Its Superbro

>>91667546
...Honestly I'm really feeling Superbros point here.

and fin.

>>91667595
Wait a sec, is the upcoming event with Mr. Oz and Manhattan actually just a smokescreen for "Superman vs the Fourth Wall?"

>>91667595
One of those Super is Conner???
BTW this counts as Hypercrisis?

>>91667634
Screen cap this, Superman punches his way into our reality. Superheroes will reach into this world.

>>91667582
Superbro is pretty based. The amount of shit he takes approaches zero.

>>91667549
Isn't Wonder Woman basically going through the same thing right now? She wasn't split into two, but she did discover everything she remembers about her life is wrong.

>>91667688
Similar but different. Wondie's problems are seemingly self inflicted, rather than due to outside fuckery.

>>91667655
If you're talking about the guy in the T shirt and jeans that's Superbro.

what happened to Manabooch?

>>91667582
Why is he rejecting it though? As Superdad he gets a hot wife a pretty cool son and all that.

>>91667701
>Wondie's problems are seemingly self inflicted
How is this, please explain anon.

>>91667622
Blaqualand is in TT now?
i guess i'll have to catch up

>>91667655
>>91667713

70s Diana (so Bronze Age Supes)

Earth One Diana (Earth one Supes and Bat?)

the first n52 WW with Morrison Superbro


I can't pick out anyonbe else though, i dont know batman's costume changes well enough

>>91667765
She knew she couldn't ever go home as part of the deal when she left, but knowingly (even slightly subconsciously) allowed herself to believe that she could. This meant that every time she visited home in Nu52, it wasn't actually home, but a deception.

>>91667514
Yeah! Beat the shit out of him Superdad.

>>91667714
Bunn did this issue and the last as fill-in.

Manapul is back next issue.

>>91667864
Superdad VS Superbro is like when your favorite uncles and aunts are fighting
it just sucks all around.
but also

KICK 'IS ASS SUPERDAD!!!
>>91667867
oh, ok, neat

>>91667864
I liked seeing Superbro kick Superdad's ass even I'm a fan of both.

>>91667595
since when can Golden Age fly?

and whats up with not 52 earth 2 superman?

>>91667521
What in the fuck?

>>91667822
Then where actually das she all those times???

>>91667510
>>91667514
neither of these covers are that interesting

>>91667822
Still really unnecessary amount of spite on Rucka's part. Like yeah the Finches tanked N52 Wonder Woman like we all knew they would, but it seems like Rucka went out of his way to trash Azzarello while fellating his prior work (and giving a token handjob to Perez)

>>91667555
I thought that was Spectre for a second.

>literally an entire issue of setup

Thanks, OP.

>>91667595
>mfw most of Dianas are from n52
also I can't for the love of me tell which Batman is which, the only one I'm sure of is 666 Damian in the middle

>>91667555
>feelsman.jpg

>>91667574
Does it threaten his trademark or what

>>91667595
Im right. The universe is mallable since the start. It's dr m work.

>>91667521
Kubo?

>>91667614
I'm glad Manapul is back next issue. His art is just amazing and it should be good seeing him draw the rest o the league.

What happened to Manapul? Did he not want to work on it anymore?

>>91669832
He's back next issue.

>>91669832
Doing a quick google search would show you he's back next month, stop being lazy

>>91669832
He wrote a political/blm issue and DC was like "yeah naw" and brought in another team to replace him for a couple issues (presumably because he didn't want to have to go back and write completely new scripts to replace his rejected one).

>>91667521
Spoiler this!

>>91667672
YES!!!


YYEESS!!!

>>91667622
>Speedforce Deathstroke
wouldnt want to live on that planet

>>91667589
Oh hahaha Fuck you DC

>>91667589
>Is this..what dying feels like
Superbro no

What if Oz is an alternate timeline Batman

>>91667864
Superbro kicked Superdad's ass

bumping for others

>>91667510
Meta: The Issue

Thanks, OP

>>91667574
oh my, just look at the veiled 4th wall joke.

also, the fact that one of these three has made a career out of being rebooted and two of them have literally had recent retcons (again).

>>91667595
since when is 70's depowered Diana capable of flight. that was her martial artist phase.

>>91667510

I like how there's multiple buildup comics and several "aftermath" issues but the special itself was 2 issues of setup and 1 anticlimactic conclusion. This shit has like 10 pages of content and 300 pages of supplemental material

>>91667559
>Even as a dream superbro cares for batman

>>91667579
Need a crop of Bats holding his hands up

>>91670998
Yeah its a little on the nose here that they're getting rid of superbro and his canon.

>>91667589
The fuck does this page mean, does this mean all of Superbro's adventures are gone? But one of Superbro's adventures got mentioned in New Super Man so this issue is a bunch of bullshit.

>>91671106
I mean I'm pretty eure superbro was stronger. Also you think they'll ever address that super nova move superbro learned?

>>91669883
Jesus. He's really a BLM fag? Based DC puts that fag in his place keep shit politics out.

>>91675390
No, it was "the Trinity has to protect Trump while crying about it" issue. Nothing about BLM.
Hilariously enough, something similar happened last and this month when DC accidentally solicited Hitch going full retard with "muh immigrants" in Justice League
>“ONLY HUMAN” part one! Aliens live among us. Sometimes they’re refugees from war-torn planets. Sometimes they’re hidden. Sometimes they’re our world’s greatest heroes. But fear and prejudice threaten their lives when an anti-extra-terrestrial group closes the borders around Earth itself. What is the One Earth movement? And how can the Justice League exist when all aliens are outlaws?
>“ONLY HUMAN” part two! The One Earth movement spills first blood! Green Lanterns Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz are forbidden from using their power rings while Superman himself is imprisoned in an aliens-only gulag! A planet rages as Batman and the remaining Justice Leaguers race to unravel the conspiracy behind the One Earth movement before the world tears itself apart.
I don't know if they ever re-solicited those issues, but it's now an apolitical ghosts arc.
>“AFTERLIVES” part three! Our heroes’ mission into the afterlife goes horribly wrong when the Demons Three trap the Justice League in a hellish realm where they’re haunted and tortured by the ghosts of fallen heroes, dead villains and innocent civilians whose lives they failed to save.
>“AFTERLIVES” part four! With the Justice League locked out of reality, the secret mastermind behind their predicament makes his move on the world of the living. Luckily (or unluckily), the JL is trapped in the afterlife with Felix Faust, who works with the heroes to fight their way out of limbo! The team-up no one saw coming kicks off in this extra-sized epic!

>>91667611
Superman already told Supergirl and Asian Superman

>>91667595

>All these Wonder Women.

When are they gonna fuck?

>>91676207
He said his family knows. He also told Lana in this week's Superwoman.

>>91667555
Is this the first time we've seen his face.

>>91668310
I'm one of the REEing autists that's been screeching that for months. It just seems like hiding the secret in plain green robed sight.

>>91667526
Can I just say that at this point just using the (insert historically quotable) phrase would be more fresh that cutting it off?

>>91674613
Maybe but combined Sups is way stronger so it'll be a while before we see it.

>>91667589
I know that unfortunately he is death... Why repeat this?

>>91667757
>be burdened with kids and a wife
>be single and bang all the super powered hotties

>>91667574
Everyone has been affected.

Jesus christ, has Clark forgotten being two separate people already? He remembers a world before this one. He has the same memory as we do about the pre-flashpoint world. Why is he suddenly so 'umm is this Earth different?'

>>91667595
Hypercrisis is real.

We're breaching the source wall in the next 5 years.

>>91667607
I mentioned that I think Barry and Bruce will be taken out of commission and that Superman and Wally will eventually spill the beans on everything.

Those two are the key. They represent the "old" and the "new", two generations (maybe throw Tim in once they find him) working together to restore order.

Maybe with fate who has yet to be shown in Rebirth IIRC.

>>91679179
Clark Knows that shit happened to him and Mxy was part of that, but he doesn't remember being two people and their lives. Action Comics went into this. The did a quick run down of his life and he pretty much says it checks out with him, but something still isn't right.

>>91679335
This.

Why Barry and Bruce are helming the investigation is weird considering its Wally and Clark who are the survivors of the previous world.

They should be the ones questioning this the most, or at least the ones closest to the investigation.

>>91679354
Wait so he remembered pre-flashpoint in Lois and Clark as Superdad, but now that he's whole again he forgot because of his rewritten history?

>>91679400
Well what I think the timeline runs as is that this takes place just before Batman 21 starts (today). Giving us a reason for Bruce twiddling the button and deciding to bring the second Dick in on it, Flash.

At that point zoom comes in because he is summoned to stop batman and flash from conferring and Barry telling him that Wally experience something similar.

Now Barry is left to figure out why zoom is a burnt corpse and bats is BTFO.

>>91679436
So yes and no. Everything you know happened, expecially the Los and Clark stuff but ignore Convergence.

What you really need to start understand is this Clark was never "pre-flashpoint" superman. This is Nu52 superman, but something happened to Superman before Nu52 started that made us have SuperBro and SuperDad later. This is all a recon obviously because Rebirth wasn't a thing when new 52 existed but...hypercrisis I guess.

>>91679558
Yeah I read it. It just strikes me as out of character that Bruce wouldn't have coffee time with Wally and Clark with Barry instead of just Barry.

Unless Barry planned on involving Wally before Batman 21 concluded?

>>91679593
Yeah weird.

>hypercrisis I guess.

Ha. My sentiments exactly.

>>91679624
I didn't mean to insinuate you didn't rather for other posters to keep up and chime in.

Nobody is aware of what happened to Wally I don't think, and Bruce was the one that wanted to not rock the boat with the rest of the league with some weird reality re-shaping shit.

I think he was calling Barry because he trusted him to keep it hush hush while being able to help him investigate with a separate set of eyes.

>>91667555
I have a theory that Manhattan might actually not be the guy behind all this fuckery, but is still involved somehow.

I doubt his face in this page means anything, but it made me think, what if Mr. Oz is actually Manhattan, trying to actually fix things behind the scenes and is opposing whoever the real big bad is? And he's somehow lost most of his power, which is why he looks grey now.

I have absolutely zero evidence to support this, except that "Oz" could be a shortened form of "Osterman", Manhattan's original name before his accident though my interpretation of Watchmen was that Manhattan might not actually be Osterman but some kind of energy form that used his DNA and memories, like Swamp Thing and Alec Holland, and that's circumstantial at best.

>>91679937
Oh yeah totally, I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page.

If this does take place before Batman 21 then Bruce being hush hush makes sense, but I still find it weird Barry wouldn't bring Wally along just to cover all the bases.

Unless Barry doesn't know this connects to Wally in any way? As readers its obvious but maybe Barry sees the Wally situation as something different than the button? Just typing that out, when Batman calls Barry he mentions the speedforce. It feels off that Wally isn't being involved in the investigation.

>>91680056
I mean, I don't think it's necessarily out of the question that they would have. The majority of Batman 21 took place over a minute. We don't necessarily know that they wouldn't have brought Wally in. Bat's went from thinking he had a minute to Zoom telling him quite the reverse.

I don't remember the solicit but I think it still stands to reason that Wally could show up in Flash 21 next week. Him seeing Barry get BTFO could lead to him sprinting straight to Superman and the league to ask/say "what the fuck just happened?"

Then they will confer about what they know. The league's reaction to being first attempted to be kept out of the "know" by the trinity, really batman, seems to be the topic of discussion next month on this title.

>>91679179
The premise of Rebirth is that New Earth = Prime Earth.

Superman was an anomaly, since he was outside of universe during the Convergence, and thus wasn't rewritten... But then somehow was, after all, with Superbro appearing in the changed Prime Earth, while Superdad was away.

In "Superman Reborn" Superdad and Superbro became a single being (at the same time, after first Wally West and then the multiverse-traveling Justice League revealed that New Earth = Prime Earth, but with ten years of history altered), which fused their histories.

So the new, fused Superman is kind of a confused being. Convergence might as well have never happened for him, as his old New Earth history mostly took over the Prime Earth one, and now the reality is as if he's always been on Prime Earth, but with more of a pre-Flashpoint-like origin story.

Bruce and Diana are thus confused, because to them, after "Superman Reborn", there has always been ONE Superman, one with the fused reality storyline. While Superman still has the memories of both Superdad and Superbro fighting for dominance.

Whereas before Prime Earth Bruce did not trust New Earth Superdad, saying not muh Superman, now it's as if Superdad has ALWAYS been His Clark, the Superman of Prime Earth.

On a meta level, the fused Superman has been noticed to be more like Superdad than Superbro, so Superbro fighting for his life means keeping the memory of his New52 run alive.

>>91680822
>the multiverse-traveling Justice League revealed that New Earth = Prime Earth
This. I'm surprised by how many people missed that reveal.

>>91677729
Beautiful thanks

>>91680028

My theory is still that the New 52 was Manhattan's attempt to reengineer the world of Watchmen as an experiment. Sort of like how All-Star Superman created a world where he didn't exist to see what would happen.

I base that mainly off of the fact that Earth-4 in Multiversity shifted to more heavily resemble Watchmen, as compared to what we saw of it in Final Crisis and other glimpses of the Multiverse before Flashpoint.

>>91681860
>>91680822
It really really frustrates me how many people can't grasp it. As if they're just so stuck in their own headcanon.

This needs to be sticky-ed for fucks sake.

Yeah but Azz's Amazons totally trashed everything that came before.

It's not really fair that people act like un-blacking Wally, getting rid of edgier Superman, and so on are all completely justified changes while fixing the Amazons is "spite". You guys only think this because you have no attachment to Wonder Woman.

Also, "fellating his prior work"? The only things he took from his own run are Veronica Cale and Ferdinand. Everything else is just straight-up a return to pre-Flashpoint. And it's quite ironic that people complain about that as well, considering the most common complaints about Wonder Woman are that "her villains suck and her new villains never get used again" and "she doesn't have a consistent supporting cast" (both things that are not true, by the way).

I mean think about this: would you be OK if they rebooted Superman so that his parents were frightened Christians who kept him isolated from the world, and taught him to be suspicious of people? No, you wouldn't. That's how Azz's run felt to us Wondiefags. It's a fine run in itself, but IT was the one that shit on what came before it, not Rucka's.

I know you Azz fans are not trying to be malicious, but it's quite frustrating as someone who's read every post-Crisis Wonder Woman issue to see folks trying to say what Wonder Woman should be like.

>>91680822
Finally someone who knows what they're talking about.

>>91669807
Aww. Lupa Diana is a treasure

>>91667555

Did Batman just say "number one, with a bullet"?
