DC Rebirth has been pretty acceptable. I don't really read much other than a few of those titles though

I rarely read a comic, when /tv/ or someone is talking it up and I can pirate it. Supergod was probably my favorite comic to be recommended here.

I actually own a stack of shitty comics but I never read them, they were an impulse purchase at a comic shop.

>>80581740
Flash has been pretty good.
Superman is probably my favorite. Jon is a little faggot but I kinda like the father/son relationship they have going on.
Batman has ranged from great to shit

Yeah... Tom King's writing has been quite disappointing.
Feels like he's building up to something (maybe the upcoming "Button" event) but it just never feels satisfying.

Tom King turned Batman into an even bigger manchild who needs Catwoman validation and support to function. Like as if no one else could understand him or why he does what he does.

I guess what happened is that editorial told Tom "Hey, this is Rebirth so we need you to put Brace and Selina together. Find some excuse why they're in love" and Tom just pulled out some shitty excuse out of his ass as quick as possible.

there's so much overlap between /tv/ and /co/ that its inevitable

Downloaded these ages ago and ended up buying some of them.

The Dark Knight Returns, The Watchmen and The Death of Superman have always felt so far above everything else that I kinda lost interest.

Cable and Deadpool, Captain America volume 5 and most contained Batman / Superman series are also decent.

I can't for the life of me remember the name, but there was also a series where Marvel writers re-imagined DC's characters and wrote a bunch of origin stories, also pretty interesting.

Because Batman and Catwoman interactions shouldn't be about romance. Batman isn't Superman and Catwoman isn't his Lois Lane. Catwoman should be a femme fatale. Catwoman's supposed to be a threat to Batman, not his soulmate.

Catwoman's a selfish and manipulative bitch that will betray anyone given a good enough reason and chance.

Batman behaving like a teenager that need a hot girl's opinion and validation to feel better about himself and continue living is pure bullshit.

The fuck are you on, son? Im just asking if you have any personal anecdotes with /co/ that you're basing your claims on. So far all youve been doing is posting panels from comics as if Marvel's focus group is a single board on 4chan.

>>80582924
no, but you do realize that most posters on 4chan in general are in their teens or early 20s, right?
so pretending to be more "mature" than anyone on here is fucking dumb

>>80582629

If King left it at that, there'd be no problem. Batman and Catwoman flirting and fucking is alright. The problem is the entire Catwoman arc where Batman kept trying to prove Catwoman innocent because she was the only one who could understand him, for dressing up like a bat, and still love him, a grown man who dress up like a bat, while spouting bullshit about him and Catwoman being dead and soulmates, because they both killed their old selves metaphorically to escape their existential pain and become animal, ie: a "bat" and a "cat". The whole "bat" and "cat" shit was specially annoying. They were both acting like goddamn retarded furries.


And Catwoman being the only person that can understand Batman when you've characters like Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin, Batgirl and so many others that also dress up in weird costumes to fight crime because they were inspired by Batman is pretty bulshit-y. Specially when Catwoman's mostly a thief while the others are actual crime-fighters that actually believe in Batman's ideals.

But hey, "Cat" is a pussy, after all.

Im going to take it that you're confirming you've never seen it for yourself. Youre right about the comics industry being boldfaced and unambigious leftist propaganda. But the collective opinion of /co/, much like the rest of this shitty website, is at least moderately conservative. They laugh about this shit all the time, constantly have threads bashing libshit comics, but you wouldn't know because you're too chicken to see for yourself.

>>80583120
no, it's doesn't. but this is a dumb argument, so let's just stop.

I don't understand the appeal of reading comics that aren't capeshit. Comic books were designed with superheros in mind, i'd just read a regular book if I wanted a good story that wasn't about people in cool looking costumes with superpowers.

I got drunk one time and thought I should start reading comic books. It only cost like $25 or so, and it seemed like a really fucking great idea to subscribe for a year's worth of Harley Quinn comics. DC took like two months to process it, and I'd pretty much forgotten about the whole thing until they started coming. I read the first two or three, then kind of lost interest in it all, but they just kept coming, and they didn't wrap them up or hide them in any way, so there wasn't any way to disguise the fact that I was a single dude turning 30 with a fucking subscription to Harley Quinn comic books. DC farmed out their subscription services to this place with crappy customer service, so there wasn't anything for me to do about it except avoid my mailman and wait.
