I don't see what's so terrible about this new Robin origin. No, it's not as good as the original tim drake origin, but was anyone expecting it to be?

Yeah, the whole court order to stay with batman thing is kind of silly, but whatever. What's more important is how the character is portrayed, and they've done a fine job with that part.

Well it is Superman. ...'Boy. Whatever.

So speaking of Jason Todd...he's dead in Young Justice. Died during the 5 year gap. So yeah...shit goes down in that show.

Also starts up again Saturday I CAN'T WAIT!

Because it sucks harder than a bukkake movie. There was no reason for them to alter it at all, it takes away from his development.

Dark Knight Returns was great. Loved the music.

I am glad Young Justice is back.

Me too! They did not let us down either. The episode started a lot of new story arcs while keeping the happenings of Artemis death relevant.

Cant wait to hear about the JL that left earth, glad that they showed the homage to fallen friends, and glad to see Arsenal. Just a solid episode

So, Grant Morrison's "Multiversity" that was supposed to come out ages ago, is apparently on track for late 2013. First issue to feature The Watchmen.... I mean... the Charlton Heroes.

See, now that's a Watchmen spinoff/tribute/whatever comic that I would actually buy.

Grant Morrison+Multiverse. Instant buy.

Knightfall is seriously 3 volumes. That's kind of a lot.

I did get the Dark knight returns and the animated DVD on Friday. I hope the book lives up to the hype.

No matter how hard I try, I just can't get into Frank Quitely's art style :-\

When I first picked up New X-men way back in the day, I hated it. But it eventually grew on me to the point where I really enjoy it.

I think it was All Star Superman that turned me around. Even went back and reread all the new x-men books, with my new appreciation of his work.

For me, it depends on the kind of story. I didn't enjoy his art on the more "serious" Batman and Robin.... but I loved it in the wacky adventures of All-Star Superman.

I read The Dark Knight Returns, and I liked it. It's not my favorite Batman story, but I enjoyed it.

It was really violent, and I think the best character was Gordon.

Can def see with the Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises took some things from it.

Just finished Green Lantern TAS' first season and checked out the first episode of the second (Guy Gardner debut). This show is awesome and the season one finale was incredibly epic. Gardner's perfect. Really like Aya's development.

I would have no problem this show kicking off a new animated universe, and I would do a CGI New Gods show right after this.

Pssst...that was the midseason break. We're still on season 1.

Oh, okay.

Thought it was kinda short. Figured it was like Korra with very little episodes ordered.

Again, what's the point of an alternate universe, if you're not going to try anything different?

I just bought Under The Red Hood

pretty excited to read it eventually

Deadshot or KGBeast?

Deadshot. I doubt KGBeast would make it on the show. Then again... China White made it.

Gonna bet Roy Harper debuts in S3.

Would really love some KGBeast. One of the more underutilized DC villains in my opinion.

Kind of "dated" now, but he was indeed "cool" back in the day.

Royal Flush Gang was...supernatural?

Dah hell?

More like "super science". They had some sort of machine that would alter probabilities to make good luck for themselves/bad luck for others.

Has the Joker ever considered joining the RFG, because... ya know.

there's an episode of one of the Justice League cartoons where he is the leader of the Royal Flush Gang

Ah yes, I remember that one. The unofficial Teen Titans cameo with all the voices being in.

Considered? In the comics at time he was the leader. Now, not so much.

Yeah, same here.
I enjoyed All-Star Superman, but I think the writing carried the art for me on that one.

It bugged me when I think it was newsarama was doing a year end awards thing and this cover got pretty far in the "best cover" category:

At least I think it was this one. Definitely beat some pretty good covers though, and I was just "HOW?"

I been catching up on Batman because I want to check out the Death of the Family arc.

The whole Court of Owls storyline was pretty "boss". I still couldn't help but think how much better The Night of Owls story could have been in the old universe, though.
