The Official DC Stupid Question Thread....

[CBG]

In the variant cover, he dons a Batman costume.

And solicits say taht Jason is the gun-toting Batman.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I hope that the successor to Batman gets a redesigned costume. It'd kind of suck if they literally just put Bruce's old costume on when all's said and done.

 

[Franklin Richards]

Why do we need another Batman? Can't Nightwing become the Scourge of Gotham?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I think Jason's more suited to being the scourge of anything.

 

[anrrd_2]

i hope joker beats him with another crowbar...never did like that jason todd

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Me, either. But at least he's not an outright villain anymore. He's filling the "loose cannon who kills" role in the Bat-family now.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Yep! I wish he had stayed Red Robin. Love that costume.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Tim's supposedly taking it after Battle for the Cowl. I'll miss Tim's hair.

still...call me crazy but i prefer tarantula in that role.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

You're crazy. I prefer Bane.

idiot roid rage bain? or super intellegent powerhouse bain?t:

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Secret Six Bane. He's weird and creepily attached to Scandal Savage for some reason, but it makes him more interesting than he usually is.

good call....i'm still all about tarantula...i mean think about it. no other "loose cannon who kills" could have gotten away with raping nightwing like thatt:

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Eh, guy-rape is never really taken seriously anyway.

 

[anrrd_2]

tell that to the guy from "deliverence"

 

[Franklin Richards]

and Shawshank.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Let me clarify: girl-on-guy rape is never really taken seriously.

Guy-on-guy rape is more serious than the most serious business on the interwebs.

 

[anrrd_2]

thanks for clarifying

btw, since you mentioned bain...what, if any, is his involvment in BFTC?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Don't know. Probably not much, although we know Battle for the Cowl is going to spill over into Secret Six come May:

 

[Scarecrow_King]

i'm not a fan of bringing Red Robin into regular continuity. i think it worked fine for Kingdom Come, but I think its best if it stayed as an Else-worlds thing.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

also, whats the deal with this British Batman dude? i thought that was Prometheus at first. same helmet.

 

[yenaled]

Knight and Squire

Pick up Batmen of All Nations tpb for a good story about them - can check out the Ultramarine Corps stuff from JLA too.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Red Robin's the one element from Kingdom Come I don't mind seeing in the regular DC universe. Tim's felt sort of stagnant as Robin for a while, but he can't really graduate to anything else because Nightwing is Dick's personal superhero identity and he didn't want to be Batman. Now Red Robin provides him with an alternative to both.

 

[Stallion9979]

I have 2 questions...

1. does anyone know if there is a collected version of the International Batmen arc that happened a few months ago and if so what was the name of it?

&

2. The Flash...ok he has the superspeed thing going on but does that mean he also has some sort of invulnerability going on that im not aware of...I would think that going that fast his skin would burn up and hitting something at that speed would just crush him...so is he in Superman territory with the invulnerabilty thing?

 

[Bnightwing]

Hey TheCorpulent1 is Batman RIP worth the buy?
