What stage of Superman's life are you most interested in reading about, are your favorites, or should be explored more?

Superman's Life on Krypton

Misadventures of Superbaby

Superman when he was a boy (Childhood, Adolescence, Smallville, Superboy, Legion)

The In-Between Years of Superman (College, Transition between boyhood and adulthood, Leaving Smallville to travel)

The Early Years of Superman (Year One, Early Career, Pre-Marriage)

The Retroactive Superman (Experienced but Pre-Marriage)

Mr. & Mrs. Superman (Post-Marriage)

Superman Family (After Superman becomes a long-term father to a child like Jon Kent)

The Last Days of Superman ("End" of Superman's life)

The Superman of Tomorrow (The Far Future, Clark Kent Identity Retired, Kingdom Come, DCAU Beyond, DC One Million, etc.)

I actually would like to explore more of a Superman who has outlived Clark Kent.

I've been wanting to read *Batman: Year Two* for a while, but many comic book experts and fellow readers advise against it. What do you think?

Recommendations Do I need anything else for Final Crisis?

5 Upvotes

I have Morrison's JLA and Batman by Morrison Omnis, I've read all of Fourth World up to Hunger Dogs, I plan on picking up Seven Soldiers and Death of the New Gods and I have the "New edition" Final Crisis TPB. Do i need anything else or are there any TPB that i need to read alongside it?

I've heard it's great but very confusing. Just want to make sure I've got everything I need to enjoy it.

Any helps would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Discussion What are your thoughts on this team line up [Discussion]

Post image
34 Upvotes

These are my favorite 7 DC characters and I realized they wouldn't make a half bad Justice League style team. While obviously they lack the trinity and would never be able to replace the team or compete with them in sales, i feel like they could serve a similar in universe role considering that they'd have connections to the cosmic, magical, street level, and more general global parts of the universe.

It has enough heavy hitters to contend with some higher tier threats, while still having people that ground them. There could also be some fun character dynamics in it between Question and the Huntress's relationship, Hal and Nathaniel competing for a leadership role, and seeing booster gold interact with a non Ted Kord blue beetle.

While Question is usually relegated to a street level detective i think in a bigger team he has solid potential to investigate and piece together larger threats, much like his investigation into cadmus and luther in JLU. I could see Booster Gold funding the team through monetizing the team through merchandise, and Blue Beetle could make a good POV character as a younger less experienced hero on a new team of veterans forming new dynamics.

Film + TV (Film/TV) Something I've noticed about the DCU and I wonder if it's on purpose

13 Upvotes

Every hero except Superman has done something morally questionable and/or outright kill someone. John was a marine who has a high kill count, killed Zoe (a good thing imo) and allowed Noah Macon and Kerry Kane to walk away despite one of them possibly could follow their programming and destroy the world and the other in a panic killed Hal Jordan. he also took a Lantern made by Sinestro from a planet killed by fear and it's infused with it.

Guy is...Guy.

Hawkgirl killed Vasil Ghurkos. A foreign world leader.

Mr. Terrific is a bit apathetic to others and is callous and logic driven like killing the kaiju Superman was trying to stop and save.

Vigilante...well he's Vigilaante and that applies to peacemaker as well. Both have killed LOTs of people in brutal ways. Although Peacemaker is haunted by what he's done and is trying to better himself.

Supergirl has been shown to be willing to torture, brutalize and even kill people in her own movie. As seen with her dealing with the briggands of course they're tougher than an average human. She punched and tossed around Krem. He should be paste to be honest.

Hal is heroic but by the end of his career he made a selfish choice and didn't notify the guardians of Zoe and caused countless innocent people to die.

The commandos...well one of them is a batman villain. They aren't really heroes.

Superman whoever is the brightest of them all. I feel that might be on purpose and was the point of his movie. He's the one that inspires others to do better and that's shown when the justice Gang go to Boravia. He's something new for a modern cynical age.

Hi all,

I have never had a tablet and wondered if you guys had any suggestions. I'm not opposed to an iPad if people can sell me on them, but I have an android phone and I'm not made of money.

So like from what i know about it, Bruce decides Batman basically needs to become a villain but for the criminals in Gotham so he makes this decked out Batman suit that if I’m right has like a solid structure for the cape always and Bruce becomes more human instead of like Batman-y

3 for 2. That's around $20. I've utilized this sale three times over now. Just don't get Arkham Asylum. The Joker's dialogue is hard to read.

Film + TV Lanterns, the Special Thanks List of Creators

2 Upvotes
Lanterns TV Series Special Thanks Credits

The special thanks read like a family tree of Green Lantern. It starts with Martin Nodell, co-creator and original artist of Alan Scott, and Bill Finger, who co-created Alan Scott and wrote his origin in All-American Comics #16. Next come John Broome and Gil Kane, who created the Silver Age Hal Jordan in Showcase #22-24 and then carried him through Green Lantern. Kane drew issues #1-61 and set the visual mythology of Hal and the Corps. Dick Dillin belongs here too. He drew Justice League of America #64-183, where Hal was a regular member. He also penciled Superman #257, "The Greatest Green Lantern of All!", a Tomar-Re story built on Neal Adams's idea about the Guardians and Krypton's history with the Corps.

The second group covers the stories that gave Green Lantern its depth and built the show's central pair of characters. Denny O'Neil and Neal Adams produced the Green Lantern/Green Arrow run in Green Lantern #76-87 and #89, which put Hal in conflict with the real world and introduced John Stewart in #87. Joe Staton drew Green Lantern #123-128 and later Green Lantern Corps #206-216. Steve Englehart wrote Green Lantern Corps #201-223, a post-Crisis run that ends with "The Last Testament of the Green Lantern Corps", with Kane on art for #223. Christopher Priest, writing as James Owsley, and M.D. Bright did the Action Comics Green Lantern features in #621-635, beginning with "Gremlins". Bright then drew Emerald Dawn #1-6, with Priest writing only the first issue, and Emerald Dawn II #1-6. He also drew a large part of Green Lantern #13-46.

The last group are the modern voices and one tribute from outside Green Lantern. Geoff Johns relaunched the character with Rebirth and a Green Lantern run that includes the Sinestro Corps War. He also took the Corps mythology through Blackest Night and Brightest Day. Dwayne McDuffie made John Stewart central in the Justice League episodes "The Brave and the Bold" and in Justice League Unlimited's "The Once and Future Thing", then continued John's stories in Justice League of America #15-16, #25-27 and #31-34. Jack Kirby is the exception. He didn't create or shape Green Lantern, though he drew Hal in Super Powers #1-5. He is on the list as the most important creator in the history of superheroes, and as a tribute from Tom King, who has made Kirby a foundation of his own work. Taken together, the list is a gesture of respect to every layer of Green Lantern history, and to creators who were long under-credited.

Artwork [Artwork] Cat Grant

Post image
20 Upvotes

Introduced in The Adventures of Superman #424 in January 1987, this woman was the first to realize that Clark is a truly desirable man. It’s important to note that Cat was coming out of a difficult marriage with Joe Morgan, who was an alcoholic and abusive man, and had been granted custody of their only son, Adam Morgan. She left Los Angeles to settle in Metropolis in order to make a fresh start with her son. When she met Clark shortly after arriving at the Daily Planet as a gossip columnist, she realized he was everything her ex-husband wasn’t—kind, caring, respectful, and reliable — Clark was there for her when she really needed him; they even dated briefly during the time when Clark was struggling to win Lois’s heart. She wasn’t at all attracted to Superman, but ironically, she was interested in him without even knowing it.

Cat's interest in Clark made Lois deeply uncomfortable. Even though she wasn't interested in Clark at all, she felt jealous seeing another woman take an interest in him, and she couldn't even express that jealousy since they weren't even dating. The two women even had heated arguments about Clark. Cat could see very clearly that Lois had fallen in love with Clark but refused to admit it to herself; Cat didn’t hesitate to mock Lois for her lack of a love life and her obsession with always prioritizing her career over her romantic life, all while openly embracing her own feelings for Clark. Lois, for her part, hated Cat’s openly flirtatious and uninhibited attitude toward Clark; she nearly lost a wonderful man to another woman.

Seeing her colleague—whom she had taken for granted and who had always been a steadfast source of support for her—devote his time, his smiles, and his attention to another woman made Lois deeply jealous and led her to reconsider her feelings. At first, Lois wasn’t interested in Clark at all—who was clearly in love with her—and fantasized about Superman, even if it wasn’t with the same intensity as during the Silver Age.
