He's a rumor columnist. That's more than proof enough that he's a scumbag of the worst order. Just because his rumors are about comics doesn't make him any better than the next gossip ****head.Proof?

Why do you put such faith in these people? They are nothing but performers trying to pass themselves off as somehow useful to society. They are not journalists. They are liars and betrayers of confidence. They are, as people, less than you and I.So basically, you're accusing him of making stuff up to make up for lagging traffic is a rumor. Unless you've got actual numbers to show, you're pretty much doing the same thing you're accusing him of: Making **** up.

Statements like these are impossible to prove or disprove. That's when common sense comes into play. Who is he? He's a rumor columnist. What does that mean? It means he has the moral compass of Pol Pot on a bad day.I never said they are journalists, and I never said I put faith in them. YOU on the other hand, said that they intentionally make stuff up for the sole purpose of increasing traffic to their websites. Now, either you can back that up with actual proof, or it exists only as a rumor. Making you just like them.
He says that to cover his own ass! Why, I wonder, does he never cite the words of the actual HEAD GUY AT DC, who said killing Batman and making him a New God was a stupid idea? No, he makes up "behind the scenes" bull**** to make himself feel like he knows ****, and make his readers feel like they've got the "inside track!"He says WB stepped in, so maybe you guys could consider that![]()

I don't know. They let Superman become electricHaven't the WB higher-ups blocked major status quo changes to DC's bigger characters before?


Yeah, and preserving one of their most bankable characters is a damn good spot to pick.You gotta pick and choose your spots, WB![]()

Yeah.Not a shocking thing to say, dude. That's like one of the easiest, safest criticisms of a comic-book character possible.

Rumor mill operators are scum. Case closed.I don't know your point is, what with going on about the integrity (or lack of) of rumor mill operators. You made a statement without backing it up and I called you out on it. Case closed.
