Hmm. Bruce was able to use Highfather's Staff?

I didn't even think Batman/Superman was in continuity.

 

Sometimes it seems to go in and out, but for the most part it seems out of continuity

 

It's out of continuity in the sense that it rarely lines right up with what else is going on in the DCU (exception being the OYL arc), but I've never seen anything in it that suggested it wasn't canon.

 

...Supergirl?

 

Set-up to Batman becoming a New God.

And JRK, that's what Ari is saying: Supes/Bats is canon.

 

I looked through it, I bought it, but only becaus eits on my list, and it has nice art. Bekka is hott. RIP

 

What about the Metal Men arc a few issues back?

 

I'm not sure if people are misunderstanding me, but what I said was that I believe it IS canon. It may not always line up perfectly with everything else going on (although I believe it currently has been since since OYL, and it did in the first arc), it's still canon.

 

...

*rereads*

...

Oh. Heh. My bad.

 

They would have to resurrect Highfather first.

 

Nobody has brought up Batman's super anti-darkseid kicks? I still can't believe he drew blood.






Is Dc REALLY trying to make Darkseid a B!tch?!?!?!?!?

 

Use was too strong.

My Spin:

Spoiler

He grabbed the Staff,.. it opened up his mind to see Superman, Superman saw him holding the staff and then crowded light in a place that had no velocity to reach him,.... All Bruce did was hold on.

V.

 

We could account this to Darkseid being weakened, having just regained the Omega Powers and acclimating.

Of course, he still has his physiology.

And once again, Darkseid jobbed.

 

Yeah, that's actually what I assumed too, or something similar to that.

 

This arc here is a tie-in to Countdown and death of the new gods. As I said before in other threads this is the team (Alan Burnett & Dustin Nguyen) that I wish would stay on this book for a while. This has been the best arc so far since Loeb left.

 

In a Universe where Superman can have his Mind written over so easily,..

Where Batman can have his canoned discipline superceded by a case of the Horneys for a woman who's Godly power is a doubled edged sword, (If I understand correctly - She will want to lay with ANY man who wants her strongly enough,... she has no real choice about who arouses her.)

Where Highfathers Staff is the ONLY Item in the fourth world that can Access the Source and Superman was the only one who could go get it? (Oh Come on - Kirby established that there were people on New Genisis and Apoklolis who are on a Par if not stronger than Superman.)

Having Batman be able to Kick and knock down darkseid is a small thing.

 

Some of us are working very hard at our denial and I'll thank you not to add to the burden.

 

Bring back Linda Danvers!

 

meh.
