WHERE IS HE?

Multiversity 2 is really happening right guys?
>>
>>93011059

Shit talking Batman

>I felt I’d really grasped the concept when I saw him as Everyman, or rather as the dreamself of Everyman. Batman is obviously much cooler, but that’s because he’s a very energetic and adolescent fantasy character: a handsome billionaire playboy in black leather with a butler at this beck and call, better cars and gadgetry than James Bond, a horde of fetish femme fatales baying around his heels and no boss. That guy’s Superman day and night.
>Superman grew up baling hay on a farm. He goes to work, for a boss, in an office. He pines after a hard–working gal. Only when he tears off his shirt does that heroic, ideal inner self come to life. That’s actually a much more adult fantasy than the one Batman’s peddling but it also makes Superman a little harder to sell. He’s much more of a working class superhero.

>>93012603

There's a few ways. Seven Soldiers #0 is first and Seven Soldiers #1 is last no matter what. Outside of that it's modular.

You can read them in publication order which is how the trades collect them (this is best)

You can read each mini in full in any order you want (this is second best)

You can read every #1, then every #2, then every #3, then every #4 (this is worst, especially on the first read through)

I'm really interested in how the current state of the UK will influence his work.

>>93013507

I don't think he cares, he's pretty much off the grid.

The only response the shitiness of the DCCU has gotten from him is "I'm past all that dark stuff" or something like that. I think the Big 2 editors rebooted one too many times on him and he just doesn't care anymore.

No thanks. His Doom Patrol had a GOAT ending. They should've stopped right then and there with Jane and Cliff holding hands on Danny the world.

Even tried reading some online articles but couldn't figure out what was actually going on.

Apparently it was written backwards, and the superhero was actually accidentally killed by his son? And President was shot.
>>
>>93023394

Yea it's chronologically moving backwards in time.

Tryhards will come in here and talk shit but they're all lying, no one got it the first read through. Just read through it a few times and pay close attention to the individual details. Morrison never wastes a single line, it all has meaning. You can read it backwards too if you want.

>>93023447
desu I think that's why it's kind of brilliant, even though it's moving backwards in time, it's looks written in a way that it isn't. I tried reading it 2-3 times but to no avail, I'll give it an another go a year later, maybe I'll be matured/smart enough to understand it then.

I actually feel this way with alot of shit.
I end up enjoying things I never liked or couldn't understand first time when I was younger.

A stellar comic with stellar art that should be recognized as one of the definitive Diana stories just like All-Star Superman was to Clark.

It never will be recognized that way because Morrison writes her as the character she was intended to be which is a pretty controversial one. You'll love it if yoiu're not the offendable type.

That was a mini and it's over.

Honestly they shouldn't have sold it based on the Santa thing because it's just a Conan type fantasy / barbarian comic and it was great. I feel like the GRITTY SANTA REBOOT thing sounded like a gimmick and turned readers off.

The art was fucking amazing.

gway's Doom Patrol so far feels like a lot of "remember the Morrison run?" Combined with quirky comedy. It isn't bad, but so far I'm not impressed. I'm hopign that now all the setup is out of the way we'll get a decent story.

That triggered the shit out of me. You can take literally ANYTHING and give it a weirdo Vertigo style reboot and you had to do it to one of the literal TWO books that Morrison already covered?

You don't homage originality by duplicating it you fuckwits. Same reason I'm skipping the Blade Runner sequel.
