Questions about DC's relaunch

[Diabolical]

Don't forget the "real Lobo."

[anarky]

Jesus fucking Christ.

Just....

Jesus motherfucking Christ.

How the fuck do you miss the point of a great character so completely, and be so oblivious to that fact?

I also have to wonder if Keith Giffen will still be a DC whore after this hits. If so, the man has no fucking integrity left.

Seriously, goddammit, Jesus fucking Christ.

[Tom Foolery]

Oh lord, I totally missed that earlier.

That's gawd awful.

Who the fuck is their target audience? Certainly not older fans of the REAL Lobo.

[Diabolical]

1993?

[anarky]

Maybe girls in 1993.

Two problems (aside from the obvious WHAT THE MOTHERFUCKING HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, DC?

Lobo is the last Czarnian unless they dropped that. Rill Lobo (sorry, can't say "real") appears to be as well. This would mean two. Are they both claiming to be, or just one? Either way, it don't work.

Second, a very similar situation as the basis of Lobo's Back, where Loo stole Lobo's "Main Man" title and bloody hilarity ensued. (No, really. It was both bloody and hilarious.) No points for guessing which story will be better.

Next up: Ambush Bug is now a fashion designer who brought back the argyle sock, and is also a serial killer of superheroes. No humor. Doesn't even wear a costume anymore.

On the plus side, how often does Frank Castle ever acknowledge he was once an avenging angel, a black man, or even a Frankenstein monster?

You a-hole! You know the Big 2 troll here for ideas!! Now that will become a truthy!!

Trick question. Those never happened. (In my mind)

Oh, that happened. Just not to Frank Castle. It happened to "Frank Castle," currently seen in Thunderbolts.

I can live with the entire black man thing, but only because the story that led into it started out good, and that particular story reintroduced Luke Cage. Other than that, sheer and stupid garbage.

Anyway, point being that in ten years no one will remember effeminate Lobo.

[Tom Foolery]

Ahhh. I find that acceptable.

Are you sure? You still remember the Angel Punisher.

[Tom Foolery]

The silver lining in all this is that maybe the "real" Superman, Batman, Flash, Green Lantern etc etc etc ad infinitum haven't been introduced yet either.

Only in a mocking "remember when they were fucktarded enough to think this was a good idea?" way.

In light of the recent departure of JH Williams III and Haden Blackman from Batwoman due to 11th hour editorial buggery, this guy put together a timeline of DC's post New52 douchery.

[anarky]

So, the bad guys unmasked Nightwing?

How fucking stupid do the writers think the entire fucking world is? It would take a toddler about five minutes to trace his history and figure out Bruce Wayne is Batman.

Who knows if Batman Inc and his revelation that he "funds" Batman is still canon in the DCnU. If it is, hey, big fucking deal. Either way, Dick was a kid in Gotham at the same time there was a Robin, and he was the ward of Bruce Wayne. Bruce Wayne always tends to have a ward that corresponds to any given Robin.

This goes way the fuck beyond Spider-Man unveiling himself. Spidey had his wife and aunt to worry about. Dick, the whole fucking Bat-family.

Hmm, a poorly thought out event (meaning the incident, not the miniseries) that is done entirely for shock value, without any thought given to the repercussions? From DC? You're shitting me.
