"I was in town for my brother's wedding and I went to the library, which was so important to me growing up, and I saw the Superman display," he said in a telephone interview from his home in Portland, Ore. "It was a flood of impressions and Cleveland connections. While looking at the Superman artifacts, I realized that I had not climbed the DC mountain and I needed to."
>"I just had a landmark (50th) birthday and I had lost a lot of weight and I was thinking about what else I could do to scare myself," he said. "What could I do next? DC was coming at me pretty hard with offers that were hard to resist. But it was not until I walked into the library that everything came together. I remembered how much I connected with Superman, how I was an artist during the 1988 Superman convention in Cleveland (The Neverending Battle celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Man of Steel.)"
>Bendis said he stopped into the library to talk to officials about an offer they made for an exhibit of his work, when he saw Superman everywhere.
>"Somehow, I did not know about the exhibit," he said. "When I walked in and saw it, I felt like the library was my own personal museum that I needed to see and walk through. I then realized I had to take DC up on their offer, it was so head-turning that I really could not refuse."
Get ready for Action #1000
Charles Walker
How much harm could he do anyway? We already have bad writers like dematteis and orlando
Nathan Allen
>Bendis on the right >DC on the left
Joseph Cox
>Bendis will write Superman
God I feel bad for Superfags. I'm so sorry for what's about to come.
Easton Ramirez
This. Rebirth has barely two books worth reading and Superman has been mediocre since decades. How much damage will even Bendis cause to an already dead thing?
Nicholas Evans
>Bendis writes Action Comics >Jurgens takes over as Superman editor not that Berganza is gone Action Comics #1001 here we come
Hudson King
>He doesn't know about Jurgens' rape cave
Christopher Gutierrez
>what else I could do to scare myself how about writing a decent, coherent plot?
John Jackson
Wait- what?
Zachary Kelly
Now, not that
Henry Perry
>I was in town for my brother's wedding Your brother's wedding?
William Green
His brother's wife's son's wedding
Hudson Davis
His brother's wife's son's wedding? The wedding of his wife's son? The son of his brother's wife? That son?
Logan Williams
hahaha don't be. very few fans of DC characters have enough taste to reject their capeshit. you could literally sell ripped up pieces of newspaper for dc comics and dc fanboys would still blow their load on it
Mason Perez
With the amount of mediocre Superman books that are well liked, Superfags will eat up Bendis too. They'll even call it rebirth magic.
Anthony Garcia
Yep, that son.
Brayden Peterson
so it's all probably just for a bigger paycheck? lame
Adam Myers
Marvelfags ladies and gentlemen.
Zachary Brown
>Superman sells better than 99% of Marvel's catalog >One of the 4 comic book characters that can carry multiple titles >"Dead" Marelcucks aren't good even for shitposting.
Levi Bennett
I see the Marvel intern's upset about losing Bendis
Charles Campbell
DC wil be dead like the DCEU.
Tyler Reed
Of course. Now their biggest writers are Slott, Waid and Aaron. After this, it only comes CBR users hired by Marvel.
Adrian Watson
Bendis going to rape Superman.
Joshua Reed
>Bendis on Superman Oh God please no. No no no no.
Joshua Jackson
He will make Lois have an affair with a black guy and get pregnant then Superman raises the son with her
Adrian Diaz
>implying he won't just make Lois black
Luis Nguyen
>Sells >Multiple titles He carries only 2 titles now, and that too out of tradition and not sales since Action Comics barely manages 30K. If sales are a measure of quality, Slott would be quality as well.
Brayden Smith
>He must be a Marvelfag if he doesn't like reddit comics
David Lee
How many characters can carry two tiles?
Captain America can't, Iron Man can't, Thor can't. Are those characters dead as well?
Both Action Comics and Superman were outselling Captain America, for example. How much dead is Captain America as a franchise, then?
Josiah Reyes
Yup, just our luck
Matthew Long
Captain America, Iron man and Thor were never alive to begin with. Marvel is finished.
Camden Adams
Uhh, so you're saying... he wait, he went to that son's wedding?
Nathan Rodriguez
Based bends
Jason Cruz
>implying he won't just make superman earth 23 canon
Matthew Sullivan
It's gonna hurt. It's gonna hurt bad.
Let's all try to remember the good times, like Jon and his loli-alien gf.
Brandon Diaz
Yep, that wedding, he went to.
Colton Myers
>Earth 23 >Posts Earth 2 One job.
Blake Davis
>it's a Sup Forums pretends to care about Superman episode
Evan Davis
God, Super-Obama hasn't aged well.
Evan Perry
>reading Final Crisis >my teenage daughter passes by and say "he's cute"
Carson Parker
But, the son of.
Nicholas Martinez
If that were my daughter she'd be kicked out of the house on the spot, it's probably too late for your daughter, sorry man
William Cooper
This is what happens when you let her listen to top40
Leo Sanders
>Final Crisis was nearly 10 years ago Pics of daughter, currently.
Andrew Jackson
>Bendis will write a conversation between Ozymandias, Luther and Superman
Nathaniel Jones
>literally sell ripped up pieces of newspaper for That's a pretty accurate description of Slott's ASM and the current X-Men status yet Marvelfags keep buying those.
Levi Roberts
...
Aaron Reyes
At least Bendis won't be so aggressively boring like current hacks.
Ryan Gomez
Boring would lead you to not care, but you guys are massively asshurt. So I'm inclined to think you're just a manchild screaming autistically in rage about something you can't explain.
Angel Bell
Sort yourself out mate. You're suppose to be a father. Crikey.
Camden Cruz
Fucking A
Kayden Hall
I'm pretty sure, but it was his son or nephew again?
Christian Rivera
Black female Superman when?
Samuel Barnes
>Natasha Irons, Superheart
Nathan Watson
Is he leaving Marvel permanently? YESSSSSSSS
David Green
nice shitpost, cuck
Isaac Jones
PISS OFF GHOST
Justin White
Nice projection.
Thomas Lewis
Heh the MU doesn't revolve around those guys, unlike DC with their Superman fetish, Supes is the centre of the universe!!!
Cameron Morgan
>sales == quality Is that a fact?
Ryder Lopez
"Ozymandias? Like Alexander the great "Ozymandias"?
Juan Sullivan
Man, if bendis can lose that much weight, why can't I? Any tips?
Charles Scott
I'm kinda of interested in his Superman. I've disliked his recent Marvel work but hoping that he gets reinvigorated at DC.
Austin Sanchez
as long as he replaces jurgens and not tomasi, im ok with this. tomasi has brought superman back to life with his work on the solo, i don't want him to leave in exchange for bendis.
Mason Rivera
Eat less, exercise more
Colton Edwards
Don't snack as much, and drink water instead. Stick to regularly portioned meals, and start portioning smaller. If you get hungry between meals, keep drinking water.
Dominic Thompson
No, user is saying the Marvelfag likes Reddit comics (Mousevel), and dislikes non-Reddit comics (DC).
Ryan Long
So Jessica's new writer is a lady.
Start your bets!
Hunter Watson
This looks like a job for the Bruja!
Xavier Torres
It's probably Tamaki
Jonathan Harris
the America writer
Luke Lee
Kelly Thompson
Landon Bailey
I hope it's Gabby "EL LATINX" Rivera
Nolan Wood
>Get ready for Action #1000 Fuck Off!
Jackson Phillips
>I realized that I had not climbed the DC mountain and I needed to Jesus ... he really *DOES* want to get cornholed by Luke!
Kayden Roberts
$100 Says he will introduce Superkid to an OC chick and he will confide in her that he is gay.
Samuel Jenkins
He just wants the Action #1000.
Evan Fisher
Honestly I don't know if it could be worse than Jurgens
Ayden Miller
How long till he replaces Superman with his black girl OC?
Connor Hall
>Honestly I don't know if bendis could be worse Yes. Trust, the answer is always yes. As in, "told meltzer his work was inspiring" likely to be shit.
Jacob Stewart
>Superman finally great again in the comics >is shit in the movies >JL finally gets Superman right >Bendis takes over from Tomasi and Gleason GOD DAMN FUCKING MONKEY PAW.
Jack Murphy
>Been telling superfags Bendis is getting Action >Superfags call me a Batfaggot >which is true >and say I'm just talking shit >here it comes >sweet vindication >feels bad mang Seriously, no one deserves this. I'm so sorry superbros.
Eli Thomas
I wonder if he'll actually give Obama Superman any definite roles
Josiah Russell
pretty sure he's pretending things were not awful for him at marvel.
Charles Johnson
Being cucked by Slott and having the OC based on his daughter removed from the main picture really did a number on his ego.
Cooper Morgan
>Making Jon gay when he has that cute loli alien He wouldn't dare.
Bentley Fisher
Marvel been bleeding "talent" for years now.
Jason Evans
Black girls are coming.
Hunter Wilson
Man, he looks old. I just realized he'll probably die within my lifetime. Feel sad for a moment.
Gabriel Evans
Enjoy your future single mother daughter and your defective grand children that will never feel like they belong anywhere.
Oliver Wilson
>black superman Least it explains why Krypton exploded.
Kayden Allen
I like to think that fat lex luthor is writing superman
Robert Nelson
There is also a chance he becomes a DC's version of Stan Lee...
Liam Ross
Bendis hasn't written something that isn't aggressively boring in a decade
Jeremiah Cruz
Infamous Iron Man was pretty solid imo.
Jace Turner
>BMB will leave right in the middle of his Marvel stories >just like he left his Ultimate universe plot threads hanging
fuuuuuuuuuuuck
Colton Clark
>I am curious (BENDIS)
Samuel Parker
If you think this is anything other than him trying to literally destroy DC with sjws like he did to Marvel then you're a gullible naïve idiot.
John Smith
I just happy he is gone. I just wanted miles to get a new writer.
