The build up in Death of Superman is genuinely good
>>150576716>cheep?>BLORCH>Hah... HA HA HAAA
comic twitter thread
>>150576716It's a shame people only ever look at the marketing stunt angle. It's not an invalid criticism but I feel like they always overlook the aftermath. Funeral for a Friend and Reign of the Supermen are legitimately good, even fantastic at times.

>>150577096You know the only way you'd even know this was a twitter post is was if you were looking at twitter posts. And they don't have the sole ownership of these kinds of topics. Are you really gonna be so retarded to think that just because they say something no one else ever should.
>>150577305It's a reflection of the board's quality when we're making threads based on twitter discussion
>>150576867>>150577305Nta but I literally follow Exalted Speed, who retweeted this and I know that's how you saw this.
>>150577400We're not making threads on twitter discussion, twitter is making posts based on points everyone has made to death since the mid 90s. Good fucking god, the brain rot.
>>150577473I was on /co/ you fag
>>150577529You only made this thread because you saw the post on twitter.
>>150577543Lmao, you lying nigger.Literally no one was talking about Death of Superman on /co/, but you just happen to make a thread with the same exact picture and talking about as a post that was on twitter on the exact same day?
>>150577545So twitter monopolizes convos now, okay we can never discuss anything again
>>150577607I'm not the guy who posted the twitter screencap, I don't even care, but just admit that you made this thread because you saw it being discussed on twitter.
>>150577588I'm not OP you mong
Adventuretranny got raped by a pack of wolves
>>150577684Stfu
I'm both OP and the guy who made that Twitter post
>>150577903Prove it
>>150577910How?
>>150577684True!
>>150578317Wrong you fag
>>150576716I disagree. The page you posted is cool, but it’s built on nothing. Doomsday is mysterious in the worst way. He’s essentially a mystery box. There are so many ways they could have gone with this and the fact they chose to go with nothing but an earthbound slugfest and an assailant without discernible motives is absolutely baffling. It’s not like he didn’t have enemies. I like RoS, though.
>>150578380Idk, id say Doomsday being someone who only exists for death, who has no concience superman can try to speak to, makes him the most effective villain to kill him. And his later backstory works as such a good inverse of clark's (love vs hatred).
>>150577400this board regularly has dedicated feet threads
>>150578410I disagree on both counts. His later backstory is underwhelming and he’s a nothingburger as a character.
>>150576716It's much scarier without the laughter.
>>150578380
>>150576716What was the reaction to it like at the time? Must've been crazy
>>150578410The problem is that Doomsday really doesn't factor much back into the story after Superman dies. From there it goes right to Reign and Cyborg as the chief villain.
>>150579036Henshaw is a much cooler villain
>>150579149Yeah he is. Looking back I wonder if there weren't any better ways they could have "killed" Superman. Perhaps a roided out Mongol.
>>150576716>break out of a cargo container>spend 500 pages doing nothingit's fucking DBZ for people who think comics are a modern form of epic poetry>>150576847didn't Superman die in a tornado and get judged by a jury of zombies one time too?
>>150576716Why didn't The Spectre or Dr. Fate help Superman during the fight? Both of those characters are strong enough to kill Doomsday outright.
>>150579513I don't think either were active at the time, but also because comics
>>150579513remember when Doomsday murdered Optimus Prime
>>150576716Anyone noticed how, Ultraman in the movie looks like Doomsday in his suit, and once unmasked looked like mullet Superman?
>>150580034Yes. Literally everyone was pointing that out during the days before release.
>>150576716I thought this page was really funny and posted it a couple of times hoping BLORCH would catch on.
>>150578535My nigga.Doomsday is Space Monster Michael Myers. People pissing and moaning about muh motivation are missing the point. If DC weren't run by retards they'd realize what they have with Doomsday and run with the concept "slasher movie villain who can take Superman in a fight".
Very good series. I got the paperback and then started finding the issues in the dollar bin. If introduced me to a bunch characters I never read about and then it was also brutal seeing them get genuinely fucked up by Doomsday.
>>150580578I wonder if it would work better without any onomatopoeia at all. Because BLORCH is kind of a funny word
>>150580034Huh now that you mention it yeah.
>>150577305>>150577305>You know the only way you'd even know this was a twitter post is was if you were looking at twitter posts.Sincerely, asshole who is mad he got caught recycling thread starters from social media.
