State Your Opinion on A DC Character - Part 3

[BLACKVULCAN]

Totally dig Boomer!! and oh boy whatta name!1!.. but that dude was cool ass when the rogues wanted him and he decided to go straight instead. i loved that dude on the outsiders with Nightwing!! Boomer rocks and is awesome!

 

[SpideyInATree]

I liked what they were doing with Captain Boomerang pre-New 52. I can only imagine what madness they will do with the character now.

 

[Mystirious]

He's dead

Deadshot handed him over to a Basilisk operative named Grey Lora who's girlfriend he'd killed and it was pretty clear she was going to kill him to death

Which he kind of had coming

I'm sure he'll be back from the dead eventually though. Boomerangs always come back

 

[Anubis]

Well, moving on then.

The Trickster

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I hate both Boomerangs. The elder one for being a dick, the younger one for falling into villainy. Like a dick.

But I like the Trickster. The original, not the younger one. The younger one's a... wait for it... dick.

 

[Anubis]

If anybody else would like to take the thread over, let me know.

 

[Mystirious]

But your doing a good job with it 'Nubsy

I liked Trickster before Countdown he was a fun silly character with wacky gimmicks

Then they made him a bigoted scumbag in Countdown So after that I was glad to see Deadshot blow his brains out

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

the orginal james jesse- Fabo!
the new one -Mannnnnnnn! that dude can get outta here!

 

[The Question]

I really hated that Geoff Johns retconned The Trickster going straight into being mind control. It was actual character development, goddamnit! It he was so boss as a criminal turned FBI agent.

 

[Panthro]

Well, moving on then.

Spoiler

The Trickster

He's pretty cool, especially when Mark Hamill's playing him.

 

[Hound55]

Bi-lateral symmetry..?

 

[Kurosawa]

Original Trickster is great, and Mark Hamill did a great job of portraying him.

 

[Panthro]

Original Trickster is great, and Mark Hamill did a great job of portraying him.

Both in live action and animation. Loved Mark reprising the role for JLU -

FLASH: "Oh dude, when you're done that drink, turn yourself in okay?"
TRICKSTER: "You got me again Flash!"

Great stuff.

 

[Anubis]

Moving on.

"Nobody Understands me..."

VigilanteGreg Saunders

 

[KingMob]

He's awesome. I like most of DC's western heroes.

 

[Kurosawa]

DC's western heroes rock and Vig was kinda the granddaddy of them all. He's cool. That's a character that could easily work today.

 

[Mystirious]

He's got a really fab design. They should have him show up in All Star Western

Both in live action and animation. Loved Mark reprising the role for JLU -

FLASH: "Oh dude, when you're done that drink, turn yourself in okay?"
TRICKSTER: "You got me again Flash!"

Great stuff.

I loved that whole episode

I really hated that Geoff Johns retconned The Trickster going straight into being mind control. It was actual character development, goddamnit! It he was so boss as a criminal turned FBI agent.

It really bugged me that all of that was undone as well

And then they did nothing with the character when they turned him into a villain again. They undid all his character development made him a bigoted dbag and then killed him

Such a waste. I wish that he Heat Wave and Piper had stuck together as a team of reformed rogues

 

[KingMob]

I'm still waiting for Pow Wow Smith to show up in All Star Western.

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

Vig rocks man! i love that whole juxtaposed/ mixing of genres. you know that whole "cowboys and aliens." it seems like nobody does it better than DC. a masked crime cowboy on a motorcycle.thats cool! thats why i dig "Terra-Man" and nobody dont!

 

[Anubis]

Time to Mosey on.

Spoiler

Psshow! Psshow! I GOT YOU! I totally got you!

Shining KnightSir Justin

 

[The Question]

Shining Knight and Vigilante are two characters who didn't really have a whole lot of personality until JLU got their hands on them. They've got a great little bromance going on in that show.

 

[Mystirious]

I love the Shining Knight in Demon Knights and the sir Justin version from JLU

Their both pretty fab

 

[Kurosawa]

Shining Knight got his first real development in All-Star Squadron by Roy Thomas, actually. He's a great character and his Golden Age comics were always on a superior level. Late in his Adventure Comics run he had several stories drawn by Frazetta, and they were magnificent.

[BLACKVULCAN]

Never been a knight guy! Out of time guys don't do it for me.most of em are always pinning about getting back to their own time and besides there are onlycouple people look good on a winged horse and that's chicks like SheRa! Which is probably why I don't like him! Hehe
