[QUOTE=Joazzz;25678199]A flying shapeshifter with 120cm long claws... Damn, wouldn't that be just awesome?[/QUOTE] martian manhunter? minus the claws
I saw this back on Yahoo's front page last night. Wanted to punch a fucker.
[QUOTE=Fetret;25679585]I thought Superman was supposed to be Superman you know Man of Steel and so on. I am all for character development etc... but isn't this a bit much? For example Frank Miller's "Goddamned" Batman worked (well sort of) because the art was fantastic and it was funny. You never expected Batman to say something like that but you could imagine it. You can never imagine Superman looking so slovenly. He was supposed to be perfect.[/QUOTE] Dude allstar batman sucked balls because it wasn't supposed to be funny.
fuckin frank miller. he shoulda quit after batman: year one
[QUOTE=professor cool.;25681423]fuckin frank miller.[/QUOTE] Thems be fighting words. We dunt take kindly to yur folks round here.
Should have gone the opposite "Mad Men" retro 50s and 60s look instead of middle school chic angsty look.
What have they done?!
[QUOTE=CokeLight;25678341] I'm fucking sick of how everything fucking looks the same today. I miss the 90s. :colbert:[/QUOTE] But every comic in the 90's was the same fucking thing, DAMN YOU ROB LIEFELD! :argh:
[QUOTE=superdinoman;25681591]Thems be fighting words. We dunt take kindly to yur folks round here.[/QUOTE] no no see i love a lot of his work. DKR is fantastic, batman: year one is great, sin city is pretty good too, some of his other stuff is rad. but he sorta went off the deep end and is now crazy and not so good.
Reminds me of this A LOT [img]http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/8840/asplannedrd3.jpg[/img]
Apparently Yahoo doesn't know what a hipster is.
[QUOTE=professor cool.;25680273]all-star batman sucks, dude! also, supes is supposed to look "slovenly" when hes being clark kent. thats how he fools people, its not just the glasses[/QUOTE] Come here and say that!:biggrin: Yeah I agree it is not what is expected of Batman but still I think it worked on some level. And I always thought Clark Kent was supposed to be mild mannered, presentable, dependable but entirely boring. A sort of person you would want your daughter to marry but never run off with yourself. It created a parallel with his life as Superman. Now if he has to fight a dumpster full of hobos for a slice of pizza in his alter ego, reversing time by turning the world in the opposite direction will seem boring.
Meh, not a big deal, they always do this. Remember when he had a mullet? [editline]27th October 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=CokeLight;25678341]I miss the 90s. :colbert:[/QUOTE] Anyone who was old enough to experience them will tell you the same thing. I mean early '80s kids, not kids born past 1990. [QUOTE=Doriol;25682712]Apparently Yahoo doesn't know what a hipster is.[/QUOTE] Beatnik meets metrosexual.
How is that hipster? seriously. A hood and a shirt is hipster?
[QUOTE=GodKing;25685639]Meh, not a big deal, they always do this. Remember when he had a mullet? [/QUOTE] No, they took that out because it was becoming too awesome to print.
[QUOTE=GodKing;25685639]Anyone who was old enough to experience them will tell you the same thing. I mean early '80s kids, not kids born past 1990.[/QUOTE] def. the 90s were a bad time for comics, though.
He looks like something out of a '90s cartoon
Judging by the emo (not hipster) look, I bet he listens to Linkin Park now. And his favorite song is now that song by 3 Doors Down.
I wouldn't have called this hipster. I would have called it [i]"Superman with red eyes and a hoodie"[/i].
[QUOTE=GodKing;25685639] Beatnik meets metrosexual.[/QUOTE] The beatniks were [I]the[/I] original hipsters
oh wow hahaha
Why did they give him red eyes?
[QUOTE=Zareox7;25690413]Why did they give him red eyes?[/QUOTE] heat vision...
He looks like Kon-El.
Hot. [img]http://nerdreactor.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Superman-Earth-One-03.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=Rong;25699774]Hot. [img_thumb]http://nerdreactor.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Superman-Earth-One-03.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] Looks stupid. Head seems too big for his body or something. And what's with the boots?
his new kryptonite is the new MacBook Air
[QUOTE=halflambada;25665689]why are they calling it "the twilight make over" when something becomes dark and edgier, shit has been becoming "Dark and edgier" WAY before Twilight even exisited[/QUOTE] Hell, comics pretty much INVENTED "darker and edgier". Anyway, I was interested in Earth One but that just looks stupid. [I]Grounded[/i] stupid.
idk if iever mentioned in fpunch before but... i fucking hate hipsters
[QUOTE=GodKing;25699805]Looks stupid. Head seems too big for his body or something. And what's with the boots?[/QUOTE] whats wrong with the boots? but yeah, the art for this isnt stellar.
