Bizarros....Bizarrons? Bizarrians? Anywho, a Bizarro thread.

[Bored at 3:00AM]

Bizarro's characterization changes wildly from creator to creator so we've seen quite a few different versions of ol' chalkface now. Which version works for you best?

Goofy & silly?

Scary & Hulk-like?

Frankenstein with a cape?

Something else?

I guess.. Frankenstein's monster in a cape? I like the Bizarro who isn't evil, just backwards and confused, or confusing, who tries to do good but winds up ruining things. I think that Bizarro can be just as interesting when he's used as the complete opposite of Superman- cruel, irresponsible, and dangerous- but aside the only two times I've seen him that way in the past decade were flips of a coin, and all by Geoff Johns. In "Ending Battle," he sucked. In Infinite Crisis, he sucked. In this last Action arc, though, he was used surprisingly well.

Still, if I had to choose only one version of Bizarro, it'd be the misunderstood monster version.

I really liked Bizarro from the animated series. Not cruel or wicked, but still dangerous and destructive.

I like the silly and the Frankenstein, in different stories. "Super serious scary Bizarro" is retarded. And not in the fun way that he usually is.

[Froggy]

Silly, cause either way he's dangerous

Yeah, they pulled off all the aspects of the character so well in the animated series - His menace, his twisted logic, and his misunderstood nature.

I'll go along with this Bizarro

Animated series for me, but only in small doses.
