Bump if you're reading.
>”You must accept what you have done.”
Fun fact, twitter made such a huge stink over Linda's eye color that they recolored it to brown
>>153334356>linda's brother has the anime boy look yeah, i'm betting he's going to be important beyond just character development for linda
>>153334320>Go to LOCG>Score of this issue is 3.2>Well fuck, I know Absolute Flash is considered the weakest book but people were pretty optimistic over Lemire pulling it around last issue what could he have possibly done to...>Open threadOh....
And that's it. If you liked these, support your LCS or whatever.
Absolute Cringe
>>153334419That's it?
>>153334416Another great issue. This is easily the best Absolute series.
I've read the first 4 of 5 issues of Absolute WW and didn't really like any of these. Does the comic get better?
>>153334441>>153334448I like this for Diana, it's a cool addition to her general power set.
>>153334546Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
>>153334470Steve looks like such a faggot lmao
>>153334470Trevor, there is literally no reason to pose like that, you hussy.
>>153334546They're gonna fuck aren't they?
>>153334970I was hooked since the end of the tpb. If you're that far in, maybe it isn't for you. I'm loving it but I love mythology and what they're doing with Diana
>>153334326Why'd they change Linda's eye color
>>153334507I thought it was a good issue, what are people upset about now?
>>153334470I do not like how this artist draws men, they look more effeminate than the women do kek>>153334416Linda's improved this book tenfold imo
>>153335696The upside down mirror world stuff was a bit annoying to read, otherwise it was a good issue though. Art was very anime-y which I'm sure some folks won't like either but the entire Absolute line has a lot of that anyway
>>153334345>>153334361>>153334366Jeremy Adams did it better
>>153335720Linda a cute.
>>153334546damn is thompson gonna do it? i thought diana was gonna get with steve after issue #2 but they've barely interacted since then
>>153335696Upside down mirror shit and decompression
>>153335947>see two women interacting>so goonerbrained that you need to have them be fuckingNo wonder she had to come out and explain that Scarlet and Jinx were just good friends
>>153335958>want comics to be more like manga>get upset when they have manga pacingYou all just want to whine, that's what you really want.
>>153334470Zesty ass Steve
>>153334511>>153334517I hope Barbara's transformation into Cheetah isn't just her being turned against her will.
>>153335973WSJ comes out weeklyMonthly manga have more pages"It's better in a trade" is a poisonous mentality and decompressed issues have to be earned Absolute Flash is seen as the weak link with a sluggish pacing, decompressed issues don't help
>>153334416Well, we obviously can't call this the Reverse Flash. We need to call him Hsalf.
>>153336206Guess you should cry more, that'll fix everything.
>>153334546>Able to literally turn into her motherDo you think she'd pull this move out during sex
>>153334556>>153334562Holy shit a fucking gravital
>>153334546GAY
>>153336273What could go wrong?
>>153335958Pacing of this and last month's issue was fine imo, especially compared to a lot of the earlier issuesBigger concern for me is when all this set up Lemire is doing will get a payoff, a bunch of stuff teased before didn't get any elaboration yet at the end of the arc in the end.
>>153335696Barely anything happens
>>153334356HE's a junkie, just give it up.
>>153334511Cool paneling as always
>>153334517>steadying herself against the panelHeh
>>153335146>>153335720>>153336041Just imagine Trevor as a Jojo character and you'll feel more comfortable with the look.
>>153334345>>153334356>>153334361>>153334366They should have not done this gimmick for digitalOP should have rotated it by 180 degrees
>>153334416Uh oh, this is going to be a problem, and my be the true birth of Reverse-Flash. But this issue is a marked improvement from the rest of the series. We got some actual development, a good story that moves, and not as much time wasted with exposition, and making use of its setting. Hopefully they can keep it up and make up for its reputation of being the slowest book.
>>153334970If you didn't enjoy WW so far, I doubt you'll change your mind now. WW is probably the most straight forward title so if you didn't get it from the start, it won't change later on. I'm enjoying it.
>>153334450Comic Twitter is the worst
>>153334521Old man moe
Punk rock Zatanna is so good
>>153335947I don't think DC would allow it. She talked about it in a recent interview
>>153337457Sucks if true
>>153334970I felt it peaked with the first arc, has never been terrible but hasn't hit those highs again either. Maybe my tastes are weird though, I liked Flash this monthThis current arc just makes me want a Zatanna spinoff more than anything else
>>153334511>>153334517She was told to run to safety at the very start of this mess, don't blame Diana for your imminent fursuit.
>>153334949>This is easily the best Absolute seriesLemire please
>>153335947I've said it before but it feels like there is a writer/artist disconnect with this Tompson wants the yuri route but Sherman seems to be a Stevefag She's gonna fuck both of them
>>153334517Giantess feet. Lord almighty
>>153337976>nooo you can't just like things i don'tYou have to be 18+ to post here.
>>153338013Wouldn't even be mad if AWW was polyamorous.
>>153334450why was her eye color an issue?
>>153334470It'd be funny if he fucked up the spell
>>153334416So that's why that one issue showed evil mirror Wallly in Wallys reflection
>>153338013If Sherman wants Steve and Diana together why's Steve so zesty this issue?
flash continues to be shit
>>153338104Blue eyes makes her look too whiteBrown eyes is something most Asians actually have (and is her eye color in the mainline comics as well)
>>153334326>Kent farmI forget, was it Absolute Mirror Master (or one of his clones I guess?) or mainline Mirror Master who's in cahoots with Absolute Brainiac?>>153334552Did Dr Poison really end up all way in outer space lolWas weird that he even was on this combat team, didn't seem like that type of character >>153334540Zatara even surviving is surprising, almost all the old guard heroes have been getting fucked up in this universe
No, shitAbsolute Wally and Linda, mainly the way both are drawn gives this energy.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZ5oG0V-0No
>>153337591Also the contrast between Steve, Etta, and Gia actually helping people while she's just sitting and refusing to listen.

>>153338716That's how men look sometimes in female oriented media. This is like asking why does Power Girl have a boob window, you know why. So that readers can eat well
>>153334416Evil Mirror Linda sexoAlso how the fuck does Mirror Man survive Mirror Flash when he pops in? I'm guessing they only want to kill their originals or something is the excuse they'll use.
>>153334470That fucking Jojo pose in the middle panel lmao.
>>153334470gay
>>153334949The pacing is starting to get better which was Absolute Flash's worst issue IMO, but I still wouldn't call it the best Absolute title by any measure. Wally's mostly just getting dragged back and forth by the plot with very little agency, which got tedious long ago.
>>153334450She had brown eyes to begin with. The colorist just fucked up when they made them blue.
>>153334441>>153334448Hopefully something is actually done with this
>>153341256I'm sure it'll come up again. Cale even speculated Diana used "mind control" around people back in Absolute Evil.
>>153339626Mainline mirror master. Absolute mm brought main mirror master to absolute earth and the main one teamed up with brainiac
>>153335947>>153335969>>153337457>>153337510https://www.cbr.com/dc-writer-confirms-absolute-wonder-woman-queer/>“I am writing her as a queer character — that’s not the same as saying DC will definitely allow her to be canon queer on the page…," Kelly Thompson said about Absolute Wonder Woman in an interview on Near Mint Condition's YouTube channel. "We're taking it on an 'as-it-goes' basis. There has been some frustration for me on this point," she explained when touching on the notion of DC Comics limiting sapphic representation in Absolute Wonder Woman and in Diana's story.>When understanding Diana's identity a bit deeper, Thompson mentioned that she thinks that noting Absolute Wonder Woman's attraction to women is "very obvious" when fans are "reading the book." She stepped back to further assess Diana's relationship with sexual orientation as a whole, saying that "Diana is beyond thinking about people's gender as a construct. She's just so far beyond that; she grew up in Hell with little demon pets. She's not going to think 'Oh, I really love this person, it's too bad they don't have the right equipment," with the term "equipment" alluding to her potential partner's anatomy.>"She's just not built that way," Thompson assessed when continuing to explain Diana's approach to romantic partnership. "She's a unique person in the world, in the universe, and it seems truly laughable to me to be like 'Oh, no, she's straight,' or 'she's a lesbian.'" The writer then added that presuming that Absolute Wonder Woman aligning with a concrete label is "the antithesis of Diana," though it's "impossible" for her not to write her as "queer."
>>153342083Doesn't matter if she's queer, Absolute Wondy is literally made for me.
>>153342137Didn't you read, she doesn't give a damn about your equipment
>>153342083The interview they pulled this fromhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kN_fjJ7GBLs
This Zatanna story has been a waste of time, cool design but the art in AWW sucks
>>153334470Why does he look like that
>>153335510they forgot she's korean
>>153337355I got the floppy and it's fine but the thought of dudes reading this on their monitors or something made me laugh, that sucks. >>153342083Diana's reaction to Steve when he first landed on the island was the thirstiest she's acted all series so far though, kinda odd. On the otherhand Steve quickly moved into the background since then I guess. Him learning some witchcraft this issue is actually sort of a novel idea by the way.
>>153343240I put the pages in photoshop and flipped em to read, but the art was great so it wasn't too annoyingI feel like I enjoy the development of giving Wally another goal but it felt too quick, ironically enough. The clone idea is fun at least
>>153342220Yet
why does wally look like a girl
>>153334470Hecate pulled the long con, Diana was a means to gain more worshippers
>>153345795>twink Wally>twink Clark>buff twink Bruce>gay Diana>gay (bi?) GL girlDarkseid has an agenda clearly
>>153346006Yeah but Linda is cute.
>>153334416Whoops abs mirror master probably didn't think that would happen.
>>153346006You don't know what twink means. You shouldn't use that word if you don't know what it means.
>>153346006>twink>Bruce Wayne>Diana not being biThis is very good bait, good job anon.
>>153346006Post an image of a someone you don't consider a twink
>>153346006well diana's already bi in the main continuity so he didn't really change anything with that
>>153345795>>153346006There are folks who seem to think that Wally was intended to be LGBTBBQ or whatever before Lemire rewrote stuff (and we do know that Lemire rewrote parts of the planned story for this book short notice, to some extent) but as far as I can tell that mostly just seems to be rooted in him being a pretty boy?
>>153347999I can't tell if it's posters who grew up in the 90s, or people trolling sometimes. We've had the occasional pretty boy for decades, appeal and an artist's general style will do a lot of the heavy lifting. People are too stuck up on the culture war shit, man
>>153334432>>153334441>>153334448>>153334455>>153339986>>153337591this could potentially explain Barbara's behaviour, she's so infatuated she lacks any kind of self-preservation

>>153336206>Absolute Flash is seen as the weak linkAbso GL and Superman are worse
>>153339824They even got the same hair color. Lol
>>153345795Absolute Wally looks like Ichigo Kurosaki when the Bleach began, bonus for Linda literally looking like Rukia.And this is intentional.
>>153348363I think Superman has been alright latelyGL is just very inconsistent, has good issues and also shit onesThe conclusion to Flash's first big arc didn't even feel like a conclusion, Thawne wasn't dealt with, we still don't know anything about how Flash's powers work or what Stillpoint even is or Wally's role with it is, Wally hasn't resolved anything with his dad yet, on top of stuff like the Legion of Doom headquarters or that alien corpse Eleanore found having no explanation. I don't get why Lemire handled it the way he did. I've liked the past couple issues but I'm wondering if we'll even get any payoff for the stuff being set up or if we'll just get blue balled again
>>153348199Huh, you're probably right. Definitely would be an unintentional abuse on Diana's part that she'd be bummed about, turning her fangirl into her fangirl because of subconscious magic and then she gets Cheetah'd because of it.
>>153348199Diana is gonna be beating herself up a lot soon. The break she felt because of Zatanna could mean that she hurt her bond to Hecate, perhaps? The wording felt really ominous
>>153348508>Thawne wasn't dealt with, we still don't know anything about how Flash's powers work or what Stillpoint even is or Wally's role with it is, Wally hasn't resolved anything with his dad yet, on top of stuff like the Legion of Doom headquarters or that alien corpse Eleanore found having no explanation.I think its unreasonable to expect resolutions to all those plot points before the 12th issue
