Damnit Alec, you had ONE JOB.

Plants are doing just fine, user.

SECRET IDENTITY

These are pretty good for out-of-context.

In this issue Batman doesn't know. It wasn't bad.

Even disregarding how Ivy could infect everyone on Earth at the same time, how could she manage the mental strain of controlling everyone simultaneously?

She used her plant powers to manage to mental strain with a skjsdfasdfah-flower whose properties allow one to do that. You are a stupid idiot.

Maybe she has a group of telepaths that controls everyone else for her and all she has to do is control that group.

It has to do with the green and Swamp Thing. Next issue maybe will know something.

Was Ivy always so sassy?

Retarded and unnecessary dialogue.

King, please just give your life force to Stan Lee.

Doesn't Alfred sleep?

huh first dc appearance of trump

And he's saying "I love you too."

But Stan Lee is far worse.

Batman trying to punch Alfred without thinking. That's retarded.


This is a good idea for a story but the execution will probably be shit.

I think it might be Colbert.

Nope, appeared in Green Arrow

I think the brackets around his speech indicate he's speaking a foreign language, so probably not Colbert or an American.

He's speaking a foreign language.

>a good idea for a story
>the execution will be shit
Kings whole run in a nutshell, senpai.

King is shit.

>It's a Justice League jobs so Batman can prove once again how cool it is to not have any powers episode!
How many times have they done this over the last few years?

As many as your superfaggot ass needs to take

Nothing happened the series. Itslike im reading injustice.

It's a good thing Ivy isn't in one of her more misanthropic phases, otherwise there would be a lot of humans turned to fertilizer.

Why hasn't anyone called out Janin of using 3D models? Its atrocious.

it's Digital Justice bad

>Its like im reading injustice.

this has to be the worst 3d poser image ever.

this is so absurd, King has completely ruined Poison Ivy in 20 pages..Bendis should have gotten Batman, the wrong kid died.

>this has to be the worst 3d poser image ever.
I'd argue it's not even the worst on in this issue ( check out the 4th panel ):
Looks like a fucking barbi doll.

At least with these he did some work on the faces:
I mean: they're still stiff and robotic looking; and he still doesn't seem to grasp that you shouldn't have a busy overly detailed background that takes focus away from the figures in the foreground, but it's just annoying not cringe inducing.

Having said all of that: whoever it is in editorial that thought going from Mann and Jones back to this poser-shite really needs to be fired.

Could i get the first two panels without the speech box?

Why did she dress them in their costumes when they were unconscious?

...

This page is pretty

Mr. Miracle is decent but King's Batman is pure dogshit, do people genuinely enjoy it?

this page out of context, lul

I think it was Bruce who did that, because you know... Batman And Catwoman are their real identity

pretty sure it's just some corpodude, the pad has a stock business presentation slide on it

These type of larger than life bat stories have been the norm since 2011 mate. The usual detective work stuff is only saved for one or two issue till the next big epic story event.

Now imagine the number of new comic fans that got into comic books in the last 7 years. To them this is normal.


Add in the fact Morrison's run was larger than life as well and many people loved it. New fags of the last 7 years just developed shit taste by default. They have no idea that his run was usually celebrated as an exception rather than the norm

Holy hell, this takes me back to the identity crisis scene where Wally got stabbed by Deathstroke.

>do people genuinely enjoy it?
I mean: it sells better than pretty much any other comic ( but not nearly as well as Nu52 ); and you get people angrily defending it, but they're usually the "ur jest too stupid too unnerstand" Emperor's New Clothes types who also like to push Snyder's DC films as "kino."

I know, personally, I've never really had a problem with his dialog until Batman, where it just grates on me:
>"I say I shouldn't say things, and then I say them"
>"I'm going to say what I shouldn't say"
And don't even get me started on the whole bat-cat-batty shit:

don't acknowledge the faggot

"I'm Ivy"
>I'm Bane
>I'm Batman

I think I just got triggered.

Is she wearing a blanket as a perfectly form fitting dress?

i can see how this is gonna end.
talk talk talk, hurr duurr , swamp thing saves everyone in the end, well him or maybe animal man.

The sooner DC stops making comics the better

this is fucking garbage, and is also ignoring one whole glaring fucking thing opposes this:

fucking SWAMP-THING!

god, this is hot garbage.

i would honestly, genuinely prefer stick figures to 3d. godawful garbage art

I refuse to believe that the stronger magic people of DC wouldn't have some kind of mystic defenses in place to prevent the Green from doing shit to them

I'm not one to say this ever but this story needs Harley and fast

>it's a poser issue
Dropped

>>it's a poser arc
ftfy

Have you ever seen the Happening? Probably some flower pollen.

.... oh fuck. This is the Happening but without the dumb suicides or Batman speaking to a plant. instead Ivy turns all Elsa

.....Sauce?

You guys DO realize that he wasn't trying to punch Flash and Ivy used him to block right?

>Everyone?

Where is he? When is the last time we've seen him?

I genuinely don't mind Janin's art

Do you think King wakes up every morning, looks in the mirror and goes,

>I'm King

this art reminds me of the guy who did/does the sunstone webcomic

cute

Wait...
Batmans black trunks?? Where?

>Bruce Wayne drugs his fiancé
Oh the media will have a field day with this

No.

>batty
hate it

I can't even begin to imagine how uncomfortable those would be to sleep in

Does anyone not know Batman's secret identity?

Wow King found a way to shit on flash too.

Gee Ladderbro, I don't see you shitting on Vision way back when.

Kek

Wow. Did expect those to be brougt up.

Superman has the same face as Riddler because Janin is garbage.

So what are the odds this is all a shared hallucination between Bruce and Selina?
