Kaftan Barlast Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 This following rant contains MASSIVE spoiler regarding "Y: the last man" and DC's "Death of the new gods". regarding "Death of the new gods" and DC's latest cleansing of their universe You people know that I was afraid that my longtime DC favorite hero Big Barda would be one of the new gods to die in DC's new miniseries. So it was with dread I read the first issue #1 and.. the horror. Not only was Barda drawn very badly, but she dies off-screen, without a fight. "The world doesnt end with a bang, it ends with a whimper". Anticlimactic does not begin to describe it. Especially since DC has aknowledged that the series is a way for them to get rid of outdated characters, and so Barda is gone from the world of comics forever. gah. She was hypnotized into making porn films with Superman FFS! How can you delete a character like that?! While keeping unintresting leftovers from the 1930's like the green arrow. I hate DC. regarding Y: The Last man (do NOT read if you havent read #58) In issue 58/60, a certain popular characters bites the dust. Sinc it will spoil the entire series, I wont even write who it is, but those of us who have read it; were you as shocked as I was? I did not see it comming. And it was my favorite character aswell so I just feel really bummed out. It was with dramatic style, I grant Vaughn that, but Im still pissed. I dont know if i will bother to read the last 2 issues now. Why do they always do this to me?! Is there some rule that states that kaftan's favorite characters must always die horribly and pointlessly? What's next, Deadpool being thrown into the sun and out of print? Bleh.

Kaftan Barlast Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Are you talking about Frank "the punisher" Castle stealing his mask and that whole thing?

Kaftan Barlast Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 (edited) Ive never liked him, so Im sceptical to that idea. It takes a real mans-man to fill Steve Rogers shoes. And regarding dead heroes, Im thinking of comissioning a sort of memorial to my favorite characters, so Im wondering if anyone here knows of a kickass artist who takes comissions?

Kaftan Barlast Posted October 19, 2007 Author Share Posted October 19, 2007 www.deviantart.com . Ive made 5 attempts to express my loathing for that scumpit, but I cant without using *** words so Ill just say that no artist of integrity would go near that place.

Oerwinde Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Captain America is back. This is the new design, by Alex Ross. I like some of it, but hate other parts. I can live with it. The gun indicates a more morally neutral Cap, which indicates either Winter Soldier, or someone new donning the mask. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

The gun indicates a more morally neutral Cap, which indicates either Winter Soldier, or someone new donning the mask. It won't last long. People don't read Marvel comics to see people shoot the villains unless they're reading Punisher. So many hero/supervillain conflicts in Marvel wouldn't last two pages if one guy just shot the enemy.

thepixiesrock Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 I'm sure it wouldn't be hard for them to have a main character with a gun and then work in a struggle where he doesn't just shoot the guy.

thepixiesrock Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Like, the villain gets the drop on him, and his gun falls down an elevator shaft, and then the struggle makes it's way into the stairwell, where they fist fight down all 37 flights of stairs, and then he gets the gun and shoots the villain.
