Superboy Prime is a millennial that says dumb things. That's a core part of his character

It's still cringe regardless

there are plenty of great millennial writers
they're not getting hired to write big 2 capeshit

This could have been written better even to get the same result

every fucking time, I wish we could split pre-1990 and post 1990 Millenials. It's so bizarre thinking I'm the same generation as someone who was 18 when Pokemon came out or didn't browse Newgrounds in school or just plain wasn't exposed to the internet before high school.

Isn't it weird?

We have such needy desperate craving from the Big 2 for young persons engagement and appeal.
And always writing by people who are at their very youngest mid-forties. Most often approaching their sixties. Buscemi is the rule not the exception.

fuck womansplaining at men but seething if you tell them they did something wrong in theory.

The new ASM issue did something similar. Aunt May said "mansplaining"
And considering the context it didn't even make sense

That's literally what Prime would say. He's not supposed to be eloquent, he's kind of a shallow geek.

He's a zoomer now

>>154296035
One would expect a meaningful moment in a redemption arc where a character accepts responsibility for mass murder not to be written so stupidly goofy.

No, something cultural.

Calling someone a pretentious pseud for having different tastes in comic book from you is the pseudest, most pretentious thing of all.

>>154291557
gotta be an edit

I can't wait until we get the genius that is zoomer writing.

They're retconning it I guess to make Prime's redemption more palatable unless that's just supposed to be the way Prime remembers it to try and absolve himself of any blame. Prime ripped his arm off, the entire sequence in IC is Prime being a retarded manchild throwing a tantrum and maiming and killing a bunch of people while he was doing it.

Johns would then turn this whole thing with Risk into a running gag where he became a criminal because the trauma and pain from his injury made him addicted to pain pills and then Prime just casually rips his other arm off in what was clearly intended to be a comedic moment.
>>
I forgot that getting his other arm ripped off was the last time Risk was ever seen until Taylor randomly used him in his Nightwing run and had a random fucking mook kill him because Taylor is a hateful little fag.

Im ESL so I might be wrong, but shouldnt it be "I have been afraid of losing control and of that happening again" ?
Also isnt "A bunch of people" very casual for what he is saying / how it influenced him? Shouldnt it be "Many" or a more specific ammount?

They're not, this whole thing is Manchester trying to bait Prime into old habits.

This could've been a cool scene but that writing is atrocious wow
>>
>>154298838
Not a single statement was made about your taste, you utter retard.
>>
>>154301545
Why's he drawn like a fucking shota twink? Goddamn why are modern DC comics written and drawn for gays?
>>
>>154301745
So, yours isn't the 'hot take' he's talking about, obviously.
>>
>>154301745
Same reason why he's wearing his old suit?
>>
>>154301693
Your exchange with the other anon came down to a difference in taste. He thought the comic should've been written another way because his tastes are different from yours, and you insinuated he was pretentious then called him a pseud over it.
>>
>>154301511
>Also isnt "A bunch of people" very casual for what he is saying / how it influenced him?
Yes, it is intentionally sounding casual for that tone. Whether it should have been going for that or not is another question.
>>
>>154291557
it's prime time is a cool catchphrase tho
>>
>>154302392
I asked him(You) to explain his position, which he(You) couldn't, only spouting more pretentious pseud speak.
It is what it is.
>>
>>154301745
Every stupid decision the big two have made post recession has been based on the belief that comics will eventually somehow align with the rest of publishing and attract a predominantly female audience. “Not working? Make it gayer!”
>>
>>154305395
If they wanted a more female audience, they need to bring a lot more relationships into their stories.
Look at Spider-Mans recent runs, they are infamously shit at it. Slott and the BND boys are not bringing women in the door.
>>
>>154301745
Because he’s supposed to be younger in this memory I guess
