The Bullshiting About Comics Thread w/ Justin & Friends

[Lee]

He was rumoured to be Black Adam last year, can't see that happening though.

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

The possibilities really excite me though, I really wish Marvel never got their claws into Idris Elba so he could be John Stewart but oh well. I imagine whatever they put Rock as will be a good fit and most likely have a cameo in BvS.

Oh and the next Marvel One Shot is called "Hail to the King". May address the real Mandarin or tie up the loose ends of Thor 2, who knows.

 

[Lee]

Bloody hell Idris Elba is only 41! The Rock is older than Elba.

Peter Parker is back!

He'll make his return in Amazing Spider-man #1 in April

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Michael Douglass is Hank Pym while Paul Rudd is Scott Lang.

Oh and apparently more JL characters will be in BvS and everyone is confirmed for Lex Luthor because fucking everyone has the inside scoop at DC.

 

[Lee]

I have no idea about Ant-Man so is the Pym/Lang thing the same as Barry Allen and Wally West as Flash or more Jay Garrick and Barry Allen?

 

[Shocky]

Michael douglas as Pym is a total fail.

Pym is the original, and more well known (if you could call if that) of the two. In fact he even creates Ultron. However Rudd as Lang is clearly the star of the movie which leaves questions to whether or not Pym abusing his wife at one point played a factor and what this means for Wasp ever being in MCU. I don't really care though, Wasp means nothing in the long run, neither does Antman, people just seem to want him because he's the founding member of The Avengers.

 

[Lee]

Seems to be a mix between the two then. Almost a mentor like role.

 

[Lee]

Constantine pilot ordered.

 

[JGlass]

There are a ton of new Marvel books coming out this week, including the brand new Miracleman. I'm going to buy it to see if it's any good/have it in case it's worth something someday. I'm mostly excited for X-Men Legacy, because it has one of the coolest covers ever.

New Miracle man? I'll have to take a look into that. The first issue of the old Miracleman (Alan Moore's of course) is one of the best issues of anything I've ever read.


I'm quite excited for a Constantine show, on the hopes that he's British and hateful and smokes too much. Whats Paul Betanny up to these days, besides voicing a robot? Hellblazer is an amazing series!

 

[justinsayne]

Chris Claremont is returning to the X-Men universe with a Nightcrawler solo series!! Fuck yes!!

Batman vs Superman has been pushed back to May of 2016 because it really is Justice League and they want to spread out the amount of characters they announce.

Also it's going head to head with an unnamed Marvel movie on the same day, most likely Doctor Strange.

 

[Lee]

Smart move on delaying Justice League.

 

[Phoenix]

Agreed, I can imagine with an already packed Summer 2015, it would be lost in the mix to other films like Avengers 2. Summer 2016 is a good idea to say that they are about the film, not what Marvel is doing.

Has anybody else seen the photos of Quicksilver, Toad, and Sentinel from DOFP? Should I be as angry as everyone else?

Who's angry? The Sentinel looks incredible, Quicksilver looks just as douchey as I imagine he'll act, and Toad looks nasty in all the right ways.

 

[Shocky]

I actually like all of the designs, considering they are 1973 based. Today lives and dies by the future sentinel reveal and the trailer.

All the websites I've been to aren't very pleased for some reason, at least on the Toad and QS front, which I don't get considering I doubt either of them have very much screen time.

I especially don't understand why people are upset about Toad. Regardless of how big or small his role in the film is, he looks like a scaly, greasy creep, kind of like Toad.

Quicksilver I kind of get because he definitely has a sort of anime vibe to him, but it kind of works since he looks like such douchebag, and Quicksilver is a pretty big douchebag.

 

[Shocky]

Holy shit, they might have leaked Apocalypse's Celestial Ship. This movie is either going to be the best CBM or a colossal disappointment.

 

[Shocky]

The Sentinel Mark X looks fantastic. Sounds like Nimrod. The fanboy rage of them not being purple is awesome. Nothing says scary dystopian future like giant robots with purple booties. The marvel movies have really dumbed down the fan base.

 

[justinsayne]

If they made everything look exactly like they did in the cartoons & comics it would look utterly ridiculous, the reason they change the look of the costumes and shit is so they look at least a little more realistic... & to sell more toys & happy meals.

DC is Canceling Nightwing (& a bunch of other titles no one cares about) in April, this makes me , Nightwing was one of only 2 DC books I was still picking up regularly in issues (not counting Vertigo titles).
