Green Lantern looks like he will be fighting evil in a bathrobe... which is awesome. I can't tell if he is righteously angry or just trying to stay warm in the cold. Surprised no one has resorted to masturbation jokes yet...

Good god, nothing can be as bad as Superman's '90s mullet!

thanks for looking up the link for the interview. I loved his Weapon X storyline and thought it was so much better than ORIGIN. I have also seen some of his Conan work which I thought was excellent. I'll have to check out some of his non-Marvel/DC work. A really great interview.

I assume Travis "Charts" he mentions is Charest, who did evolve from a glorified Jim Lee clone to one of the better artists in the industry, though he's right he had a ton of trouble with storytelling initially.

Lots of condescension in that interview, however. Some of it probably justified, sure, but still.

I was reading these last month and haven't put them back in the box.
If you have a chance to check them out you can see how his work evolved and how it actually improved in Weapon X.

Wonder Woman's 70s bush.

I always thought Supergirl's 80's curly hair was a mistake and then they added that headband to it.

@mrhan

I remember seeing his first issue of Marvel's Conan comic book with him as the artist, and then seeing his artwork from later in his career, on the same character, in Savage Sword of Conan magazine. Big difference.

About Supergirl's 80s look, I actually kind of like it for some reason. The headband looks stupid, but I kind of like the stylized S connected to the cape.

About Superman's mullet, that's one of the reasons I stopped buying the Superman comics after he returned. Probably a stupid reason but oh well.

I loved Supergirl's 80s look. The curls were perfect. Looked great to me

I started reading Superman regularly about 3 years before Crisis and stopped just after the Death of Superman. That story was wretched.

From my collection ...

Superman's mullet drove me to drop his books at the time.

He looks like Super Macho Man from Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!

Does Superman do the pec dance too?

Holy shit he does.

I actually know the new writer. His son and and my boy are classmates in elementary school. I never talked to him about comics, though.

Sure why not. It's only comics.

Here is a scan of the comic page they are talking about in that article:

So Gordon isn't old in the new 52? I honestly hadn't seen him in the stuff I encountered.

So Guy Gardner is Commissioner Gordon in the Nu52?

New 52 Gordon looks like Gary Oldman's Gordon (who in turn looked like Gordon from Miller's Year One).




Yeah, the shaved mohawk looks stupid. Not sure why they went there. Gordon didn't have a shaved head in earlier New 52 stories.

The New 52 is over according to DC. Who knows what kind of universe or continuity this is post-Convergence.

It's still the "New 52" continuity. They just aren't calling it the "New 52" anymore since it's 4 years old now. (And they also gave up on the concept of keeping 52 ongoing titles.)

I haven't exactly been following DC but wasn't the new 52 started with the concept that pretty much nothing beforehand 'counted'? And isn't this Convergence the first real time they've mixed in the old stuff?

I am only reading a few New 52 titles, but for the most part it was a complete reboot with a few exceptions. The Grant Morrison run on Batman and the Geoff Johns run on Green Lantern are still canon in the New 52. Everything else pre-Flashpoint is pretty much non-canon now.

Well, big chunks of Morrison's Batman run and Johns' Lantern run are still canon. DC has gone back and "tweaked" portions here and there to match up with the idea that only 6 years have passed since Superman first showed up.

Yeah. Convergence is the first time that any pre-Flashpoint continuity is being acknowledged.
