Why is Diana the most unlikable DC character in recent history?
>>
She isn't at all.
She was unlikable in that 1 issue of Justice League were she attacked & seuxally degraded Hal & when she grabbed Orion's balls & threatened to crush them but it's been a good few years since then & she is been plenty likable since.
>>
>>92521475
Hal please
>>
>>92521398
No, only unlikable in the Injustice universe. Even if you agree that Supes was right, she is just a manipulative bitch.
>>
>>92521398
Bad writing due to lack of research. If you want to see Diana acting in character, go read her book, since this weird not-Xena/Lady Macbeth shit doesn't happen there.
>>
>>92521475
>when she grabbed Orion's balls & threatened to crush them
How was she unlikeable there? If there was anybody unlikeable there, it was Orion, and that made him turn around and be a pretty cool guy.

You can litterally burn in the darkest depths of fucking hell if you think...
> 1.) Anyone who is willing to threaten another person with the worst crime a human can commit against another is respect worthy.
> 2.) If you think threatening to commit the worst crime a human can commit against another is a reasonable reaction to any kind of verbal disrespect (especially one as mother fucking subjective as "flirting")
> 3.) If you think flirting is disrespectful.

Now the ass slap was disrespectful & she should have punched him right then not let it go & fucking sadistically & cruelly kissed him & sneak threatened him WITH THE WORST CRIME A HUMAN CAN COMMIT AGAINST ANOTHER YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT.

You are scum of the fucking earth.

You make Superman look manly and powerful when you show bad ass crazy warrior Wonder Woman being so devoted and submissive to him. Superman becomes the perfect self-insert character since he's such a regular nice dude and even then he's the only one who can dominate this proud and head-strong woman who then becomes totally his. It also makes Superman look nicer because he's pretty much taming a villain in the making.

The sad thing is I now see people saying how much they like "Bad bitch" Wonder Woman, in youtube comment sections. Injustice really needs to fuck off with these type of portrayals. It was okay at first(because beggars can't be choosers) but now it has overstayed it's welcome. Just go back to Good vs Bad and fuck making heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman assholes.

Batman is like the bella swan from twilight. at least the male superhero version of bella swan. mary sues are usually deemed at poorly written characters

this is what a mary sue is

So, there’s this girl or guy. he or she is tragically orphaned and richer than anyone on the planet. Every guy or girl she meets falls in love with her or him, but in between torrid romances she or he rejects them all because she or he dedicated to what is Pure and Good.

The Injustice story has always been leaning towards Batman being the good guy, and I actually find it kinda disappointing when you could have had both sides straddling sufficiently grey area's to make them both seem both right, wrong, good and evil. And sadly Injustice 2 follows the original idea of simply making Batman right and Superman wrong.

Superman isn't rich and he dates and gets married in multiple stories. Name one Batman is evil story, dude is perfect and incorruptible. Even in the Justice Lords story he was the least evil of all of them and even helped JL Batman out.
>>
It's been said many a time but Diana is just not a concept that works in her chosen genre and medium. She can't actually redeem anyone with compassion as is her core message because villains are gonna remain villains.

So all she has left after that is "proud warrior chick" and that's easily turned into "holier than thou turbocunt" under anything but the best writers.
>>
>>92531162

Superman is the world most powerful, important, popular, respected and beloved hero. All the male heroes look up to him and all the female heroines have the hots for him. Superman have dates around. He dates much more than Batman, who without Catwoman would be sexless.

>Name one Batman is evil story

Batman & Dracula Trilogy.

>dude is perfect and incorruptible

Batman is disliked and mistrusted by the majority of the superhero community. Even when he's doing something heroic everyone is shit-talking him and waiting for him to reveal some nefarious scheme that he has brewing behind everyone's back.

Yes, they distrust him only to make him the underdog so his accomplishment of saving the day is more impressive and cool for the kids such as yourself. Batman is a Mary Sue more than Superman could ever be.

Superman has to uphold this sort of image of himself as the best boy for people to look up to him, he works for that admiration of character. Batman is a turbo cunt, a piece of shit to all his friends, a schemer, a madman, but everyone stops whatever they're doing and listens to whatever he says when he so much as has "A plan" All the young heroes look up to him because he's edgy and Superman is a lame-o, How many newbies want to impress the Bat? Even recently Simon Bazz sucked the batcock and he had literally no reason to.

Batman is a fucking sert shit character.

Because writers read "feminist" in her wikipedia intro and assume that means "asshole".

Why couldn't they just have the regular good universe versions of the characters again? Why? Especially when they're focusing so much on the multiverse.

If the movie makes her into a turbocunt (and it might for all I know) you would actually have a point.

Nobody slobbers on Batman's dick. Even his family hates and distrusts him. Go read Detective Comics. It's a shitting parede on Batman. Everyone question him or beat the shit out of him.

The only ones that seem to give respect are Alfred and Superman.

Superman has all the powers in the world and nobody can defeat him, Superman's the nicest guy in the world and all the other heroes turned into envious cunts when next to him, Superman has all the charm and all the women love him. Dude's pure self-insert.

Who are Black Canary, green arrow, batgirl, zatanna? They didn't want Batman to be the good guy to make the others look like shit they wanted Humans vs Gods. You know the whole "god among men" shit that's in the fucking title. Injustice 2 just pick up from what 1 set up. You have to be delusional as fuck to think it was Batman's fault for WW being shit in injustice 1/2 when writers have been making her shit because of Superman for last 20 + years.
>>
>>92532372

Injustice 2 goes out of its way to make Superman sympathetic, actually. Regime Superman was an absolute monster in the first game because there was good universe Superman to counter-balance, but in this new one since you only have the Regime Superman they went out of their way to make him sorta redeemable. That's why there was so much emphasizes on Wonder Woman corrupting him.

>>92532375

She's bad to explain why Superman's bad, not why Batman's good, otherwise she be a redeemed hero like Green Lantern and the Flash, but then if Superman was the only one who stayed bad that would look bad on him, so they made her worse and implied she was the reason Superman was so bad. That scene with her against Scarecrow was for Superman's benefit.

>>
>>92533277

Superman, though, is the ultimate loser's self insert.

In his Clark Kent persona he's a nobody. His niceness and meek personality doesn't draw any attention. But there's another side to him, the Superman, who most people aren't aware of. When he rips his shirt and becomes Superman he shows his hidden confidence and charm making all the ladies fall for him and all the guys respect or envy him. He's also shown to be strong. Super strong.

So he's the ultimate self-insert for losers who wish they were chads and could dominate those strong and proud women that normally ignores them. Showing Superman dominating the fuck out of Wonder Woman, DC's top girl, specially when she's shown as this crazy proud and strong warrior who is completely taken by Superman's display of power and manliness is a super appealing idea.
>>
>>92533375
I think you missed my point. also Kent is not a nobody in all his versions and from that point of view batman is better self insert because he can ironically stand against those born with the privilege of power and often outsmarts everyone, he also has strange interests and does not have to be holsum like superman, anyone fapping to anime will have a hard time picturing themselves as superman
>>
>>92533487

Of course Kent is not a nobody, he's a Pulitzer winning reporter, but compared to Superman he's a nobody.

And Batman can't stand against those born with super-powers. He tries and struggle for it, but every time he's reminded that he's not as good as them either physically or morally. His plans for taking them down always end up in major failure as well.
>>
>>92533552
compared to Superman 99 % of the world are nobodies
>He tries and struggle for it, but every time he's reminded that he's not as good as them either physically or morally. His plans for taking them down always end up in major failure as well.
well that is the kind of mentality I usually see in teen books with a bullied protagonist who lives with his single mom or a grandparent. sometimes smug mental high ground is more important than results, saying "I fought for my stuff while that asshole had it all handed to him" is were the modern self inserting is at. oh you can bet your ass he will find his hidden destiny but that is phase 2
>>
>>92533620

If you're going to count that Superman's also filled with that kind of shit so you can sympathize with him. He's all about how different, lonely and burdened he is.
>>
>>92533667
most of it is by his choice and goes away once he comes out to the world, especially in settings were there is a martian manhunter(someone with real isolation and loneliness) and other superhuman and magical beings that not only let sups find his community but make his own "strangeness" seem insignificant. It only comes back out when he thinks too much about it or has to deal with total retards that call him a walking nuke
>>

>most of it is by his choice and goes away once he comes out to the world

Nah, it never lets up. Not even with Martian Manhunter. The only times Superman think he found someone who's equal with him is when he's with Wonder Woman.

His otherness is all based on his iconography, not his alien nature. That's why he only feels complete when next to another iconic character.

to elaborate, unlike spiderman superman was born with his power so he never had shit kicked out of him for real. until he started fighting superstrong shit or was depowerd by something, which undermines him as a "perfect" insert and is more like a story of a rich kid turning poor (for few months) or having to deal with other rich people. he is also haply adopted so his loss is felt less keenly and his burden is also his choice unlike characters who are saddled with responsibility of all of the red or green. YA protagonist boys rarely make personal choices (beyond the first step) so again not optimal for inserts
>>
>>92533826

>to elaborate, unlike spiderman superman was born with his power so he never had shit kicked out of him for real. until he started fighting superstrong shit or was depowerd by something

Ever since the 80's Superman developed his powers only as a teen. So he was still bullied. Then when his powers kicked in things became worse. He was bullies, but now he couldn't fight back. So this would make him feel useless and different.
>>
>>92533871
>He was bullies, but now he couldn't fight back.

That's so stupid though. All he'd have to do is bait them into punching him in the face so they'd break their hand. No one would ever mess with him after that. It's not like he'd have to throw a punch himself.
>>
>>92533898
I agree that its stupid. hell he could just tell his dad or make evidence to get them punished. I say don't overthink it because its unlikely that in all that bulling no one ever kicked him in the stomach and broke their foot.
hell bulling in shows is always comical

>>92533898
>>92534001

The bullying in there is to show how alienated and frustrated Superman felt as a teen for being different and how the responsibility of being super already weighted heavily on him as a teen.
