How hard will DC Rivals flop?
>>722298621i don't understand what the fuck am i looking at
>>722298690Inker and colorist for the comic misunderstood the pencil drawing.
>>722298621This image makes me feel like I’m having a stroke.
>>722298690
>>722298690Batman getting Naargh'd out on a Thursday night
DC characters have even less physical diversity than Marvel does, which has less than Overwatch. If you thought delineating different character silhouettes in Rivals was hard, DC Rivals would give you an aneurysm.
>>722298621Why does he look like that? Is man retarded?
>>722298690Inker fucked up the drawing, can't find the original sketch but here is the fixed version.
Didn't they already try this with Infinite Crisis and that game failed before it got out of beta because the cash shop was so fucking oppressive. Literally had whales mowing over entire teams by themselves because they spent thousands of dollars
>>722300065>>722301267The intended version is still stupid.
>>722298621whats wrong with his face? Is this an edit or sloppa, why are the eyes so fucking weird
>>722298621>DC Rivals flop
Better characters than marvel slop. Better waifus too.
>>722301869Better ingredients better pizza
>>722298621It hinges entirely on what art direction they pursue and how vicious the microtransactions and P2W are. If they go Suicide Squad or Arkham art style, they're hoed. If they go DC Online or Infinite Crisis with the microtransactions, they're hoed.
>>722298621Why is he crying?
>>722300065>Don't be the maskShe doesn't get him at all. The mask is the real him.
>>722302176Catwomans body count got to him after realizing half the thugs on the streets he fights vaginally penetrated her for the price of a game pass subscription.
>>722302176thingken of jokre
>>722302431>the thugs on the streets he fights vaginally
>>722302176Damien accidentally killed Dick.
>>722302176Someone killed the joker
>>722298621I somehow doubt they'll do the smart thing and lean into an actual comics look with superheroic men and women
>>722302639You get what you get boy. I ain't makin it pretty for yah.
>>722302651can't he just drop him in the lazarus pits to bring him back?
>>722298621I can't even care to speculate about something that won't happen for another 5 years.
>>722302689They'll just use Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League characters and assets to make their hero shooter
>>722302431You are retarded. Cattleman's thing is that she is a tease. Who NEVER puts out. So when she actually loves bruce/batman it's all the more poignant because she stops being a tease and comes out and just be's his woman.
>>722298690Batman killing the Jonkler
If you don't have Power Girl, Zatanna, Wonder Woman and Harley Quinn in sexy attire with hourglass figures just stop in pre-production.
>>722302959>he actually believes this.Pussywoman is an unironic whore lol.
>>722302959He's just trying to fetish post.
>>722303017He's completely correct. Let me guess, your knowledge extent is two half remembered greentexts?
>>722302764No. Lazurus pits are for the dying. Damien broke dick's neck and killed him instantly.
>>722303017Go away, you retard. She wouldn't be so sexy if she was a whore. Her cemme fatale thing is because she ISN'T a whore. That's what sells her sexiness.
>>722303140How does one accidentally break another person's neck?
>>722303210>she looks sexy because she isn't a whoreWhat is this logic lol? Why do you think hookers dress like that ?
>>722303220By being a cocky, retarded, vicious little shit who NEVER understood the restraint 'nightwing' or 'batman' put into fighting goons so they DIDN'T kill them.
>>722303276>hookers are the only people in the entire world that dress in any way provocatively
>>722302651Accidentally how?
>>722303276Whores are disgusting. No one actually likes whores. You idiot.It's also a proven maxim of haute couture. 'Less is more'. Actually showing off skin and trashy dressing like a whore isn't sexy. No one desires a woman leaking 50 different guys goop out of all her holes.
>>722303370By snapping his neck with his hands.
It'll be such a fuckin waste. DC has one of the finest rosters of waifus in the world.
>>722298621>currently more players than the fresh borderlands 4>called flop
>>722302431Batman is a better man for accepting catwoman.
>>722303474Her right shoulder is dislocated.
>>722303474I'll agree with you, but I will say there is a limited variation in their bodies.While big-tits, thin waists, and wide hips are very nice, when everyone has them it can get repetitive.Marvel has a bit more variation, even if it's mostly limited to muscles, skin colors, tails, and antennae.I just want Wonder Woman to be muscular without having her face look like a dude or her T+A be tiny. She's made from clay sculpted by gods! Give her the whole package, dammit!
>Batman Rivals Post your most wanted then
>>722303830While they went VERY heavy on the muscles on Angela in Marvel Rivals, she still has a feminine face, big tits and ass, and a wide hips.
>>722303881Raven
>>722298621DC’s in the fucking shit since they hired James Gunn to oversee everything
>>722303951How? The superman movie was received well by everyone and made more profit than the Snyder one.
>>722303881
>>722303951He has absolutely nothing to do with their comics OR video games. Are you retarded?
>>722303881I'm rejecting your title, it's DC Rivals
>>722303334>she only dresses sexy but is pure!dude if you touch grass even just for a minute a day, you'll see how improbable that is.
Why cats, Miss Kyle?
>>722304475Bain?
>>722304886That isn't what you said. You claimed only hookers dress provocatively.
>>722305286>You claimed only hookers dress provocatively.Never did. It's your fault for misconstruing a simple analogy.
>>722303370https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0htCb9TBLvA
>>722302983what a whore
>>722303276In your retarded mind, all women who dress "modestly" must be pure virgins devoid of sexual desire?
>>722303830
>>722305985Nice strawman retard. See >>722305648.
>>722306062I know /co/ wpuld feoth at the mouth over this but the DCAU is just shitno, the movies being even worse doesn't make it suddenly a masterpiece
>>722306379>wpuld feoth*would froth
>>722306379wtf are your expectations?
>>722306310No one said "she looks sexy because she isn't a whore". He said, she wouldn't BE as sexy if she were. Which she isn't.
>>722306451a bit more than just "bruce timm's fetishes + batwank"
I only read GODvel.
money beats superpowers
>>722306457You actually believe that your hypothesis about how "she wouldn't be sexy if she were an actual whore" is true? Do I even need to explicitly point out the flaws in this claim?
>>722306832That is why BatJOB lost to Iron CHAD!!
>>722302176he is trying to become a better bat by accepting that Catwoman will fuck everything in a mile
>>722302959>Cattleman's thing is that she is a tease. Who NEVER puts out.No she just hated men, she only liked Batman because he never made a pass on her
>>722303617lmao
>>722298621What's wrong with his eyes?
>>722303617>>722306935He proves he is a better man by cleaning catwoman's pusi of other men's cum.
>>722304062kek good one
>>722306062>>722306451I'm very sad these are the only movies where WW looks this good.
>>722307260Watch the others, some of the movies were made by one team
>>722306925Iron Man jobs to liver disease. Next.
Here's the lineup I'd propose if I were making DC Rivals:Batman (Stealth + Acrobat playstyle with an emphasis on CQC, smoke bombs, and grapple hooks to maneuver around the map)Superman (Standard DPS/Tank hybrid that can fly, freeze enemies as CC, and shoot lazer beams out of his eyes for ranged damaged)Green Lantern Jessica Cruz (CC/Utility build built around flight, area denial CC, and stun attacks)Green Lantern Hal Jordan (DPS Build built around flying and switching between melee and ranged projections)Wonder Woman (Sword and Shield DPS build build with an emphasis on speed and parries; Lasso can be used for ranged attacks and stunning enemies)Deathstroke (DPS Katana + machine gun build with a slowed time / bullet time mode he can toggle on)Cassandra Cain (Female batman clone with less stealth and ranged skills in exchange for stronger melee skills)Raven (Utility / Ranged DPS build built around Crowd Control and summoning items and creatures to slow down and stun enemies)Starfire (Ranged DPS Build, built around flying and shooting energy projections)Hawkgirl (DPS build built around melee attacks with her mace and sonic attacks with her voice)Vixen (Melee DPS that can "stance" change Nioh style between combat styles, each based on a different animal)Cyborg (CC / Antiflanking build that can see enemies through walls, disable enemy abilities, and fly for short periods of time)Terra (CC / DPS Hybrid based around changing the environment with her geokinesis and shooting powerful, earth based attacks; can see enemies through walls via seismic sense)Wally West (Pure DPS with an i frame dodge, weak but extremely fast attacks, and a bullet time mode where bullets become slower and do less time)To compensate for so many flying characters, I would give all of the street level characters the ability to run over walls and climb over objects quickly.
>>722307549Oh and throw in Zatanna too. I'm not too familiar with her character, so I don't know what her play style would be. Maybe give her a play style similar to Scarlet Witch from Marvel Rivals?
what if they start adding dc characters to marvel rivals and rebrand as marvel vs dc rivals
>>722306379Those movies are tremendous. You're ridiculous.
Might not be the thread, never read comic books (only watched DC animated series and movies) before so i gave Absolute Batman a chance and it's really good.
>>722307798NoDC has to make everything lame and gayTheir game has to be done by canucks or commiefornians
>>722307843He's a big guy.
>>722307934>>722307934>>722307934>>722307934
>>722305792*crrrack**sssssssssssip*Yep, it's time to watch the Injustice cutscenes again
>>722302639
>>722307549you're a sick nigga for picking Cassandra, Hawkgirl, and Vixen over Supergirl. you also haven't included any villains, so i want Eobard Thawne to be the first speedster rep.
>>722308363>>722307549i see now that you did include Deathstroke who is a villain, but AWW, I DIDN'T SEE YOU ALSO SNUCK TWO GREEN LANTERNS IN! you're a mad man. lol
>>722303881Recency bias? and I might get shit from the og MM fans but I would love absolute Martian Manhunter, devs could get so creative with his animations and interactions.
>>722307832anon where are you from
>>722307352Why is Wonder Woman at the front?
>>722310125Mississippi
>>722301267I hate inkers so much it's unreal
>>722310706She is arguably the most popular and universally known super heroine in the world, you know.
>>722307843Absolute Batman, Wonder Woman, and Martian Manhunter have been incredibly coolSuperman and Flash have done nothing for me, GL I bounced off of for obvious reasons
>>722306379>but the DCAU is just shit...what? Mask of the Phantasm, Batman the Animated Series, Justice League, Justice League Unlimited, Static Shock, and Batman Beyond are legitimately some of the best animated shows of all time.
>>722302256>The mask is the real him.Nah. The real him is Baby Brucie, the big fat baby in an expensive onesie who sees all of Gotham as his personal playground.
>>722307352I don't understand it. I legit don't get it. How can DC's live action movies be so shitty, when their animated movies are so good. Compare Flashpoint for example to the live action Flash movie. In an hour and 21 minutes, Flashpoint tells a far more compelling story than the 2023 Flash movie can in 2 hours and 24 minutes. Same with Under the Red Hood. Unironically probably the best Batman movie after The Dark Night and Batman Begins. Or Batman/Superman: World's Finest which is a way better crossover than Snyder's Batman vs Superman.Or Emerald Knight which rapes the shit out of the shitty 2011 Green Lantern movieOr...ANY of the Justice League movies, which all run circles around Snyder's and Whedon's live action versions.
>>722310858It's just I've never heard anyone use tremendous in casual conversation, it was funny
>>722302256no it isn't
>>722310859you can say inkas
>>722298621His face looks like the Daisy Ridley meme.
>>722298621By making everyone ugly and unappealing. Warner brothers still infested with wokies.
>>722307843>Absolute Big Guy's MO is punching people with his truck-sized fists with surgical precision until they're physically disfigured at a cellular levelIt's so retarded that it's actually making me curious enough to be interested in reading it.
>>722298690Just Naargh things.
Marvel better. DCucks BTFO.
>>722307352All Star and Red SunAre these good? I highly doubt a 90 minute movie can do them justice.
Krypto needs to be in it
>>722312080Yes it is. He literally says so in another comic.
>>722312080Retcons and resets are so stupidbut here we areWhere a single manga outsells what should be monuments of franchises
Would Captain Marvel be in it or is he too much of a Superman clone to be included?
>>722298621They really should just hand all the rights over to the chinks or japs. It's actually an achievement to be this creatively bankrupt and draw like shit.
>>722313275His name is Shazam.
Which Lantern Hal,John,Alan,Kyle,or Jessica?>>722313398
Does /v/ prefer Marvel or DC?
>>722313559Hal or Jessica
>>722313275Damn. There isnt one modern day comic artist who can draw as well as Alex Ross and there will never be.
>>722313107No, he's Bruce first and foremost.
>>722313756uh bro your reading comprehension? This is the panel I was talking about and he's basically saying that batman is his true authentic self.
>>722313673at their peak i think they're equal and both contribute something equally meaningful to the art form, but in reality Warner Bros keeps hoeing DC so Marvel has been smoking them. if DC Rivals is a piece of shit you can bet your life fucking savings that the paper trail of responsibility will lead back to a Warner Bros executive.
>>722313673Marvel. Thor is just so KINO.
>>722313673Depends on the era. I do think DC has better oneshots.
>>722313673Hulk for the win.

>>722298621WB is at the helm so it would fail spectacularly
>>722316127marvel is literally kept alive by disney and the mcu. it was doing so badly in the 90s they sold spidey's full rights for just a few millionsdc is doing better comic book wise, it's not good, but it's miles better above anything marvel is publishing. marvel has unironically been in humiliation ritual longer than most posters of this board have been aliveas bad as dc got it never got to "spiderman makes a deal with the devil to save his elderly aunt at the cost of his marriage" levels
>>722316368>dc is doing better comic book wise, it's not good, but it's miles better above anything marvel is publishing.They effectively cannibalized the sales of their own mainline comics through the absolute series. Absolute series is going to end up killing them in the long term.
>>722316127Don't you know how comics started up? They're own by the long-nose clan.
>>722316127Superman shirts.
>>722316506What the fuck is Absolute?I dropped the big two around the time when they both had their big crossover event series that change everything forever with the Incursion and DC's moving offices event.
>it's bad to kill bad guys, better lock them up forever >it's ok for the people hurt, killed, or threatened by these bad guys to pay for their stay in prison>until they escape yet again and go on a killing spreeBatslop fucking sucks
>>722317245>wtf is absolute?Then look it up. Absolute batman is selling like hotcakes but it is killing the sales of every other batman comic.
If you banned cuck fetishists from accessing the internet I wonder if all capeshit threads and boards would just evaporate instantly
>>722316368Comic books are a completely irrelevant medium in this day and age. The audience is so miniscule and has been for so long, that it seems unlikely it will ever recover. Blame speculators, blame the 90s, blame the death of all the distributors, blame the fact comics aren't in the supermarket checkout aisle anymore, blame anything you want, the simple fact is that comics have no cultural relevance whatsoever except to act as fodder for films and useless trivia people can consume on wikis to seem knowledgeable about pop culture. I used to absolutely adore comics, but at a certain point you have to just let go of what is clearly a dead medium circling the drain.
>>722312080wrong, here is undeniable proof that him being batman is his truth
>>722317717In one comic from one writer. These characters are malleable. They can and have been everything under the sun. Fun loving Adam West Batman is just as valid a take on the character as stone faced, serious, borderline psychopathic Frank Miller Batman.
>>722317717how does the justice league let this schizophrenic in their ranks just because money?
>>722317838How many do you want? Everyone that is familiar with batman knows that bruce wayne is a fake persona for the batman's mission. This one is just a single example of it being explicitly spelled out but it's a universal truth
>>722316368Welp, that's depressing.Still, I have to admit that the great majority of American Comics, especially the ones in the last 20 years, are terrible. The last 5 years have been pure crap, also for many other publishers, like Dark Horse.At this point, I'm only reading European Comics (but only some, they also started to suck in the last 5-10 years). And manga, which I'm already starting to slowly get tired of...>>722316535>>722317187I believe both of you.That'll explains a lot.
>>722317856what do you mean let him? He founded the justice league

So are these the cheapest way to get comics?
>>722318296are these digital?
>>722318296Garage sales.
>>722316368>as bad as dc got it never got to "spiderman makes a deal with the devil to save his elderly aunt at the cost of his marriage" levelsYou left out the best part: he sold his marriage (which was stated to be one of the happiest in all of humanity) and his UNBORN CHILD to the devil. Why? So he could save his geriatric Aunt who got shot because Peter was stupid enough to reveal his secret identity to the world. The meta reason however? The absolutely shameless writers and editorial wanted Peter to be single again so that they could voraciously live and self insert through him as he dated other girls while living the bachelor life. Utterly pathetic.
Can we get a good dc fighting game already please>InjusticeI said a good one
>>722318619What would a good fighting game look like to you?
>>722317245DC's version of Marvel's Ultimate universe, sort of.
>>722318640Honestly some of NRS MK games end up ok after the dozen or so obligatory patches, I just dislike Injustice's heavy zoning emphasis
>heh you cant kill the le jonkler cause itll make you a tyrant or le crazy Holy fuck i hate batman and joker faggotry wank. Batman and his villains are such shitty characters it makes me want to puke
>>722316059it was meant to be a rock but everyone said that was retarded so they took the rock away so Dick just died because ???
>>722298621now THIS is peak bats
>>722318296The cheapest way to to go to /co/ every Wednesday and use the win-o threads. At least, that's what I did roughly a decade ago, I don't know if that's still a thing.
>>722318815rectangleman?
>>722318815he's a big guy
>>722313673DC has the better quality comics and its not even close, Marvel has a better pool of characters to play around with Both are rancid dogshit now thoughever
>>722318935for you
Best batman comic that could be written is basically have one random civillian just up and shoots joker in the head for revenge against his family or something and nothing bad happens and basically gotham is better for it, the dude goes on to be at peace and have closure while batfaggot endlessly seethes until he kills himself
>>722318710The Batwank is insane too. I remember one time, Superman went to Gotham and basically said to himself that he could never save it and that simply being here was soulcrushing, and Superman didn't know how Batman could stand it.Let that sink in. Superman. The man who is faster than light and can circle the globe 7 times in one second. The man with literal infinite strength. The man who can bench press a planet. The man who could read every medical book ever written with full comprehension in seconds. The man who regularly fights Cosmic Level Threats, Demons, Demigods, Gods, and Reality Warpers. Yes, THAT Superman, cannot handle one city the size of Chicago. Fucking lol. Shit like this is why people don't take comics seriously.
>>722313673I'd say it's about even with a slight bias towards DC. One World Under Doom was a fun read while you can never go wrong with the stupid shit that happens in World's Finest, and the New Ultimate/Absolute Universe stuff for both camps is top notch.Looking past the abominable things that happened in the 2010s, I'd say the thing that puts Marvel under DC for me is Spider-Man's editorial department and writers specifically. They have only recently stopped defecating on the character because of how good the reception was for New Ultimate Peter. Yes, I'm mad about Paul, but I'm also mad about their writers. I'm mad that the fat pig Dan Slott had such an easy slam-dunk of a premise with Superior Spider-Man and they managed to bungle it with terrible writing and brain ghosts. I'm mad that there were so many opportunities for writers to give Peter a break that their editors shot down because they don't understand the difference between a down-on-his-luck loser and a guy whose kneecaps they're actively seeking out with a baseball bat for no particular reason. The writing for that character's works are so offensively bad that it drags down the image of their company as a whole for me. Just write torture porn at that point.
>>722318996>A man with fantastic powers can't use his fantastic powers to punch away socioeconomic inequity and political corruptionWow...
>>722318996I mean, what can he even do? If he punches most of Batman's rogues, they'll just explode. Put them in the jail and they'll escape, or new ones will emerge. Corruption is overwhelming. It's just a shithole.
I still think it's retarded how the joker becomes a cosmic evil entity, he's just a normal/psychotic dude
>>722318815Org XIII ahh member concealing his Keyblades
>>722318996Its also funny how dc slowly moved away from superman having "super intelligence" cause intelligence is the one thing batman has to have to one up superman. I may not like the invincible guy having a hate boner for superman but it would be hilarious as fuck to have an omniman crossover where he cleans up Gotham in one single day to prove just how pathetic batman and his villians really are.
>>722319089No, my issue is>man who can move faster than the speed of light can't stop all the blue collar crime in comic book Chicago
>>722319128Yeah man, just have him zooming across the entire city with his non-Speedforce-augmented speed. That will surely end well, and not just destroy all of the run-down buildings in Gotham.Superman isn't The Flash. Flash could do it as long as the writers do not have an axe to grind.
>>722319052If Marvel were smart, they'd undo One More Day, bring Mayday back through some time fuckery, and then have Peter and Mayday fight crime side by side as a father daughter duo. Then Miles can take over as the single bachelor and teen hero, while Peter can actually move on and start acting like a man his fucking age, instead of being perpetually stuck as a man child.
>>722313673DC is superior to Marvel [imo] in every single way except live action movies/TV. Which is likely the most important current revenue stream at the moment. That being said I quite love the 90s-10s Spiderman as well as the whole of X-Men.
>>722318757>Dick just died because ???getting hit on the side of the head can be very dangerous
>>722319106you cant deny that its fucking cool
>>722319181>Yeah man, just have him zooming across the entire city with his non-Speedforce-augmented speed.Literally doesn't matter. What the fuck are you on about. Physics don't apply in comics. And I'm utterly baffled that you would pretend they do.
>>722318172kek
>>722319353These two pictures are Post Crisis Superman moving at Attosecond speeds, which is much faster than light. Yet there's not even a sonic boom. This isn't an outlier either, I can give you a dozen fucking pictures of Superman going at supersonic, hypersonic, and ftl speeds without physics fucking him over
>>722318940Did that recentish Hulk run that everyone fellated ever go anywhere?
>>722318996Gotham is cursed bro. Like in the literal sense, it's built on a hellpit. You can't laser those issues away.
>>722313673I love marvel but I'm sure that dc comics are better than marvel nowadays. Marvel is like studios under microsoft can do whatever shit they want with no repercussion cause their overlord is too big to fail
>>722319353>>722319437>Brad Meltzer's writingYeah you're right, physics don't matter in the issues that he writes because he writes fucking childrens' books.
>>722319659>You can't laser those issues away.You could 100% stop all physical crime though if you were Superman. You and the writers both seem incapable of fathoming just how strong Superman is. When you're faster than light and you can hear everyone in the city simultaneously and you can see through walls and you have what may as well be infinite strength along with the durability to casually shrug off nukes, then it becomes piss easy to solve any crime you can perceive. With Superman's skillset, I'm not exaggerating, when I say that Superman could solve thousands of crimes in Gotham in a fraction of a second.
>Superman can stop all physical crime!>He can stop all disasters!>
>>722319748It isn't just him, though. Here's another writer depicting Superman as a walking god who can read every single medical book ever written with full comprehension in seconds. Let that sink in. He traveled the entire world, he picked up every medical book ever written, he flipped through zillions of pages of material on medicine and surgery, he read it with full understanding, and then he ran back in seconds to help the doctors. Can you fathom how FAST that makes Superman. Hell, let's forget the speed itself. Can you fathom how Superman PERCIEVES the world when he's moving like that? He's moving so fast at this point that time may as well be stopped for him. Its a lot like that scene in Metroman except Superman is about a billion times faster:https://youtu.be/9e9bmbZsrbA?t=107
>>722319990>why isn't superman just blitzing the streets of gotham at light speeds? physics don't matter in this world, here's a few panels where him moving quickly caused a massive draft where physics are demonstratively in motion to prove it!)
>>722320050>massive draftlmfao
>>722320102>random debris shooting up in a sterilized operation room>sheets of paper literally getting ripped out of a man's hands due to his immense speed>he isn't even breaking the sound barrier while doing thisYeah man, I think that physics are a factor here.
>>722319824Sure, but then Gotham itself creates some new villains out of some random civvie which Supes punches the fuck out and then a new one pops up and so on and then Gotham is empty. You literally can't stop crime from happening there.>but that's fucking retarded, it shouldn't work like thatYes. However Gotham says fuck you and your logic.
>>722319598What run are you talking about?
>>722320050Wow, a draft. How profound. Superman is moving massively faster than light in the picture I showed you, and yet he's not destroying the Earth as he travels around it.Just admit it, anon. You lost. If you put Superman in Gotham, he could stop every crime in less than a minute. If Superman was bound by physics, then pic related would happen every time he moved faster than light https://what-if.xkcd.com/1/
>>722320217I think it was called Immortal and I remember most issues just ending with some Hulk gore and a cliffhanger. Not sure about the title though.
Marvel Tokon should just be X-Men only, the wider variety of powers better suit a fighting game, muties always fighting each other in general helps tooRest of Marvel can get a big action adventure game, apparently the GotG game was actually solid?
>muties
>>722320261>the wider variety of powers better suit a fighting game,we saw that it isn't the case with marvel vs capcom games. Even counting x-men shitmensions there is no spider-man iron man captain america, hell even hulk is different
>>722318815I'm fine with most of it except for the chest bat axe thing, like Batman already has 3 razor sharp claws on each of his arm bro why does he need a fucking battle axe
>>722320260Yeah, Immortal was KINO. Run after that was trash, but the current run by PKJ is pretty solid. First part is almost done and he has 2 more parts planned plus an event.
>>722303881you posted hercass is my wife
>>722320378Not that anon but I understand the sentiment only if a dev is willing to pick the weirder X-Men, who in general aren't as popular so that probably wouldn't happen
>>722320487All I remember from it was that his dad was in super Hulk hell or some shit.
>>722298690Batman is punching Alfred so hard he breaks his suit—which can withstand blows from meta-human beings with super-strength—on his face.
>>722320261X-Men should just be an RPG where (you) get a random power and do mutie shit.
>>722320410Killer Croc
>>722320562>Superman has countermeasures?!?!! Nonono... this cannot be....!!!!! He's supposed to be the perfect superhero that could prevent all crime in the world at all times!
The only good thing to come out of Injustice is NAARGH and the exploding shoe.
>>722302256No-one asked and no-one cares. This is a video game board
>>722320713His gamma radiation is actually some sort of hell energy, and the hulk is literally immortal because he can just respawn infinitely in hellI really like most of that run but the story got pretty messy by the end
>>722320848I didn't ask but I care immensely.
>>722320562not gonna get any more than this. And there is no said non x-men mvc characters, unless you consider toad a spider-man character, forge bishop = iron man, there is definitely no cap
>>722320920That's sad. Consider becoming an adult and not debating meaningless hypotheticals that can't be proven either way.
>>722320713His dad was possessed by the literal devil and it took the biblical God's intervention to defeat him, also the devil was God's dark side the whole time
>wha-wh-w-w-what is THIS?!?!! THEY DARED LAY A HAND ON MY HERO SUPERMAN?!?!! BUT HE'S FTL HE SHOULD'VE BEEN ABLE TO SENSE THE ATTACK AND TELEPORT OUT OF THE WAY!!!!!
>>722321000Wasnt the actual devil already a character in Marvel?
>>722302256Midwit take. Both Batman and playboy Bruce Wayne are masks for a terrified traumatized kid who never grew up.
Batwank is good because everyone likes the Batman.
>>722321050Not really, the one in Immortal Hulk is not Lucifer or Satan at least
>>722300065>>722298621I thought when batman says to train by smashing your knuckles against hard surfaces in tails gets tolled it was just more insanity from a crazy person, you're saying batman canonically breaks his hands over and over?
>>722321404mephisto?
>>722321458no he appeared for the first time in Immortal Hulk I think, as not an independent being but the literal dark side or alter ego of The One Above All
>>722320974This was the one where you could play as Prof X rightArcSys doesn't have the balls to do that in Tokon I bet
>>722305792This adaption sucked worse than the comics which were very low tier most of the time, the fucking movie killed the flash in the first 10 minutes and never mentioned it again because they didn't want to take the time to add his scenes
>>722322130in the previous entry. He's secret character along with spider-man
>>722318757>Dick Grayson dies to a stick and rockI'm guessing starfire doesn't take kindly to this?
>>722298621Fairly quickly and spectacularly considering it's WB. I can see it now.>Third of the roster will just be the Bat Family and the main rogues because obviously.>Instead of making characters like Barbara a skin for Bruce they will make her an entirely new character with her own kit.>Robin and Nightwing will be separate characters but functionally the same instead of a skin.>Suicide Squad will make up another third of the roster because everyone loves them so much.>Batkek is obviously playable.>Supes, Flash, WW, J'onn, Jason Mamoa, and Hal get added along with one of their villains, but they will randomly pick between throwaways and ones people want like Mxyzptlk.>Gotham City Impostors for some reason gets a representative.>Peacekeeper is there because he's John Cena and he's already locked in.>First three seasons will only add a mix of Batman characters and anything they're advertising for the DCU.>They will panic and then release some random deep cuts out of nowhere in the third season before slamming the emergency brakes and release Raven, Static, and Terry.>Characters like Constantine would be added just so they can make "Breathtaking" memes even though Matt Ryan is right there still loving the character.>First two seasons of battle passes cost $20, require you to play a minimum of five matches a day to advance, don't allow you to miss more than a week of gameplay, only give you five skins total, and are nearly all filler.>Battle passes also expire and are not permanent.>You get free event skins but they're only reskins of the default skin.>Actual skins start at $15, mandate you buy a bundle instead of just the skin, and nearly everything will be a legendary bundle for $30.>First three seasons are DCEU and DCU skins.
>>722301267>Inker fucked up the drawingA tale as old as comics.I honestly prefer black and white art like manga with proper shading. Coloring CAN look good, but most of the time they don't and the line art in comics almost always look way better than what they end up printing.
>>722322495She was too busy cucking him to care.
>>722320251It's no point arguing about comicbook logic. Even if OP shit like Superman and Flash wasn't around, even Batman by himself would be enough to clean up Gotham after a few years. All the actual dangerous freaks like the Joker would just get the death penalty, and executed after breaking out at least 3 times and killing more people on each occasion.The writers are also retarded and don't care about consistency and continuity. They often disregard what has been established, and as the industry gets worse and more incompetent buffoons get hired the more this happens.
>>722323908Better than marvel where 50 thousand heroes share Manhattan and there's still crime and they somehow don't all bump into each other responding to the same bank robbery.
>>722322495She was not in the comic yet. But he becomes Deadman later on so that's something at least.
>>722322584I completely forgot Keanu played Constantine.
>>722317632Why are comics dead but manga is thriving?
>>722324742Consumers are retarded slop-lovers.Not even trying to defend comics here, but people will genuinely buy actual garbage just because it's japanese(or in the case of Solo Leveling, mildly asian)
>>722324742Manga is easy to consume because most stories have a beginning, middle, and end with one authors vision rather than 90 years of comic continuity with retcons, different visions between writers, and endless ping pong character development.
>>722324742Manga is cheaper, also most popular manga are weekly, also I guess it's part of a bigger manga/anime culture in general there
>>722317632Ironically comics have the most potential.You can tell any story, there can be so many different art styles, you can go into autistic novel-level depths if you want, and it can go on forever.
>>722324742US downfall and China, Korea and Japan taking their place in pop culture
>>722324742>More appealing art>Better character designs>One story, no connectivity to different series>Chapters/volumes are easy to follow>Anime is excellent advertisement material>Wide range of genres, not just superhero crap>Cheaper>Chapters released weekly/bi-weekly/monthly
>>722303607>Free to play game for turd worlders has more players then a $70 premium game for premium gamersYeah no shit you retarded frog.
>>722318603the even worse part? aunt may LITERALLY tells him "hey peter i'm old as fuck anyway, we even have time for goodbyes, let me go". but no, his aunt is more important than his wife and unborn kid.also the fact no one in the marvel universe can cure a bullet wound that's clearly not mortal since she didn't die immediately
>>722319353>buys her an attosecond
>>722324742Also Diamond Publishing.
>>722326120>>722318603It gets even worse when you remember the Marvel Universe's actual Creator God went to Peter and told him "yo don't do this shit, May will be fine, you can be happy with your family" AND THE MOTHERFUCKER STILL SOLD HIS KID AND MARRIAGE TO MEPHISTO
Azreal is the best batman and they banished him to the shadow realm.
>>722303881Azrael I guess
>>722318603I mean, the in-universe reason for Peter to do it made perfect sense. Aunt May was his surrogate mother and she was at death's door. It makes sense that he'd do anything in his power to keep her alive, even if the price was his happiness. That's not to say that I agree with the One More Day shit, just that it would probably be seen in a very different light if things worked out in the end and if his writers didn't get off to writing torture porn.
I love Dick.
>>722328375At least it's not as dumb as Ultimate Peter dying because he jumped in front of a bullet aimed at Captain America's leg.
>>722323534The inker is not the colorist
>>722328997musta been a FAWDY-FAHV AYY CEE PEE
>>722328929We know, Bruce
>>722301267>his eyes were supposed to be closedThat explains a lot.
>>722298621>>722301267I didn't even realize his eyes were open in the first eye. Thought those were welled-up tears. They both look pussy either way
>>722330615*one
>>722303951That's the glowie one, right?
>>722303951Peacemaker is fun. Don't give a shit about Superman or whatever.
>>722298621>hmmm marvel just released a team shooter>should we rerelease gotham city imposters to test the waters?>nah fuck it lets fund a new one entirelyi understand why these companies go bankrupt
>>722300065Catwoman x Batman is so much better than talia al ghul.
>>722313673Depends on the day.
>>722330936This game was based
>>722321050Mephisto isn't the actual Devil, he's just a demon that acts like him, making deals for souls and the like.
>>722319102That was about the peak of Batwank I think.>If Batman went evil he would beome...the ultimate universal bad guy! Cos he's SMART and stuff
>>722331629Didn't he take dr. Manhattan's body and become an universal threat even though Manhattan's biggest power is omnipresence that he can't do shit with?
>>722331142Batman x Wonderwoman is objectively the best pairing.
>>722318378No
>>722332283>tfw I just realized Hawkeye and Green Arrow are two completely different characters from different universes
>>722303017You're confusing her with Black Cat, who actually lost her virginity to a "rape"
>>722304475Dr. Pavel?
>>722313673desu anything other than roster quality is irrelevant; they both don't have a good leash on their quality assurance when they hand out licenses or even just fucking have writers make comics using their characters. both sides have made good comics, games, movies and shows, but also produced plenty of garbage in each of those categories as well.for this reason i vote marvel is the generally better option. DC has better main characters (superman, batman), but marvel has a much better overall cast. for DC, everyone outside of the justice league and teen titans is pretty much who cares tier.
>>722313673DC has better landmark stories limited series and characters, as well as animated seriesI don't usually read long runs so I don't know how that holds up between the two of them since I've only read a few of each. Normies love Marvel because of the MCU and Spider-Man (which is probably the favourite superhero of 60% of living people)
>>722332053Yes. Then he was beaten by being thrown into the Sun by Wonder Woman.
>>722311187Man Absolute GL is so gay and lameDoesn't help that my brain is rotted by oneyplays so every time they talk about tomar i laugh out loud
>>722311187Obvious reasons?
>>722316127I've heard Batbrick sells well
>>722317245>What the fuck is AbsoluteOpposit world, but instead of Owlman shit where Batman is evil it's a world where Batman is poor, but still a good guy.
Don't know much about DC. Who do they have who can match the popularity of these two?
>>722320251There was some Superman story I read (no I don't remember which one it was) that implied his power is actually about subconsciously changing reality through willpower or some shit like that. So when he's flying some normal guy at light speed, his power also blocks the laws of physics from disintegrating that dude because that's not what he wants to happen.
>>722330936The trve tf2 killer
Is DC making a rivals copy or is it just shitposting?I would love that because DCs characters are SOOOOOOO much better than marvel
>>722332060that pairing is genuine ass outside of the dcau, and even there it only works because they didn't adapt Diana correctly
>>722335769Wonder Woman? She's already more popular than both of them lmao
>>722335769Harley and Poison
>DCucks are getting their own rivals clone>made in house by WBIt's DOA.
>>722335769Harley gets actual women dressing up as her for Halloween since mid 2010s
>>722336201No one knows yet, but it was reported around late July that they were hiring for a new live service DC game and everyone just assumed that they'd try to ride off of MR's popularity.
>>722335769
>>722313673DC heroes are so much cooler its not even close
>>722332606How can one autist be so based?
>>722300065oh i thought it was a headalso his punching form fucking sucksclearly drawn by someone who has never punched anything before.
>>722300065>let me put you back togetherInsane how you can just tell this was written by a woman. It's not even that he's breaking down. Pic related is one of, if not THE best, character moments for Bats and it's just him breaking down.
>>722337307Pretty sure it was written by Tom Taylor.
>>722335769Quite a few, if they're allowed to actually look sexy, feminine and alluring like Marvel Rivals girls are. Catwoman, Wonder Woman, Power Girl, Supergirl, Zatanna, Harley Quinn, off the top of my head.
>>722336454He means game popularity, not general.
>>722337409He's gonna troon out. I can feel it.
>>722337307And he's even helped by a woman in this scene. So it's not the subject, it's the telling.
>>722337436
>>722337436>DC Rivals is pay to play>Have to pay to unlock heroes too>And they look like thisI can sense it coming
>>722334692Absolute GL is a black woman.
>>722317838And that's the biggest reason why comics suck. You can't even have a conversation about these characters because nobody can agree on WHAT they are on the most basic level.
>>722317245Because their mainline sucks ass>OH MY 3 JOKERS>OH MY BATMAN WHO KEKS>OH MY GAY SUPER SONAbsolute is giving people what they wanted
>>722337769
>>722337769oh no
>>722337902Not that kind of black woman.
>>722337902she's not a particularly good looking black woman.
>>722337945?
>>722323534The inker in this situation screwed up the original intention and the colorist could only work from that.But if you have ever seen the original drawings from comic artists before all the inking and coloring it does often look way better than the finished product.Because an artist that draws better than their inker will only have his work diminished and a colorist can often make the work look gaudy.
>>722337598Exactly. Whoever wrote this has zero understanding of Batman as a character and thought they could just ape this scene that everyone loves and insert some generic "i can fix him" fantasy bullshit with Selena as their self-insert
>>722338034If you think that this is good looking, then you sir have a severe terminal case of jungle fever.
>>722337847It's also avoiding the pitfalls of the original Ultimate universe from Marvel, which was that it was too much "dark and edgy Marvel for the sake of being dark and edgy". Yes, Absolute is a darker universe, but its heroes are still heroic, they're just stripped of their usual support structures and have more of an uphill battle, but they're still trying to do good. The original Ultimate Marvel often made the heroes into assholes too, trying to be edgy and transgressive. "Oi wot if Captain America woz a jingoist, innit?", etc.
>>722335769Power Girl is DC's biggest blonde
>>722338202I'm just not homosexual
>>722301267I will never not laugh at fan edits adding face filters to their "fixes"
>>722338210>Absolute is a darker universe, but its heroes are still heroicThey went the other way and made the villains even worse. That issue of absolute evil where the "justice league" instantly murders green arrow was a pretty cool introduction to the villains.
>>722338245Alright pal. You can keep all the "ebony qweens" you want. Just keep this fetish to yourself ok.
>>722338482>Just keep this fetish to yourself ok.no :)
>>722317245It's a universe that was poisoned by Darkseid at its creation, so everything sucks, but there's still heroes. It's basically a version of the Ultimate universe from Marvel where they have some new takes on familiar heroes and villains, but have an actual reason why the world is so messed up. So here Superman didn't come to Earth as a baby, he was already fairly grown, so he doesn't have the support structure and familiarity, and Batman rather than being from a billionaire family, is a working class orphan starting from scraps, but still doing Batman's mission. All while bad guys already run the world.Absolute Batman in particular has caught on big time, it's one of the top selling comics consistently.
Why wasn't Wonder Woman's design changed when they added the Themyscira/Amazonian backstory?
>>722338879Linda Carter was just too iconic
>>722337847And they finally did some justice to Bane, who I'll always have a soft spot for and annoyed that so few adaptations did him right.Here he was gigantic and easily thrashed Batman, WITHOUT using any Venom.
>>722338879What? The Amazons/Themyscira have always been her backstory.
>>722313673marvel have been better than them at everything ever since the 60s, their characters always have been more compelling, anyone telling you how DC is so much better is either biased or lyingDC has good one off stories, Marvel has good +30 issues runs which is far more impressive but comes at the cost of not being adaptation friendly nor normie friendly.the only thing DC is better than marvel at is animation and thats because>DC one off stories lend for adaptations like that to be easily done>marvel doesn't outright adapt stuff, they at best loosely follow a similar set of events>marvel shills the mcuX-men 97 was one time they did try and was greatly recived, to this day even the merch like marvel legends are flying off the shelves.also DC tends to follow trends marvel create, the absolute universe is a response to nu ultimate, they even have a similar premise
>>722339004
>>722334929it's kino
>>722339024You're right. I was thinking of the added mythos with her being a demigoddes and all that. Correct me if I'm wrong BUT I think the WW2 stuff was retconned at some point.
>>722311252>legitimately some of the best animated shows of all time/co/mblr really believes this lmao
>>722302959>>722303098>>722303210Lmao. She literally fucks other guys even in New 52 (the one where she marries batman). Batman is the epitome of a better man.
>>722339373to add to this pretty much the only dud marvel has for the most part is spider-man who brings down the whole company reputation with normies since he is both the face of the brand and the most cared for character, so when normies heard about paul or manchild peter they think all of marvel is shit when thats far from the case>Cates Venom>Erwing Hulk>Erwing Thor>Zdarsky Daredevil>anything hickman does like Avengers, New Avengers, Secret Wars, F4, Ultimates, ultimate spider-man, the start fo Krakoa X-men>most of moon knight recent comics>x-men pre Gail Simone>F4 recent comicsmarvel really has had great runs in recent years.meanwhile DC at one point half of their books were batman related and a lot of them are getting cancelled out of lack of readership, they been on the verge of closing doors multiple times but keep getting saved because suits hope they could use modern comics as eventual movie pitches
>>722340225Stop trying to make this a meme, dude, it's tired already.
>>722337680https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U767rU8jCK8This will sell our DLC.
>>722340428i dont know about you but i absolutely despise what they did to venom, the king in black shit is horrendously forced
>>722317838>In one comic from one writer. These characters are malleable.NTA, but this is EXACTLY why I stopped reading comics, there is zero consistency in characterisation because every new writer that comes in has a different idea of what the character is and tries to make it theirs, then someone else come sin and retcons that, then someone else comes in and retcons the retcon for something else, etc etc etc until they just decide to reboot the entire fictional universe because it's such a FUCKING MESS now, then they do it all over again in the rebootHasn't DC had like 3 reboots over the last 20 years where some massive event restructures the entire fucking universe and resets everything and everyone?
>>722302431>implying Bruce MOTHERFUCKING Supermodel Dating Billionaire Wayne would ever be insecure about someone's body count.Get your fucking cuck fetish out of here
>>722340983hi Timm, stop jerking off to your self-insert
>>722341228No
>>722318710Joker unironically works best in limited runs (any media) where he either disappears or dies at some point in it. The way he escalates his atrocities can only end one way, and it's dumb how he's just a classless domestic terrorist now. It's like every Joker writer took the wrong lessons from TDK. Like the part at the end where the boats filled with people refuse to blow each other up, completely destroying his worldview and Batman rubbing it in so hard he goes completely berserk over it is one of the best parts, but he doesn't really lose like that anymore.
>>722318710Filtered retard.
>>722341565The Joker's worldview is still validated by the end of TDK, with Harvey Dent.
>>722341565>completely destroying his worldview and Batman rubbing it in so hard he goes completely berserk over it is one of the best partsAnd that he just tries to blow both up anyway because ultimately he's completely full of shit and another misanthrope psycho trying to fluff his ego by pretending he's some visionary. Even his claims to Harvey of being a "dog chasing a car" are bullshit because he's actually a meticulous planner, even when he's giving his speech to the two boats, he's reading from a prepared speech in a notebook, which is no doubt full of plans and details for his mayhem.
>>722339715Yeah, WW2 was only part of her origin because it was the current event at the time. Steve crashing on her island has been getting pushed along in the timeline ever since, in current canon I'm pretty sure she leaves Themyscira with Steve around the early 2010's.
>>722298621I thought that chafed fist was a close up of this backside.
I never understood the logic of batman having a secret identity>I must hide to protect those who I lovehe literally has nobody for 90% of his existence
>>722342019He runs a firm with a ton of employees. Imagine if every villain just started by nuking some Wayne Enterprises business.
>>722342019Nigga he's Batman and the richest guy in the city, if villains knew he was Bruce Wayne is business would be in huge trouble.
>>722342019Alfred, Gordon, Lucius Fox, Leslie Thompkins, and all their extended families. Not even counting Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, Barbara Gordon, etc.There's also all of those employed by Wayne Enterprises who might have their lives and livelihoods at risk, and all the good in the city his company does, also at risk.
>>722342019Also in many stories the police aren't really happy about a masketta man running around playing vigilante.
>>722342201>>722342249>>722342274almost all villains know he is bruce wayne and never did shit against the company, what kind of retarded reason is that

>>722338224>>722352562Popularity literally doesn't matter. Just take a likeable character from the comics and give them a 10/10 design and personality. For the blond girl niche they have Supergirl, Powergirl, Cassie Sandsmark, Black Canary, Stargirl, Harley Quinn etc.
>>722352562She WOULD be popular in a DC Rivals, if it was done similarly to Marvel Rivals. As he pointed out, Sue Storm and Emma Frost made a big impact with players, I wouldn't have said either were among the most popular Marvel females with general audiences, given the mediocre adaptations of Fantastic Four (which in particular had a poor adaptation of Sue), and the lack of spotlight Emma Frost has had in X-Men adaptations, with no real role in the animated shows or the movies. They both have lengthy tenures in the comics but the average person playing Rivals isn't a comic reader, they get their info from pop culture and adaptations like films, cartoons and indeed, video games.
>>722352850Cassie Sandsmark?
>>722301267TID
>>722332606DC honestly has the better live action suits even when the movies and shows are absolute slop, Marvel always goes with that same cross torso pattern and random segmented lines look for most of theirs
>>722353323Come on now, a lot of the Arrowverse suits started to look atrocious after a while, they kept doing the same goofy motorcycle jacket look.
DC Ricals needs manly looking males and cute/sexy looking females to thriveCanadian devs will NEVER deliver on thatThey physically cannotThey gotta make it lame and gayWith the males emmasculated because of "toxic masculinity", and the females uglyfied because of the "male gaze"Rememeber, WE MUST BE BETTER MEN
>>722351628How did Slade beat Plastic Man?
>>722353140Made for BWC
DC Comics peaked here
>>722310859Inking is pretty important. Can make or break a drawing.
DC is the Sonic of superhero comics.
>>722354370I always had a thing for Obsidian Age
>>722303881I know they will put in the dogshit modern redesign but I can dream
>>722351628see >>722354370Deathstroke going on a rampage was a great moment.
>>722354153you mean LONG wc
>>722354370pfffffffhahahaha
>>722354390Only a layperson but I like the first one the most. The top right looks totally off, way too much hair and his face is barely detailed. Bottom left is detailed but the face lacks the intensity of top left.Bottom right is good but makes him look a bit too evil rather than just angry.
>>722353548Not all the designs are good, they have some pretty shit ones but the ones that are. just are better than Marvel to me, I like that they gave Routh a proper Superman suit
>>722355573Looks way better than the Gunn suit.
>>722307843Haven't read it yet, but from what I've seen it seems like they turned Batman into a Shonen Manga. Catwoman's design is good tho
>>722355573MCU is a little bit underrated for costume design to me, people concentrate on some of the duds a lot or complaint endlessly about "lines", but they forget some of the great ones.
>>722311429I used to complain all the time that they literally just needed to adapt the scripts of the animated movies and the DC Live Action movies would've done gangbusters. Instead we got Green Lantern writers thinking the reason Iron Man did so well was cause of planes so we somehow ended up with a movie where Hal feels like an antagonist and Hector Hammond is the one you feel sympathy for.
>>722354370>Deathstroke going on a rampage was a great moment.It made no sense. Flash literally has the perception and reflexes to rebuild a building in seconds. Let that sink in. Forget how physically fast Flash is running. Think about how he's mentally processing every step as he puts together that building. Every nail, every screw, every hammer strike, every brick...he did every single part in less than a minute. And you seriously think Deathstroke could fucking stab him by pointing his sword behind him at the last second? Nigga please. Time would've been basically stopped for flash and he would've had literal years to react to the blade.
>>722353215>Cassie Sandsmark?Wonder Girl (Blond)
>>722355881And the villain is shit. Literally.
>>722356468Just typical "my favorite guy is SO COOL he can beat anyone cos he's too cool for school" wank
>>722354604>Obsidian AgeReminder that Ollie cucked Manitou Raven
>>722302176He punches metal walls, for fun
>>722303210>Go away, you retard. She wouldn't be so sexy if she was a whore. Her cemme fatale thing is because she ISN'T a whore. That's what sells her sexiness.this is my preferred version of catwoman but that's not how she actually is in mainline batman comics for decades at this point.if you want a loyal cocktease selina you need to read Absolute Batman where she's bruce's half-brazillian delicious brown childhood friend.mainline selina is rather whorish and is constantly being given random bad boy lovers who she's on again/off again with since editorial refuses to allow bruce wayne to be married
>99% of the rosterfagging is about some lame foidsCoomers are boring simpletons.
>>722357550Why do you think Rivals is so popular?
>>722353795Explosive
>>722357550Why do you think Marvel Rivals and Overwatch are popular?
>>722357667Because it's a F2P Overwatch clone based on a popular IP.
>>722312447the best line is when he tells batman he hasn't even used the venom yet, he's just naturally like fucking nine feet tall and the venom turns him into a goddamn kaiju
>>722357990Wrong its cause of the women. Try again.
>>722357990Guess why overwatch became popular.
>>722339604>WHOMP WHOMP WHOMPnew headcanon is that Ronnie is the way he is because he was visited by Absolute Bane. he used to be six feet tall with a V shape until he got beaten into a sphere
>>722357550They aren't lame
>>722352850Peeg is a feminist karen trying to be a tomboyish whore. She's far from likabke.
>>722359207They are. Hell you probably can't even name more than 3 Wonder Woman villains and she is the biggest female hero DC has.
>>722359505That applies to almost every superhero that isn't Spider-Man, Superman, or Batman.
>>722306062westoid hack choreographers really loves this stupid sideways spin
>>722355841Mysterio was goated.
>>722355841I liked his "real" costume too.
>>722359505>you probably can't even name more than 3 Wonder Woman villainsI never understood this argument when wonder woman villains are literally taught in public schools as mainstream history lessonsyou're really telling me you've never heard of Circe or Ares? then Cheetah is actually pretty popular too especially with shit like the DCAU making her another furry feline woman for batman to fuck
>>722306379Better than your favorite tranime.
>>722360761thats because you have autism. people know ares from greek mythology, not the DC ares.
>>722359505>Wonder Woman villainsCheetah (i know of her because I used to fap to cheetah x wonder woman porn)Circe (i know of her because of the Justice League cartoon and absolute wonder woman)Ares (i know of him because of the movie and the curse he put on her in the comics to be vunerable to weapons)
>>722361227but people know DC ares. this is like saying people don't know Loki or Odin in Marvel
>>722359681I know tons of X-men/Wolverine villains, Captain America villains, Flash villains, Fantastic Four villains, Thor villains and Green Lantern villains. Sure a hero doesn't need many recognizable villains to become popular but they at least need good stories then. Name once memorable Wonder Woman story.
I miss back when Hal was the green lantern.
>>722317245baki for niggers
It shouldn't be too hard to outdo rivals.>copy random hero shooter or two as base design>hire gacha artists and tard wrangle them a bit (to avoid anime aesthetics)>adjust meta per season or two by throwing random over the top buffs nerfs and even full blown redesigns>meanwhile sell swimsuit skins
>>722337847Batkek was never mainline and 3 Jokers is only semi-canon.
>>722312686Red sun is good, all star removes most of the shit people liked from the original and kept the action, in general the adaptations were bad except superman vs the elite
>>722298621It really depends. They need to make the females show more skin than Marvel Rivals without any hints of wokeness if they want to have ANY chance.
>>722362042>(to avoid anime aesthetics)already lost.
>>722361643>but they at least need good storiesThis. Daredevil is pretty popular despite only really having 4 villains (1 of which he has to share with Spider-Man, 1 is an organization and not a single villain and 1 is more of a Catwoman like antihero villain lover so he actually has only 1 real villain) because he has multiple great stories and runs.
>>722362509It's kryptonite to normalfags.
Fact: Wonder Woman being part of the supposed trinity is extremely forced. Wonder Woman was never the 3rd most popular DC character, at various points in time Captain Marvel, Robin, Teen Titans, Flash and Green Lantern were more popular and culturally relevant than here.
>>722361734He still is the Green Lantern?
>>722313673it's weird because dc both has better games, better comics and better animated series but overall dc is just shit at everything else
>>722362042Rivals at its core is good and fun and the devs engage with the fans a lot, the coomer shit is a really great plus you need to be both a good game and have appealing heroes/character designs to work as a hero shooter and thriveif your game like one or the other they either become a zombie game that is carried by porn or an obscure game that dies after a few yearsKnowing how DC and warner are they will likely fuck up bothalso the devs of rivals seems to actually like marvel when they aren't shilling chinese culture
>>722362042They should just ditch roles entirelythe Tank/DPS/Support just doesnt work without being a shitfest of the same problems like Overwatch
>>722356468You'd be right if it was Barry.But it was Wally. And Wally is retarded, this is canon.
>>722355841>>722360720The MCU arguably gave us the best design for the Vulture, like, in all of the media he's from.
>>722362787You can get manga at fucking wal-mart.
>>722363961You know, one of the biggest reasons I never liked comics and preferred manga is that Western artists can't convey movement and impact.Comic panels look like photos taken while manga panels look like the characters are actually in the middle of movement.
>>722365030true
>>722302176His parents are deeeeeeaaaaaad!
>>722361734he never stopped being the green lantern
>>722363912Doubt they would risk it. MMO trinity is here to stay.
>>722355739Kind of? I wouldn't really call it a bad thing in all honesty. Bruce starts from an average household and takes a more grassroots approach to uplifting Gotham, which is why he's a hulking hunk of a man that knows Gotham like the back of his hand (he does a lot of construction work in particular). It just so happens that his path in the story intersected with Darkseid's fucked up and evil influence on their universe as its God, and Arkham is a mad science lab that's turning people into monsters. I can see why someone would get shounen vibes from it.
>>722362381This but with the teen titans show blackfire
>>722356468You're comparing ~2004 Wally West to 2010 Barry Allen, anon. That's like comparing Superman Prime to TAS Superman.
>>722354370>Peaked>With a serial penned by Brad Meltzer
>>722365407too tacticool but I see the vision
For me, it's Batman Returns for the Sega Cdhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pRGNMSiQqc
>>722338059Do you have the finished version of that superman panel for reference?
>>722368282
>>722318603>because Peter was stupid enough to reveal his secret identity to the worldThis is the one thing I'll defend Peter on because it wasn't intentional, it was a product of being registered because of Civil War bullshit, which all ties back to that stupid nigger Speedball.
>>722368682I don't like the outfit very much. The little red belt is goofy. Either give him his red trunks or don't. Trying to have it both ways is stupid.
>>722298621>>722300065There are people who, not only slurp up capeshit media in 2025, but read comics?LolLmao
>>722368914That's PENANCE to you
>>722298621Should I buy this before it leaves?https://fortnite.gg/cosmetics?id=19902
Superheroes are embarrassing, but comics doubly so for trying to make me take seriously these characters despite boasting the single worst character design in entertainment media, there's not a single superhero who doesnt look like a complete clown, its like the hacks who designed them just went out of theie way to make their costumes as utterly retarded as possible.Captain America and Batman might be the worst examples.
>>722303881I want him to have his 9 lives gimmick too.
>>722369092>capeshitter unironically plays Fortnite and buys cosmeticsYou cant make this shit up.
>>722311429I feel like part of the problem is that too many superhero movies waste the viewers' times explaining who the heroes are and how they got to where they are. They'll feel the need to inject an entire origin story when people generally just don't give a shit about it. Most of the animated films have the benefit of working with the characters after they've been established as heroes and don't waste your time telling you that Batman's parents were shot and killed in front of him, or that Barry Allen was in a science accident that gave him powers, or that Superman was raised in Kansas after his planet blew up. They just get to the damn point of what people want to see.
>>722311429>animated shows are goodThey are stupid saturday morning cartoons for kids.Is there a single superhero fan who isnt a manchild?
>>722369162>its like the hacks who designed them just went out of theie way to make their costumes as utterly retarded as possible.You mean to tell me that people in the 1920s thru 1950s, who were designing costumed superheroes for comic books whose target demographic were children, made their costumes look silly and entertaining for the children that read them?Wow...
>>722306832LE EPIC REDDIT MEME XD
where the video games?
>>722358262This is the funniest panel I've seen in Western comics since Taskmaster learning Black Widow was trying to kill him.
>>722369484still king
>>722369346And superhero media mever moved on.One movie that was hilarious to me was Winter Soldier, because it was all serious and then suddenly Captain America would appear with his stupid fucking helmet and it was just impossible to take seriously.I guess its telling that the more comic accurate a superhero movie is, the stupider it gets and the more retarded the costumes get.That Superman movie that came out in Summer is maybe the most retarded, childish movie I've ever seen, and I dont think its a coincidence that everyone insisted it was comic accurate.
>>722324742quality aside, because of the internetworldwide niche rather than merely us niche, and all the amateur scanlations and subs are a massive resonance chamber that comics never had
>>722369534And it's actually supposed to be funny for once.
>>722368914>This is the one thing I'll defend Peter on because it wasn't intentional
>>722369803Oh the Taskmaster one was supposed to be funny too. Taskmaster's solo run was a (subpar) comedy.
>>722369987
Superhero movies suck because they've been trying to be toddler comedies first and action movies second.Like 100 superhero joints released over the past 15 years and The Dark Knight is still up top.
>>722366615Correct, it's the best story told in DC history
>>722370171>The Dark Knight is still up top.Wrong. Infinity Wars, Winter Soldier, Iron Man 1, No Way Home, and Black Panther, Doctor Strange 1 all mog it
>>722370321All those movies are full of millennial writing and terrible ironic humor.Its impossible to take them seriously when even the writers think they are stupid.
>>722369092probably not
>>722370267>>722354370>Comics peaked hereIts literally one of the worst...
>>722370451>All those movies are full of millennial writing and terrible ironic humor.you literally didn't watch Winter Soldier, Infinity Wars, or Iron Man I if you think this.
>>722370497According to who? It's got high levels of critical and fan acclaim.
>>722370591>critical doesn't matter>fan acclaim.now you're just baiting. it was universally panned by fans
>>722370650Yeah, the rape storyline triggered a bunch of bluehairs. Are you one of them?
>>722370725No, the character assassinations were worse. Identity Crisis and Avengers Disassembled are to the two worst stories in comics. Both ushered in an era of edgelord trash and character assassinations
>>722370796>No, the character assassinations were worseSuch as?
>>722370831All of the heroes involved in the mind wipe conspiracy?A light hearted villain being turned into an edgy rapist?
>>722370940>makes Dr. Light relevant for the first time in his career>makes Ralph and Sue relevant for the first time in 50 years>believable trolley problem/moral quandary If you think this kind of shit is bad, what would you consider peak?
>>722370591Had. On release, it got a lot of hype. Then the major flaws started to be noticed and that deflated over the years. In hindsight it's looked at as a dogshit book with a nonsensical plot and stupid character decisions whose saving grace is generally good artwork, and worse, it heralded a shitty era of overly edgy crossovers for DC.
>>722371128>>makes Dr. Light relevant for the first time in his careerBy forever tainting him as a rapist. >believable trolley problem/moral quandary Its shameful for the League to wipe Batman's memories. Shameful. Hilariously out of character, too. This was the author rewriting characters to make his edgy story work. >what would you consider peak?Superman Secret IdentityGreen Lantern (Rebirth, Sinestro Corps War, Brightest Day, Blackest Night)Infinite and Final Crisis
>>722371340Most of that is because of the stuff that came after, though. Classic revisionist history.I'll take initial reactions all day over revisionism because Nu 52 fucking sucked.>>722371367>tainting a villain by making him more villainous and less of a jokeOh no!>says Meltzer rewrote all the characters and it led to a bunch of bad shit>then calls Infinite Crisis and the Blackest Night shit peak which is a direct result of what happened in Identity CrisisAre you trolling me?
>>722302959> Cattleman's thing is that she is a teaseCattleman? Is this like a Rocky Horror crossdressing thing? Sign me up
>>722371513>Oh no!You have to be C O N S I S T E N T. You can't just rewrite a character for shock value. Shit like that is how characters get ruined. Scarlet Witch is a great example because she STILL hasn't recovered from the character assassination she suffered in Avengers Disassembled and House of M.>>says Meltzer rewrote all the characters and it led to a bunch of bad shitYes. >then calls Infinite Crisis and the Blackest Night shit peak which is a direct result of what happened in Identity CrisisNo? That all happened because Geoff Johnson is an insanely talented writer who ushered the Green Lantern Corps into a golden age of good writing and worldbuilding.
>>722371643>Geoff Johnson*Geoff Johns
>>722370591>>722371128It broke the biggest rule of detective stories; making the mystery impossible to solve by the reader. Most of the story is just red herrings, and the mystery is only resolved by new info revealed at the very end the reader was never privy to
>>722361734Too Bad, now he's the "Lime Fanous"
>>722371643Identity Crisis >>>>>> Blackest Night and anything Johns every wrote
>>722371513>>Most of that is because of the stuff that came afteruh no, it's Identity Crisis
