DC Comics - Which do YOU read?
Replies
SO, I don't know about anyone else, but I am HUGELY into DC Comics! I'm looking for people to discuss them with! So if you love (or even like) DC Comics, come talk about them here.
Do you read any of the New 52? What about the new DCYou universe? Or are you into the old school stuff? Who are your favorite characters?
With the start of the new DCYou universe, I'm trying out a few different issues. Currently I'm reading: Batman Beyond, Starfire, Justice League, Justice League of America, Bizarro (OMG LOVE), Harley Quinn and Power Girl, Earth 2 Society, and when it comes out I'll be reading Cyborg as well.
My favorite characters of all time are Superman, Batgirl (Barbara Gordon), and Nightwing!
I'm hoping this is the right place, since I wasn't entirely sure comic books fell under Literature.. xD if not, UAs, feel free to move!
pfffff.... DC....
juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuust kidding <3
I only very recently got into comics (and I tend to favor Marvel more) but I did read Batman: Hush a couple months ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. It introduced to me (I've never been huge batman person) a lot of characters and their personalities. I'd say I came out of it a bigger fan of batman (and moreso than superman sorry lol)
I have a similar problem with Marvel. I'm more into DC, so I don't really know too much about the Marvel universe aside from the MCU. I have read Civil War though, which was pretty awesome! (That's OK, I have my husband to cover the Batman love, I'd rather have the rest of the Bat family.)
UNNNNNNGH IM SUCH BAT TRASH
i've been working my way through some of the staples (powering through knightfall atm), but nightwing and birds of prey are next on my list
i've also been getting into the authority (which is technically wildstorm, but the midnighter solos are under DC specifically, so i'ma throw it in here) - i've picked up the new midnighter releases but haven't read them yet and i enjoy tf out of grayson
since i'm a late bloomer to the comic world, i don't have a huge problem with NEW 52, and I'm also currently catching up on the batman and robins from there
my favorite characters are damian wayne, bruce wayne, the joker, harvey dent/two face, and i have a ridiculously big soft spot for waylon jones/killer croc xc
(also oberon sexton is my spirit animal - i am oberon, oberon is me)
ok so all my favorites are batman rn but i'll eventually branch out (i really like bart allen/impulse, so i was thinking of checking out some of the flash works)
of all my favorites, damian wayne is the tops of the pops. he's terribly fascinating (and way bastardized by the fandom wtf) - batman is one of my go-to verses, i've reread the issue and the follow up about 4324324324 times :x it breaks my heart but seeing just how far damian is willing to go to uphold his father's mantle (and seeing just how little he actually thinks of himself) is really interesting
i wanted to try some superman too! any recs on where to start or what to check out??
knightfall wtf-ing +_+
also, i'm at the part in knightfall right after everything first goes down and bane puts bats outta commission
and ok jean paul is cool and all (i'm lyin, he's on my last nerve as batman jfc) bUT IS NO ONE GOING TO CALL DICK TO TELL HIM BRUCE HAD HIS BACK BROKEN?????? LIKE??????? NOT EVEN ALFRED????
EVEN WITH BRUCE BEING LIKE "he's his own man now, we cant ask him to take on the role of batman" HE'S STILL YOUR ADOPTED SON/BROTHER/EX PARTNER
this might one of those things he'd like to know
(DID WE LEARN NOTHING FROM WHEN YOU DIDNT TELL HI MABOUT TAKING ON JASON????)
ok done (i'VE BEEN DYING TO TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT ALL THIS STUFF SORRY FOR THE MASSIVE TEXT RAMBLE ORZ)
