>”All I hear are heartbeats.”
Bump if you're reading.
>>155277301Is Abs GL good?
>"NO. [MAN.] ESCAPES."
>>155277329....okay what is it with the Absolute Universe villains trafficking children?>>155277384>>155277389You think Silver Banshee will return proper as a Brainiac creation since this seems more like a prototype?
And that's it. If you liked these, support your LCS or whatever.
>>155277428Absolute villains are evil made from evil, and what's more evil than that? Plus it makes them getting punished feel even better.
>>155277301You know, as an interesting side-note, I can't help but think of a Korean manwha I read recently.>Guy in a world of superpowers gets bullied>Gets thrown into the warp by his bullies and fights endless shitloads of monsters>Comes back for revenge six years later, killing hundreds of people. In the final fight against the last bully, he kills him and...>A girl whose boyfriend he killed, who awakened with even better powers, kills him>The next half (around 20 chapters) is her moving past her grief, taking up modelling and part-time superheroine work, and having casual relationships with men>The ending is her being asked on an interview >"Do you regret killing that guy?">"I understand bullying drove him to this and society failed him, but fuck him. Now if you'll excuse me, I got a date.">THE ENDThe whole "So I became part of the system, and the iconoclast was killed" just really struck me, for some reason.
The revenge fantasies are just outta control these days
>>155277389I'm kind of predicting if Toyman comes back he'll look fucked up and keeps getting fucked up ala Baxter Stockman in the 4kids TMNT series
>>155277428Children need to be punished for their weakness and innocence.
Absolute Cringe
>>155277345>>155277359>>155277389God, that cape is so fucking KINO as always
Do you think that the Manhunters and the light spectrum will have anything to do with the "Martians"?
>>155277392I don't think this is where the book is going but I really hope we don't get the evil authoritarian Superman schtick that feels so played out nowadays. Pretty sure that isn't the sort of story Aaron intends to do here but who knows.
>>155277438This is cool but it's yet another plotline in a book that has way too much shit going on
The art in AGL keeps changing and it always looks oddASM revolves between two artists too but they're both pretty good at least
>>155277428what is with real america covering up child trafficking?
>>155277329Supes looking super gay here
>>155277374>>155277375>>155277379fucking kino
>>155277486>>155277488Temu Smoker
>>155278152The artist's colors and general composition are nice but he seems hellbent on drawing Clark as a fat-assed twunk with his suit being tight in all the inappropriate places for some reason
>>155277354This is a child's understanding of how money works. You'd absolutely destroy an economy by injecting massive amounts of cash into it like that.
>>155278293half of America thinks tariffs are paid by the other country
>>155278293Clark is a child pretty muchThough there is a good chance this is actually how Jason Aaron thinks I suppose
i dont understand AGL
>>155277416sex hair
>>155277697This is the Christian American justification for abuse
>>155278807Neither do the characters themselves We're supposed to be getting "answers" next issue so there's that
>>155277398not really. parts of it are good, but so the pacing so far has been schizophrenic and the story felt quite disjointed
>>155277495Thanks for the dump, OP. This was a nice issue and I feel like I'm starting to come around on Agent Zero. But again, her story feels convuluted and confusing, and bouncing between soace and Earth makes it more jarring. I can understand the Manhunters and Simon Baz, but Ewing is handling "Bad Idea #0" in a less effective way than Absolute MM. Quite frankly, Absolute GL feels like it's two books shoved into one and they both be seperated to manage the story. Just make Absolulte Authority already.Also, I'm getting worried for Cameron here. Feels like she's getting close to the edge and going mad herself. And before I forget, this book gets points off for Ewing's overuse of pop-culture references. Makes it seem like he's using them to cover up weak dialogue and pad out the issue.
>>155277305Who are you telling me things, fucking Darkseid?
>>155277428The writers think it’s something that will make the reader understand these people are absolutely, unforgivably shit.
>>155277488Look Ma, I’m a Warren Ellis character!
>>155277379>chibi Silver Banshee
>>155277441wow it took some fucking effort to hit him right on his bulletproof helmet instead of LITERALLY ANYWHERE ELSE.god fucking dammit, I hate this character
>>155277770Nah, that's a mindfucker.
>>155277441The artist probably should have chosen a different gun since Welrods are bolt-action and we never see her unlock it, which is kind of important for this scene to work.It's not that the weapon was chosen at random since they do use a silencer onomatopoeia, so they were aware of it unique function
>>155278183>a fat-assed twunk with his suit being tight in all the inappropriate places I fail to see the problem here
>>155277770probably
>>155277396Ayo where's Lex
>>155278061Lindsey is the most inexperienced artist out on the absolute line, so the entire book does feel like he's still finding his footing; it doesn't help that Ewing has more ideas per issue than pages
Absolute okay
Not bad
>>155277354>poorest communities>is throwing money on FUCKING COPACABANA>ONE OF THE RICHEST AREAS OF BRAZIL
>>155279407Where do you think? Being tormented
Absolute Superman's no-kill rule is becoming more annoying than original Batman's.
>>155278311Then the hell are retaliatory tariffs from imposed by other countries for?
>>155277428Our real life villains set a new bar for villainy
>>155279858Tariffs for the US are a bad idea because people in the US consume a lot and lots of business rely on that massive consumption. Literally day-to-day expenses rely on that consumption to continue, especially from other countries. If the US makes foreign products harder to buy in the US, then if you make US product harder to be bought in other countries, you are hitting the market twice over, because other countries aren't as ravenous to buy stuff as the US, so keeping sales up internationally for most american companies (Save super cutting edge tech) is incredibly hard because China, Europe, etc can provide similarly good products and services for a lower price, or even local options.America's economy and purchase power is built on them being able to buy things from other country on the cheap while the other countries still make profits because the dollar is the "world" currency and usually high value. So tariffs, both ways, hurt the US more than the other countries.
>>155277396Image saved.Ferreyra is good, might re-read Gotham by Midnight.
>>155277444Rapeman canon in Absolute Universe.Hail, Darkseid.
I liked this month's AGL but I can't really make sense of things anymore. Guess I'll just wait for the next one before I try speculating again.
