Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

Trying to follow what's canon and not is quite a challenge in comics nowadays. :)

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

One thing that I found confusing was the Batman/Superman story about Supergirl done by Michael Turner (made for video as Apocalypse). It re-introduces Supergirl, yet it alludes to Superman's death...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

I always kind of took that incident as proof Joker knew Batman's identity. Death of the Family claims it has been since Batman took in Dick Grayson. However, Wayne seems kind of shocked that Joker...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

Just finished reading the collected edition of Death of the Family. I agree that it's a story where the road to the payoff is better than the actual payoff itself. I didn't really see that

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

I actually grew up in a small city in Kentucky. I will admit that most comics were only available through groceries and bookstores. However, because it was a college town, we always had at least...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

There doesn't. Think my attempt to illustrate what was perceived as such by myself and friends growing up got out of hand. The point is kind of moot today.

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

I think we might be having an apples and oranges type situation. I would never say someone isn't hardcore because of the way things were when they were children. You're pretty much at the whims of...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

During the time where I was growing up, I think and argument could be made for that point. I remember guys at my high school driving to bigger areas with larger comic stores so they could get what...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

I'm not saying you can't be hardcore now, I was talking about then , meaning youth, which for me was early to mid 90s. I will admit that I didn't get majorly into comics until I was old enough to...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

Okay, maybe not "true" as much as hardcore. I will say that if you got them from the shops you would have the issues well before those who purchased from newsstands.

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

Interesting. I will say that it was always common knowledge that a true comic book fan bought from a comic store, not the newsstand. Mainly because newsstands were a few weeks behind the stores in...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

I have to say, I just recently noticed that comics are no longer readily available in drug or grocery stores. Wonder what lead to such a downsizing of retail outlets? I know in my small town we...

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide

Well, if there's anything worse than trying something drastic, it's building up something and then copping out at the end. Of course it does resolve one Batman mystery that's been around for a while.

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
