Fellas, it's Prime Time
Bump if you're reading
>>152954259Is that motherfucking Ignition????I always get him confused with Imperiex lol
>>152954278>>152954292You’re lucky I respect storytimes, because currently my intense urge to post a pepe in a top hat toasting with a >he cute! is overwhelming
>>152954313This counts as /ss/, but doesn’t count as cucking since they’re both Clark Kent
>>152954313He really is me fr fr, I feel like his skill set is complaining about comic books so that limits him to crititc, reviewer and podcaster lol.>>152954326dude's a grown ass man.
>>152954252I can only hope Prime's redemption will stick, he really really deserves it.
>>152954327Oh God, he's really becoming DC's Gwenpool, I hope they meet sometime lol.
>>152954332He brutally murdered many TT members and destroyed an alternative Earth
>>152954278I wanna live in the bottom right of that top right panel. Gimme more of the blue and gold
>>152954345If I entered the comic book universe as Superman I would immediately kill hundreds of heroes and villains and do whatever it would take to fuck Power Girl’s tits, and most posters here would do worse than that. So maybe lay off him a bit
Is Ignition out of character or not, I've never read Emperor Joker
>>152954359I dunno, sounds like ur just gay, lmao
>>152954373>ur just gay, lmaoThe only people who still type like this are troons and band kids. Which one are you?
>>152954366Oh Ignition was a robot???? i thought he was a guy since he wore cargo pants, I guess he's just a weird fucking robot.
>>152954336Prime buddy wait for the crossover
>>152954396>legion of superheros logocute, the most unrealistic part of this is that a comic book shop is left thriving downtown given rent/leasing lol.
Miss opportunity for Prime to claim he's the original reason why Jason Todd was even brought back to life.
>>152954396I'm immediately reminded of PAD's Captain Marvel, which is good
And that's all folks.Support your LCS, or whatever.
>>152954428>>152954434Manchester's dead, right? Is Prime immediately going to have to figure out how to ghostbust?
>>152954405I see the theme of this story will be how everyone wants to fuck Prime. Now will he actually get some action?
>>152954464He wouldn't betray Laurie, but some Silver Age douchery could occur.
>>152954428Oh yeah, I forgot you're a psycho
>>152954475>that shameful pivot from redditspeak to saying niggerOvercompensating for something, hon?
>>152954327I'm up for it! Let's make Prime the main Superman forever.
>>152954382MAN?!
>>152954349Isn't this the guy that they were setting some sort of mystery as to who his identity is, but then the story got cancelled?
>>152954396>Solomon Grundythey do comics for villains in-universe?
>>152954494>that shameful pivotI'd say ur grasping at straws but apparently the only thing on your mind is grasping for potential tranny dick, but you won't get any from me you faggot ass tourist. Go back to twitter and stay there.
>>152954513Oh, so I was right. Concession accepted, ywnbaw, so on and so forth, etc
>>152954460>Manchester's dead, right?He seems more undead.
>>152954434>British Invasion>Manchester can see us nowWonder where this will go.
>>152954417Primehood fans went crazy over this page.
>>152954504Yes
>>152954592wonder if this is just basically a cameo or if Williamson plans to close that story
>>152954602I think cameo honestly, when Prime ripped his head off, it was a robot so I think they forgot what his story was meant to be.
i love that they actually use the prime time meme now
>>152954506Grundy has a mini during Blackest Night, not sure if that’s the right cover though
>>152954396so how is it a unique problem that prime knows dc comics if the same comics that prime knows exist in this universe too and are something you can just buy in a shop?
>>152954434This was actually a pretty fun read
>>152954730Prime probably did some reality shenanigans and made the comic shop
>>152954730Those are probably in-universe fake comics that just use real covers for convenience.
by the way the art is gorgeous
>>152954750You can just say Dan Mora drew Prime hot as fuck, it's okay.
>>152954278>is that a younger Superman who isn't married?>AWOOGA
>>152954789pretty much everyone is hot as fuck even his noname neighbors
>>152954790makes sense that they run away from lois then
>>152954326Prime is only mentally a boy, he's probably closer to Jason Todd in age.So young, but also legal.
>>152954790Nope he is still a SuperBOY
>>152954474Where the fuck is Laurie anyway?
>>152954302Wouldn't the answer to Terrifics ' problem be to put Prime with a group of people that basically never get comics like those Dan Mora OCs or Aztek?
>>152954798That was the cringiest part no one acts like around Adult Clark Kent
>>152954750I'm not gay but Jon does things to me, man.
>>152954382The granny from Once and Future?
>>152954396so the Redhead is the villian from later on in the arc
>>152954460Yeah, he died in the Action Comics issue that started Williamson's Superman run
>>152954460Yeah, Luthor used him to bring back Clark's secret identity and he died from that.I guess he became a ghost and got cosmic awareness from that.
>>152954326I still kinda wanna see them fucking.
>judicious use of opportunities to give him a fat ass>general fanserviceSee, this is what the bat-artists need to do more of.
>>152954428Prime you did not have to tear of your shirt like that.
>>152954977quiet, yes he did
>>152954313>"Is that what Superman would do?"Prime should have replied with "Depends...I'm sure he would, if he needed to say destroy his own 'son'"or "Would Lois Lane purposely turn Clark Kent into a baby?"
>>152954856Because Adult Clark is in his 40s in acts and looks like a giant nerd. Prime is like 19 years oldPeople do gawk at adult Clark, but Prime is much younger.
>>152954847Probably back on Earth-prime or whatever Earth Prime was rewarded with during Death Metal. Someone has to take care of Kryto while Prime is hanging out on Earth-1.
>>152955046that turned out to have been a fake dimension made by the timekeeper prime seemed weirdly okay with that, but he also mentioned that he could get back if he had a guideso the who the fuck knows
>>152955022See this is where this whole fame Superboy Prime fandom hits a wall, you simply cannot stop from shitposting about Superman, making it clear how artificial your interest is about this.
>>152955057>Fake dimension Fucking christ, I wish they'd just have it be real, and time keeper basically popped in, and told Prime shit is going down.
>>152955057>>152955076>time keeperIt's Time Trapper. Also the reasoning is that it's a pocket dimension because it had to be hidden away from the multiverse. It's still stupid but I guess just making an earth within a pocket dimension is a lot less effort than hiding an entire universe away from the rest.
>>152954246PRIME TIME BABY
>>152954417If Prime and Jason should meet-up, he should say to Jason "I voted to keep you alive, also I should be apart of your origin story."
>>152955057>>152955114yeah it was kinda stupid, but i can forgive it because Prime one tapping Absolute Lightning Lad like 3 times without the guy learning his lesson was funny as hell
I'm sold, even after you bring Clark back give Prime his own ongoing
>>152954890>JonWrong Superboy, this is Superboy-Prime, aka Prime, aka CK.
>>152955177If this does well enough, I'm sure Prime will stick around.It's even teased in >>152954327Although I'm not sure what kind of stories a Prime solo would have.
>>152955177>>152955186This has to be astroturfed right?
>>152955188Kinda? It's obvious Williamson likes Prime and he's taking advantage of the nature of his character to push him and the idea that he could get his own book even after Superman comes back.But on the other hand, you also have teenage girls actually thirsting over him and changing their profile images to pic related, so it's not completely manufactured, Prime really is that popular right now.
>>152955210I'm glad they didn't forget his scar this time, it was missing in Death Metal when he died, and in the Marvel crossover.I think some artists just forgot Prime carved the logo onto his chest like a psychopath lol
>>152955224>he's taking advantage of the nature of his character I think Williamson fundamentally misunderstands the nature of Superboy Prime and just kinda assumes/hoping he acts like GwenPool.
>>152954428Wait a moment didn't Connor scarred him in the chest with heat vision in the Legion of 3 worlds storyline
>>152955238He's just leaning onto a side of his character that got kinda forgotten at some point.It comes with writing him as less whiny and sociopathic, it helps that people seem to like it.
>>152955210>I'll take superman's place>i'll make a huge return!i see ck is playing the long game
>>152955258>He's just leaning onto a side of his character that got kinda forgotten at some point.No he's not, he's creating a whole new character here.
>>152954434I can see Prime try and pull this with Manchester https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGtiinR6ni8
>>152955224>so it's not completely manufactured >shows the most manufactured image possible
>>152954383>If you're not a psycho like me, you're a troon!Fucking genius
>>152955299Manufactured in the sense that it's not genuine, that image exists because someone cared about Prime enough to make it.
>>152955276Comes with being redeemed and not constantly screaming about his Earth being better.Prime has generally been calming down since Death Metal, even if he still has some outbursts from time to time.
>>152955325How the fuck is he redeemed if still has that same mindset of being an violently entitled manchild?
>>152954313Damn, he has a fat ass
>>152955316>that image exists because someone cared about Prime enough to make it.That image exists because you made it.
>>152955348I don't even know what the flag means and I assure you I don't know shit about image editing lolSearch for opinions about Prime on Twitter and I'm sure you'll find it eventually.
>>152955336He's still a work in progress, he at least wants to be good now and Lois is vouching for him.
>>152954246I prefer manga but I really enjoyed this. Good art and Prime was fun. Why can't other comics be fun?
>>152955374>I have no idea what the flag could mean and I can't edit for shit lolDude c'mon, you have him reading classic Hellblazer.
>>152955392So he's redeemed but he's also has yet gone through a proper redemption arc?
>>152955438He already "redeemed" himself in Death Metal by helping against Batkek, but none of the heroes ever learned about that, so he's still trying to earn their trust.I shouldn't have to explain this to you anon, come on.
>>152955336It’s called character progression Anon. Dude is trying. Also this issue was fun. Why can’t we have more of this ?
>>152955417You'd be surprised by how popular old books are with young fans.
>>152955460>He already "redeemed" himself in Death Metal by helping against BatkekNot if you're saying I got to wait for his redemption arc.What it actually sounds like that you're expecting this war of attrition and that just through sheer stubbornness of the fanboy writer to win me over.
>>152955484>Dude is tryingHe's not though, like for him this is just an insekai with no real consequences.
>>152955497anon what the hell are you talking about
Bros this issue was so much fun. This is how comics should be right? Lois and Prime bonding was not in my bingo card. It be funny that after all of this is over Lois is the only person that can convince Prime to do anything.
>>152955489No I think it's just more likely that was just straightup fraud.
>>152955497His redemption arc technically already started in Superman #28, he's been helping out for a while, he's just taking over the book now.
>>152955517Well I'm saying this glazing for Superboy Prime is fake as fuck with seemingly contradictory explanations of why he is redeemed or on the road to being redeemed.
>>152955541So he's not redeemed...but everyone is acting like he is.
>>152955061What are you talking about? Clark looks and acts like a giant nerd 90% of the time, which is why no one would be interested.When he's working out or when he's on his farm, women fall all over him.Prime is a younger, not nerdy Clark, so girls would love him
>>152954345Those titan members are alive again
>>152955544You're retarded then
>>152954252Sonofabitch I'm in
>>152954396So the comic book business is going well in the DC universe if it’s enough for Prime to be able to afford a lease.
>>152955566Prime is actually way more nerdier than Clark.It's not even a contest, Prime is a comic book reading loser.
>>152955566>not nerdyNah, Prime is definitely a nerd.He's just a hot nerd.
>>152954730The ones in universe don't reveal secret identities or any real hidden things
>>152955544Just enjoy the ride cuck or idk read ultimate avengers
>>152955558You're just splitting hairs over what counts as redemption or not, technically he's been a good guy since Death Metal, that's it.
>>152955618Oh so you did understand me when I explain how I think the campaign to make Superboy Prime "popular" was gonna work.
>>152955626I'm not splitting hairs though, he either is redeemed in which case his attitude hasn't changed so how can that be true or he is on the road to being redeemed which wouldn't explain why everyone's attitude towards him has changed.
>>152955658He's redeemed because he's doing good instead of evil now, stop being autistic.
>>152955667It's a good thing I explained in the post you were replying to how that isn't true.
>>152954252I like how Prime know this is temporary
>>152954417>They’ll see I’m like the Jason Todd of the Super family It’s not gonna end well for him.
>>152955695Actually, I think it's the most annoying thing about him
>>152954345And the people who know better want that undone and Geoff Johns to have his head stuck on a pike.
Prime is so moe
>>152955722Oh because he is Deadpool of the DC universe ?
>>152955712He clearly means the "fan favorite bad boy" but there are definitely other ways one could interpret that comparison.
>>152954252>>152954259the whiplash between these two pages had me laugh out loud on the train on the way to work today
>>152954345He defeated Batkek it balances.
>>152955745Yeah exactly
>>152954252>Fly with me?
>>152955276To be fair the character johns reintroduced in infinite crisis was a whole new character compared to who he originally was which was just young Clark
>>152955808That's true and it was meet with severe criticism because of it.I don't think salavages Superboy Prime though, in fact it seems more of a doubling down.
>>152955774Whats so bad about that ?
>>152956049Because dc has a reddit pool we didn't need a gwenreddit pool too
>>152956049Because it doesn't work with Superboy Prime.>>152956075You know as much people shit on HarleyPool, she undeniably fills the merc with a mouth archetype.
>>152954252It might have been derivative so in a weird way I commend Williamson for not doing it, but it actually would have been in character and sense if Superboy Prime basically veered the Superman comic back to how he recalled and liked it, sort of like Moore's Supreme except with intention.
>>152956113God no, Harleypool was one of the worst things they did with the character, and they've done a LOT of shit with her.
>>152954359Why not just rape Power Girl without all the murders?
>>152956207I disagree as HarleyPool makes sense, she is a hyperactive ninja with a motor mouth so for me not only is HarleyPool a good idea, she's a lot better idea then Insekai Superboy Prime.
>>152954252Im in
I want to fuck ck
>>152956266Then you are a retard whose ideas are not worth considering Good day to you sir and may God have mercy on your soul
>>152955834>and it was meet with severe criticism because of itNobody realized Infinite Crisis was bad until Doomsday Clock.
>>152956349People knew it was bad but final crisis was worse so they gave it a pass
>>152956266It makes sense for Prime since he's literally meant to be from "the real world", he knows comics.Harley was just turned into an unfunny Deadpool knockoff cause they thought she was crazier than she actually was.
>>152954428>IT'S PRIME TIME!
>>152954320Prime brings up a good point here. He is after all a variar of Superman. So he looks exactly the same only 20 years younger. So someone would connect all the dots
>>152954252God I wish there was an Amazing Yamaguchi figure of SBP, or even a Figuarts>>152954302>Without Superman here to vouch for himT-dawg, you know damn well he -would- vouch for him, what you really mean to say is that he's not there to wrangle him. Also who's firelion guy?
>>152954396>Prime could been a comic book writer, and literally just re-tell stories from New Earth that aren't from the mainline universe.Imagine him writing Identity Crisis
>>152956392Deadpool isn't the merc who knows comics, he's the merc with the mouth.And that's why this flatout doesn't work because the one thing that was consistent about him, till now, was the fact he was shitty at quips. Like literally cringe inducing commentary that even people getting into full blown brawls gave him shit for.This is an insekai OC who is getting glazed in an embarrassing amount.
>>152954434I have mixed feelings about Gwenpool Prime but I appreciate that they're just having fun with a character who has been maligned (and frankly, poorly written) for most of his existence.I'm interested to see if they can land a good balance between regular storytelling and the soft meta storytelling that current Prime is peddling. I'm not holding out too much hope, though.
>>152954349oh shit it's that guy that always appears in forgotten villains threads
>>152956530This is still poorly written! Two wrongs don't make a right anon!
>>152956565Can't argue that. I give some grace on first issues setting up status quos because they're inherently going to be a bit heavy-handed in doing so before getting to the real meat.I'm giving it an honest shot. I want to believe the "DC is back" shills I've heard, but I know in my heart I'll be disappointed.
>>152954405Witchfire Zatanna Katana Huntress Vixen and two random apartment building milfs can he stop fucking winning?
>>152956666Wow now I just gotta like him!
>>152956700Trying too hard anon, go do something you actually like.
>>152954320Williamson’s writing won me over I think I love him
>>152956700are you that anon who has been seething that no one is ever shown thirsting over Superman like that? Chill out. Have some fun.
>>152956720>trying too hardIf anything this shit is too easy. >>152956734>i love you superboy prime you are my favorite character now
>>152956748My actual favorite, Eobard Thawne, got written off by Williamson in a way I am completely happy about so “man who knows the past and future and has fun with it” is fun. The art is also hot
>>152956746Oh if I'm "seething" that means I'm wrong to criticize this character pandering?

>>152954342He is in the crossover next month, we have not been told she is, but it's possible.
>>152957910Mora Zatanna is very beautiful while Campbell Zatanna is thicc as fuck
>>152954252He said "even fatigue"He is literally me
>>152957917It's probably a vague awareness of shit going down and Prime being one of the big players responsible for it. They know he's unstable *at best* and thats enough for them to be wary.It makes sense. You'd be a little nervous too if the nuke that's in the room had a hair trigger on it
>>152957961Prime is crossing over with Black suit Spidey, we've known that for a while, and the previous are out.
>>152954302>have living proof right in front of you that your entire existence of love, pain and death is just fictional entertainment for vague, unknowable higher level beings>instead of having the greatest existential crisis imaginable you just roll with itFucking comics, mang.....
>>152958469I feel like they have known about this concept since The Flash. Jay Garrick was a comic book character in Barry's world
>>152958469In-universe, comics are just explained as basically being "windows" into other universes, read Multiversity.That shouldn't stop them from living their lives, just like reality could just be a simulation or a comic or a TV show, we just live on.
>>152954371Seems like Williamson remembered pre-Crisis Earth Prime dwellers are full on reality warpers, and Prime is beginning to fully tap into that instead of just his Retcon Punch
>>152955276It is he returning to his roots as a DC fan from IRL, Johns turned him into a boomerang strawfan
>>152958530If we are just fiction for some other universe, they need to hire some better writers already. This whole Trump arc has been going on way longer than it should have
>>152955186>If this does well enough, I'm sure Prime will stick around.Superboy Prime is gonna be starring in the Legion of SuperHeroes book Williamson is writing. It's not even a theory, Joshua outright said it when it was announced.
>>152954371>give Prime the ability to rewrite his own comic on the flyNo way this can go wrong
>>152956483>Imagine him writing Identity CrisisWould he spill the original identity of murderer?
>>152958582It's starting to feel like how DC was, when The Batman Who Laughs was fucking everywhere

>>152958608>Joshua outright said it when it was announced.Source on that?
>>152958945It is less obscure and more "Mora OC", he was created for the world finest Kingdom Come arc.
>>152959172Shows what I know
>>152958608Why would the Legion ever accept Prime?
>>152958608>Joshua outright said it when it was announced.It's funny how often you guys just lie for no reason lmao
>>152954252Prime going from total jackass back to being Superboy really doesn't suck which writer will ruin this, take your bets.
>>152958582>>152958681Big WWIII crossover event coming to create a cosmic reboot, trust the plan
>>152959204He, and the other 2, are basically panel filler.
>>152959296At least they look cool.
>>152959253I don't think any current writer has the capacity of writing him like he was, you need a lot of spite against the dc universe to pull it off.
>>152954405>referencing lois having a hundred issue series to her faceDo the others just ignore the meta commentary, how does it work
>>152959496he just sounds crazy talking about a lot of their silver age stuff"what do you mean I wore blackface?!"
>>152959496How would one even respond to such a sentence? He just sounds like a crazy person.
>>152958608Did he say which legion
>>152958945Thanks, brighteyes!
>>152959213Because he helped them against the absolute legion and whatever form the legion takes will be because of the idea he had during k.o.?
The only way to really complete his redemption arc is if he brings back Earth-2 Superman.
>>152959253>which writer will ruin this, take your bets.Mark Waid easily
>>152959677>>152959667I mean she knows he is from a world where their adventures are comic books, so she can probably parse it
I'm looking forward to SBP and Witchfire.
>>152959682This is Williamson, all the money is on Retroboot plus a few stragglers from the other Legions including the Absolute Legion since they are Williamson creations.
>>152959707>Power girl, I will bring your cousin I killed back to life, just please for the love of Conway please go back to being Karen instead of Paige. I almost started another infinite crisis when I found out you were calling yourself Paige now, so you should thank me for just bringing your cousin back instead
>>152959741Didn't he say it wouldn't be the absolute legion? They are probably being saved for next years absolute crisis
If it isn't MY archie legion, it's shit.
I want rwby to crossover with SC again now while prime is superman so we can get ruby and weiss lusting over prime while blake tries to convince herself using is better than prime.
>>152959713He is too busy, and David/Magog was his prime
>>152959741Is there really any real point to using the Absolute Legion?They're just an evil Legion. Theres nothing too interesting about them that would explain why you would use them instead of the Retroboot
>>152958608>still no sourceYou're just lying.
>>152954382THE MAN IS REAL
>>152959831Why not threebootWhy not the legion with the fat ugly snakeWhy retroboot
>>152959952Because it's the closest to the original one and fits with Superman's modern (Silver Age) backstory.
>>152959973Yeah and that got undone for bendisboot
>>152958569You and I both know that in your hearts of heart that this is not how a DC fanboy would react being transported into DC comics.this is how an insekai protagonist would act. I wish you fuckers be honest about what we're dealing with here.
>>152959999Superboy Prime was always an insekai protagonist.
>>152960017No, he was a DC fanboy who was living the dream of his love of comics being rewarded. This OC you're drooling over here instead acts like an insekai protagonist exploiting this world through broken game mechanics.
>>152959999He changed with the era.Original; cool I can interact with favorite childhood heroes!!Johns and Didio's self-insert; you are ruining everything!! It is too dark!!! (rips babies in half) post crisis characters weren't meant to exist (confirmed by infinite crisis their wrote), not muh, etc...Current; I don't know what the fuck is happening, but let's go with the flow.
>>152959989And that's exactly why we're ignoring the Bendisboot too, no one liked that shit.The Retroboot is the closest one to the original we've got, using that one makes the most sense.
>>152954891Mora LOVES sneaking in cameos from that series
>>152960150I am pretty sure those were all killed off a while ago
>>152954278>>152954302>ladies go mirin>guys want him to fuck offPrime is unironically a victim of penis envy.
>>152960129Superboy Prime wasn't Didio and John's self-insert but this OC whose knob you slobbin on is clearly a self-insert for the audience.
>>152960254Everything he did during infinite crisis was a thing they did, were doing or wanted to do.In their attempt of writing the most toxic deranged fanboy, they accidentally wrote themselves.
>>152960181Most of the Legions died off-screen, but even then, most of the survivors were from the Retroboot.Obviously they're all going to come back when the future gets fixed, but we'll only follow the one that lines up with DC's current canon.
Why is Prime suddenly ok with staying? I just assumed he came back to help out, then go back to his world. La we saw, his girlfriend was alive and he had powers there.
>>152960304But that not him being they're self-insert, that's them using him as a tool you fucking tool.
>>152960334That wasn't really Earth-Prime, it was just a facsimile.
>>152954565It's the Brits that infected US comics with their shitty metanarratives, after all. Damn you Morrison!
>>152960334Because Joshua Williamson told you, he's looking for a payday by using this arc to turn him into bad boy anti-hero fanfavorite.
>>152955566>>152955607>Clark is hot farmboy, but people look at him like a huge nerd at a desk>Prime acts like a hotshot, fit young man, but he's actually still just a huge comic nerd
>>152959496>how does it workIt doesn't. You just have to accept that everyone talking to him lacks such agency that they don't even question it.
>>152959952Don't insult snakefu
>>152960334Because that was just a pocket universe. Also he said it himself, he never had time to just explore and live in his favorite world before.
>>152959496It's the same kind of reaction normal people have when a comic fan mentions comic books in a discussion. Their eyes glaze over and they shut it out.
>>152954434Holy shit Amelia transitioned
>>152960504>Ameliawho
>>152960486Ok but it's distinctively not that at all.
>>152960545Amelia from the greatest British video game ever, Pathways.
>>152960549I think it is. Normal people don't give a shit about comic books let alone comic books from a parallel universe.
>>152960588*Also, I'm sure Lois has more important things on her mind than being the star of defunct comic book in another universe.
>>152960588It's not though.
>>152960350>being they're self-insertIndian or phone poster?
>>152960580who
>>152954434This whole issue was trying to get readers sexually obsessed with Prime
>>152954292>>152954320Mora has always drawn amazing female characters, but SBP is clearly the hottest character he has ever drawn.
>>152954278>>152954382>>152954405So is every woman being hot for Prime him unintentionally warping reality? Or is Clark Kent just hot as fuck when he's not overly pretending to be a hayseed?
>>152961514I'm surprised he re-opened commissions and WASN'T bombarded with yaoi requests like what happened at the convention a few years ago
>>152961551It's supposed to be the latter but really comes off as the former.
>>152954434How does a ghost tattoo the UK flag on their chest?
>>152961728Because Manchester Black tattooed a Union Jack on his Chest in life?
>>152961728Very spiritually
>>152961728Due to being psychic you can handwave a lot of shit about Manchester's astral form.
>>152954252He is in the 3rd and final stage of being a comic fan. 1. he likes the comic2. things change and he doesn't like the changes3. he doesn't care anymore because he can tell when kind of changes will stick and can enjoy something for what it is
>>152954302>>152954428I certainly hope that Lois and Mr. Terrific didn't think of how dangerous it would be if somebody read SBP's mind and did nothing about it.
>>152955250IIRC, he carved the symbol into his own chest after losing in Infinite Crisis.
>>152954302The fuck is Aztec doing there lol, I thought Morrison killed him off after no one showed any interest in the character
>>152954313Lois being Prime's tardwrangler is cute actuallyI still have mixed feelings about Prime being used like this at all but it's been fun so far
>>152954259Oh right Ignition. What was his deal again? Just that he was a lackey to the Russian Zod?
>>152954327Isn't trying to be the best Superman one of the things that drove Prime nuts in the first place? Or was it that the world wasn't worth protecting? Infinite Crisis is kind of a blur to me
>>152962119Member berry from the cartoon?
>>152962119I guess Mora just saw an excuse to put Aztek there. But also, how many times has the universe reset since Morrison's JLA run?
>>152962119wasn't it more like his Aztek's book was cancelled and then he wrapped it all up properly in Morrison's final JLA arc?
>>152962180IIRC>Prime got mad that the universe had gotten so dark and violent>Prime accidentally killed Pantha in the heat of battle>Prime blames the dark/violent universe for corrupting him
>>152962193I think he returned after Flashpoint, I remember people being confused by him.
>>152962180it was seeing the universe go through the dark age of comics while he could only watch with a dude who was born literally yesterday and an old version of himself and his wife.
>>152955250>>152962109It was while he was jailed on Oa. Infinite Crisis drama drove him batshit nuts so he went full edge lord for a bit
prime needs to try to restore earth-15 if he wants to redeem himself
>>152962119He got replaced by a woman too, but looks like we're walking that back.
>>152954246Where is regular Clark?>>152954269How many times since Rebirth Lois got and lost Superwoman powers?
>>152962774>Where is regular Clark?see the medium sized yellow box in >>152954259Supes vanished after defeating Darkseid and spreading Christmas cheer across the universe
>>152962836What about his faggot son?
>>152962880Got himself a new identity, Jon is Superman no more.
>>152962880Jon is now Tomorrow Man and Superboy again.
>>152962880Prime will make out with him in an upcoming issue because he knows the fujos will eat it up.
>>152962944How?
>>152962997A poorly written 5D imp did it.
>>152961551Clark Kent is a hottie when he’s not pretending, SBP is like a younger, cockier Clark. Also Dan Mora draws him hot as fuck his pecs are enormous
>>152962997Impus ex machina.
>>152962997a 5th d demon tried to kill adult jon before he would kill him at the end of time, but in doing so jon got resolve and his new costume that made the demon realize he just trapped himself in a paradox and gave adult jon the gift of rescuing kid jon
>>152954252>>152954292Jesus H. Christ.On a fucking cracker.FML - I think I finally understand you degenerate perverts.I would totally fuck this comic book character.
>>152962974Wrong they all ship him with Jason Todd. Except me, who wants him to tell Lex that his homoerotic obsession with Superman can be seen from space.
>>152963138In your defense, between the fun writing and great art, he’s the most fuckable guy in comics right now
>>152962903Its kinda funny how they won't accept that that look is so much better than dumb gay Superman with circle belt. Even the 90s roller skating elbow pads go hardTomorrow Man as a name might work, idk if this is real tryout but the Superman and son (also Superman) shit isn't gonna be accepted forever. I think this is a genuine attempt to make a new Nightwing, I can't imagine the abortion 5g Taylor trades do well (hey man, we made sure he never through a punch teehee)
>>152963141These are both much better choices, but the bat-office hates fun and good pairings.I'll hold out hope for him explaining to Clark that Kon isn't actually a clone because that isn't how clones work and he's really the gay babytrap Lex tried to get him with.
Prime's love life should just be "Superman's girlfriend Lois Lane" type of vibes, especially the covers.
>>152963200>hey man, we made sure he never through a punch teehee)Weird how effeminate he got, Black Adam was also pushing him around without problems
Has Linkara commented at how Prime is popular, beloved, and thirsted over now?
>>152956479>Amazing Yamaguchi figure of SBP, or even a FiguartsDefinitely something better than the ugly shit with the side eyes McFarlane shat out a few years ago.I hope Blokees does it.>>152954336>watch out>here comes the SUPERMANI'm in love.
>>152963141I don't want Jason and CK to fag out, but I would like them to at least meet at some point, they are similar in some ways and Prime did bring Jason back to life after all, they gotta acknowledge that.
>>152963362>gotta acknowledge that.Wouldn't Prime just hog all the glory saying "I brought you back, you know. Stupid Lazarus Pit origin story"
>>152963212Kona’s parentage is the only dumbass Geoff Johns retcon I accept because it’s both homoerotic and hilarious
>>152963362Fujos are already happy that he was mentioned at all in this issue, in the apartment panel
>>152954417Bro, Prime would actually get slay so many girls living a normal life it’s crazy
>>152962109>>152962235Nah, he means the scar that Kon gave him over the S symbol.I assume they just forgot about it or are actively ignoring it cause the S scar is cooler by itself.
>>152955250>>152962109>>152962235Kon actually messed with the S symbol, and the fact it was reflected in the Time Trapper it means it was permanent.
>>152963507>>152963470Multi superboy prime theory.
>>152963542More like Multi Time Trapper fact.Mark my words, there will be a storyline in the future where all versions of the Time Trapper team up.
>>152954349I wish to be cynical but Prime is right, that is a cool design
>>152954349>Peak>He also said simp and bruh in the Spider-Man crossover You lived long enough to see Superboy Prime become a zoomer
>>152961551>>152963098>Clark Kent is a hottie
>>152963731Simp entered the layman vocabulary in general
>>152963731>Peakpeak 90s (or any other year) has been in the lexicon long before zoomers got internet
>>152961573I'm sure he must have had at least one request for Superboy Prime and Red hood slash art. The fujos on Twitter are going wild for that.
>>152954246Is there a reason why Prime has become such a hit lately? Is it really just because he's attractive?
>>152964540Yes, and zoomer/alpha fans hate the same stuff he did during infinite crisis.
>>152964540It is partly cause he's hot yeah, but also cause he's genuinely been a really fun character ever since they brought him back.On top of that, his redemption has been very effective in the fandom, and people like his crazy personality.
>>152964540I honestly don't know if he has been, any internet reaction wouldn't be reacting to anything happening on the page and more on memes on SuperHarem fanifc prompts.Morbes aka it's morbin' times show that memes don't kean much if there's not an actual narrative to be interested in.>>152964576Like this guy, he's saying this new Superbpy Prime has been "fun" but could he actually tells us what's been going on?
>>152964551>YesShallow but expected. It's so strange to me considering Dan Mora tends to illustrate handsome men anyhow. Not sure why Prime has stuck out to audiences that much. >>152964576Call me cynical but to me he reads as DC's equivalent of Deadpool.
>>152964640He's been just a fun character to watch in the dc k.o lead up and arc in superman. He makes fun jokes and you want to see him continue to be a hero and not backslide into villainy
>>152964667>He makes fun jokes and you want to see him continue to be a hero and not backslide into villainyNot that anon but I can't help but feel that will be an inevitablity since it's comics and writers can't help but to fall back on old status quos.
>>152964667See what I'm saying? Punchline had a similar fanbase.Remember her? She was hot and sexy too.
>>152964640>could he actually tells us what's been going on?Can't you? Read the fucking book anon, he's been a supporting character since Superman #28, all he had to say was "Get Silver Age with me" and everyone fell in love with him.
>>152964540Everybody loves a redemption story. And hey, the dog likes him!
>>152964697Punchline doesn't get half the discussion I'm seeing of Prime on Twitter, just look up "Prime" and you'll see a bunch of people praising him and hoping Clark's vacation lasts a little longer so we can spend more time with Prime.DC has successfully made Prime a fan-favorite.
>>152964657>why Prime has stuck out to audiences that much.He's FUN.>he reads as DC's equivalent of Deadpool.He's more like what Gwenpool should've been, considering he's all about comics and comes from the "real" world.
>>152964791Jason Todd is a great example why being popular on social media like Twitter and Facebook or even Tumblr means jack shit.
>>152964540He's a hot younger silly edgier formerly evil version of Superman with meta awareness, there are many reasons.
>>152964761>read the fucking bookOk assume you're trying to recomend this book to me.How are you summarizing this story up to interest me in reading it?
>>152964815Well, it's the only metric we've got, and it's more than most characters can say.In fact, Jason is popular in social media despite his comics generally not being very good, with Prime, at least more people are actually saying that they liked the issue.
>>152964774True but to me it feels manufactured.>>152964802Fair enough, I guess.>>152964820I guess I'm over characters with that fourth wall breaking awareness.
>>152964846These are comics anon, they're all manufactured, don't be stupid.
>>152964841>Well, it's the only metric we've got,Actually it's the worse metric you could go with. What about sales? What about real life reception?
>>152964858You know what I mean.
>>152964877>Actually it's the worse metric you could go with.Why? They're real time updates on what people who read the comics are thinking, it's the best possible metric we have at the moment.>What about sales?We don't know those yet, we'll have to wait and see.>What about real life reception?I don't even know how you could possibly measure that. Do you want to go ask people on the street how they feel about "Superboy-Prime"?
>>152964835I don't have to sell you anything or explain myself on why I like something, I just like it.I already told you he's a fun character to follow, if that's not enough then too bad, I assume that if you're arguing about this you've probably already read the comic and decided you don't like it anyway.
>>152964846It feel entirely manufactured because we either have to all pretend the writers perfectly retcon Superboy Prime's crime so he's still a Supervillain in need of reformation but he's not the tantrum throwing mass murdering manchild who killed entire planets worth of people because muh comics.
>>152964640Eh, narrative works pretty well. A bad guy who wants to be Superman but still has the lingering immature god complex he’s trying to reign in
>>152964896No, I actually don't know what you mean.Of course DC would want to push a character and make sure he's likeable and appealing, that's their fucking job.They are indeed "manufacturing" a "story" where Prime gets a "redemption arc" and does "fun" things to sell books.
>>152964525The only commissions I saw from him recently were Invincible and Absolute JokerI'm not sure if he's at conventions or not but if he did more yaoi I'd be surprised if the commissioners kept it private
>>152964963>I don't need to sell you on anythingBut let's say you did, how are you doing it? >>152964979Well that's not the narrative but the premise so what is actually the narrative.
>>152964975You people really need to read Death Metal, that's when all this Prime redemption started, you can all thank Snyder and Johns for this.
>>152964657>Prime has stuck out to audiences that much.Its.....PrimeWhen people think of him they think of shit like the "THEY'RE RUINING IT" page This is the most young, beautiful, and charming he's been since...forever
>>152963268I don't think Linkara has given any opinions on modern DC since like Heroes in Crisis.
>>152965042>This is the most young, beautiful, and charming he's been since...foreverI mean yeah that is very true. Maybe it's just my autism or whatever. It's just that Prime when illustrated by Mora has got people swept off their feet. Acting like he's the hottest man he's ever drawn.
>>152965018That's certainly where it starts but that doesn't make this a good idea.Superboy Primexs problem wasn't that he's a whiny nerd but that he couldn't see his "favorite characters" as people and he still thinks like this so obviously the redemption is nonexistent.
>>152964990>did more yaoi I'd be surprised if the commissioners kept it privateThat would be disappointing if that's the case. God I wish I could afford a comm.
>>152965079https://youtu.be/pDFDsBwlcnM
>>152965011Define narrative with an example of a character you like
>>152964697Prime got to be a real character
>>152964985But that's putting cart before horse where Williamson is beginning with Superboy Prime's redemption arc resolved.
>>152965011>But let's say you did, how are you doing it?Superboy-Prime is here to kick ass and be Super, and he's all out of ass.There, print it.
I really love his new costume. I always thought he was held back by the red panties.
>>152965108Believe it or not that's exactly how punchline fans use to try and sell Punchline, their argument being Alexis was more "real" than Harley because she accepted The Joker had no meaning...conveniently ignoring how the very text contradicting that assessment.
>>152964841The Batfamily has a unique advantage that makes their popularity largely independent of their books. See also Tim, who still has his fans despite years and years of either nothing or bad choices fujos didn't really like.
>>152965112You have to be baiting at this point.
>>152965112The arc has been a thing since Death Metal and is still a work in progress because the heroes don't fully trust him, but he still seems to actually trying to be a good guy.This is like the third time this had to be explained.
>>152964835Depending on how much arm room Williamson has, how intently he intends to use it and can this could be1.part writer meta-commentary on the chaotic state of mainline DC >>152954434 (which isn't the first instance, but one more won't hurt anymore than it hasn't helped either)2.part media fan power fantasy >>152954358 (though I'm not sensing quite enough of Prime getting to affect that as apology for the existential horror he's endured and more being "allowed" the opportunity for it to affect him as redemption for merely attempting what other characters have done but haven't answered for.)3.part standard superhero action-drama >>152954259 (that much is a given from the first few pages)
>>152965149I'm curious how you think I'm wrong as people itt are saying that Death Metal already redeemed him.
>>152965172And we already told you that he's been a good guy ever since he fought against Batkek in Death Metal, that's all that redemption means in this case.
>>152965149>>152965172Look, see this >>152965168This is literally what I'm talking about. Death Metal apparently redeemed Superboy Prime and now he's just repeating a resolved redemption arc, to make sure it stick I guess.
>>152965217It's a continous arc because no one in Death Metal knew he helped, he's still trying to gain their trust you dumb asshole.
>>152965170Where is the myopic investment in Superboy Prime even coming from? Do you guys just take it literally that he's from the "real world" and ergo just more deserving than anyone else?
>>152954345Hey, the man already said he really deserves it. You don't have to sell us on him harder.
>>152965232Anon maybe it's time to face facts that nobody read Death Metal so there's zero evidence to the claim that Superboy Prime has already redeemed himself.
>>152965284Well, fuck you then.
>>152965172>>152965217He got his foot in the door with Batkek, he's solidifying it by continuing to attempt to better himself, in his own Primetime way.
>>152965233>Where is the myopic investment in Superboy Prime even coming from? In this case; your paranoid delusions.You persistently asked a question, now evidently disingenuously.An answer was provided.>Do you guys just take it literally that he's from the "real world" and ergo just more deserving than anyone else?Another baseless flailing projection.Prime is "deserving" of his character potential being fulfilled the same as every other.That is how concepts work by design.The idea this is somehow "undue" because of whatever nebulous sentiment you have against him is not only inherently worthless in discussion but antithetical to the point of writing. So your opinion is doubly wrong.
>>152965307This is just the baggage you have to handle when trying to redeem Superboy Prime. He killed entire planets, some people might just think that's inexcusable.
>>152965284At least here in /co/, his big Death Metal issue was pretty popular, one of the few comic threads that reach bump limithttps://desuarchive.org/co/thread/119822730/
>>152965338So to get invested in redeeming Superboy Prime I have to be invested Death ametal too.This is gonna go over like a lead ballon.
>>152965388We already know you're only here to whine about shit you don't like, it's okay.
>>152965386Well we're running inti the Morbius problem where you're showing me memes and not a reason to actually be emotional invested.
>>152965407Yeah dude I don't fucking like this but I really dislike how fake this all feels.
>>152965424The latter is what really gets to me.
>>152961551he's pretty hot when he is pretending to be a hayseed
>>152965436Just two things constantly talked up about.>oh he's so hot >oh he's such a fun character Like these are the two selling points that need to be emphasized.
Loving this issue. Prime time everyone ?
>>152965617Gosh this shit is already old.
>>152965617More like Pride time.
>>152964791>Punchline doesn't get half the discussion I'm seeing of Prime on TwitterThat's because Prime is the current flavor of the month and will almost certainly be forgotten about in a few weeks, just like Punchline was. Even now he's nowhere near as popular as people here make him out to be.
>>152965689I was going to say this seems off for SBP, but I immediately recalled him weirdly eating a molten uranium rod just to unnerve Sodam Yat.Though to be fair Sodam thrust it down his throat to begin with, so...
>>152965689It's not a good sign when they're this preoccupied with something that has yet to be even hinted at.
I've enjoyed his appearances over the course of the previous storyline and I'm more than happy to see more of him for the time being, but I want him to continue to develop more, and hopefully not just slide in to being too one-note (or two-note if you count "violence and comic references" as two separate things). Can't just constantly assaulting the fourth wall like it owes you money.
>>152965789I don't know why I said "Assaulting" instead of "assault".
>>152965769Shippers have started ships from lesser foundations. Be they gay or straight pairings. If the fans see potential chemistry between them they put them together. Especially if it has a less than zero chance of ever happening in the official material.
>>152965018Johns Sacrificed his entire legacy at DC to Redeem Prime, stop Conner Kent from becoming a tranny, save the entire Lanterns, Shazam and Aquaman comics, and Undo the Injustice done to Wally West and his family done by Damn DilDo and his sabotages til he was fired.And people still hates the cereal lord
>>152965886>Conner KentSpeaking of Kon why has he yet to interact with Prime, proper? I feel that is a massive elephant in the room.
>>152965910Prime is going to save him, and tell him that he is still superboy because there is no one he ever knew better for this job than him and Clark is proud of him and he is family.
>>152965689Gay
>>152965938After that story Didio wrote, it is better to let Kon die/rot.
>>152966235First Tim now Kon. What is it with people here wanting to see the Young Justice members wiped clean from DC?
>>152966268It is because Kon went full infinite crisis era!Prime over Dick, and smugly condemned Nightwing to die forever.
>>152964774based Krypto along with WW redeeming Prime
>>152954252So he is another deadpool/harleyquinn now?
>>152966235>>152966268Dick should have died instead instead of Kon and had Jason permanently take over as Nightwing. We were denied an entire of era of Jason and Kon kino because Dickfags threw a tantrum.
>>152966496Shut the fuck up, Didio. Nobody wants Jason to be Nightwing.
>>152965910I would expect that Conner is simply avoiding him on purpose. Or busy in space.
>>152967071Were I in his shoes I'd at least chew Prime out.
>>152966485yes
>>152964540He's just sexy DeadpoolNot trying to start comic book company wars at all but lately it feels like DC has just been recycling stuff Marvel has done before with strong positive reactions from people (DC's Absolute line is their own very overdue Ultimate universe moreorless, for example)
>>152954434Wasn't he good? Why is he bad again?
>>152967096The whole YJ generation shouldnbe pissed as hell with Prime, specially Tim and Cassie.
>>152967246>Deadpool*GwenpoolAgain, just breaking the 4th wall doesn't make you Deadpool, he has more in common with Gwenpool, and even Ambush Bug, with the constant references to comic books and him being a reader from "the real world".
>>152967334Luthor killed him and he seems to have 4th wall awareness now, that clearly affected him.
>>152965886Go play with your Bo Duke dolls, Geoff
>>152967257>do you believe in fate?
>>152954789Someone once asked Dan to draw Hulk and he said his Hulk is terribleI have to wonder if it's because he can't draw him ugly
>>152954349I've only ever seen this guy in those forgotten villain threads on here I think>>152954313Mora's Lois is cute
>>152954252My dear boy
>>152967246>>152967493Harley is DC's Deadpool these days if anything
>>152967493No he's Deadpool because he lacks any of Gwenpools's vulnerability.
>>152967575Sounds liek you just need to have him do The Professor personality then.
>>152966268Entitled boomers and older gen xers upset that DC had the audacity to push new characters to appeal to the new generations and not specifically to them. A lot of them believe that the characters they personally grew up with should always be in the spotlight and feel very threatened if they perceive other characters encroaching on that.
>>152967668Yeah, and she sucked at it.>>152967676It's not one to one, I'm talking more about them being comic book fans from "the real world" and how that reflects their characters.
>>152967668a psychotic murder clown isn't anything to anyone, son
Prime is too happy right now, how long until he gets into the pain and suffering machine?
>>152965910He’s with Supergirl and Lena Luthor in Kandor
>>152954302why is sexually exploitation like this ok but lois has to have all her sexulaity censored with her breast size reduced and cleavage covered up?
>>152957140And white
>>152954278Heroines not holding back at the sight of a Loisless Supes.Kek
>>152954326Hella wild if this >>152954278 but with Jon instead now that he's back.Oh Glassfishhh~
>>152954342https://co.llection.pics/post/list/gwenpool%20superboy-prime/1
>>152967497Really? I don't remember him doing anything beyond getting sorta redeemed in Authority
>>152954252Based
>>152965910Not just Conner, Power Girl too
>>152967698>Entitled boomers and older gen xers upset that DC had the audacity to push new characters to appeal to the new generations and not specifically to them.

>>152968697It was right after that, Luthor knocked him out and used his psychic powers to mindwipe most people about Superman's secret identity, which killed Manchester Black in the process.That's actually what got Williamson's Superman run started.
>>152954417There's already art of that bottom left panel but with Prime's cock out, very cool.
>>152969238Not at all actually.
>>152967906Pretty sure he's just gonna dick about in this book for a few months and then head over to Legion
>>152969432I still don't think he's going to the Legion.
>>152969442It seemed like that's where his next appearance following the DC KO stuff would be but he's here instead, still being written by Williamson
>>152967551Seethe DiDio>>152967668Read the latest issue's finale The Omega Energy divided her in two and gave her a vision of her future so... white knight harley is coming
>>152969405It was Dan Didio misguided attempts to push Young Justice generation the reason why most of them ended up in an editorial swamp. And Conner needed to die because the Shuster-Siegel demand.
>>152964540A lot of them are just Jasonfags who latched onto him as a new gay ship since he hasn't interacted with Roy, Kyle, or Black Mask in a long ass time and since Dick, Tim, and Bruce are off limits due to it being batcest.
>>152969599I never understood the incessant shilling over Young Justice, it was always garbage and the cartoon itself and the writers hateboner against wally and shilling over bart proved this point
>>152969622>Dick, Tim, and Bruce are off limits due to it being batcest.That's never stopped them.
>>152969622Why Kyle?
>>152969568>Harley spoilerWait what book are you talking about lol, that sounds retarded
>>152969955Remember Countdown?
>>152969973>Remember Countdown?for giggles mostly
>>152969973It is like a fever dream, that you forget once you wake up, but you still remember having it.
>>152969970here
>>152955134
Given that Laurie is out of the picture are they giving Prime a new waifu?
>>152970008>Cyborg shouldn't be a member of the justice league.>Cannot be the tech guy because of Batman.>His connections with the new gods go nowhere.>In N52 he was reduced to a glorified chauffeur.>Reduced to a plot device in adaptations.>Loses all his stories and friendships.>Looks out of place, contrary with the titans or Doom Patrol weirdos >His inclusion in the live-action movie led to Johns ruin.He was right.
>>152954252What a handsome fella
>>152954246Superman 800 was like 10 years ago how are we only on 879?
>>152954434since when that flag tattoo cuts at his hips
>>152969599The problem was taking them away from Peter David and making him persona non grata at DC and basically turning them into the newest generation of Titans instead of keeping them as their own thing. YJ as Titans just didn't work especially since we know Eddie Berganza was basically the editor-ghost writer on Titans.
>>152970502What happened between David and DC?
>>152970582Didio hated the Earth Angel Supergirl by David and once he took control of editorial Peter David's jobs at DC dried up and basically he had to go back to Marvel because of the editors stopped giving him jobs.Several writer including Mark Waid and Larry Hama claim that Didio had a blacklist of 90s writers that he hated, which apparently included Waid. So it's possible that Peter David ended up there too. If he hadn't gotten sick and died perhaps he could have returned to DC after Didio got fired since Dan was the main impediment to him getting work at DC.
>>152970637Then how did Waid end up one of the writers of the weekly 52?
>>152970654This was before Didio had a fallout with Waid over what happened on Flash and also heavy handed ness on 52 in rewriting an entire issue on an arc that Waid had devoted much of his attention. He only came back to DC from Marvel after DC finally fired Didio.
>>152970637Oh, thanks for the explanation.
>>152970725Greg Rucka also was in it after they nearly drove him to suicide.
>>152970725Fact, Johns moved mountains to get DiDio Fired and Waid back if the higher ups decided to fuck him for stopping mags the tranny aberration of writing and troonfying Conner Kent and Superboy.In response, DiDio punished Jon Kent and Tim Drake.There must be a ton of dirt from the wildstorm days that Lee couldn't do shit as CEO to have fired DiDio early on, and Warner had to intervene to fire his ass.
>>152954278Lois is hotter than usual in this issue.
>>152970833Didio promised Rucka the Earth One Wonder Woman book if he would do a bunch of writing jobs that Rucka didn't want to do apparently Action Comics with Flamebird and Nightwing during the New Krypton thing and possibly Blackest Night Wonder Woman.Of course Dan in a power move gave Earth One to GMoz. Rucka had already gotten the artist for the book when he learned about this and just quit on DC.
>>152970893Gonna miss >pic Unless they claim that Zod losing his powers was temporary because Clark did it, and Lois can be superwoman in her own free will Because she is now half kryptonian without the weaknesses of kryptonians
Superwoman >>152970945 or Witchfire for SBP?
>>152961551Yes
>>152970961Prime Loves Lois and Clark, and he'd punch anyone who tried to OMD and BND them.As he did in the past.
I don't want to brush aside Williamson or anything but how much of Mora's art is carrying this?
>>152971086A bit of both, Mora even carried transformers after DWJ left
>>152971086Not a fan of his usually but his style fits this character
>>152970502>>152970637I think David feels double wronged because his pitch for the Teen Titans cartoon was passed over for the one from Murakami.Also I don't past the idea that Didio went in a wrestling match with David for how keep developing Connor/Kon El as a character.
>>152970851This is fanfiction and there is no evidence of Johns doing any of that.
>>152971513>I think David feels double wronged because his pitch for the Teen Titans cartoon was passed over for the one from Murakami.Is there any information about this pitch?>Also I don't past the idea that Didio went in a wrestling match with David for how keep developing Connor/Kon El as a character.NuKon is entirely based on Johns, down to the hairstyle.
>>152956378>final crisis was worseNo it wasn't
>>152956378>People knew it was bad but identity crisis was worse so they gave it a passFTFY
>>152954405>You're the best, Lois. That's why you had a series last over a hundred issues once.>I hope you get your own book again soon. A Daily Planet special or something.I love this part. I really do.
>>152971570>NuKon is entirely based on Johns, down to the hairstyle.I was talking about the last 6 issues of Superboy's book that Didio co-wrote with Palmiotti. The one that starts with Cass about to shower and Kon is doing something in the shower. Just to justify the free ogle. David was still writting Young Justice at the time.
>>152971528Then why did it take until 2020 for Didio to get fired when the New 52 and the constant onboarding of Jim Lee and his X-Men buddies only harmed the long-term health of the company?
>>152971908There is also the stories of DiDio Intentionally sabotaging Beast Machines saying that hasbro wanted it.
>>152970061She's a poisoned chalice of a character now due to how shit she's been handled but at some point there probably was a route for her to become a Robin trying to redeem herself I guess
>>152971943>"Dammit! We're doing too good on this Beast Wars stuff, how can we instantly make less money??" Some Hasbro guy said calmly>"I know a guy." Another Hasbro guy said ominouslyI'm never letting it go
>>152971908Because COVID. Otherwise they would have never fired him. lol
>>152971943Why would the companies care if they're putting out a worse product
>>152971943Beast machines was better than beast wars. Beast wars if you missed an episode fuck you, beast machines was more continuity heavy so it was fine
>>152971672Yes it was. It was nothing happening except oh suddenly darkseid is a big threat and a multiverse signularity out of nowhere and we beat him and now w giant vampire came from nowhere and got killed instantlyThe only good part is rogues and lo3w
>bump limit reachedIt's a Superboy-Prime miracle!
>>152972418And naturally and without a schizo like the spider man and venom threads.
>>152959749>Retcon punches Paige and the Williams run out of existence>Brings back proper Pre-Flashpoint Power GirlI will forgive DC if this happens
>most antis be like "real superboy prime fans love him as both a hero AND a villain" only to then make him a wholesome comic nerd golden retriever puppy boyfriend babes that is a toxic blackmailing abusive rapist boyfriend>Account based on SEA.The rumors are true.
>>152973175what
>>152973237New DC fans are mostly Asian and South American fujo pirates.>i actually used to talk about how superboy prime should force jason into a relationship with him because jason owes him for the resurrection lmao this is the way primehood should be it should be pure rape and that's part of the reason i don't like antis' version of itHere is another anecdote.
>>152973301probably more like comics in general. fujos are the only relatively unsaturated demographic who might be interested in men in tight outfits being dramatic with each other.
Superboy Prime board btw
>>152973301I think you're focusing on one very specific group.
>>152973562It is what I got by searching superboy prime
>>152973770Search results are personalized.
>>152970961Red Hood.
>>152967486This especially.
>>152974422Red Hood is for the obligatory homoerotic Superbat friendship>Bruce and Clark>Babs and Kara>Tim and Kon>Damian and Jon
