Fuck, I keep reading this right to left.

...

...

Is Damifag banned?

I want to get off this ride.

The rides just starting, now's your best chance

I prefer when Batman just uses codenames as opposed to actual names.

Urg shit,

Black Tim :D

Can't tell if this is genuine or an excellent imitations.

>wrote most of Grayson, is writing Vision, wrote Omega Men
>which were all good
>thinks that Snyder's Batman run was great
>when it actually sucked and he probably just enjoyed the pretty pictures Capullo drew like everyone else who claims to have liked Snyder's run did

Oooooooooooo, we're walking a fine line here.

Those sidekick costumes make me think that Batman's become Space Ghost

What manga were you reading before this.

Well that just makes the Bat Signal look silly when you view it from that vantage point.

You jinked it, Jim! You ruined everything again!

Did Jim ever manage to do this while he was Batman.

It's funny, because the way King described Duke's role and general arc is pretty much just like Tim.

>King gone casual: The Series
Putting him on Batman was a mistake.

...

Note: Hand positioning makes the Seat Belt symbol look like a bat. The yellow was a nice hint.

...

But he'll look like a pussy.

...

My god. It's on of my top 3 favorite batmobiles.

...

...

Fucking Superman, dead and replaced by Superman classic. Wonder Woman, going through that identity crisis.

I don't know what the others are doing, but it's probably something equally as banal.

...

Yeah, Hal isn't that good at saving his city.

...

King is so bad, The story is bad.

Remember that time Batman stopped 9/11?

...

...

The plane thing is really stupid.

...

...

I enjoyed. Nothing mindblowing, but decent stuff so far.

Still a bit sore over the handling of Damian to Duke. But that's a complaint at DC more than it is at this specific book.

illegitimate reasons to hate it "omg, that story sucks!".

Alfred's still bitter about Bruce shaving off his beard, I see.

Did that even happen in the DC Comics universe?

bad jokes and dialogue .

Its happening right now

That wasn't so bad. A little weird but I'll check out the next issue at least. Thanks OP

>How would Batman handle a Superman-sized threat?

I know this will probably irk people but I thought it was a neat idea. Solid first issue IMO.

it's hopelessly, artlessly, brutally awful.

It was pretty okay OP.
Thanks.

>Watchmen shit

FUCK! This better just be Calendarman and not one of those overrated pastiche washouts.

The mother and father bit is a tad much.

CLARK IS DEAD!

Some friend you are, Bruce.

Casual shit. Goddamn King's pandering to casuals. And I don't like the art.

>And I don't like the art.

Yeah Finch and Janin are a cruel downgrade from Capullo

Which Batman villain will rape Gotham Girl?

That's been done. The guy's fought aliens, demons, reality warpers, and pretty much all the things Clark has fought before.

Who is this big guy?

Some of this dialogue is some. Very nonchalant and wooden

Alfred especially

Batman 1 is shit but Superman !AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW SSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT FUCKING GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>52
King, you magnificent bastard

>Batman flies into the air on a rocket chair
>Takes the rockets off the rocket chair
>Slaps them onto the wings of a commercial airliner
>rides the plane
this is absolutely the most retarded thing I have ever read.

Correction: This is the most BATMAN thing you have ever read

also, this was a strange issue 3/5

Why are superheroes so silly? Why can't they be more mature like Zack Snyder makes them.

> that whole sequence

>silly
Oh yeah him giving his last will and testament to his surrogate dad while asking if this will be a good death is just zany

What's that cartoony robot in the bottom corner?

>King didn't crash the plane with no survivors
I'm disappointed

lrn 2 read

Didn't think co would turn on King after just 1 issue

>53 seconds
For what purpose?

Flash is too busy investigating the Rebirth stuff and Watchmen pin with Batman to come help.

>52
Better.

This just rings of the worst kind of "Better Than Superman" Batwank...

Blatant Falliable/Killable Analogues to Kara and Clark and an action sequence ripped right out of Returns

>Watchmen shit
What Watchmen shit?

he's assuming the guy in the shadow is from Watchmen

>Watchmen shit
Wait, what?
>Flash assembling parts really fast
Every time.

I don't think you know the meaning of either of those words.

yes, everything is against Superman
even Batman killing himself trying to save a plane

straight out of Thunderbirds

You haven't read many comics then.

Thanks, OP. I enjoyed it and am curious to see how this run will end up.

It's obviously Calendar Man.

Heh, nothing is ever good with Sup Forums - as an amalgamation of (supposed) comicbook enthususiasts, you lot seem very keen on pissing on the genre/artists/writers.
Not even offering constructive criticism or mature discussion - nope, it's Sup Forumstard level, self entitled childishness.

And it's in every thread, every topic - the same verbal vomit. If you dislike something, don't read it. Read something you do like.

It was going to happen no matter what was in the issue

Meh. Enough to keep me reading, but that's about it.

:DDD

>Is this a good death?

Thanks Tom now I'm crying.

>implying Sup Forums isnt the best board despite being utter garbage

Ozymandias and Doctor Manhattan have all ready showed up.

Batman found a Comedian pin during the Rebirth special.

And this guy mentioned clocks, which are a big part of Watchmen.

So he's (hopefully) Calendar Man or another Minutemen member.

Lurk more.

>this is absolutely the most awesome thing I have ever read.

Fixed.

If Red Hood did it, you'd say Lobdell is shilling his FEATS.

Your pic is from a comic where Batman fired one massive energy blast at Darkseid and then ran like a bitch while Darkseid just looked mildly annoyed by the whole thing.

because nobody in comics have ever had a thing about clocks before Watchmen. EVER

CRASHING THIS PLANE...

Jordie Bellaire is a goddamn miracle worker

I liked it but I don't think King has Batmans voice nailed down yet. It seems a little off

He also murdered Darkseid in Final Crisis.

no that was Superman and Flash, Batman just damaged his mortal body with a bullet he found around

i love how king's first batman issue is "Let's do the classic Superman thing"

dat batmobile doe

this issue is so fucking good

Red Hood isn't Batman. Red Hood isn't on the Justice League.

Red Hood has never shot Darkseid or beaten up Superman or escaped the Omega Sanction.

So yeah, if Red Hood did this I would be less impressed than when Batman does it.

Gotham is a stupid name for a super hero. Gotham Girl isn't that bad, though.

No he didn't.

>this issue is so fucking shit.

...

8/10 start for King, his dialogue just needs some time, he needs to find Bruce's voice
