudebro, but it was an active choice on his part. He was highly intelligent and had a photographic memory, but the crushing weight of social expectation to excel academically got so bad that he just dropped out and did whatever the hell he wanted because it was legitimately easier to live that way.

In her reboot of the series for the first half they assumed they were meant to be superweapons as per the original.
About halfway through it turns out they were created to be sex toys and much of their lives were crafted specifically so they'd develop a personalities ideal the person "paying" for them by fitting into different archetypes.

One of the key themes of Simone's series seemed to be about how kids always have identity shit thrust on them by their parents (in this case metaphorically the people controlling their lives) and are forced to both live with it and find new ways to express themselves anyway.
It actually wasn't a half bad theme because I'm sure ALL of us can attest that it's something that actually happens in real life, it's just that the actual superheroics part of the comic ended up being the least interesting part overall.

>And I thought Lobdell was phoning it in with the hypno-lingerie thing.
Lobdell has been phoning it in for over twenty years.

I guess I'll have to see it before I can say anything.
Something about a super mail-order-bride program seems ill thought out.

>>91653728
It made no sense to me either, honestly.
It fit the theme of course, that children ultimately end up deciding who they want to be with or without parental guidance, but it didn't really make too much sense in the end except for adding more sexual themes for a lady who likes writing sexual themes in her comics.

Simone usually writes decent characters and character interactions (used to anyway), but the actual plotlines themselves tend to be on the thin side I've noticed, especially where Gen 13 was concerned.

why did Jim Lee adopt two young women instead of little kids? Isn't more the norm to adopt babies?

>>91651396
It's a different generation, one Gen13 wouldn't fit into.

And no one wants to see what the Gen13 of our generation would be.

>>91655248
>why did Jim Lee adopt two young women instead of little kids? Isn't more the norm to adopt babies?
it is, but that leaves kids aged 2-17 without parents

he married their mom

>>91655333
he married his wife in like the 90s. why would he only now be adopting them? I think he may have just misused the word stepdaughter - because I don't think those are his or his wife's biological kids
