>Former Justice League artist Ivan Reis has been named as the artist of the new Justice League of America title launching in February as part of DC's second wave of "Rebirth" titles. Reis will join the previously-named writer Steve Orlando on the book, which is planned to spin-out of the upcoming Justice League vs. Suicide Squad event title.
>Orlando/Reis Just when you thought DC Rebirth couldn't get any more based, they announce yet another top tier creative team on an a-list book. How can Marvel even compete?

The Ray first confirmed member of Orlando's JLA

Nolan Long
Please let Martian Manhunter &/or Mister Miracle & Barda be on the team! Like Benes & love cheesecake but Reis is better.
Connor Robinson
Reis is gonna do all the selling for this, baby.

The Justice League of America: The Ray one-shot, written by Orlando and art by Stephen Byrne, will be out on January 18, 2017.
Jackson Collins
there was an episode about that.
Landon Rodriguez
I Think i love this cover more than i should
Matthew Parker
Reis couldn't sell Cyborg
Adrian Campbell
> Orlando > Reis That's a damn nice team
> Ray and Vixen eh, not surprising. I guess they're fine
I really hope this isn't just the live action synergy team
James Russell
Is it weird that I want him to hook up with Obsidian?
Lincoln Rodriguez
Still a biweekly title, though.
So, there's definitely going to be another artist. Who would fit next to Reis?
Jason Fabok? Gary Frank?
Nathaniel Foster
>Orlando and art by Stephen Byrne Nice, I like Byrne's art
Xavier Garcia
> Shadow light and light guy hooking up
It practically writes itself
Ryan Anderson

Noah Nelson
You know, I kind of like that cat eyes idea for Vixen.
Jace Jackson
>Stephen Byrne
Damn, this nigga is getting his name out there, isn't he? An arc on Green Arrow, an upcoming fill in for GA #9, and now this.
Dunno if I always like his art, but he could easily get an ongoing.
Aaron Diaz
Prado
Kevin Powell
I think this will be different though because of Rebirth hype, having this book spin out of JL vs SS, and having the Justice League brand backing it up.
Brandon Sanders
Is DC going to announce all their NYCC news before the actual con
Jacob Gomez
Promo art or variant? The initial solicit does not mention that.
>an upcoming fill in for GA #9 Ferreyra has to do a backup story in Nailbiter.
Henry Harris
It also has a rising star writer instead of some literally who that jumped ship to Marvel
Adrian Ramirez
I like this outfit alot!
Andrew Martin
lets them beat the news cycle before NYCC starts with the typical Marvel dicksucking from the usual newsites.
Henry Bell
We're probably not gonna see Animal Man again in an ongoing for a very long time, are we?
Joshua Bell
I'm guessing that's a variant since it's not Reis art
Owen Garcia
The Atom (Ryan Choi) another member if JLA
Sebastian Robinson
Sweet, I like that the roster will be with more unknown characters. I was afraid this would be almost the same Hitch Justice League roster.
Ian Price
I'm liking this team
Cooper Nelson
OH BABY Manhunter is totally leading this team. >Vixen >Atom >The Ray >Martain Manhunter Definitely a CW synergy team but it could have an interesting dynamic

Foes of evil! Enemies of injustice! As it began in DC UNIVERSE: REBIRTH, for the mighty heroes of the Justice League of America, all wrongdoing is a menace to be stamped out! Whether it comes from outer space, from the watery depths of the seven seas, or springs from the minds of men, the JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA is back—just when we need it most!
In January 2017, kicking off JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA (hitting shelves twice monthly starting February 2017) are four DC Rebirth one-shots. They make four bold statements that form the foundation of a team that will bring justice to places that have given up on hope; places that thought heroism would never find them. The Justice League of America goes there! They explore the Microverse, the Hidden Cities, the worlds within worlds; they go to the other side of the map and explode forward with the new face of Heroism.
This is a Justice League that looks like America, that proves Heroism can look like ANYTHING and ANYONE.
From February 1960 to February 2017. The mission hasn't changed. It's just evolved.
Who’s on the roster? THE ATOM. Meet Ryan Choi, prodigious theoretical physics student, hyper-allergic, and crippling social anxiety sufferer. But little does young Ryan know, his first day at Ivy University will begin an epic journey that will take the all-new Atom into the very heart of the DC Universe.
JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA: THE ATOM #1

Nathaniel Bell
They're giving him the CW armor suit?
Hunter Gutierrez
Not really. Ryan was in Rebirth by Johns remember.
Wyatt Robinson

Justin Gonzalez
I think he's a bit too much of a panderer personally. It seems everything he does outside of comics is just catering to whatever is cool right now, seems a bit dishonest
Also his stuff is too cutesy and Dreamworks face at times but that's me being picky
Hudson Anderson
I'll admit this is a great and all but it's making me wish DC could have put better talent on the Big 7 Justice League book now.
Man is it gonna look embarrassing when this book is blowing the pants off Hitch's team when they're suppose to be the premiere team in the DCU.
Hitch needs to leave Justice League ASAP and bring in some actual talent to JL for once.
Luke James
PLEASE ADD MARTIAN MANHUNTER NOW!!!
Kayden Anderson
Im to excited to be triggered by the #lgbt hashtag.
Landon Walker
So all of this BTFO Cred Forums shit of Harley being on the team, right?
Thomas White
We're getting Martian Manhunter too, right?
>implying Orlando would pass on the chance to add his favorite comic book character to the team
Ryan Walker
This seems like a mistake. It's one thing to add a single D-lister to the team, but three? That's a sign of weak management.
Brayden Jones
Woo jla >which is planned to spin-out of the upcoming Justice League vs. Suicide Squad event title. So an event that already wont work now has to introduce a new team.
Daniel Scott
They're all D listers who are currently appearing in live action
Luke Russell
Haha obviously. Stupid delusional Harleyfags.
Asher Brown
shut the fuck up, no one wants A Listers on everything
Isaac Flores
Right? We definitely need more Batman and Harley in DC books.
Samuel Price
>Ryan Choi >The Ray Nope.
Liam Richardson
All we need now is the shazam book they have been teasing for years.
Jayden Peterson
When did he say that?
Andrew Mitchell
> four one-shots quick Cred Forums guess the fourth one before they announce it
Parker Campbell
Ryan isn't the Atom on the show
And I don't they've said anything about the Ray since they announced his cartoon
Henry Richardson
Sure twist my words around. That will win all the arguments ever.
Lincoln Young
>vixen >not b >atom >not high c
Alexander Parker
I want Zatanna i like her.
Evan Scott
The Ray is getting an animated thing like Vixen did so the odds are good he'll show up on the CW eventually
Granted live action Atom is Ray instead of Ryan but he's still the Atom
Cooper Price
>gay male >African-American Woman >Asian male
That leaves Hispanic. Vibe?
Jeremiah Gray
That MM is his favorite? Practically every time someone asks about his favorite character.
Landon Mitchell
Well, Vibe is overdue for something.
I think the poor guy is still lost among the multiverse.
Jonathan James
Zatana will be on the main league soon its inevitable.
Joshua Price
Fire?
Asher Walker
Oh cool, sweet.
Sebastian Johnson
Dr.Fate & Blue Beetle will probably be on the team.
Luis Torres
>thinking the armor is from CWshit
Try harder.
Pic related. Brightest Day happened years before Legends of Tomorrow and Arrow. There is also Nu52 Atom courtesy of Lemire that also had Armor.
Jayden Garcia
>Vixen >B-lister Since when?
Brody Mitchell
Fantastic news! Orlando in Justice League of America, is my most highly anticipated book this moment! Rebirth continues to kick ass!!!
Samuel Mitchell
She's Brazilian, not Hispanic.
Nolan Gutierrez
Between this and u.s avengers i dont think i have ever been this hype for the u.s of a
And at least this has little chance of being shit like u.s.avengers might turn out.
Asher Lewis
Good, they can announce things before hand and people can maybe have questions about things before hand and maybe ask them when they get there
Mason Morales
Arsenal/Roy Harper?
Fits the mold of being a CW character/legacy; also fits the mold of not being a main character in a CW show (anymore).
Don't forget Killer Frost is also really likely to be a member since she's the central character of JLvSS
Jordan Robinson
He's in Titans so I doubt he's gonna be in this.
Chase Adams
>The Atom >The Ray is getting an animated show like Vixen
Yep.
Nathaniel Flores
RHATO turned into Red Hood's Dark Trinity with Artemis and Bizarro
Arsenal is running with the Titans. Starfire is babysitting the Teen Titans
Dylan Hill
So if it is Team B/C list synergy Killer Frost and/or Vibe will possibly be on it.
Jordan Ross
Brazilians aren't Hispanic. I hope it's Vibe.
Blake Stewart
>Arsenal/Roy Harper? Fuck No! >Killer Frost Fuck Yes! Especially if sexualized.
Jayden Wood
You mean justice league of americas vibe
Jayden Anderson
Vibe and Frost being in would definitely appeal to fans of the Flash show.
Camden Thomas
Go watch porn user
Gavin Roberts
>The Ray is getting an animated show like Vixen
See >currently appearing in live action >currently
Carter Evans
>RHATO turned into Red Hood's Dark Trinity with Artemis and Bizarro >Arsenal is running with the Titans. >Starfire is babysitting the Teen Titans I see. Jason definitely has it better than these two.
Liam Carter
They're giving him the Pre-Rebirth Palmer suit. Makes sense.
I just really fucking hope they give Atom his own book, and that we won't have to settle for a team role.
Logan Martin
Go back to tumblr user
Joshua Gray
Frost has like a 90% chance of being on it.
She's a main character in the JLvSS mini out of nowhere, probably about to be in the next wave of Superhero Girls stuff, and Caitlyn is still a popular character on Flash.
And Vibe was on the last JLA before they fucked it up with Trinity War and Forever Evil.
Jeremiah Morgan
Vixen's grandma is part of the cast of Legends
I wonder if they'll have her already calling herself Vixen or if they'll tell her the name and she starts calling herself that being inspired by her descendant
Jayden Hernandez
HOLY FUCK I'M SO FUCKING EXCITED HOLY SHIT
DC IS SO BASED OMG
Eli Brooks
this book is gonna fucking rock
Nathaniel Perez
I think They are using Lincoln version.
Hunter Walker
Man, go read 80s JLI/JLE
Brody Cruz
better still be an Atoms book coming or I'm going to fight Geoff
Carson Rodriguez
Ex-marvel fag here, I dont know too much about the JLA besides this pic What is the basic idea and what make them different from the other justice league book that is going on ?
Hudson Hall
Is that the fucking CW suit? Fucking why?
Aiden Gray
It has nothing to do with fapping or what purpose pron serves, its just visually pleasing to look at.
Zachary White
Because JLI made those bunch of unknown characters that are actually interesting and fun
Christopher Gray
One is good.
No you sperg mongoloid.
Anthony Walker
Isn't Ryan a teenager?
Matthew Lee
Why do you guys like Atom so much? Genuinely curious because I don't know much about him.
Isaac Hernandez
You act like it wasn't huge gamble.
Colton Collins
come on normie at least read the thread
Luke Smith
well first of all it's a different roster all together
and the first new 52 JLA was something that Waller did to counteract the normal JL, so they may to something similar or change it slightly since it's spinning out of the JLvSS event
Carson Nguyen
His art fucking sucks.
David Brown
College student, more or less Ray's assistant.
Adrian Morales
Honestly I don't know a ton but they had a good tease for a plot in the Rebirth one-shot and I want followup on it
Angel Ward
Sometimes you have to take a gamble user. There are plenty of safe, guaranteed to sell books in Rebirth right now, what's wrong with one that gives the spotlight to more unknown characters?
Hudson Foster
>@thesteveorlando I'm literaly refreshing my feed right now to see Ivy announced!!! Every finger crossed!!!
Poison Ivy was a mistake
Samuel King
Looks more like CW than that though.
Joshua Myers
Can't wait for Poison Ivy League to get BTFO once again.
Levi Perry
Lets get Ivy in the team. #LeafPussy
Luis Brown
This. With sales this high they can afford to take a risk it does not matter if it fails miserably.
Oliver Flores
Is this the same guy who smap harleyxIvy pics ?
Benjamin Roberts
She was in JLU, it wasn't bad
Josiah Walker
Doesn't all the love go towards Ryan? Ray I guess because of Routh.
Ah so he'll be 18.
Bentley Ross
Hehe, I do remember hearing this was gonna lean more female heavy but I don't think Ivy's making it in. :^)
Logan Reyes
Wait why would ivy be on the justice league of america
Ethan Myers
i like it because she makes me feel better about my occasional Legion tweets that i worry are spammy
Cameron Perry
I dunno, but this is going to be Ray Terrill, although I think he's gay now (which will only honestly matter if there's character development based on it, but Orlando is the most likely to do something with that)
Cameron Roberts
>Ah so he'll be 18. ;-)
Andrew Ramirez
Too similar to Midnighter and apollo
Ian Morales
>doubting our based DC overlords
Eli Nelson
She's a hero numbnuts.
Juan Brown
Probably a little older than that, seemed like he was a TA.
Mason Nelson
Since when.
William Wright
MARTIAN FUCKING MANHUNTER!!!
Jason Lopez
Honestly I think Orlando picked him only because he's gay now.
Jaxon Thompson
>Manhunter >Vixen Kickass. Can't wait to see who's going to be the resident A-lister.
Owen Sullivan
He's more on the grad student side which means he's at least 22-23 or so, IIRC
Dominic Howard
He was pretty adorable in Rebirth to be fair.
The one shot says that it's his first day at university.
Zachary Thompson
A black women, a gay and an asian american, we just need MM who represent the reptilians in our society.
Michael Ward
Ewing spun Bendis's shit into gold for CWII. USAvengers is going to be great.
Angel Reyes
Haha tricked!!!!!
But no, really, that's what the autistic ivy leave person on twitter thinks.
Kayden Davis
I doubt that hurt, but Orlando's also someone who totally digs underused D-listers, especially one with a Priest-written solo in his background.
David Moore
But manhunter is an a lister isn't he.
Brayden Hughes
But we're dealing with one of the geniuses, so knock two or three years off for graduating early, I'd think.
Aaron White
He really doesn't
Zachary Hernandez
Where are you guys getting this from?
The solicit says that he's a first year student.
Carson Lewis
Calling it now, one member will be a Wildstorm character.
Ayden Turner
>yfw it's Harley
Owen Howard
Wait orlando is an ivyfag
Liam Mitchell
He's solid B, not like he ever got a movie or notable comic runs.
But he's the heart of the JL and he's prominent in a lot of shows so I dunno really.
Jaxon Hughes
>The one shot says that it's his first day at university.
It might be a flashback story. I'd wait until it gets confirmed because the only present day stuff we've seen with him had him older
the DCU Rebirth one-shot by Johns
Landon Watson
Isn't he more of a B-lister, though? I dunno.
Nicholas Bennett
>FEMALE VILLAIN JOINS THE JLA >It's Killer Frost
delicious trolling Ivyfags
Liam Barnes
?
That tweet was addressed to him, it's not from him.
Jayden Wright
Hmm, could have sworn that he was younger in that, perhaps it was the way he was drawn.
Ryan Clark
Fuck, I wish they would just reveal the whole line up already instead of just teasing us like this. The way is killing me.
Connor Edwards
I dunno dc has done a pretty good job of not puting harley where she does not belong despite her popurality.
Unlike batman who is in the justice league dark animated film.
Jonathan Reyes
>Another CW character So this is a synergy book just like Orlando's Supergirl
Bentley Hernandez
Killer Frost new member of JLA
IVYLEAGUE BTFO!!!
Joseph Adams
>Calling it now, one member will be a Wildstorm character. Please be a sexualized but overly muscular Fairchild!
Ayden Martinez
My money's on some kind of female Martian Manhunter.
Elijah Wilson
Ah i see thanks user
Justin Murphy
You mean Miss Martian?
Mason Howard
Renee Montoya PLEASE
Hunter Clark
Don't you know that Ivy is the BEST and GREATEST hero that writers for some reason keeps pushing as a villain?
They basically want her to be Swamp Thing but also an feminist mouthpiece
Jaxon Garcia
The next character will be one of these >Martian Manhunter >Vibe >Mister Terrific
Zachary Carter
>Jason is leading his own Trinity team >Roy in "Wally West and the others" book. >Kori in "Damian Wayne and the others" book Sure he doesn't.
Anthony Lee
The synergy in that books not that bad. That said im mostly talking out my arse i have barely watched the show.
Oliver Butler
They never explicitly state his age or experience but it did seem like he had been working with Ray for a while and for him to apparently be helping with the scheduling of classes and shit. Even if it's an early graduation thing and he IS meant to be like 18 it didn't seem like he had just gotten there.
I'll post the pages though and everyone can judge for themselves.
Wyatt Howard
Not surprised.
No interior artist is announced so far for her one-shot that will be out on January 25.
Hudson Stewart
Better than Captain Reddit.
Leo Ward
BASED AS FUCK A S E D
A S
F U C K
Jackson Richardson
Yes, they sure were better off being wasted as cocksleeves to Jason Todd as written by Scott Lobdell, alright.
Ryan Thomas
>Kori in "Damian Wayne and the others" book Looking at that first issue i think they have decided to turn damian into a villan for some reason.
Unless theres somehow a non evil reason to kidnap them all.
Angel Cook
>written by Lobdell >going to get to bang Donna and brought it up with his actual friends as opposed to being forced togethor with Jason >back to banging Dick and gets to mom it up
Christopher Cruz
...
Noah Russell
She needs something to wash away the stink of Lobdell.
Ayden Nelson
He wants their help to take down Ras.
Josiah Martin
Oh god damit will you cold haters stop fucking bitching.
Lincoln Robinson
...
Matthew Perez
How hard is Poison Ivy League crying right now?
Chase Walker
It's just one dude, just ignore him.
Joseph White
Are you idiot or something?
Read this >Jason definitely has it better than these two
Brandon Perez
Oh that poor autistic child always doing things the hard way.
Joshua Jenkins
When you return to Reddit, yes.
Nathaniel Harris
>Kori in "Damian Wayne kidnaps the DCU" book FTFY
Parker Perry
>January 18's Justice League of America: Killer Frost will be written by Orlando, along with Jody Houser; Mirka Andolfo will illustrate the one-shot, with Reis providing the main cover - as he will for all the one-shots.
Liam Bell
A 3rd/4th year student being groomed for grad school could help with things like that, but it's pretty much going to be a grad student who's working in Ray Palmer's lab, for this sort of shit
going to look right now--they're probably holding out hope that she'll be on there too or something
Connor Cooper
...
Grayson Watson
>Since when. Always normalfaggot. In their headcanons.
Lincoln Collins
>The Ray >Killer Frost >Atom/Ryan Choi >Vixen
So Martian Manhunter and Vibe are pretty much confirmed then?
Maybe a secret A lister like Flash to bring sales up? Maybe Green Arrow instead?
Angel Wood
Nope but here, you read this
Wyatt Sanchez
the end (of this scene)
Eli Walker
>Kori in "Damian Wayne kidnaps the DCU" book I would unironicly read this book. Especialy if it follows the same format of that first issue few pages of character introduction followed by a short kidnapping.
Eli Flores
>Vixen more well known than Atom
Are you retarded?
Brandon King
>this shit instead of Vibe Fuck you Orlandoooo!
Jordan Nguyen
The team is going to have more than 4 members user
Levi Wood
Vibe has a high chance of making it in considering this is Team CW and he was on the last JLA.
And Martian Manhunter.
Landon Morales
Sure but Orlando does love his obscure characters. >Sterling Silversmith >Lar-On >Subway Pirates
Landon Hall
>> Wearing a coat... >> Non sexual... Fuck Everything
Owen Nelson
That's why Ms. Marvel is delayed further and has a skip month this December.
Newsarama updated that article
Dominic Reyes
Obsidian had a boyfriend that he'd fought and struggled and bled to become stable and sane and self-accepting enough to have a healthy relationship with, before the nu52 retconned him.
Talk about Manhattan (editorial and shitty writers) destroying history and relationships and love? He's the perfect poster child for Rebirth. Hell, he might even get to have a sister again (hopefully free of the character assassination that comprises the whole of her character for a bunch of newer readers, Wanda 'NMM' style).
Fucking nu52 fucking with my Scott family.
Wyatt Jackson
>PoisonIvyLeague @ivygirl851 >@drinkpinkink it won't gonna happen for Ivy, right? Everyone can have a chance to be a hero except her...I'm devastated...
Jace Rodriguez
Ray's not that obscure.
Nicholas Perez
They could use Ice, a former member of JLI instead we get a villian
Aaron Collins
Damon Matthews actually showed up on Andreyko's Batwoman
Jack Thomas
Good, Ivy a shit
Jace Foster
But I'm assuming the other members are A listers like J'onn, Batman or you know who.
Jayden Anderson
kek
Juan Hughes
There are currently 2 elseworlds with harley as a hero.
What more could they fucking want.
John Flores
>IVYLEAGUE BTFO!!! How can DC be so based? BTFOing characterfags in such a fashion. Literally a fuck you. Ahahahahahahaha.
Gabriel Parker
*with ivy as a hero. Although harley is a hero in both
Evan Turner
Why does DC keep trying to make Killer Frost happen? And why are they trying to push a character named KILLER Frost as an anti-hero/hero?
Robert Garcia
>Donna >Dick Yup, Jason definitely has it better in every way.
Landon Cruz
>she was in JLU and just had a mini and is a main character in SHG but why does DC hate Ivy so much!!!
Alexander Lee
Wait they are announcing all the member today ?
Jacob Hill
>MMH >a lister
he can't even carry a book
Parker Adams
They actually don't seem to like Harley much because Ivy just becomes her sidekick.
Juan Butler
so who is going to round out this cast? Green Arrow? Flash? Could definitely use another SS member or two (Katana?)
Cameron Thomas
And people complain CBR timfags are bad
Brody Robinson
If they are going full-on CW, Flash is the obvious choice.
Benjamin Butler
Probably
Or they're waiting until NYCC for a full cover that shows the rest of them
Anyway Vibe and J'onn seem realllllly likely and if we're right then that leaves one or maybe two spots
Caleb Sanchez
>Vixen >budget Animal Man >Vixen joined the League in 1984 >Animal Man joined the League in 1989
Isaac Phillips
>people Literally just the Damianfag.
Eli Allen
Hoping for Dinah, she deserves a better team book than BoP.
Unless they're saving her for JSA connection stuff I guess.
Isaiah Edwards
Aquaman Jla detroit.
Leo Powell
Hahahahahaahhah
Jonathan Clark
And shes in every second issue of harleys book. Hell she has a whole fucking vacation arc coming up.
Justin Lee
This is why you shouldn't waifu supervillains.
Matthew Brooks
>Hoping for Dinah Seconded as long as Reis sexualizes her like she is in GA.
Nolan Moore
I am intrigued by your ideas and would like to subscribe to your newsletter
David Thompson
>I SHOULD'VE BEEN THE ONE TO FILL YOUR DARK SOUL WITH LIIIGHT
Xavier Gonzalez
>Ray's not that obscure.
Given that they tried replacing him in Nu52 and the fact that he had a brief 90s ongoing, Ray II pretty much is obscure and only something that 90s babbies like myself would care about.
Brayden Jackson
Its the single most interesting love triangle in all of cape.
Thomas Parker
>Vibe >Martian Manhunter >Flash >Green Arrow
If they're going full CW synergy.
desu I haven't watched any CW lately, but other than Supergirl, Canary, and Frost, are there any women that could show up on the team?
Cause 2/6 or 2/7 for women doesn't seem likely
Julian Harris
Talking about JLA, where's Catwoman nowadays?
Jason Bell
They'll put Batman or Harley on this. Wait for the announcement.
Hunter Perry
that new 52 mini wasn't bad tbqh
Ryan Carter
All Star Batman
Jordan Richardson
i really shouldn't enjoy the schadenfreude of Ivy League
Adam Thompson
>Anyone can have a chance to be a hero. Except for Poison Ivy. She's only allowed to be a villain or Harley's girlfriend...nothing more...
>I'm starting to think that DC people follow me and make fake promises just because they like to see me get depressed...
>Currently, not even a villain she's allowed to me. You-know-who is making sure all we have is The Girlfriend.
the last person is pretty right though but the ivyfag needs to be shot with the other characterfags
Camden Nguyen
It's more DC has tried push all the villains to be more heroic.
Luthor - Forever Evil, member of the Justice League
Ivy/Harley - nuff said
Clayface - now Batman ally
Killer Frost is just another example of this.
Camden Nelson
finally some glasses diversity
Brody Moore
user, all of Dc's well known female villains are connected to Batman.
Catwoman, Harley, Ivy, and Talia
Frost is the first they pushed that wasn't connected to Batman. >Injustice >Superhero Girls >Flash >Assault on Arkham
Gabriel Gutierrez
I can say with certainty that no one has actually promised her anything.
Blake Morgan
Other four characters could be Supergirl, Martian Manhunter, Green Arrow and Flash. It's technically CWverse synergy but I ain't complaining.
Jason Campbell
is vibe still stuck on another planet?
Nathaniel Brooks
He's appeared in lots of stuff though, from the numerous Freedom Fighters titles, to even appearing in stuff like Final Crisis. Vixen is literally who (cares) tier by comparison.
Adrian Morris
There is no good Killer Frost porn, asshole.
Asher Robinson
Why are Batadjacentfags so entitled? They think every fucking minor character they enjoy deserves an ongoing. Ivy literally just got a fucking mini, fuck off for 5 years and let characters who haven't gotten anything lately get some exposure.
Like Geo-Force.
Evan James
Why her?
Camden Johnson
Next Batman arc which starts with issue 9, she's in Batman's Suicide Squad.
Joshua Diaz
If she is in this book, she's about as likely to be sexualized as Killer Frost and Vixen have been.
Adrian Robinson
GA is the only one of those that doesn't seem likely Supergirl the most likely since they only have 2 women so far
Justin Robinson
So, if DC bring back the old JSA what are the chances of jay garrick or alan scott?
Ryder James
I think they just have a roulete wheel.
Joshua Williams
He was back on Earth at the end of his ongoing if that's what you mean. I didn't keep up with the other JLA if you mean something happened there though.
Ryan King
Those two are pretty much guaranteed, IMO.
The tricky question is what happens to the current E2 characters--before the last solicit I thought it would be "They're in limbo and some get shunted over to the reborn JSA", but now I have no idea.
Lincoln Hall
Why are you asking me when you should be asking Johns Killer Frost was strangely pushed around Forever Evil since she had a one shot and the FE mini
Female villains are underdeveloped in general so they could've picked anybody
Benjamin Moore
>You-know-who What does Dark Lord have to do with DC management?
Owen Barnes
Also, Khouri is the editor of the book.
Jayden Flores
Getting rid of the earth with tons of diverse heroes in favor of a bunch of old geezers probably wouldn't go over too well, even if those diverse heroes are now hidden behind bat characters and super characters.
I could see them just letting E2 go on and launching JSA separate from it.
Carter Thomas
>Why her?
Probably because she is an underdeveloped supervillain with a tragic backstory.
Samuel Johnson
Fuck you for putting Byrne on Ray, bitch face.
Noah Price
So it's confirmed to be okay at worst.
Nice.
I hope Orlando can go crazy and there aren't more than 7 people on the team.
Grayson Richardson
If they bring Vibe I hope they take Gypsy too
I'm still pretty sure they are going to fix up Earth-2 to make it decent enough for crossovers or whatever and the are just going to have separate versions on Earth-0 for the old JSA stuff. Nothing else makes sense and it would fit alongside other things they've done like the two Wallys. They know what people want and since you can bring that back without shitting on new stuff too there's no real reason to do anything else. But I guess we'll see.
Henry White
DCKOMICS does it again
William Wright
GA seems pretty likely to me. He's gotten a really good response in Rebirth, they might try to cash in on the hype train.
Asher Roberts
>Ray isn't obscure >but Vixen is
Vixen had a recurring role on a popular cartoon, had her own animated miniseries, and was on the last big pre-Flashpoint JLA relaunch.
Anthony Fisher
What's wrong with Byrne on Ray?
Brody Gray
Blessed Khouri, who can do no wrong peace be upon him.
That doesn't mean much if the E2 books continues to be under the control of idiots like Mike Cotton. Sure it had potential, but editorial just messed it up after Robinson left.
Austin Wilson
>Saving Rebirth, one DCKomics at a time.
Colton Allen
and was on Arrow and is joining Legends of Tomorrow
Gabriel Harris
I dont mind short hair, but I dont like the shaved side.
Carson Davis
So when's Ronnie joining? He hasn't been seen besides his Anthology since Forever Evil.
Ian Kelly
So all the anons that were speculating Middy and Apollo would be on this team were off. That pretty much means Authority with Orlando at the helm if Wildstorm Rebirth is still happening.
James Nguyen
You wot m8?
Adrian Johnson
>recurring She guess starred in maybe 3 episodes out of 70. >had her own animated miniseries Nobody cares about an animated series with 5 minute episodes >last big pre-Flashpoint JLA relaunch Nobody liked that shit Red Tornado was on the JLA on the Meltzer years and that run sold better and has more fans.
Ian Wilson
Byrne is shit.
Robert Flores
>a bunch of literally whos
Samuel Sullivan
Sweet mother of god I just hope Humphries doesn't write the JSA
I would like someone like Tomasi but I'd even settle for Ben Percy
Jose Cook
How about his brother Fred?
Owen James
>muh A-listers
Jayden Hernandez
I wonder if JLA will have a speedster and I wonder which if they picked one?
> inb4 jesse quick
Brandon Morales
Are his interiors bad or something? His non sequential art looks good
Joshua Fisher
I have felt like Abnett will get JSA ever since his Convergence mini and the fact that they're having him do the tying up on Earth-2. Similar to how Jurgens got Action.
Carter Bailey
The modern JSA doesn't have that much geezers anyway. 90% of the last team were legacy characters. I think only Jay, Alan and Carter were the originals (and you know the deal with Carter, he's young)
Christian Cooper
Too bad you can't enjoy your A listers currently user. Try again in a year. Do good deeds in the meanwhile for good karma.
Chase Butler
Maybe Seeley will get JSA since he's also exclusive and only doing Nightwing.
Xavier Stewart
>>recurring >She guess starred in maybe 3 episodes out of 70.
a running plotline in the second season was her existing.
Cameron Brown
He's dA tier.
Jace Lewis
Abnett would be cool but he would have to let go of Earth 2 first. He's already writing THREE titles.
Aaron Clark
Didio has been clandestinely messaging her with things like "Oh ivyfag... You're gonna want to keep an eye on the JLA announcements tomorrow... I PROMISE you're going to be very pleased ;)"
Lucas Gutierrez
Don't forget Wildcat
Kevin Thomas
And this is why a publisher biggest sin is acknowledge a characterfag
Jeremiah Rivera
> Will this book even be able to survive with these characters?
Nathaniel Cox
He's not amazing but I thought he's been fine on the GA fill-ins. I don't get that guy's hate.
Lucas Roberts
If Clay Mann wasn't on Trinity I'd definitely have loved to see him draw this book. Wonder who second and third artist are going to be. Reis isn't doing more than the opening arc.
Adam King
Is Steve Orlando a good writer? they should call just Justice League and not add the America because is offensive for minorities.
Luis Gray
wtf I love Didio now
Ian Bennett
...
David Evans
They wouldn't do that with the JSA book coming. Her and Hourman will be there for sure.
I don't think they'd put white Wally because it seems like they're trouble to avoid doubles between the main team and this one. Maybe Max Mercury since Williamson said he wanted to introduce him but couldn't fit it into the first Flash arc.
Nolan Long
Anyone remember the timing on this wrt the Ivy mini that was published?
Jaxon Gomez
I don't think they would give a whole new outfit from what she has in GA and it pretty much requires cleavage unless you make her flat chested. I do.
Hunter Collins
No way they don't put an A lister on the team. They're saving it for last. Wait for it.
Oliver Parker
That is way more than Ray Terril got.
Charles Nelson
Just stop posting about her here please.
Jace Williams
>Didio said she'll get a book >she literally got a book
>still bitch
Jaxson Powell
Yes, read Midnighter, Virgil and Supergirl Rebirth. He did a 4 page story in Gotham Academy Yearbook as well as Darkseid War: Shazam.
Jonathan Gomez
Not at all. Being background is not better than starring in titles.
Jason Richardson
>There is no good Killer Frost porn, asshole. >He doesn't know.
Gavin Ortiz
Remember those shitty rumors from a week ago?
>DC is announcing 5 new books and 2 new creative teams at NYCC. Aquaman will be bumped down to a monthly title as will Cyborg.
>New Teams: >Action Comics: Gail Simone and Patrick Zircher/Tyler Kirkham >Titans: Sterling Gates and Trevor McCarthy
>New Titles: >Harley Quinn & Poison Ivy: Amy Chu and Elsa Charretier >WildC.A.T.s: Steve Orlando and Jim Lee >Justice Society of America: Sam Humphries and Dale Eaglesham >Gen 13: Scott Lobdell and Ed Benes >Super Sons: Patrick Gleason and Jorge Jiminez
Thomas Johnson
What?
You think people know any female villains other than Catwoman, Harley, Poison Ivy, and Talia?
Even Marvel hasn't had many female villains in all the properties they've adapted.
James Wilson
>Didio literally gave Ivy a mini to appease a characterfag and keep Berganza.
Sebastian Powell
Vixen is more powerful than Buddy Baker, though. She needs her amulet to be able to control the Red properly, otherwise her powers would overwhelm her.
Carter Price
I'm wondering the same thing because the Batman crossover has been awful so far.
Landon Wilson
Elsa Charretier is doing Wasp. There's no way these rumours are true.

Zachary Taylor
Mystique. Livewire.
Jason Jenkins
You folks need to read Midnighter, that and Omega Men were the best DCYou ongoings.
Jaxon Fisher
So they will push Ray and ignore Firestorm?
Henry Diaz
Is Dan finally the man?
Matthew Ramirez
>Is Steve Orlando a good writer? He's mediocre to good
Midnighter and Virgil were good, Supergirl and the Batman crossover are mediocre
>they should call just Justice League and not add the America because is offensive for minorities. and fuck off or try harder
Dominic Turner
Sterling Gates and Johns are bros though. surprised hes not doing anything for DC atm
Camden Nelson
And the most important >Jim Lee on an ongoing
Levi Price
Thanks to the movies, people think Mystique basically a hero
And nobody cares about your waifu STAS was ages ago and people liked BTAS and JLU better
Nolan Sullivan
>Simone on a book about thunder and cats and character she's never written before
I think she said they'd be a redhead too unless that was a different project
Jacob Young
Isn't he doing Adventures of Supergirl or something like that?
Lucas Watson
Also, they haven't had one with ice powers yet.
Zachary Murphy
Maybe he'll get Shazam or something.
Juan Long
Well setting just became so depressing because of Tim's death but it's really fair to judge him by a book he has so little control over. Remember Robin War was fucking waste of time mediocrity as well and King was at the helm.
Brayden Russell
cmooooooooon cece
Jordan King
Better than cucks first arc senpai
Ian Wood
Yes these are very believable, sort of like those Rebirth rumors where some asswipe said DC was going to kill the Black Wally West and Stargirl.
Matthew Bailey
First season finish, in july.
Justin Thompson
If she did say that then she's JSA is pretty likely.
There's a redhead, Johnny Thunder (who was in the Rebirth book), Wildcat, she can create a new character if she wants, and she's never written JSA before.
Michael Morgan
GIVE US HAWKGIRL GOD DAMN IT!!!
Michael Diaz
Well, seems they still need a designated fighter so if this is something organized by the government like the original New 52 JLA, I could see Waller calling Midnighter. Ray being on the team would make the inclusion of Apollo a bit redundant however.
Lincoln Sanchez
She's in Earth 2 Soceity
Ayden Phillips
this lineup is shit This books only saving grace is Orlando Also hello DC Let's make the JLA the multicultural team didn't work before so it definitely won't work now
Easton Anderson
Nothing will happen with her until E2 gets settled
Kayden Wright
and it will be cancelled in 12 issues
Carter Foster
...
Nathaniel Barnes
For all we know Simone could be writing two books The Charretier bit is bullshit, yeah
Alexander Sullivan
>Orlando >saving grace
Midnighter is the only good thing he's written and even then the second arc was slightly worse compared to the first
Asher Howard
(You)
David Sullivan
Okay, I admit I'm impressed.
Brandon Perez
Middy will be in Authority Rebirth user. >muh A listers
Eli Morales
She said she has exactly 1 DC or Marvel book coming up, and that she had 3 different offers.
Brayden Morales
someone didn't read Undertow
Caleb Morris
Read Supergirl Rebirth fag >inb4 Teen shit
Parker Stewart
Shazam on JLA????
Grayson Fisher
>all the A-listerfags butthurt that one book will have slightly less known characters Jesus Christ, Rebirth is literally full of A-lister and B-lister books. Don't you fags have enough of that already?
Charles Martin
>Authority Rebirth Fuck that.
Nolan Miller
>Middy will be in Authority Rebirth user. That confirmed?
Daniel Gonzalez
Synergy shit, just like this book
THe only good thing about this book is Killer Frost will probably end up looking like her CW or Superhero Girls version
Bentley Smith
>that she had 3 different offers. Fucking why? She's past her prime.
Carson Reyes
Makes me wish he got Aquaman desu.
Josiah Jones
I like Orlando but Supergirl really wasn't good. Something with the structure didn't do much for me. I think the scenes kind of didn't flow well. I'm still giving it a chance though in case it was just because he had to dump in the status quo explanation stuff first.
Aiden Rivera
It's confirmed that there will be a Wildstorm announcement at NYCC.
Anthony Flores
That shit sucked man, and I like Orlando.
Connor Cox
Nah, he's written by Lobdell.
Michael Nelson
She's still well liked and gets stuff done on time.
Benjamin Cook
Kys waifufag
Julian Campbell
ok it'll be bad
Thomas Long
She's better than Williamson.
Nicholas Brown
this is how you do diversity the right way, take note marvel
Jose Morales
Ah, well that's interesting. Announcing a book hardly seems like something momentous enough to be described as "a Wildstorm announcement" however.
Nolan Peterson
Thundercats confirmed
Jace Kelly
He's a race swap of a white character, the exact same shit Marvel does.
Parker Ward
> Ivan fucking Reis... > Not a saving grace???
Aiden Gomez
Ice isn't American.
Nolan Fisher
How is this any different from what Marvel does?
Daniel Martinez
they didn't announce a book, but at SDCC a fan asked if they had any wildstorm plans, and lee said to look out for NCC
Julian Kelly
Her Vertigo book is good.
Hunter Cruz
But where is Ray Palmer? Also making Ryan a shut-in NEET is a bad move
Christopher Walker
I'm not the guy you replied to, but what Marvel does is ignore their existing legacies to make new ones for headlines. DC is using the diverse characters they already have. (Also legacies are not race swaps)
William Adams
>Authority in the main DCU
This shit couldn't possibly work unless they're a cover group like the Suicide Squad or something. Their methods are so extreme that if they are in the main DCU they'll end up as villains of the Justice League.
Jayden Rivera
There's only been one issue though.
Cameron Davis
I've said it before in other threads but I'm assuming they'll have 4 books because it seems like a line announcement comparable to HB and YA and those both have 4
see
Xavier Clark
DC did most of their diverse legacies years ago so for most of Cred Forums that's all they know or haven't seen much of the character before DC replaced them.
Cred Forums would have HATED Jaime, Batwoman, Jason Firestorm, etc had they read shit back then. Jaime especially got a lot of hate back then cause they killed Ted.
Kevin Foster
That's why I'm not dropping the book yet. I'm just saying I wouldn't use it as an example of him writing well because I didn't think it was good.
Evan Gray
Neither is Ryan but he's on this team
Wyatt Baker
I understand that. All I'm saying is that IMO announcing Authority Rebirth (which was what was suggested as the book Midnighter would be in instead of JLA) seems like something too small for a Wildstorm Announcement. >I've said it before in other threads but I'm assuming they'll have 4 books because it seems like a line announcement comparable to HB and YA and those both have 4 This on the other hand seems more appropriate.
Colton Taylor
those direct to video movies are literally "batman:the universe" because only casuals who get tricked into buying them for batman and people on Cred Forums who put them online for the rest of us to watch buy them
Jacob Miller
They have 4 books already announced >JSA >Atom >Shazam >LOSH in addition to Supersons and JLA delays
But they said there's more surprises, so we might get 2-3 new books
Blake Miller
Why Batwoman?
Christian Perry
>mfw i though we were talking about the JSA
Isn't the JLA the one with superman, batman and the others?. Or Justice league ≠ Justice lague of america?
Brandon Carter
Issue 1 was good. It showed different cultures and Supergirl's state of mind without 2000 words monologuing. It's the best Supergirl has been since new 52 mate, sorry you didn't like it. I personally thought it was extremely intelligent storytelling.
Jackson Reyes
In 52, Batwoman's thing was she was gay.
That was it. They clearly shoved her in there before she was ready and well thought out, and apparently that's what they did. She was gonna have a solo but kicked the writer off and dropped the book.
Nathaniel Diaz
>Justice league ≠ Justice lague of america
Robert Garcia
>4 books for a niche line that can't sell for shit >appropriate
Jayden Johnson
>It's Williamson Shitposting-kun strikes again unnecessarily episode
Kevin Hughes
I mean 4 specifically for Wildstorm like giving it a sort of mini line
Matthew Campbell
Also she existed for like 3 years before getting any attention/development specifically for her to in the form of Elegy, the rest of the 'Tec run with her, and her solo.
Andrew Ward
You say it like launching 4 books for a niche line that can't sell isn't what DC is doing these days >Hanna Barbera >Young Animal
Carter Rodriguez
>implying Simone isn't better Top laff
Luke Ramirez
MY MAN! I agree with you, fellow Geo-Bro. Geo-Force is one of the best DC's character. He needs to come back in full geo-foce.
Dylan Lee
Not the same user but yeah, neither Williamsons are impressing so far.
Chase Murphy
Doom Patrol alone can sell in one month more than 4 WS titles combined can.
Dylan Hughes
Ray was literally background tier since Infinite Crisis.
The only significant appearance he had was ironically the Blackest Night Jonah Hex story written by Didio of all people.
In the two Freedom Fighter minis by Palmiotti/Gray he got upstaged by two other Rays including his dad and Stan Silver. And Final Crisis, fucking Human Flame got more panels than he did. I don't know how anyone can believe he hasn't been treated as a background d-lister compared to say Vixen.
Michael Hughes
yeah and they should chill because half of each other those will sell like garbage in addition to vertigo in general that's like 10 books selling below 15k
we'll probably just get Authority and Wildcats or some shit
Robert Cook
I wish the whole Wildstorm line to be forgotten forever, it's just edgy shit.
Christopher Ortiz
Context is a helluva a thing, user. In this particular case, I meant that announcing one book that features Wildstorm characters doesn't seem like "A Wildstorm announcement." Announcing 4 books that do however, does.
Bentley Taylor
This. Marlel/Bendis literally ignored War Machine's niece and created Riri for no fucking reason other than stroking their giant egos. They don't just ignore pre established white characters, but minority as well.
Jose Robinson
Maybe with the Judas Contract rehash we'll get some clarity (like if he exists).
Cooper Cox
What the hell are you talking about? First thing he does when showing up in that Freedom Fighters mini is rekt Stan.
Daniel Walker
IDK, make them a global team and have them work through EU. Or just ignore DCU as a whole. I don't care, I just want to see those characters done well again.
Connor White
>liking Geo Force
shit, where's that pic of that geo force thread. Was that guy you?
Nathan Ortiz
Also because the first ongoing by Devin Grayson got canned by presumably Tomasi and he put Rucka and Williams on the job.
And it took a lot of time for JH Williams to draw just those issues. If you look at the schedule. He went straight from Club of Heroes to Batwoman.
Ryan Bell
It's only edgy in the sense that it lacks idealism in a broader sense. That doesn't make it's characters or the stories they are featured within uncompelling.
Anthony Wilson
Me too.
Chase Walker
>non-evil reason fun shenanigans
Eli Walker
Vixen is a nothing character though.
Christian Lewis
Stan is portrayed as the actual Ray for most of Freedom Fighters and actually does more including killing the Invisible Hood and revealed being one of Father Time's men.
Joshua Diaz
>an editor dumping her without telling her in favor of a slow team
The timing seems about right.
Austin Gray
this is a great cover
Blake Ross
And the only thing Vixen has had was an okay mini and being somewhat prominent in JLA for a couple years
And don't get me started on Killer Frost
And both are STILL nothing characters
Parker Collins
He exists. No idea was Terra mentioned.
Hudson Robinson
But he still gets rekt by Ray.
Liam Scott
Vixen has more appearances in mainstream media such as JLU and CW shorts not to mention being a member of the Meltzer Justice League.
Josiah Robinson
Fuck you.
Nolan Myers
>pure, bound husbando
Nice.
Priest specifically mentioned Terra so she'll probably exist. There was a new 52 Terra but I think DC is ignoring/retconning whatever that shit was
Lucas Moore
There is plenty of porn in tumblr
Jayden Gonzalez
Why should they chill? They're selling very well, they can afford a few low selling titles. Not saying they should give that line another shit though, Wildstorm had it's chance.
Lucas Foster
>hating on based Lobdell What's wrong with you, user?
Nolan Harris
So?
Even Uncle Sam gets rekt there and he is suppose to be the most powerful character. Power levels or consistency doesn't mean much in a Palmiotti/Gray comic.
Benjamin Lopez
Just because he bullied SJWs on twitter doesn't make him a good writer user. You have to separate talent from the person.
Cameron Cox
You said he gets upstaged by Stan but when he first shows up he's referred to as the REAL Ray and then kicks Stan's ass.
Brayden King
Suicide Squad.
Gabriel Robinson
His rebirth series is good though.
Cooper Clark
wacky raceland and flintstones aren't selling well, the upcoming dick dastardly book won't sell well, and mother panic and cave carson probably will not sell well
Levi Murphy
this, or mera for newage JLAD
Angel Garcia
Terra exist, yes. Ravagers. But I don't know are they related in current year and continuity.
Ryder Jackson
He's a terrible writer who doesn't know even the basics of writing. I'm actually baffled about how that man can have such a steady work for decades now.
If it was just bad writing, as well, but the man have terrible ideas. He's actually poison for established characters. Look at what he did to the Young Justice characters or even Red Hood.
Jose Sanders
It's enjoyable but I don't know if I'd call it good. Similar to GLs for me.
Lucas Murphy
It's just alright. Above mediocre, below good.
Kevin Adams
I'm talking about Rebirth, that's their line of safe sellers and the other three are for more experimental stuff that will sell lower.
Jace Jones
No, it isn't. It's mediocre and he has his work cut out for him because Geoff Johns helped him set up the status quo. He's also robbing from past stories.
Let the man produce a few more issues. I'm sure he'll do tons of stupid shit that will damage Red Hood, Bizarro and, specially, Artemis, for further use.
At least with Bizarro you can just ignore his version.
Evan Miller
Vixen is probably the biggest black female character in the DC universe, like Storm is for Marlel.
Sebastian Price
Nothing based about Lobdell, Jasonfag.
Landon Thomas
FUCK RAVAGERS AND ANYTHING TO DO WITH LOBDELL'S TEEN TITANS RUN.
Hoping for Priest to hard reboot her character.
Caleb Adams
That just tells you how big of a fuck DC gives about muh empowered strong women of color.
Nathan Fisher
You can basically ignore his stuff on every character tbqh (see: Starfire, Roy, hell even Superman)
Christian Nelson
And Vixen is such a nobody lol
At least the one mini she got was pretty good
Ryan Scott
That's the general rule, if Lobdell wrote it, shit's not canon.
Connor Jenkins
I'm pointing out to you that is meaningless since characters getting wrecked happens with such frequency in Freedom Fighters. Meanwhile Stan Silver is shown as the Ray for nearly half the half series and then afterwards as a traitor leading Father Time's meta thugs.
Oliver Williams
>asian americans arent american fuck off
Isaiah Diaz
He's literally born and raised in China. It's the same situation they'd have with Ice.
Hunter Johnson
u right
Logan Myers
I remember Lobdell from the 90s X-Men, he was a extremely mediocre writer, how he ended on DC?
Brody Cruz
Bob Harras and Jim Lee.
Nathaniel James
He is like the Reed Richards of the JL, personality & character
Benjamin Morgan
Yeah, DC doesn't have many Black characters, I there is more Asian characters at DC.
Noah Flores
and most of them are ninjas or are very smart
Lincoln Anderson
GLs is definitely mediocre (still really enjoyable tho), but Red Hood is legit good book.
I actually like how he is taking his time in establishing the team instead of rushing it and he manged to balance Jason's Post-Crisis and N52 characterization. I'm also interested in what his plans with Artemis (her introduction was really) and Bizarro.
Brody James
>no gleason/tomasi campy JSA series
We are truly living in one of the worse timelines.
Juan Adams
We got a Asian Batgirl before any black character in the Batfamily.
Adrian Bennett
And her power was being the best fighter, even above her asian mother, who the previous best fighter
William Wilson
To be fair that's also most DC characters. Difficult to avoid in superhero fiction.
Irey and Jai West (rip in peace) and Traci 13 are ones that come to mind who avoid it though.
Kayden Campbell
Maybe Johns wrote a good treatment for his book, he definitely did it for some books. Also book is under a more competent editorial of Alex Antone.
Brayden Walker
DC is the land of stereotypes.
Jack Lopez
>but Red Hood is legit good book.
It really isn't. It still full of quirky and terrible narration and he'll eventually do something dumb that will ruin the characters. Not to mention that Bizarro and Artemis will end up being nothing but props for Red Hood, sicne Lobdell cannot not fanwank Red Hood.
Nathaniel Mitchell
New Super-Man could possibly create a whole line of new Asian DC characters. I really expect him to see Kenan in a team book if the book continues to be a success.
Camden Collins

It's hard to not get upset when a terrible writer is writing a character you used to like and the writer's stupid fans eat it up no matter the quality.
Scott Lobdell is DC's Bendis, but with less writing skills.
Ryan Myers
I don't know if anyone here is reading Hitch JL to confirm either way
Hudson Powell
:(
Lucas Moore
Well, Berganza was the editor of N52 TT too. So I think it's fair to put the blame on him instead of Lobdell because he himself (Lobdell) said that they changed things in that book behind his back.
William Butler
...
Charles Morgan
kek no. It's weird mix of elemental forces and Mass Effect. I think. Shit's blurry in my head. I know, senpai. Seeing Outsiders name used in Green Arrow for some weird team of people who wield weapons and later Katana being shipped to Skwad because muh synergy... fuck everything.
Nathan Nguyen
I distinctly remember ivy got a book.
It was not even a bad book so she has nothing to complain about.
Samuel Baker
Are they from Earth Me?
Nathan Flores
>Berganza was the editor of N52 TT too. So I think it's fair to put the blame on him instead of Lobdell because he himself (Lobdell) said that they changed things in that book behind his back.
Funny how everything bad Lobdell produces end up being blamed on the editors and not Lobdell himself.
The Teen Titans book before the reboot was actually enjoyable under JT. Krull's writing. JT. Krull, of all people. That was edited by Berganza as well.
And even if the editors changed shit behind Lobdell's back, that doesn't excuse the fact that all of his NU52 books sucks. It's not the direction of
Bentley Edwards
Obviously we need to buy that Outsiders reprint coming to get more of them
No, main universe

It in fact looks like the justice league of america will be spending more time away from america then the main justice league.
Its gonna be like champions but not shit.
Carter Evans
Shit, my post got cut off.
Either way, the problem with his books aren't merely their creative direction, but also things like characterization, plot beats, pace and so on.
Julian Gray
Get over yourself then. I like some characters who are being written by writers that I don't like, but I'm not obsessed with them or the fans who enjoy their works because everyone has the right to like whatever they want.
Just because someone like something you don't, doesn't mean that you have a better taste than them.
Aiden Walker
Yeah let's blame Berganza for Johns' bad run, but not for Lobdell's bad run just because you hate him.
Totally fair.
Caleb Jackson
Scott Lobdell is a fucking amateur, though, and he actually fuck up characters. Look at the Young Justice characters. They had to be benched because no one knows how to resolve the mess Lobdell created.
It isn't just about a character being written by a writer you might not like, but a case of a character you like running the risk of being completely ruined by a hack.
The same people bitch about what Bendis did to the Avengers or X-Men,. you've to deal with people bitching about Lobdell ruining DC's characters.
Tyler Watson
Everybody blames Geoff Johns for his Teen Titans, specially his dumb as fuck Superboy's retcons. Are you crazy?
Johns take all the blunt of the complaints.
Angel James
Well they are aparently willing to have open conflict with the suicide squad so who knows.
They will probabbly shunt them onto another earth though yeah.

user, I'm not gonna bother discussing anything farther with you because your hatred is definitely blinding you and I feel like I am talking to a wall.
So, let's agree to disagree.
Xavier Morgan
The main league has not been called the justice league of america for years.
Ryan Morales
>In 52, Batwoman's thing was she was gay Did you even read the book. Im not going to pretend it was a good book but this is blatently false.
Tyler Gonzalez
>See here Sure everyone does.
Zachary Thompson
Is this your first time looking at a DC comic?
Joshua White
Yeah, it's better to agree to disagree. I can't understand why anyone would like Scott Lobdell as a writer, since i find the guy a complete hack. He doesn't know the fucking basics of writing. I really can't think of how that man has any fan.
Yeah, that guy's crazy. The Superboy mess was entirely Geoff Johns' fault. His Teen Titans run screams Johns shit.
It's like the people who defend his Nu52 JL by placing all the blame on Jim Lee, as if Lee had ghost-writing JL, when it's obvious that the book was entirely Johns fault.
Nathan Walker
I'm not but Mark Waid himself confirmed that Johns had editorial edicts to follow on that run that fucked up some characters. Ultimately Johns does get the bulk of the blame despite this though.
Until someone confirms the same with Lobdell we can't really know for sure which continuity stuff is his fault. A lot of his bad stuff is just because he is bad though (like the redundant monologues).
Ayden Anderson
Did you miss her prominent role in brave and the bold
John Wright
>Mark Waid himself confirmed that Johns had editorial edicts to follow on that run that fucked up some characters.
Geoff Johns should shoulder the entire blame for what he did to Superboy, because that little retcon of his was something he had been wanting to do since he was a mere reader during the early 90's.
Easton Torres
>Geoff writes in to the letter pages thinking Superboy is part Lex Luthor >Writer tells him he is wrong >10 years later he writes it anyway
The madman!
Brody Brooks
Was any of that added in the comics though because I'm talking about her being nothing in the comics
Leo Mitchell
Content is not execution. Johns had the idea but maybe it would have played out differently under different editorial. Tone was apparently a big part of things that Berganza wanted to control.
Landon Lewis
>At least with Bizarro you can just ignore his version. I have noticed that they are letting everybody just make up there own source of bizaros. Which is for the best because it means no one writers speech paterns are nesecarily the correct ones otherwise your just going to get writers fucking it up all the time.
Andrew Davis
This story will never not make me laugh The greatest instance of letting the inmate run the asylum
Jeremiah Hall
Bizarro is basically DC's Deadpool, a character that can get away with any origin story
Jacob Jenkins
Dude, even if an editor is telling you to do certain things this way or that way, you, as a writer, can still write a good story, despite the dumb changes that is being pushed unto you.
I see a trend with Geoff Johns' fans the same as with Scott Lobdell's fans, where people come up with any kind of excuse to alleviate the writer of the blame.
Johns have a tendency to be hit or miss.
Evan Diaz
>Super Young Team Vs Justice League of China
That could be a cool idea and a great story, but DC probably will end in big shit if they let it happen.
Caleb Scott
They already refused to change suicide squad to sell it in china.

You can still try, but that doesn't mean it will turn out well. And it's not like this is not just speculation. We have an industry source (not unbiased of course, but worth taking into account) saying that not everything was the writer's choice. It doesn't make sense to claim that he should be to blame for everything that went wrong or every decision when we know that at least part of it was not him. And acknowledging this uncertainty of specific blame doesn't remove him from the result outside of hyperbolic shitposts. Ultimately the run is what it is and Johns doesn't attempt to disown it (at least not directly, he did obviously attempt to apologize for it with his Adventure run).
>I see a trend with Geoff Johns' fans the same as with Scott Lobdell's fans, where people come up with any kind of excuse to alleviate the writer of the blame.
>Johns have a tendency to be hit or miss.
I think you're just trying to meme now because I don't know why you'd say this. I've never seen anyone deny that Johns' main weaker works (pretty much only JL, TT, and Brightest Day) aren't up there and discussing the circumstances surrounding these things is not trying to alleviate him of blame. It is just attempting to figure out what went wrong because people care more than just saying they were shit and moving on like stuff by other creators.
Carter Howard
>even if an editor is telling you to do certain things this way or that way, you, as a writer, can still write a good story,
That is rare. If anything a lot of the lackluster output from DC in the 00s pre-Nu52 and post-Nu52 era shows that is impossible.
>where people come up with any kind of excuse to alleviate the writer of the blame.
The difference is people will try and understand for their favorites. No one is going to explain away Will Pfeifer or Jodi Pocault on Amazons Attack or Wonder Woman or the various writers for Countdown but the same thing happened.
Or all the terrible crap from the beginning of Nu52.
Wyatt James
>generation of racial hatred
Most of the current troubles is because of the geopolitical tension between China and Japan. If you rewind the clock back to the 90s it was less of an issue because Chinese still needed Japanese investment. I would daresay the actual hatred presently is far less if not stoked by the media since the generation effected by the war is dead or dying.

Batman does not sit.
Chase Martin
>i also dont really like lobdell >red hood and the outlaws has been pretty dang good so far cautiously optimistic
Asher King
i still wanna know which editor that was
Ayden Anderson
I wanna know who told gaiman characters in the dc universe dont masturbate (although aparently nobody told the hellblazer writers)
Nathan Wilson
Please give me this!
Power Girl instead of Fairchild is cool as long as she has the window. Shazam instead of Fate is cool. Miracle & Barda instead of Fairchild or Fate would be fucking great.
Kevin Diaz
China has it in for Japan since the Boxers
James Taylor
>Hotheaded
He should get out of here
Goddamn I miss the invincible, antiheroic, character driven Black Adam from Pre-flashpoint.
Lincoln Wright
>livewire not a literally who
Cameron Peterson
not nu52 buddy very early in his comic, or in JLU either i believe it goes him > theoretical beastboy if he wasnt retarded > vixen >>>beastboy
Camden Clark
I dont get the hate for amazons attack it had its flaws but overall it was a fun little elseworlds.
Cameron Johnson
Plus the psychos in Japan who deny the rape of Nanking, think enslaving China was justified & want to return to being ruled by a Emperor are gaining alot of power. nationalreview.com/article/437950/japans-new-fascism
Luis Long
he always was
Juan Thomas
Stargirl and Fate will be saved for JSA, you have to think ahead here senpai
Julian Perez
Karen Berger
Gabriel Turner
Grant Morrison > Jeff Lemire shit.
Vixen also didn't appeared in Animal Man and even the comic stated that Animal Man was weak and that his daughter was the real shit.
Cooper Lopez
>China has it in for Japan since the Boxers
Not really. Prior to its attack on China's sovereignty Japan was seen by China,as a nation worthy of imitation in modernizing. The founders of modern China who overthrew the Qing Dynasty received support from Japan and many of the prominent leaders/intellectuals of the republican era went to Japan as students.
Gabriel Kelly
In that case. Mera & Miracle & Barda inplace of Fairchild.
Luis Sanchez
yeah, he was weak in it, but got powered up two separate times, both permanent for the run in his first fight though, it was at least somewhat clear though that while he would be on par, or slightly weaker than vixen since he (at that point) showed literally no outward change of his powers
Luis Nguyen
They have always had power. Just remember Abe's grandfather was an accused war criminal who was set free and helped found the modern day LDP. Likewise they and their opposite number: the pacifists were born from the start after the American written constitution was implemented.
Grayson Torres
Dr Fate is going to be in Blue Beetle
Grayson Morales
Oh jeez right from the top. Which makes it even stranger it apparently did not apply to hellblazer.
Aaron Gutierrez
>from outer space Supergirl? >the watery depths of the seven seas Mera? >spring from the minds of men Martian Manhunter? >They explore the Microverse Atom >the Hidden Cities ??? Vixen? >the worlds within worlds ???
I'd fucking kill if Mera were on an actual team and did stuff outside of Aquaman It's been like 6 years since her push in Blackest Night and new 52, she deserves it
Brandon Barnes
>People already complaining about members being not A-Listers >The Ray ISN'T GAY >MUH WHY DOES THIS BOOK GET AN ACTUAL WRITER AND JL DOESN'T? >fucking Ivan Reis again? DC's pushing that still pushing that shit house style?
I'm surprised that outside of Cred Forums, not a lot of people are psyched
Jacob Wilson
I think that anecdote was probably just a joke about a specific instance that they didn't want to publish rather than a true rule.
Whenever Cred Forums likes something the rest of the internet hates it. New Super-Man is probably the biggest difference I've seen between here and normie comic fan places like CBR.
James Thomas
Wait are you complaining about those things or are you complaining about people complaining about those things?
Oliver Reed
Did they just my the ray gay since nobody cares about him or was he back when he was created?
Nicholas Hill
the latter. I'm fucking hyped for Ryan Choi. All New Atom was my shit
Morrison said he was
Gabriel Carter
Morrison made a multiversal version of him gay and it's transferring to Earth-0 too
Cooper Scott
in a twist, cbr seems to like it
Jaxson Allen
Wait, is Mastermen Ray moving to main Earth? That kinda sucks.
