Are we whitefonting stuff about the DC reboot, once it's been reported? I can't remember.

More Superman stuff (spoilery): [link] I am utterly boggled. No Jonathan and Martha? No flight? (Well, at first, I guess.) And that short cape is appalling. If they're going to go with the Superboy t-shirt-and-jeans look, then ditch the fucking cape. It looks like it came from a kid's Halloween costume.

God. I am That Fanboygirl.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Here's a nice shot of them at SDCC: [link]

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That is a pretty great picture, indeed.

Please tell me there's a judged costume contest and they took the grand prize?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I read DC's promo of all their reboot comics, and everything sounds remarkably....OK. I mean, you can't tell Superman's going to be emo, or single, or both parents are dead. But there isn't anything that says "Wow, I'm glad they're doing this."

From my conversation with the store owner, I still haven't found anyone pro-reboot, even second hand.

Art Crawl!!!

It's an astonishingly bad move on the part of DC. What were they thinking?

Is it on dccomics. com?

What were they thinking?

My guess? That the current (pre-reboot) status of the characters who are traditionally thought of as the JLA is SO screwed up that that have no chance of making a series of movies that could lead into a JLA movie, like Marvel did with the Avengers.
