X-Men Regenesis, some of the better team building moments, like Dazzler and Cyclops:

Generation Hope #12, Rockslide's best moment, everything else is downhill from here:

Batman & Robin #2, the third best canine companion in comics shows up, and Damian needs to chill the hell out:

And finally, Uncanny X-Force #16 shows why proper diet is necessary:

Fantomex was eaten, so that's where the murgle came from (and it's like cutting yourself out of a whale in another page)

    Wait...what happened to Damien?

    He was turning into a well adjusted crazy person under Dick's mentorship like the rest of the bat family and now he's running around killing small animals like a future serial killer in the making?

    Her name is Transonic and that's a very basic shapeshifting joke as old as the concept

    plus they're nothing alike other than being blue

    Fixed that for you. Regenesis did a pretty horrible job of identifying characters.

    Anyways, my MOTW: "Ha! Bobby dated a crazy chick."

    He's already an assassin

    They are not really the same

    Though I guess you could argue that they are, thinking about it

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Yeah an assassin is technically just a serial killer who is professional about it

    How many people has Damien killed?

    I mean he was raised by Assassins and all that

    But he's ten years old

    There is only so much assassinating he could have done

    it isnt about the numbers of people killed, rather in those formative years something broke in damien where he wants to kill... he is kind of a parallel for james jordon jr, that despite any amount of training, explanation, surrogate loving family, fatherly advice or other, he is going to grow up to be a sociopath (as opposed to psychopath, splitting hairs really).. and bruces own opinion that allowing him to be robin isnt really helping the problem. but batman doesnt believe in lost causes

    Assassins can stop killing anytime and probably wouldn't kill an animal just for the hell of it, a serial killer kills because they feel compelled to. I've been watching Korean movies, this is all accurate stuff.

    And lets not forget, Damian could have (and should have) killed Zsasz back in Streets of Gotham but didn't, a dude who deserved that fate.

    Will get some scans later, but gonna be as hard as last week to not post the entire issue and just pick one page.

    Spider-Island, ASM 671, oh man!
    Spider-sense + Kung Fu.
    Morbius the secret scientist.
    Kaine normallized and re-spidey-powered!
    And a moment that has me filled with both glee and sadness, depending on it's future callbacks
    Mary Jane has her spider powers finally, and is swinging around being all, "ya I kick ass", when she hears a scream for help, then another, and knows her only choice is to go help, making her realize Spidey never had the choice either, and now she finally understands! (really touching moment, that the fanboy in me can build hope upon)

    In Conclusion, if you aren't reading Spider-Island, you are really depriving yourself of a lot of fun!

    Is it wrong to wish Sinestro would stay the GL over in the GL book and not Hal? Because hes infinitely more entertaining.

  • TexiKenTexiKen Dammit! That fish really got me!Registered User regular
    No, as long as he keeps his nazi-isms to a minimum, Sinestro is a compelling GL to read about.

  • SolarSolar Registered User regular
    Was he actually touched for a moment there when that guy thanked him?

    Sinestro developing a bit of compassion for those he protects would be a pretty cool story, I think

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    edited October 2011
    It was a brief flash of compassion, yeah.

    I really like Sinestro and him totally outclassing Hal, who saved one lady and then wasted time flirting with her prior to Sinestro saving everyone, was fantastic.

    It's a nice parallel to what Sinestro did with Korugar vs what Hal does for Earth (and supports the argument he was having with Hal)

    Hal is a superhero that saves people in danger. Sinestro fixes the problem so that the danger isn't there

    Those Ultimate X-Men scans are really awesome. I'll have to pick it up when the trade comes out.

    Green Lantern was excellent. I love how Johns writes Sinestro.

    I still have a hard time accepting that a guy, who fans used to refer to as Space Hitler, is not having his teeth punched out by every superhero on Earth.

    Or did they all forget how he led Superboy Prime, Cyborg Superman, and the Anti-Monitor in an attack on Earth?

    I'm all about villains having redemptive story arcs, but this is like the Joker deciding to become a superhero. You'd think the massive body-count to his name would preclude him from heroics.

    I think people are quite realistic about how the Lanterns in general work, vis a vis Guardians are amoral idiots.

    Yeah there's that, and to answer your question Munch, it's still up in the air how much of all that they forgot. Or didn't forget. Or happened slightly differently. Or something.

    Yep. ATM, the Anti-Monitor and Superboy Prime definitely do not exist in this reality. And Cyborg Superman may not as well.

    Maybe in the DCnU, the Sinestro Corps War was just an extremely spirited debate.

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    I mean, SCW is easily fit into the reboot

    the Sinestro Corps amassed an army

    assaulted Earth

    was thwarted by GLs and also the Earth heroes
