They did a pretty cool thing with her and Hope summers destroying the Phoenix force.

And the artwork now is great. The artists that did the latest carnage books were unreal. Too bad it was wasted on a Carnage story.

when did we ever see artwork like that in comics???

I don't count covers. I have countless covers in my HDD, they're often great. I'm talking interiors.

Interiors can often be just as good as that.

Love how you are all talking about Marvel in the DC thread.

As far as the artwork discussion goes, I'm talking the entire industry.

Yeah we're not Nazi's about it.

I have no issue about it, I just found it note worthy.

the interiors in those issues are the exact same type art as that

Some cover artists do interiors. Okay.

A lot of them do interiors. In fact I feel like more often than not, the cover art matches the interior.

Executive producer Marc Guggenheim explains how the Arrow universe can support a presumably more fantastical spin-off, The Flash:

"I think a lot of people are justified in asking 'What does this mean for Arrow in terms of its tone?' And my answer is that the trick that we have – and this is a challenge we've discusses a lot and have an awareness of how to face it head on – is the fact that 'Arrow' is like 'Iron Man' where 'The Flash' will be 'The Hulk.' And just as 'The Hulk' coming out did not change the tone of the Iron Man movies, 'The Flash' will not change the tone of 'Arrow.' We're very cognizant of what 'Arrow' is all about, and I think the Marvel movies demonstrate that each piece of a universe can have its own feel. 'Thor' is consistent with the tone of Thor while 'Captain America' is consistent with the tone of Captain America's character. 'Arrow's' tone will remain consistent much in the same way, and we are looking forward to expanding our canvass a bit. And judging from the announcement, I think the fans are looking forward to it as well."

Boooooo

I like it. Makes sense.

Anything involving more DC characters always has my support.

More examples of good art-

Only the page panel.

Arrow will be getting a whole episode based on the League of Assassins (/Shadows). Merlyn was revealed to have been trained by them. Most interesting.

I should maybe catch up with the rest of season 1. When does season 2 start?

This Fall, not sure the exact date.

Those Spider-Man panels while not bad are about average, compared to all the amazing stuff out there. Sooooooo many great artists out there right now. My god, Ivan Reis. The fact that this guy does what he does, and still manages to meet mainstream book deadlines is a miracle. He is in my opinion, the greatest penciller in comics history. Then there's stuff like X-Force which has been one of the most consistently gorgeous books the last few years. Captain America, Future FoundAtion, Cable, Iron Fist, Punisher, and Wolverine also comes to mind. On the DC side, in addition to Ivan Reis, there's guys like Phil Jimenez and the iconic Jim Lee.

And it's not just the art itself which is great. Scenes are often drawn from more dynamic angles than the straight shot with goofy poses of decades past.

Now there are a lot more artists with unique visual styles than there used to be, and I can understand if some of them aren't your cup of tea. Stuff like Quietly and Yu can be a love it or hate it affair. However to say the art as a whole is bad is just absurd to me. I can't really be kind about it, because I've been reading comics regularly since 1987, and in my opinion, the art today is the best it's ever been by an extremely wide margin.

Season 2 of Arrow starts on Oct. 9.

He was the one Bruce didn't kill in Batman Begins. :lol:

Let there be such a monologue that reveals as much. I will lose my fucking mind.

I would love a Malcolm Merlyn origin story.

So after the Trinity War and the Forever Evil event, it has been announced that the Justice League of America will be moving to Canada and will be called the Justice League of Canada.

Their new base will be somewhere with "Moose" in its name, and a lot of the "action" will take place in Toronto.

This reads like a joke but I'm certain DC would do this.

It's not a joke and they are. They're doing it with the Justice League of America lineup though, rather than the Justice League "proper".

Also Adam Strange is now Canadian, apparently.

I kind of like it personally. Like Baird said it isn't the Batman/Superman/WW team, it's essentially Justice League "C" team (depending on your view of JL Dark) and I always thought Alpha Flight was a fun series years ago until they kind of lost their way.

FUCK THE NEW 52

On top of everything annoying- THEY DESTROYED LOBO.

I "like" the new design but THAT ISN'T LOBO! It's a Twilight-wannabe edgy-Lobo! This whole "edgy" thing is getting ridiculous, it's enough that people like Kayne West and Lil Wayne try to be dark and edgy and now we have comics trying to turn a hulked up Wolverine satire into this.

He looks like Lobo's kid more than Lobo if anything. His new design looks like it was made to hopefully appeal to younger people who are just discovering stuff like that because being dark and edgy became a fad for some reason. I love change in big comics- I adore Superior Spider-Man, I adore Morrisons Batman, I don't mind Affleck as Batman until I see the trailer it's not a big deal at all, I love goth rock/goth culture but this design just seems like it has no reason, Lobo had a unique look.

I was just about to post this.

I think Lobo had a pretty distinguished look before. I'm not sure why they really needed to update it.

The design itself isn't terrible I just would've preferred a bulkier Lobo rather than sleeker one and I wish they went with darker hair.

now he looks like some vampire kid that would fit into some Image comic or somebody Blade should fight.

Is this even the final design because I saw a few posted at Newsarama, including an interesting samurai-ish concept.

I think so. The samurai-ish one was better than this.
