    really wish I could dig on that young justice show

    it should be a thing I really dig on

    but it just kinda bores me, to be honest

    See that's my problem too.

    also their version of the Joker is awful and Blue Beetles accent is driving me nuts.

    Also
    can Lobo say anything other than Skeezy Fem?

    He said it like ten times fighting Batgirl and I think he said Main Man once
    .

    He's never talked like he has an accent in any other version. There are other ways to imply he's hispanic without giving him an accent that would be insulting to Eddie Guerero.

    "Any other version"

    He's been on, what, Brave and the Bold?

    and while I really enjoy Will Friedel, dude does not sound like a hispanic teenager from El Paso who speaks Spanish among his family as often as English

    there is a difference between being super offensive and stereotypical and actually having an ethnic character speak with a dialect common to the area they live in

    I really think the amounts of bitching about the Joker is ridiculous considering he's had like, ten minutes of screen time.

    Seriously guy he's pretty much not in the show.

    About Rises, has it occured to anyone that Catwoman
    Could be Talia after she changed her name to get away from Bane?

    I just don't see how he has a thick accent. He's like fifth generation or something. He should sound more like Freddie Prinze Jr. if they wanted to go that direction.

    Also has he not told anyone his suit has an AI? That might preclude the " Dude's a schizo" looks

    Three things about that trailer.
    Bane is not fucking around is he? From the looks of it he and his crew have basically taken over Gotham.

    That shot where Bane just grabs Batman's fist, like it's nothing, is awesome.

    Also awesome?

    Catwoman: "Who's behind you?"

    *Thug turns around*

    Batman: "Me."

    Without context, that shot of Selina twist-flipping that convict's arms came across as hilarious to me.

    Yeah

    Young Justice Blue Beetle is pretty cool and funny

    but even more than that, he doesn't sound stereotypical and the occasional spanish word he says fits in well with his English

  • Crimson KingCrimson King Registered User regular
    i get the feeling that catwoman is going to be cool but not very catwomanny

    or at least the way i think of catwoman. but half the time catwoman in the comics isn't anything like how i think of catwoman.

  • TallahasseerielTallahasseeriel Registered User regular
    Catwoman in Arkham City was perfect.

    Actually wait.

    TAS Catwoman is good too. Hmmm.

  • Crimson KingCrimson King Registered User regular
    catwoman in arkham city was sexist bullshit

    it's a pity winick's new series is so terrible, the world needs more good catwoman comics

  • SolarSolar Registered User regular
    Catwoman in Arkham City was cool except that she spoke in a sexy voice constantly

    I was wondering whether she does the same at home alone

    "hmmmmm... do I have beanssss on toast tonight, or cheese? *giggle"

  • SolarSolar Registered User regular
    The answer is of course both

    Oh? It's hard to notice sometimes.

    I was really only basing that on how fun she was to play as.

    But I guess you are right.

    Once again TAS is the perfect batman thing.

    what is this perversion

    anyway i'll really only be happy with a catwoman story that isn't about her relationships with sexy dudes

  • SolarSolar Registered User regular
    Well I mean

    I did really like Arkham City

    TAS Catwoman is okay I guess

    I do like TAS Batman but not as much as you guys I think

    (TAS is the only batman I care about)

    Catwoman to me is a thrill seeker who doesn't really need what she steals she just wants Batmans attention. She's all about the image of a sexy thief . While she'is just as smart as Bruce she doesn't have his self control or moral code.

    TAS sort of went that route towards the end.

    I think my favorite Catwoman personality is from Batman: Year One

    but that's also the one with the stupidest, most idiotic and over the top origin for her

    i.e. S&M prostitue

    I really wish someone could take her character from there as she was and just give her an origin that isn't terrible

    wasn't she just like

    undercover?

    private detectivin'/freelance thiefin' her way into some leather-clad jerk's inner circle?

    i feel like making her too Batman-centric weakens Catwoman as a character in her own right

    like i want to see a Catwoman series which doesn't mention Batman once

    that's not to say they shouldn't have a relationship, but neither one should be dependent on the other. and if anything Bruce should be the one who comes to Selina for emotional support, not the other way around.

    also i agree the dominatrix stuff is fucking awful

    That was a retcon. Frank Miller made her an actual prostitute because WHORES WHORES WHORES.

  • DouglasDangerDouglasDanger PennsylvaniaRegistered User regular
    frank miller shouldn't be allowed to write anything ever again
    he is an amazing artist, if you get past or embrace the WHORES WHORES WHORES stuff, Sin City has some of the best use of light and shadow I have ever seen, and I like how hew drew people in DKR and DKSA, even if Bruce, Marv and Hartigan have the same face, and Wallace is just the other guy from Sin City with a beard and long hair
