Remember when DC tried to push Kon/M'gann for like two months and then quit?
Trying to synergize with YJ is suicide
>>156234365idk they should make Jackson into Kaldur
>>156234354I remember that story was going to soft launch that failed Trans Conner pitch https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/139897629
>>156234365more or less, the personalities of the show characters were nothing like the comic ones.
>>156234354Ask me, this is what Marvel's biggest problem is right now. All their stuff is trying to synergize with the MCU and it's hurting everything. You can have occasional bits, but let the games, shows, and comics be seperate.
>>156235439Nowadays they're doing Rivals synergy as well
>>156234365My favorite are the Artemis/Wally shippers who want Artemis in main canon not realizing she already is and is a villain married to another villain, and that Wally has been married for almost over 25 years.
>>156234354Not exactly synergy, but this was also meant to be the setup to Kon becoming a trans woman.I'm glad it was all shut down.
>>156235492>Not exactly synergy, but this was also meant to be the setup to Kon becoming a trans woman.What?Also the term is troon
>>156234354The style feels too recent to be trendy synergy with the animated showWhat the fuck is going on with Kon's hair?
>>156235439>>156235453Feige himself told them to stop the MCU synergy once the new editorial took over so hopefully we'll see less of it in the coming years.
>>156235857>>156236062https://bleedingcool.com/comics/dc-pitch-conner-kent-superboy-trans-woman-superman/This storyline was about 3 years ago?Mags Viaggio pitched this storyline where Conner was feeling alienated as SuperboyAnd was going to go on a journey where at the end he magically became a woman all at once, going by the name SkyrocketDC nixed the idea when they realized how dumb it was, but the first two chapters (where Conner had apparently started dating M'gann off panel) were actually published before someone with a brain realized what was happening and hit the brakes
>>156234354My biggest problem with this story was the implication that Kon was still going to high school, specially when Jon was already set up as starting college.It's retarded what DC has done with these characters.
>>156235457The key thing to remember is that cartoon watchers have an psychotic aversion to actually reading the source material their adaptations come from.
>>156235412Fpbp
>>156236128Jon went to the future as a 12 year old and came back a 20something because DC is terrified of actually having tween characters.
>>156236138The vast majority of people have an aversion to the comics, because the vast majority of all comics since the birth of generation X have been utter shit. They would rather live in a universe where, with a few exceptions, pretty much every comic plotline since 1970 didnt happen. And they are largely correct.
>>156236166Jon didn't go to the future. He went into space with his grandpa/Jor-El/Mr. OzAnd then spent years imprisoned in a volcano being tortured by Ultraman from Earth-3But the time passed differently between the two realities so 8 years there was only a few weeks on Prime Earth
>>156236199>Wally West being happily married with children while also being one of the most highly respected men to carry the mantle of The Flash is utter shitMaybe follow the conversation you're replying to before posting next time.
>>156236238Okay; Jon went into space with his grandpa/Jor-El/Mr. Oz, spent years imprisoned in a volcano being tortured by Ultraman from Earth-3 (where time runs differently) and came back a 20something because DC is terrified of actually having tween characters.Got it.
Can't believe I'm the first the mention this shitshowRemember when DC did the most convoluted shit with comic Red X, 15 years after the show ended?>make four Red X's>first one is Dick>second and third are unknown and all we know about them is one died and the other manipulated Brick>fourth one is Brick, some literally who cares student who was meant to be Dick’s son in Future State>very blatantly leaving two unknown so readers could theorize they were Grant and JasonAll DC had to do was have an unknown guy be roguish and charming and maybe have Dick be Red X somewhere in his history, but they do all that shit instead lmao.
>>156235457To be fair, there are like three Artemis's in DC.
>>156234354A shiny black costume with a high neck is pretty kinky though
>>156236251NTA but Wally is a pretty obvious exception, being he was the main victim of the focused DiDio loathing he got to bounce back fast once he was gone.
>>156236118>Troon only did synergy to jerk off to Transbian fanficGod he must have pitched an obscene amount of almost-porn to get DC a lapse of common sense instead of biting the bullet
>>156236822This. >"Who the hell is Red X?">"Oh, back before I became Nightwing, the Titans would do training exercises where I'd dress up as "Red X" and set up fake crimes so they could learn better detective skills.">"Okay, well if Red X is just some fake character, why the hell is he currently breaking into the Hall of Justice?">We never find out who it is, but it's someone with intimate knowledge of both superhero AND supervillian locationsIt's that simple.
>>156236822Who the fuck names a character Brick without any irony
>>156237452He was Brick because he's the son of Dick.Duh.
>>156236822>>156237409Titansfags aren’t gonna like what I have to say, but comic Red X should’ve just been a Nightwing overarching story and Bludhaven character instead. The character and mantle gains nothing from being shoved into an overstuffed team book (that hasn’t even had more than 5 good runs in its entire history), whereas both would benefit greatly from having to share page time with just Dick (ie the originator of the mantle anyway) with Dick having more a detective story in trying to find out his identity.
>>156236822>>156237409I honestly don't even think having multiple characters be Red X is a bad idea but they went about it in the worst way possible.A modern adult Red X as an enemy for Dick makes sense, the whole recycled drama from the 5G rejects wasn't necessary, and we sure as hell didn't need a 3rd secret Red X to pretend Jason used the identity at some point.I still think it was meant to be Grant, even though he kinda talks like Lance Bruner.
>>156237651Honestly, that works just as fine. Giving Red X the Titans connection is really only to acknowledge where the character came from, but having him be an exclusive Nightwing baddie makes just as much sense.
>>156237571Is the daughter of Dick a Tick?
>>156237665They could just have made it Grant or Lance instead of inventing a whole one-dimensional character, comics writers are allergic to basic reasoning
>>156237697No, she’s a Prick.
>>156237727Maybe it would've hit harder if he was actually Dick's son.
>>156237727Should have just been Nite-Wing.
>>156237651Tbh that makes more sense. Even in the TT03 show, he was a Robin thing and a Robin storyline. And all the other Titans there were significantly underpowered compared to their comic counterparts. Comic Red X poses way less of a threat to comic Titans unless they're heavily nerfed, they upgraded all his weapons, and/or they had him leading some villain team.>>156237754It was probably supposed to. IIRC the idea of it was a previous Red X hated Dick and then groomed his son into hating him.
>>156237754I disagree. "I'm your father" only works when it's done well, not good writing itselfIf a writer wants "villain is son of the hero" plot just storage it for another story instead of putting all your eggs in one basket.
>>156237806>previous Red X hated Dick and then groomed his son into hating himSo Jason doing some trolling after Dick slept around?
>>156235453Good. I wanna see chunk Squirrel Girl in the comics.
>>156236822>Dick has a son named Brick>Brick Graysonkek
>>156238437>Dick has a lot of bastard children>They all suspiciously has names that end with "ick"
>>156234365Even in the show I didn't feel that shit. Mind-rapist ends up getting what she wants after first attempting to subvert her target's will? Fuck outta here. That's like a dude attempting to rape a chick, and in the end, with no coercing, she gives it up, and it's viewed as beautiful and wholesome. Meg'ann should have been allowed to stay, but kept at a cold distance by the other team members. How would YOU treat a useful team member who attempted to brainwash someone into loving them? Mission interaction only. Off the clock, I'm leaving the building and living elsewhere, lest their creeper ass suddenly walks in on me working out and orients on ME as a target. Curse these abs.
>>156237730But she loves to SPOON
