Deadline reports FX has ordered a pilot written by Michael Green (American Gods, Blade Runner 2049), who will serve as showrunner with Aida Mashaka Croal (Luke Cage, Turn).
Super excited for this. One of my fav comics.

Action Comics #1000 is released today

Kalyx triaD 04-18-2018 09:19 AM

With underwear.

Lock Jaw 04-18-2018 09:37 AM

Gonna pick it up after work.

Lock Jaw 04-18-2018 10:18 AM

Super excited about the underpants being back. Probably way more excited than a grown man should be.

slik 04-18-2018 12:19 PM

I don't 'get' why is anyone is bothered by it.
That's how Supes looked for most of his existence. I'm cool w/ it.

Because underwear on the outside looks kind of goofy
Wait does this mean he's going back to it because I was kind of enjoying his Kryptonian armoresqe suit

Lock Jaw 04-18-2018 03:02 PM

He hasn't been in the armour since Rebirth, but he still had no underpants.

The underpants really tie the costume together, IMO

Lock Jaw 04-18-2018 07:22 PM

Bought it. There was a whole slew of covers for it and I had a hard time choosing, and immediately regretted my pick (although it is good).

Anyways.... about to crack it open and read....

slik 04-18-2018 09:10 PM

Which cover did u get... K Lane got this one

That's the one I got too, actually.

Was struggling with not getting the one on the top left:

"1940s variant" Superman vs tank

Couldn't find a better picture of it online with the logo

Lock Jaw 04-18-2018 09:28 PM

Looking at it again, wish I got it

Lock Jaw 04-18-2018 09:51 PM

Just read Superman #45 and it was excellent...... sad to see this creative team go..... I hope Bendis doesn't mess everything up......

Kalyx triaD 04-25-2018 12:49 PM

Aquaman trailer and Shazam sizzle reel were presented at a DCEU panel and... reactions were positive.

slik 04-25-2018 01:36 PM

Oh I didn't hear about Shazam yet. I gathered Aquaman looks epic and massive...and that makes me happy, I've always been an Aqua fan.

Destor will be happy to learn Bradley Cooper's directorial debut, the musical remake of A Star Is Born, starring Cooper/Lady Gaga also apparently went over like gangbusters with it's trailer.

Batwoman announced for next season's DCWVerse crossover

Destor 05-18-2018 12:04 AM

Im down. I'll have to watch arrow again i guess...

Lock Jaw 05-18-2018 12:06 AM

I'm pretty far behind on both Flash and Arrow right now.... haven't watched either in weeks...... Actually, I'm two weeks behind on Supergirl now too.....

Destor 05-18-2018 12:23 AM

Flash has been climaxing really well. Really enjoying it. Supergirl is a bit of chore but its more meh than bad. Arrow i havent watched in at least 8 weeks.

Ezra 05-18-2018 12:59 AM

Haven't seen an episode of arrow, flash or supergirl since winter break so I've got some binging to do.

Lock Jaw 05-18-2018 01:02 AM

I was also enjoying Black Lightning, but haven't watched it in ages either.

Just too many shows on TV.

Watched the first two episodes of Krypton, but I just don't want to commit to it so I stopped taping it. (especially since those two episodes didn't grab me at all)

Ezra 05-18-2018 01:57 AM

I haven't touched either of those but they are both on my watch list. Haven't seen a single episode of agents of shield either. I'm so far behind. TV season is about done though so i will have plenty to watch as summer comes full force.

I'm sure they will just be generic out of continuity stories

slik 06-22-2018 04:46 PM

Written by Tom King, Palmiotti, Bendis, etc though...which means they will likely be really good. Bendis's Batman story will be 12 issues long.

Destor 06-22-2018 05:12 PM

Sounds awful

Lock Jaw 06-22-2018 08:04 PM

I'm sure they will do graphic novels of the various new content from those books, which seems better than buying a book filled with a lot of reprint material or y'know having to go into a WalMart.

Kalyx triaD 06-23-2018 04:31 PM

Out of continuity stories and 1-shots with very badic status quos is how a LOT of people got introduced into comics at a young age. It wasn't The Long Halloween #4, it was some random mini-adventure of Batman chasing Joker, sold at a 7-11. Both Marvel and DC need to beef up stuff like that again.

Lock Jaw 07-04-2018 02:07 PM

Just read Batman #50, the big wedding issue of Batman/Catwoman

SPOILER: show
They don't get married in the end

slik 07-04-2018 06:27 PM

I enjoyed Batman #50

I also really enjoyed Bendis's six-part Man Of Steel miniseries and I will definitely check out Action Comics when he takes over.

Lock Jaw 07-05-2018 01:20 AM

Need to pick up the last three issues of Man of Steel..... haven't been by the comic book shop in awhile....

Destor 07-05-2018 01:28 AM

If you dont go itll go out of business

slik 07-05-2018 03:51 PM

A lot of good stuff I've read in DC lately:


Flash Wars
Batman by Tom King
Justice League by Scott Snyder
Man Of Steel by Bendis
Plastic Man
Hawkman
Sideways
Doomsday Clock


Looking forward to the next event series "Heroes in CRISIS" as well

Lock Jaw 07-12-2018 02:15 AM

James Tynion's Detective Comics run that just ended was really good too..... if you never checked it out..... I hope the dude taking over can still make it good.....

Enjoyed Flash War
Justice League and Hawkman also pretty good....

Finished Man of Steel and thought it started off a lot better than it ended..... we shall see where it goes from here, though....

Sideways is alright..... even if it reminds me of some sort of riff on Spider-Man...... Haven't read some of the other "new age of heroes" one yet.... Damage is pretty much a riff on The Hulk, and The Silencer is pretty much a riff on John Wick..... The Terrifics reminds me of Fantastic Four (while New Challengers does not)

He will always be Chuck to me.

Sixx 07-18-2018 03:10 AM

But dayum, this looks good.

slik 07-18-2018 08:42 AM

Looks like what I'd want a Shazam to look like.
