I really enjoyed Justice League 3000, and I feel kinda cheated once they canceled the series. It seemed to be heading in a really interesting direction, but then they just started ticking down the list, promptly killing off all the characters with penises in quick succession and then fizzling away.
Seriously, what was the fucking plan with Booster and Beetle?

Others I enjoyed from New 52
>Earth 2
>Larfleeze
>Superman/Wonder Woman
>Batman Beyond
>>
>>95340232
>Superman/Wonder Woman

Solid book but it seems funny in retrospect that DC was so intent on pushing their relationship that they gave them their own comic, and now they've just quietly retconned the whole thing
>>
>>95339415
Morrison did that to Shining Knight years before you stupid pleb. And its basically jusr Mulan, stop being a faggot.

I liked Frankenstein and Omac. Nothing else held my attention.

Oh no no no I didn't say it wasn't a steaming pile of garbage left in the sun, I just said that out of everything I followed of Nu52 RHatO was a guilty pleasure

All those new series they took a chance on, and they never even stopped to consider a New 52 Ambush Bug comic.

Thank God for that.

Swamp Thing
Animal Man
Wonder Woman(Azzerello's run)
Omega Men
Dial H
Frankenstein, Agent of S.H.A.D.E.
Forever Evil
The Multiversity
Would not recommened Batwoman(J.H. Williams III) and The Flash(Manapul) other than just for the art, since the writing was boring.

Weren't there two separate Swamp Thing ongoing in New 52 or am I crazy?

There was more stuff I liked in that one small year of DCYou than in the five whole years of New 52. Not everything was absolute garbage during New 52, yeah, but it was also really hard to find something that was exceptionally good. I'm trying to think of stuff from New 52 that I loved, and the only thing that comes to my mind is Dial H, an even that I don't love that much aside from the first 6 issues, because after the first arc, it felt a bit rushed, which makes sense considering it wasn't selling well at all, and they knew they had to cancel it soon.

But in DCYou, we had Prez, Grayson, Midnighter, Superheavy, Lois & Clark, Final Days of Superman, Darkseid War, Omega Men, Rossmo's Hellblazer, Martian Manhunter (Rob Williams' only good work, I think he fooled us to thinking he's a good writer, just because of Mister Biscuits), Titans Hunt, Batman & Robin: Eternal, Legends of Tomorrow (Only Sugar and Spike was great, but still, it was great).

Did you ever wonder why Ultraman would be more resistant to magic than Superman? Same goes for Superboy Prime, why do evil versions of Superman get to be more resistant to magic?
>>
>>95343678
I think it's easy for us to forget about the crappier parts of the New52 not called Red Hood or Teen Titans now, like all of that Wildstorm integration, and whatever the fuck Simone was doing in Firestorm and The Movement.

DCYou was a creative time, and it bombed hard.

Morrison's Action comics. The only time Superman had a great run since the 70s and it won't be replicated anytime sooner. It was only possible because Didio begged Morrison to write Action Comics.

Every bad writer is writing poorly for rebirth. It's hardly only Williams. He was even burdened with synergy.
>>
>>95345240
This. Superboy Prime came from a universe that was apart of a multiverse that was completely destroyed. So the magic that existed in his universe can hurt him, but it no longer exist.

Not sure why Ultraman has it.
>>
>>95339367
>>
>>95346823
only Yang, Lobdell, Priest and Percy are doing anything fun

>>95346823
Yeah, I'm not going to blame Williams for Synergy Squad ducking. He doesn't even have an artist on that, it changes every arc and despite the fact that they only comision a few issues from an artist they still didn't go out and got great but slow ones, just a sea of mediocre.
That said, issue 3(?) was really good and the backup with Digger was fantastic.

>>
>>95347382
Lobdell only wrote the biggest franchise in the world during the peak of comic popularity, one of the best teen series ever, the best superhero event of all-time and top 3 book of Rebirth
editorial mandated New 52 messes are not his fault and shouldn't be judged for anything during that disaster, plus his TT is just as stupid and character destroying as Johns' run. Remember making Connor a moody faggot, Bart lost his fun and ideals, Tim because an because unlikable and Cassie a slut.

>>95339367
Rebirth is a mess too, websites just aren't quick to jumping at their throats now. Back in new52, a title having a crappy fill in artist was worthy of resetting the counter, now it's a-ok. Garbage titles like Cyborg being kept alive for no reason, messes like Superwoman existing in the first place and a writer change that went unnoticed(if this were new52 people couldn't stop talking about what a mess it is). Rebirth unironically has Dan Jurgens as one of their big gun writers.

they gave me a Bloodlines mini so that makes the New 52 awesome in my book

No because the ending was a rushed piece of shit. And it was rushed to an ending band a return to the status quo because of Rebirth.
>>
>>95347522
I ask because you sound committed to your opinion of n52 rhatos, which was shit. I don't care what you do, read it or not, but the problems you're describing aren't happening in the new rhatos. Everybody has been appropriately surprised about it, you're just late to the party.
>>
>>95347613
It's not about n52 rhato it's about Lobdell being a bad writer in general. While we're at it though, Jason need to be revamped, running around as Red Hood is moronic.

Seems like everyone is just a long time Lobdell fan to me.

Casual scum who jumped onboard DC during n52 like me only associate Lobdell with Teen Titans and Rhatos, both of which were hot garbage.

In the first issue Voodoo was depicted as a stripper, who was using her body to extract secrets from the military.

I really miss the fantasy-side of the DC universe being as strong as it was in the New 52.

At one point they had good Aquaman, Demon Knights, Sensation Comics, Swamp Thing, Sword of Sorcery, and Wonder Woman going on all at once, with decent fantasy aspects happening within Animal Man, Batwoman, Earth 2, Forever Evil: A.R.G.U.S., and Justice League at the same time, too.

I think that it's because much like how Doctor Thirteen is such a skeptic that he magically makes magic events into non-magic events, Ultraman is a cynic that probably doesn't give heed to any sort of magic, faith, or spirituality.
