So they're not just a Justice League knockoff, but a Super

They haven't done flashy poses yet

>>93604409
can't wait for anther human green lantern

>>93604489
I think it hinted at it being a pseudo Green Lantern using holographic Earth tech in one issue where they mentioned an entire Academy of them

>>93604489
Would it really be a "human green lantern" if the ring is not an actual green lantern ring? This is a slippery slope where you'd start calling heroes like The Ray "human green lantern"s despite just having light powers.

>>93604409
Snek Wondy is super cute.

WW's color is relevant to her nature though, it's not just to have a green member

>>93604555
Indeed.
Well, Alan is an exception since his powers comes from the Guardians anyways

>>93604515
Is the speedster tied to the speedforce btw? I stopped reading NSM

>>93604489

I really hope it would be the Green Lantern from the Tangent Universe which has been on Earth 1 since Infinite Crisis.

>>93604409
Eh WW was green snake before they ever decided to give her a green costume for the team. Omen just decided to roll with the idea of each member using different colors after her.

>>93604619
Avery Ho first appeared in the Rebirth Flash arc. She was one of the only speedsters affected by the Speedforce not to get her powers drained

>>93604619
The speedster actually originated from a Flash rebirth issue. She was one of the people affected by the speedforce storm that was created by Black Hole. So yes, she's a legit speedforce user.

Would 8 be the best number of members for the team since they have octagons as their emblems?

>>93604489
>human green lantern

Why people always bitch about this? It's not like there are no alien green lanterns, i think is normal for a team from earth to have earth members.
Bat-Family is huge but no one complains, without counting the lot of Supermen and Flashes

>>93604742
At least this time that GL won't be American.

>>93604742
There are only supposed to be 7200 green lanterns at any given time.

Earth has 5 of them. Given how vast the universe is, that's an amazingly high number of earth green lanterns.

Not to mention we have 2 pink lanterns and a red one (granted that one isn't human).

>>93604489
DCAU had this one Asian Green Lantern from the future.
One problem, he's from Tibet

we have 7 if you include Alan

6 actually, even 7 if you count Scott

And well, earth do have another lantern technically Volthoom

>>93604812
>>93604832

I dunno about the numbers but beside from Hal and Alan all the others were replacement and first
Also wasnt earth like the center of the universe or at least the place were the life comes from? Sounds like a special place

>>93604832

Earth is the center of the multiverse.

This is Guy you are talking about

>>93604832
Yeah but there are special circumstances surrounding most of them, so only two of them count towards the 7200 at any given time.

It can be presumed there were "reserve" members on other worlds like Guy and John that we just don't see.

>>93604409
Do they even have sentai in China

Will Chinese Aquaman be a mutated gish cause of how dirty the water is ?

>>93605072
They should get someone from the sinestro corps. Someone non-human.

7, as in 7 soldiers. The 8th member is the people of china.

I understand that China makes knockoffs of American shit to sell to Americans or gullible 3rd parties....

But WHY would China have their national heroes be knockoffs of American Justice League?

I mean, I know the real reason is "DC writers are lazy as fuck", but what's the in-comic rationalization for the National heroes of China being rip-offs of a bunch of cultural Westerners?

>>93605089

Interesting idea... but it'd have to be someone with Chinese citizenship atleast. Maybe China owns a fallen lantern.

>>93605189
The same rationale for China to have a knockoff version of everything other people made.

>>93605245
China makes these things to sell to others, or so their poors can have shitty knockoffs.
Since Chinese middle-class has grown, their shoppers are insisting on the genuine article.

That has nothing to do with making your nation's supermen dress up like Western heroes. The vigilantes in particular would be an anathema to Chinese culture.

>>93605189
>>93605298
They actually acknowledge this in the comic.
China's National Heroes The Great Ten (based on Chinese culture and mythology) are seen as outdated by the government while the leader of the Ten, August General in Iron, points out how the Justice League of China reinforce the idea that China is just one bootleg country

Who cares if they are bootlegs when they are BETTER

>>93605189
>Gene Yang is lazy
You ignorant motherfucker
http://www.dccomics.com/blog/2016/04/14/naming-super-man

>>93605189
There's an undertone that the JLA is a threat by way of having America in their name: they are an extension of America.

Rather than suffer vigilantes and/or be ill prepared for when America misuses its heroes, The Ministry of Self Reliance chooses to create and train their own heroes, as inspiration to their people and as countermeasures for Americas heroes.. It's not said explicitly but they even train Batmen in a GOTHAM sim

We just had a storyline of NSM too

What am I supposed to have taken from that?
So he gave him a decent Chinese name.
It's still a re-skin of Superman, of which DC has a wealth.

>>93605189
briefly explained in this page >>93599073

china's insecurity complex at work, they don't want a chinese superhero team, they want a justice league that's better than the justice league.

>>93604832
Earth has six of them and iirc the only one to have gotten his ring (and kept it) is John

>Hal lost his because of reasons and forged one from his own willpower
>I don't remember how Guy came back after being a Red Lantern. Even so Guy is technically an alien so there's that
>Jessica's if from another dimension
>Simon's is some weird fusion of Sinestro's and Hal's first one, so if anything Hal's ring is on Simon's finger
>Kyle didn't get his ring in the original way, he was given his by Ganthet, who presumably came to Earth looking for more Hals. Forgive me if I misremembered this since it's been like 2 decades

>>93604960
There are several who don't count, like Salaak or whatever who don't go on active patrols and members of the Corpse.

>>93605502
I don't Guy has been of alien descent for YEARS and Jessica has a regular ring as Power Ring died or...something I don't recall

>>93605431
He went out of his way to make him as genuine as possible.
He wants to make the comic feel as genuine.
There are references to Chinese culture and controversy within the title.
He himself didn't like the idea at first but realized what he could do with it.
>re-skin of Superman
Nigga, did you even read the book
He's not a Chinese Clark Kent

She could shed her skin and become a new White Snake

>>93606249
That's not how the folktale works at all.

>>93606249

nah, White Snake will be her rival if we ever get the series to live that long.

>>93606086

Because Chinese food is top tier, mong

How long will this series make it? 24 issues? 30?

>>93606319
>Rat and gutter oil
>Top tier

>>93606319
The stuff that Chinese prepare here to cater to Americans is pretty good (while generally being terrible for you).
Actual Chinese cooking is pretty rough.

>>93605024
They already said Omen didn't make an Aquaman

>>93606661
>not enjoying delicious chicken gizzards and pig tongue

>>93606319
Crab Rangoon and General's Chicken are to actual Chinese ethnic food what Pizza Rolls are to authentic Italian cuisine.

>>93606671
Yeah, but you can eat that shit at Soul food restaurants, no need to go to China to eat Poorz Food.

>>93606669
I'm sure after they had to deal with that multi-headed sea serpent, Omen started working on an Aqua-Man

Is this comic any good?
It looks pretty fun honestly.

>>93606710
You travel to other countries just to eat other food?

>>93606738
Unironically the best new character in at least 5 years of DC and probably all of the big 2.

>>93606738
yes there are storytimes up now if you want to try it yourself

>>93606741
I'm saying that you pretty much have to go to China to eat anything like authentic Chinese cooking. The bulk of which is nasty poverty food.

>>93606738
It's a fun teen hero storyline that's blunt about China.
It doesn't glorify or demonizes the country and its people.
It's honest about its faults but doesn't reach it to the point where it presents them as roaches

>>93606784
It's a Disney-fied turd polishing of modern China.

>>93606776
>you pretty much have to go to China to eat anything like authentic Chinese cooking
No you don't. Not at all.

And to clarify, that's fine with me.
You won't see growing poverty and meth addiction figure into Clark's mythos either.

But it's a theme-park view of China at best, that makes the mildest of commentaries on China's problems.

>>93604409
WAIT?! chinese superman?

where'd he get his powers? what of actual superman?

>>93606837
Pretty much any significant metropolis has places.

>>93606895
Yeah I'd presume that the biggest coastal cities would have Chinese neighborhoods, but not really out here near St. Louis.

>>93606884
DC rebooted again and Superman is Chinese now

>>93605357
that's /m/ talk

at least concerning plastic robot models

>>93606884
Chinese government did some experiments or something. I don't know since they merged the 2 Supermans.

>>93606669
She didn't make one YET.

Also she didn't make the Flash of China

>>93606884
New 52 Superman died which resulted in New 52 Lois Lane as Superwoman, New 52 Lex trying to take the mantle out of sincere respect, Post Crisis Superman steeping out of the shadow, and China attempting to create their own Superman using energy residue from New 52 Superman's death

>>93604853
Baz in a cowboy hat is amazing. This needs to become a semi-regular thing.

>>93607058

Basically what happened after the death of superman, but without the weird red and blue supermen.

>>93606570
at some point it's going to change titles to Justice League of China

>>93607058
Why they kill New 52 superman? Why they do it as part of some super new event like Super Secret Crisis? Where is post crisis midrif Supergirl?

Convergence and Rebirth

>>93607152
the source of your ass is your mom but why is that relevant, winston?

>>93607058
How can they use New 52 Superman's jizz if he been readjusted to not have died now?

>>93604409
Is this a giant stab at the Chinese and their inability to follow copyright? Because that's hilarious.

>>93607199
Did you bust a vessel in your brain typing that gibberish?

>>93607058
How did post Crisis Superman survive?

>>93607112
I mean Superman Reborn was kinda Red and Blue Clark and Lois

And Lana is Red Superwoman

>>93604853

Technically there are even more than that.

There was that Russian chick who got recruited by Kyle as he was reforming the Green Lantern Corps. As far I'm aware she never died but simply went kaput when Flashpoint happened and no one bothered to reintroduce her.


There was also Charles Vicker but he left the GL Corps to join the Darkstars and got killed by one of Darkseid's kids. Never really referenced again.

Yes, it's fantastic. You should check out the storytime to decide for yourself, but I think it's definitely worth a read.

>>93607137
As long as Gene Luen Yang is still writing, that'd be even better.

>>93607584
That page is not especially good out of context, so I will continue believing that people liking the new Red Hood book is another ongoing symptom of /co/'s blindness towards how bad Lobdell is.

The Corps has a special rank called "Honor Guard" for Lanterns stationed on Oa. 4 of Earth's 6 GLs are not stationed to 2814, they're Honor Guard. As are Mogo, Salaak, and Kilowog.
